I decided to get things going with my rebasing by putting some recent acquisitions onto round bases. While I don't have plans for a Darkling Covens army as of right now I am well on my way when that time comes. I also took an evening to count all of my Aelf models that are being rebased during the cold winter months that are coming fast. In total, I have 954 individual Aelf models and thanks to a bit of friendly encouragement, I will add more to ensure I have over 1000 Aelves by mid next year.
I am also very excited to be helping with Battletome: The End Times creator Alexander Nygård of Fjordhammer with some key battle pictures with my newly rebased Aelves. Hopefully, my photo skills will do this project justice.
Outside of rebasing units for specific battles, I decided to rebase my Heros first. I will be sticking with the expected sizes for the Heros but for the older named compendium Heros, I will be upping the size a bit just to give them the presence they deserve on the battlefield. While they will not be used as their older named representations they are still fantastic models that feel right being on slightly larger bases.
With rebasing in full swing I finally got around to painting my Orion Model I have had for a while now. While I am a bit sad that I never fielded him in The World That Was I am still happy I held on to him as he is a great looking model and it was great putting a brush on an Aelf model once again.
My last bit of Hobby has been purchasing all of the models I need for my Adepticon 2018 Army. I have about half of what I need so far and in a few weeks, I will have the rest on my Hobby desk. I plan to crack into that project before the end of December and I plan to do a small article series as the project comes together so expect a lot of With Aelves in the future. Be sure to come back Friday as I continue my "Life Lessons and Wargaming" article series, until then, Happy Hobbying.
