When I started this army, I no longer wanted to pay any respect to official colour themes or paint fur in the usual black - grey - brown. I also love purple but never had the chance to do anything with it.

This is the first time I play & paint a non-GW game. I started this army early september 2011. My idea is that no matter what kind of crazy colour you choose to paint your army, if you do a descent job and paint coherently, even crazy coloured models will look believable.

I've made some new photos, painted some new models and I'm about to replace all the old photos with new ones.

Kaya's broken arm, not so much.

The colors are certainly different. Not in a bad way, must be something really freaky in the water to make wolves purple. When I start doing my own Circle models, I'm planning on doing a more Autumn theme rather than the summer theme that they have going in the example pics.

agreed on the broken arm, before I ever pose a mini, I try to emulate the pose myself if it looks at all iffy. Try to emulate her pose with the arm holding the staff.

Thanks for all replies!

Let me just explain the reason why Kaya's arm is not normal. I think there must have been something wrong with my model, at least her arm and the body didn't fit properly. Also I thought the joint was very weak, so I glued it in that weird position to increase the surface for glue. I really hate when models fall appart.

I want to get the other Kaya models too, so maybe then I get models that fit better together.

I think Circle Orboros are quite evil. At least compared to Warhammre Wood Elves. Circle are more of a mix between beastmen and wood elves.
