Sorry squinty, here my test Dark Eldar

[warsmith]

Hi everone

Just paint this test model (be part of the army of course) for my new Dark Eldar army (see Gus, I can paint stuff beyound Marines )











I've went for blue as it a colour I never use on a whole army in regard to armour, just the odd model like a Librarian. Not sure how long it took, pretty much how ever long the new Predator's movie lasted for. Due to the cold weather the Wash where taken agies to dry.

Pretty happy. Base is going to be swampy like, would like to add a longer version of stastic grass. Hear GW will release it (see Phil Kelly Space Wolves) just unsure when. THen I will be trying out GW water effect for the first time on the green area of the base.

Should have the model with me on Thur, just the light not the best right now. If I am not play Aj on Thur, should hopeful be building my Dark Eldar models as it'll be my only time right now due to real life stuff & getting ready for the Throne of Skulls.

Just started up the Dark Eldar project again. After painting the blue armour it done my eyes in a bit as near half way I had to keep taken a long break after each blue stage & done my head in a little bit.
Took a long break but now come back after getting the army out (photo below) & notice how little I got to do to finish the army.

But only four models need the blue armour done, there not photos on here.

This was the finish test model done back in Nov



How the Dark Eldar are currently looking









After Throne of Skulls July, going to try bring the Dark Eldar out for a little bit on the gaming front. Just wanted them fully painted before I use them in games as I am not a fan of useing unpainted armies & just sort of put me off a army.
So right now currently painting what I can during free time in the house for the Dark Eldar, or if I am waiting on commission stuff to dry/when I take a little break.

If your on warseer you can find my army log on the Dark Eldar & hope to get some update later this week.

While also work on my Grey Knights when I go into GW along with new Space Wolves stuff for tournaments.

Then by the end of this week will also be starting on my second Battlefleet gothic army, Marines & I got armies on parade display board still to do, have started work on it. Aim to work on Armies on Parade stuff during Sundays until near the time of the comp when be spend as much time needed to finish my display board off.

So yes hobby wise I got a lot on the go, see if I can kept my rep as hobby machine up.

Also though show photo of one of the Raider



Very WIP. Think I might do some really cool base, after seen Nick Bayton Dark Eldar during Throne of Skulls April. He use the big base that come with the Valkyrie & Storm Raven Kits.
Game wise this should not have any effect as it ment to be the hull of the tank unless is a walker.
Other wise if it was the base, end of the day you would not be able to assault the front or back of the Raider.

So try do some really cool stuff for them. Also still got Pain Token to make up, wanting to try do somthing really cool, possible some slaughter Marines base around my own Space Wolves or other chapter .

Thanks everone.

Got a unit of Wych almost done (painting right now), got crew for my Raider/ravenger done & tide up five warriors out of 20.

Aim to get this army finish by the end of the week hopeful.

But right now that good to get a fair few units. I think Fri afternoon will see the small unit of Wych done & out of the way.
THen it the case of getting around to those base for the Raider & pain token.
Since stuff done pretty fast rate, mean I can spare Sunday to get Armies on Parade all planned out since the key building/where all the focuse will be has roughly been built which will help plan the lay out.
