Resurrected

It's been a hell of a long time since I painted anything.
I dusted off the brushes (literally) tonight and started back on my rainbow elves.
It felt goooood.

welcome Home Stranger

now what's the story about your rainbow elves?

 

[Avelorn]

Hey, welcome back!! Not a bad start.

 

[Torn blue sky]

Welcome back =)

 

[BarstoolProphet]

You painted stuff, once?
I did not know that.
Welcome back to painting.
Long may it keep you alive.

Thanks everyone.

Wiccanpony, it's really just an elaborated pun.
They are Warhammer "High" Elves.
They all wear tie dye tunics.
Their war banners are all Greatful Dead Posters.
Instead of a Repeater Bolt Thrower thy have a Philly Blunt Thrower.
Instead of White Lions of Thrace they have White Rabbits of Grace (Slick).
It goes on. I've done a unit of spears so far and I'm nearly done with a unit of archers.
I started on the blunt thrower and a chariot.

So, is it like riding a bike? Returning to painting, I mean.

It's been even longer since I rode a bike so not sure....
I don't think I've forgotten anything, though if I did, how would I know?

I will say one thing: It's as addictive as ever. I walk by the desk and think "oh, I'll just touch up this little thing I see" and before I know it more than an hour has passed.

I originally thought they were going to be gay pride elves, when he said rainbow elves.

I like the rainbow effect, I think it goes with all the magic and mystic effect of elves. Good job!

gay pride elves

That seems redundant to me....

 

[Torn blue sky]

Must suck being a gay ninja though, it's not like they can shout "We're here! We're queer!" at the gay pride parade. Now that would just make them shit ninjas.

 

[vincegamer]

That's why I'm not doing wood elves or dark elves.
Can you imagine a dark elf assassin in dayglow fuscia?

Luckily they can slip in and out without being noticed...
