Decent Dark elf team but either lacks linos or blitzers. Actually more than decent.

If you cannot stall out for an 8 turn drive to score with dwarves then you need to go and play canasta with your dad..if you can find him.

Their website says there's 17 models that they sent off to be printed and cast, so they likely have the full team, but the pic don't show the blitzers, unfortunately.

They are beautiful -- I'd get them for sure if they have full positionals.

Yeah, looking at their facebook pictures, the ones on the website are missing the blitzers. They have WIP blitzers on the facebook pictures posted.

Hello friends!
If you're interested, you can read a short interview about the team of dark elves from Mk1881 Miniatures

Article in Russian:
http://blodgercorner.blogspot.ru/2013/1 ... es_11.html

And the article in English:
http://blodgercorner.blogspot.ru/2013/1 ... rwiew.html

The project is really very interesting. We will wait :)

I agree that these figures look good (especially the witches and the Assassin's skull masks) but I do have issues with them.....

Grown men/elfs wearing crop-tops so that they can show off their 6-packs whilst not appearing to wear any shorts looks more mardi-gras-podium-dancer than stab-you-in-the-face-and-enslave-your-women-and-children dark-elf, to me.

I really want an evil "Dark" Elf team, but these guys just ain't dark.... :(

I agree - other than the Assassins and Witches, the others would make a nice Pro Elf team.

They have pro elfs in the works also. Although I would prefer full face masks than th half face masks shown. An easy fix though.

I like. Looking forward to seeing the prints.

Will love to but Trollforged is booked for a long time by Impact. I hope I will get some room to have them cast in plastic.
Capacity by trollforged seems to limit production options...

Is MK1881 a collaboration with Greebo?

Greebo's art (scroll up and compare it to the Blitzer image posted by Shteve0)

Definitely now not interested in anything they will make now or the future.

Yep, I thought they must be the partner mentioned bottom of p.9 on the Greebo thread, but obviously not.
Lost all interest in these now.

First I saw of these was them being shared by Rolljordan on Facebook.

Personally I lost a bit of interest in Greebo when I wasn't paid for use of my norse on their website.
Just saying.
