Great video! Love the humongous sized cup of tea :) The elves look cool and came out well - especially as you slogged over them to get them painted up! :):)
Got to quench that thirst lol. Thanks man, big compliment from a painter as good as you 😀. I have to say I am never doing that again it nearly killed me, gives me the shivers thinking about it.
Hey man :). Ive done a few Hammers of wrath in the past but I only have 7 total. Not sure what to do though I have so many ideas. Finish my hammers of wrath army. Vanyar from war of wrath or even Turin, Beleg and the elves of Nargothrond. So many choices!
Currently painting up 850 points of Loth for the next tournament. Batch painted 13 Haldir's elves in the slowest paintable scheme I could possibly think of and that in itself was enough of a slog, let alone 40..... Seeing you suffer has renewed my motivation to make myself suffer once again 🥳
@@jmaccsarmiesofArda Galadriel, Haldir and Rumil with a few knights, sentinels, court guard. Running wood elves with spears for the bowman and then 17 regular guys with shields. Might have to change it up when the players pack and missions get released as if contest is one Galadriel is useless. Also may need to drop Rumil for a mounted captain to get a march in. Model count 47, 15 bows. Practice games have been good results so far 😎
Really cool color sceme! Good job painting all of these! Honestly I think you're not crazy for having 40 of Haldirs Elves and 24 plastic Galadhrim. 1. it looks amazing in your collection. Especially Haldirs Elves are stunning. For me the made to order elves are too expensive, but if you really love them an can afford them, there you go. Shouldn't be an argument, but if you sell this army one day it could be really worth a lot of money. 2. If you play a Lothlorien army on 1000p you can honestly play tons of elves, especially if you don't bring Galadriel or Celeborn, just Haldir, Rumil, Orophin and Captain. Fill each warband and you have a lot of numbers with elves, which are all F5 and the shooting hits also really hard. All magic resistant too and minimum courage 5 which such numbers on the table 3. Such massive army painting videos are fun and quite motivational for others people like me to get their armies finished 💪 Keep it up! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Thank you man! Yeh I bought one set of the made to order then found my old army the next day so I ended up with far to many lol. I've never sold an army yet I am a massive hoarder 😆. That's a great idea for an army list, I think I might try that next big 1000pt game I do it sounds really fun! Glad you enjoyed it! Love Germany 🇩🇪
@@jmaccsarmiesofArda Yeah I'm like you a massive hoarder. Maybe we should sometimes sell some minis we definitely will not paint oder will not play. Holding on to everything one ever bought is definitely not healthy haha 😂 Especially with miniatures if one buys every month new stuff. The Galadhrim "Horde" Army is definitely competitive. Elves in general have a very strong profile. F5 S3 D6 with shield C5 and elvenblade for 10p is very good. So if you spam those Elves with solid F6 heroes like Haldir and his brothers and cheap Captains you get a terrifying army. At 1000p you can get 58 models for example. 58 heavily armored Elves! 😍 Would love to go to Scotland! Will do it for sure. It's on my holiday list haha 🏴
@@CapitanCorner Yeh I really should sell some stuff. I have like 4 Warhammer fantasty armies just sitting there in case that ever comes back lol. I am definatly going to try that army. Do you think it would work at 800pts as well thats the main number we use in the UK? If your ever in Glasgow let me know and we can get a game :P
@@jmaccsarmiesofArda Yeah sell Warhammer Fantasy stuff and buy more MESBG Models 😂👌 Of course it works on 800p. I played a lot of tournaments over the last 4 years. In general high model count and high fight value is a winner! Especially if your complete army is magic resistant in a meta where magic is growing stronger cause Lady of Light nerf. In Germany we play mostly 500-700p, also sometimes 800p or 1000p Actually a lot of weird numbers for example the German Championship is 622p, because 2022 😂🤷♂️ I played a similar Rivendell army just with Erestor and Captains and it worked great. Galadhrim Captains are also better cause they cost 5p less for no reason, same profil. So actually you could not play Orophin for example and another captain with elf bow or shield instead. If i visit Glasgow, i'll for sure text you and we play a game ✌️
800p Lothlorien, 48 models, 11 might, 18 elf bow shots Haldir 4 Galadhrim, elf bow, spear 1 Galadhrim, shield 1 Galadhrim, banner 6 Galadhrim Rumil 4 Galadhrim, elf bow, spear 1 Galadhrim, shield 6 Galadhrim Orophin 4 Galadhrim, elf bow, spear 1 Galadhrim, shield 6 Galadhrim Galadhrim Captain, elf bow 3 Galadhrim, elf bow, spear 1 Galadhrim, shield 6 Galadhrim If you have Haldirs Elves and you don't want to glue spears at their backs or magnets with shields. I would recommend drop 3 Elves and give all shields except the archers, they keep their spears. Have fun 😎
Great work! I really love that green armor. My Galadhrim look a bit like your old ones in silver and blue, except without any purple. Mine all have brown hair, as well. In part for authenticity, and part because I don't like painting blonde hair! Galadriel and Celeborn were my exceptions in golden blonde and silver-grey.
Awsome man! I do love those old colours. Perhaps I'll resist that scheme one day. I know what you mean blond can be a nightmare to paint but lucky you now have a lore excuse 😄
What's your list for this army? and how many points? Great video i have 90 of these haldirs elves and definetly chuckled at the " its going to be an absolute slog getting these done" haha Definetly subscribed.
Thanks man! Oh wow 90 I do not envy you. I dont think I could get the willpower to paint that many again it nearly killed me. What points are you interested in ?These are my main army at the moment and I've used them at different points levels. I will admit I've not got round to doing a mega battle yet but I do have a 1,000pt tournament in Jan. If you are intersted in 800pts my Scouring of stirling vlog video has my 800pt list in the description and I won all my games with it. :)
@@jmaccsarmiesofArda No problem mate. Hands down best sculpts in my opinion. Couldn't get any as a kid so adult me with 90 is grinning. I have a small force of 500pts painted. Just binge watching all ya videos atm, ill suss that video next. Thanks heaps. Keep up the good work man!
I love the diving deep into Tolkien lore to decide on colors :O
The tea drop was hilarious 🤦♂️😂

Cheers man!
It ain't a J Macc video if a paint bucket dosn't tip
I dont want to know how much money Ive wasted spilling these washes :(. I am very sad when it comes to LOTR and choosing my armies lol.
Thumb up for these elves . Beware with your dangerous jokes ...
Cheers man was a old video but had to fix the audio!
