Hobbit SBG - Wood Elves Army


The Hobbit SBG Logo
“Yes, they are elves," Legolas said. 
"and they say that you breathe so loud they could shoot you in the dark."          
Legolas, The Fellowship of the Ring, The Lord of the Rings

LotR SBG : Fall of the Necromancer

The last few weeks I have been on a mission to clear some of my back log of painting... I know I am never going to get through it all, but at least I have made good headway!


Below is my 1500 point Wood elf army, with Thranduil, Legolas foot and mounted as well as 6 warbands of wood elves complete with command.

I still have loads of armies to paint, but I am getting there slowly but surely!


Hope you enjoy!
