Moar Dark Eldar!

Dark Eldar love continues!

Here’s the first of my Archons. I painted this guy back in April for a painting competition. I was quite pleased at how well the agonizer came out. The cloak, not so much…

I have another in production that will be carrying a blaster.

Next are my first two completed warrior squads. Unfortunately the warrior kit only comes with 1 blaster and I need multiple so I’ll just use shredders as fill-ins.

I’ve been taking advantage of the insanely beautiful weather Irene left behind to prime some units/vehicles. I have a raider, venom, hellion pack (beastmasters), and haemonculus on the table for completion.

Stay tuned.

Dark Eldar Project

4 Comments

Well I’ve been a busy bastard for the last several weeks. I decided to knuckle down ad get behind the Dark Eldar project I was developing since December.

I have not pinned down what I want to play with but it’s drifting towards an assault variant with fire support. I think I’ll run them like Daemons sans the random crap and the suckage.

The only real problem I’m having with this army is transporting it. I have nothing sensible to use to carry these vehicles and I have a SCORE of 40mm monsters that do not play well with the GW transport case. Looks like I’m going to have to invest in some Battle Foam.

I’m particularly happy at how the bases complement the paint scheme I choose. I wanted a simple textured dark base that would gel with the (mostly) monochromatic color palate. I recently made some 25mm bases for my infantry.

Here are some samples:

Resin base Début!

I mentioned back in Jan that the reason I decided to create my own bases was to show off two paint schemes that I was proud of. Well, here’s one of them so you can see some of the bases in action!

Since I went with a white scheme I wanted a minimalist base design that would not distract the eye. I installed a magnet into the bottom of the Ravager so I could mount it on top of an acrylic rod.

I’ll be posting more Dark Eldar stuff shortly. This paint scheme is easy-mode!
