I have been busily 3D-printing elves over the last couple of days, and have been doing some kitbashing and converting with it. It turned out that the file I'd been using for the alternative Maiden Guard, although it had an Everqueen miniature, lacked a command group. So I got P, who has been learning Blender, to make me a standard bearer's arm, and cobbled together a champion and standard bearer. But I had no idea what to do for a musician; so one of the units of Maiden Guard is awaiting one. In the meantime I printed some Sisters of Avelorn, who are Maiden Guard specialist archers, using magical bows and whose role is to act as scouts and rangers, and hacked up my original metal Maiden Guard champion to make the High Ef Noble who will be leading the 500 point force:

| That massive sword being weilded by the Noble is magical, which is why she's single-handing what should really be a greatsword... and who's that next to her? Why, it's the Everqueen herself! |
Anyway, with the first 500 points nearly complete - I'm just waiting for a musician and another Sister of Avelorn - the next task is, of course, painting them. I'm going to use the relevant pages from the Uniforms and Heraldry of the High Elves book:
 |
| Lots of green and white, which is a nice combination |
 |
| Not sure if I'll water down the theme with units that aren't Maiden Guard, but if I do this is great |
