After hastily arranging a date for the next battle between myself and my good friend Dean, I had just eight days to prepare for a Siege!
I had some undercoated High Elf troops and some yet to be built.
These included:
1 Hero on Eagle (and I only have the plastic Lord on Griffon model)
1 Mage (to be built, plastic)
40 Archers (all plastic)
16 “to be” Shadow Warriors (plastic)
17 Spearmen (plastic – to be rebuilt)
8 Cavalry (plastic, to be re-built and used as Dragon Princes)
No small task, but i like a challenge.
KISS would be the order of the day – Keep it Simple, Stupid.
1) Build on day1/2, start painting. Stick to a basic colour palette of White / Blue / Silver
2) Day 3-6 – painting.
3) Day 7 – seal (varnish or dip)
4) Day 8 – basing – (simple – stone and grass)
5) play a game!
Here are the pics after one/two evenings….
and at the end of two evenings…
I will add more posts over the next few days….
The Old Giant 
Good luck! I really enjoyed making a High Elf army, but it took me a lot longer than 8 days…
…looking forward to seeing how you get on so thanks in advance for posting updates!

Wow, only eight days to paint that lot will certainly be a challenge. I’m looking forward to vicariously enjoying your progress.
Really having to cut it down to a bare 26 hours of mainly evenings. Just seeing what i can get done. As it stands, should be finished to a basic tabletop standard by the end of Friday ready for the game at Warhammer World on Saturday!
