"How typical that the humans should rely upon crude technology to protect them. How fitting that we, the Dark Eldar should kill them where they feel safest."
-Kraegeth of the Slaughtered Heart
For my ongoing Coven forces I wanted to make some Infantry in theme with the rest of the Grotesques and wracks and other abominations I'm fielding. By mixing in a lot of Wyche and Hellion heads as well as wrack arm bits for the Sybarites and "Steel Crow Tribe" helmets from MaxMini, I was able to accomplish a unique and slightly more disturbing feel for my warriors.
There are 3 Full 10 Man squads. Each with a Dark Lance, Blaster and Sybarite. Unpainted images can be seen HERE
Painting Wise, I went with the same scheme that can be seen on my Feathered Scourges with the addition of more OSL effects on the weapons.
Those look spectacular - I especially like how the 'crow tribe' style heads turned out! Brilliant work, man!
ReplyDeleteI congratulate you on the work, it would emphasize the oxides in weapon and armor, I am charmed with them. A greeting.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I also congratulate you. It has given me some inspiration for my own dark eldar. A parting word.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! :) It felt good to finally get these guys off the table and make room for new projects :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing. I always used to put Dark Eldar as the last choice of minis I'd want to paint, but I'm starting to see the appeal when I see how beautiful and dark they can look. Would you mind if I share some of your work on my blog if I accredit everything, post links back here?
ReplyDeleteThanks Shay, yeah go for it. Just link back to here :)
