Today I bring you one of the first archers posed. We're thinking of placing them in two rows, with the first row kneeling and the second standing, ready to shoot.

Since they're elves, I don't think having too much variation in their poses would look very good, as it would seem disorganized. And precisely what we want to convey is discipline.

What do you think?

Totally agree. Uniformity in pose. Few different heads to give some variety

I agree, military discipline works best for elves. Any chance of some …enchanted magical flaming bows/arrows option for these lovely ladies? ;)

Jordan

Wow! Looks great. Would love to see an enchanted arrow also ;)

Zurujin

Is the arrow not allready burning?

We've added flames to the tip of the arrow and two gems to the bow. No previous bow has these gems. We think the most elegant way to represent magic is to illuminate from the gems and the arrow. We could sculpt more exaggerated flames, but in my opinion, it's too destructive sculpturally .

Aces High

Agree. However the knees look reversed for a kneeling shooter. 🤔

Malcolm Cooney

I agree that there shouldn't be too much variation in the poses, for the elves to look organised. Different heads would be welcome, thanks.

De las pocas veces que arreglaría cosillas. Primero la pose, no es la lógica, las rodillas deben estar al revés. De esa forma el arquero tiene el centro de gravedad muy avanzado y es poco estable. Lo segundo, tampoco me gusta que a los elfos se le añadan llamas (flecha normail) o demasiadas cosas. Las gemas como adorno, ok, en plan magia en el arco, tampoco. Simplemente son unos arqueros cojonudos por su puntería y disciplina. Han tenido cientos de años para aprender a apuntar. Lo que si estoy de acuerdo es con el sentido de que sea algo muy cuadriculado, muy militar. Como ejemplo, los arqueros elfos de la peli de las Dos Torres en el Abismo de Helm. Aunque tres filas no tiene mucho sentido, quizás si que pudiérais hacer una pose de rodillas, una de pie tirando y otra de pie preparados para tirar, por si alguien quiere o necesita de esas opciones. Saludos. (menudo tochaco jejeje)

Regarding the topic of the knees, just so you know, both shooting positions are correct. One aims for greater stability, and the other for a greater range of fire, for example, when an enemy is moving. But don't worry, we've documented both uses, so you can relax :) https://www.revista-airelibre.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/foto-a.jpg https://www.revista-airelibre.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/foto-b.jpg Now we need to pose one archer standing up to adjust the positions of the two and make sure we don't have any collisions. And that will depend on the final position of the leg. We're more interested in this support because it will allow us to slightly shift the center of gravity outward, giving us probably more space for the archer in the second line. We also had this other option: https://www.revista-airelibre.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/portada.jpg But the 20mm bases don't allow it, even though it would have been the one we chose without this limitation. The man in the photos is Andres F. Verde, a 17-time champion of Argentina in traditional archery.

Yo hace mucho tiempo modifiqué miniaturas para hacer "arqueras elficas", pero viendo estos diseños de seguro esa unidad será con estas figuras.

I like the pose, only things that alarm me are the headdress/mask, which feels like it’s just floating without anything to hold it in place. Also where’s her backup weapon! She needs a sword or a knife for sure.

En cuántas piezas se separará? Se me ocurre que esos torsos femeninos serían geniales para añadir variedad de género en las tropas... 🤔

Am I dumb I saw the release but this model doesn't appear to be in the picture.

Dan

Is this miniature in this month's release?
