Hi guys, We are back with the second regiment for our following kickstarter. Albus Custodes, are elves with heavy armour and great sword. Once again, our models are high compatible among them. This is the most difficult dutty, but we are happy with the result. We hope that you like it. Albus Custodes
Dragon Guard with great sword, and Albus Custodes with great axe and dragon cape.
Come on guys! leave your feedback, because now we can do some change! Thank you!

Tx Mottdon!
Of course that you can use them as you like.
Do you think that we should change something?

I'm loving your Sisters of Seren models! I'm planning to pick up the Congregation of Serens here within the next couple months (once I'm ready to start a Sisters of Sigmar warband, I've got a bunch of others in line in front of them first).
I'd leave the elves the way they are I think they look great!

I think the models look great. So did you remove the scaled cloaks?

Tx Mottdon! Of course that you can use them as you like. Do you think that we should change something? Honestly....I can't see anything that I'd change! (And that's rather rare with me!) The poses are great, the shoulder armor is perfect and segmented properly, the rest of their garb is adequately light and would allow fluid movement that an elf would require, and the swords look very imposing, while keeping a lightweight grace that they'd tend to carry. These are perfect for rank n' file models, though I might make a Champion model with more aggressive/dynamic pose, if you decide to make one. Great work! P.S. - I'd be happy to paint a set up for you!

I like the overall look, and he will fit in quite well with your other models, but my biggest complaint would be the actual banner/standard/stave. Before I read at the end of your post, I didn't actually know if he was a Standard Bearer or a Warrior Mage of some sort.
Maybe if the cross piece was a tad longer and an actual length of "fabric" attached to it. It could hang in the middle or off to either side (or both). Personally, I think that this is a chance for you to imbue this model with much dynamism. The rest of your models all look ready for action, while this one appears to only be watching and pointing other's to it. The addition of a banner could indicate movement in the character and add a whole new element to your troop.
That's my critique. I hope this doesn't offend you, but when someone asks me what I think, I usually like to give them my first impression and what I think could help take it to the next level. Keep up the good work!

For me it is the length of the ‘pole’. It should be taller so the banner can be seen more easily by others (whether friend or foe). This then also has the added advantage of allowing us to attach a paper banner if we want.

It's a good looking model on its own; I agree with others that in a unit as part of a fantasy army, you'd want a longer banner pole to make it stand out more. I like the pointing pose - it's rare and refreshing to have a model that's got an empty hand, rather than clutching yet another weapon/shield/skull.
It looks like the armour is heavier on the left side of the body (shoulder pad and lower torso "skirt") - is that because that's the side that'd be facing the enemy when fighting?

Thanks guys for your comments!
Sedge, you are right. One of the sides is much heavier for that.
Knoffles, Roman Aquilas are not too tall, any way, plastic resing is not like poliurethane resin, you will be able to do any conversión.
Mottdon your comments are welcome, thank you for them.
Reming guys that our Command Squads are extra bits, so finally you will glue them as you like it. So you will change the pose, the pieces, getting more dinamic or static miniatures, etc.
Thanks guys!

Looking at your models again, I'll definitely be wanting some Dragon Guard when they're out - I'd use them as High Elf White Lions (which I've never liked the look of) - the Dragon Guard have a much better aesthetic.
