Wardancer Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) Dark Elf Darkshard Dark Elf Darkshard by MWardancer, auf Flickr These elite crossbowmen are the backbone of Dark Elf artillery. Covered by tower shields Darkshards wear down enemy lines with a rain of dark arrows that never seems to cease. So better watch out where you send your shiny warriors! Customization Notes: - the crossbow and quiver are a Koruit design from China (= no 1) - the arrow is from Brickarms, I drilled a hole into the crossbow (=no 2) - the cape is from Cape Madness (= no 3) - orignal LEGO helmet modified (=no 4) - wrist armor is from Brickwarriors (=no 5) - shield is make from stickers with an extra piece in the middle to cover as much of the seam as possible, the shield can stand on its own - the minifig is taken from a Chima keychain, a cheap source Combining two stickers is messy work as it leaves a seam, but I wanted to make a new shield with this symbol. The crossbow surely is the centerpiece here, I salute Koruit for that. Edited January 17, 2020 by Wardancer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Retro Posted January 17, 2020 Beautiful photograph. Lovely cool blues and greys. He's not really a baddie, is he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAB Posted January 17, 2020 Very nice. Could you not have used a brickforge helmet or sticker just to make it six! A record surely. :-) Is the crossbow from the Koruit Orcs range? I have some on order but am still waiting for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dark Elves are very rational inside their evil paradigms. They are not chaotically evil, but nevertheless on the destructive side. Their motives are unclear though. World domination maybe. 2 hours ago, MAB said: Very nice. Could you not have used a brickforge helmet or sticker just to make it six! A record surely. :-) Is the crossbow from the Koruit Orcs range? I have some on order but am still waiting for them. Yes, from the new Koruit Uruk-Hai. They have great bows and quivers as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
