Thank you :D

I updated the picture of the sorcerer because the last one was pretty bad.
Also, how do I edit the title of the thread?

Edit your first original post and simply change the title there. As for the models, there are looking superb. You have a very unique and distinctive style which makes them stand out beautifully.

Nice BSB conversion and wonderful army. I was a bit sceptical about the different colours of the gg units, but the longer I look at the group picture, the more I like it. I was really surprised how well the dark elf sorceress blends in, with your slight conversion and the wood elf colours.

Holy crap those are some great looking minis! I'm digging the color scheme its just enough differnt than the average autumn theme and it really pops! Kudos!!! I'm very envious of your basing technique. I'm having extreme difficulty coming up with a method for basing that looks like a realistic forest floor. Do you think you could provide a brief run down / tutorial? I can't get the nice dark but still textured earthy color you have on your bases. My browns keep coming out far too light and fake looking after drybrushing a few times to get the grit texture to pop. I'm going to have to pick up one of those gw basing kits for the leaves! About how many minis could you do out of one kit?

Seriously, great minis!

Thank you :D

The bases are very simple: I use white undercoat, paint scorched brown on the edges and then just a thin coat of scorched brown over the sand. Then add some flock/leaves or whatever you want. I can take some pictures next time to show you.

The treeman is very nice as are your other minatures. I really like the different shades of the bark. The eagle rider (and those flyer bases) are simply amazing and you even put some fish in the sea :D. What did you use for the riders legs? Gladerider legs and green stuff?

I was thinking about a conversion for a unit of war falcons, but could not yet figure out what legs to use...

Those are nice eagles. Bravo on the bases.

The legs are from a wild rider model, it actually fit pretty well on the eagle :D

This is art. Its so beautiful.

I love the white highlighting/drybrushing, it just makes everything pop, on top of those lovely color combos. Its like you put them in photoshop and turned up the gamma/saturation!!

Bravo. A+

If I was facing this army, i would just sit there and say kill me. Its an honor!
