Whoa, did you check out the LVO preview with the new Lumineth Realm-lords? It’s no secret that I have a knack for pointy ears, and I really adore the new models, especially the Phoenix Lord Light of Eltharion and Teclis’ mindbending pose. Can’t wait to see the full range.
Years ago I painted a Lothern Seaguard just for fun. I wanted to explore a very bright and “sunny” paint scheme based on a white basecoat, with yellow and gold spot colours. It never turned into a real project, but I had this model in the back of my display case for years and thought the new reveal would be the perfect occasion to dig it out and take a better picture of it.
What do you think? How do you like the Lumineth Realm-lords aka Pointy Aelves?

He has painted several armies and countless warbands and Kill Teams over the decades, and founded Tale of Painters in 2011. When he's not painting miniatures incredibly slowly, he's testing the latest paints, tools and kits with German precision and a no non-sense attitude.
I've never been a big fan of pointy ears (I've always preferred pointy beards) but I have to admit the new Lumineth preview has triggered something in me that could possibly change my mind. Funny thing, I bought a Loremaster of Hoeth before the release of Cities of Sigmar so maybe Eltharion has spoken to me through my dreams.
