A hut in the heart of the swamp...

With my dark/wood/high elves (or Aelfs or whatever) getting steadily more and more swampy 
I decided to just go whole hog and make them Swamp elves.
Yeah it has probably been done before but fuck it, not by me.

When I start a new project I like to throw the idea at my non-wargaming friends to see what they come up with. One of them game me
"I don't know some sort of treehouse?"
This garbled panicy response triggered something in my brain.

Some kind of Baba Yaga swamp hut. Yes I can almost see it now...

My highly detailed planning stages for new projects are the very stuff of legend.

From humble beginnings (the middle of a roll of selotape) the project is born.
I coated the outside in milliput and scratched vague wood surface patterns into it.
Huzzah!


Once cured I added a door and a couple of windows.
Now it is starting to look like it is supposed to be some kind of dwelling.


More on the way.
