Updated Queen's Guard

Hi everyone,

I am in the process of preparing the files for July's Radiant Elves, and after reviewing the models of the Queen's Guard, I unfortunately found them lacking.

As the only Radiant Elves female unit, I feel they deserve more graceful miniatures, and therefore I decided to sculpt them from scratch, and base their updated design on the Elven Princess.

You can find images of the new models below (the older ones are here if you want to compare them).

As an additional note, Patron Jazion pointed out that the King's Guard are not wielding their great swords correctly, so I have also fixed that. And although I am not updating all the rendered images, you'll receive the corrected models.



And you can find a 3D view of one of the updated models here.

Updated Queen's Guard

It is a bit late for this month's elves, but yes in the future I should try to offer the option of Standard and Musician (and a champion, maybe?). In terms of resources, adding all the options to three different units, may mean sacrificing a fourth unit, so only releasing three units per month (plus heroes, as always). I will ask the other patrons at some point if this would be the preferred option.

I have a question regarding adding a standard/musician. Would it decrease the variety of poses/models in the set if you added these types of models? I'll use the Queen's Guard as an example. Currently you have 5 different poses. Would it be reduced to say 3 to add the standard and musician?

Unfortunately it is a bit too late to add more minis, as I need to close the set and start working on the next one. But yes, I should add Standard and Musicians to all my future (and some of the older) sets.

They look great! I'm in the middle of printing this same unit from another sculptor and I'm thinking I need to stop and wait! Although... what would you think of adding a standard and musician? :)
