High Elf Silver Helm

This is one of the two images of my "redesigned" Silver Helm knight. I expanded the barding to the back of the steed using parts of the front barding and adding some green stuff. I have also added a crest to the helmet (greenstuff again) and two banners attached to the back of the knigh. My aim was to achieve the look of the heavy armoured elven knight and I hope I did that good enough. What do you think?

I really like this one. The colors fit perfectly and it's painted very well.

You were asking for comments on your figures...so heres one : ) First of all I think the conversion was a very good idea and has worked very well. This is a far more intimidating knight than the one upon which your conversion is based. Painting wise, well if this is for gaming then it is very cool indeed. The flowing barding on the horse is very well highlighted and is very dramatic, drawing the eye and giving an innate sense of movement. The metallics are also done very well, but I would advise working some watered down dark brown ink, or dark metallic into the recessed areas of the gold to make the lighter areas seem more impressive. This would have been an 8, but the fact that you achieved your objective with the conversion very convincingly pushes this up to a 9. If you want any other advice feel free to ask. Nice mini!
