Starter pack used to form an army for the school campaign.
Wanted these to be similar, but different, to the Dark Elves, they are white with blue wash and white highlighting, all metal is silver with a blue wash, then silver highlights.

Heavy Cavalry (last time they were fielded they were scared off by a bunch of Goblin archers, so much for elites)!

Second batch of High Elves, being used by a different player in the school campaign, hence the different banners and shields. :D

I like how you've done the whites. I'm hopeless at painting white, for some reason. It just goes funny when I paint it :-\
The blues on the shields and flag look rather smashing, too.
I use Vallejo Deck Tan in place white on the figure now. It looks like white once painted on but just a little less stark
I used blue ink over white undercoat, then I use at least a two star artists acrylic paint, a no2 brush and two goes at it...

In all honesty these days I try and avoid painting any form of white at all...Never liked it
I use Vallejo 918 Ivory or 884 Stone Grey, as well as Deck Tan, instead of white, when I want a little more warmth. I still use white for some belts and straps.
Good looking figures.
Nice
Really nice,
Love your fantasy armies.
What do elves get high on, I've always wondered?
Culture and overblown operas!
