Back with Elves and a New Project!

 It's been a busy time in my life, in a good way. And by that I mean that I am now married! It was a longer journey than any of us expected, I think, thanks to covid, but we got there, and things could not have been more perfect. Even when a grasshopper landed on my wife during the wedding. I mean, we decided to take that as a good omen. Grasshoppers are good signs, right?

Anyhow, I have had time for hobby related nonsense recently, so here it is!

First off, my nephews were visiting for the wedding, and one of them helped me finish off the elf horse archers!


He did a really amazing job! There's bits that need work, but heck, that applies to my own painting too. Maybe even more so. For 10 years old, he's doing just fine.

And for my next project... well, I ended up with a lot more than I initially meant to.

I grew up reading the lord of the rings, literally. My parents read the books to me and my sisters as bed time stories. So it's really surprising that I've never picked any of these up before. I went with the corsairs of umbar because I always found them a bit intriguing, plus they look like they'll be fun to paint! We shall see.
