Here's a team you should be modelling off: (Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie! Oi oi oi!)

Also: note the distinct lack of high heels? There's a reason for that...

I fully agree with some of the above comments. Where I truely find the sculpts wonderful, unique and very close to what I would think of as wood elfish, the poses are awkward. That probably comes down to taste, but with those poses I wouldn't buy them.
Also, I would prefer a mixture of sexes in the team. I don't see the need for an all female woold elf team (or an all male one for that matter). I think with wood elves you can pretty much mix them up quite nicely.

I agree with the others.

I am looking for a wood elf team, but I can't see these fitting the bill. I hope for a team more like the Cyanide vision on the video games (stag horns, facebars, spikes, mohawks & ponytails). Although these are great sculpts, they are not the sort of teams we play in our league as my partner and our daughters play too and they hate the typical oversexed female versions of teams.

I am, however, always interested in new treemen miniatures.

Good luck with your team.

Judging by how well sukubus miniatures does and the relative popularity of the one female vampire thrall from willy, I feel you will do well with this team and highly endorse your creation of it. But defiantly, more action-y poses I think will be appreciated and reach a wider audience.

I dislike the high heal thigh length boots, might work for Dark Elf but not Wood Elves. Sorry to be negative, on the plus side I love the facial expressions and the rest of the models. The laced up jerseys look proper wood elfy, with the hawk/eagle feather ties etc. nice touches :)

I'm a British Freebooter, will play for any team including Undead (I have my own Apothecary). Good rates.

That's an interesting-looking treeman.

Do you have a concept art or a painted/coloured-in mock-up so we can understand some of the parts better?

Looks like that lineman is almost 40mm tall?
