DE army (various units)
« on: March 9, 2008, 01:57:26 AM »
here is what I have so far for my dark eldar. I painted some various types of units so I could get a decent picture of how an entire army would turn out.

















Im pretty happy with the way they turned out. I love using the darkened areas for contrast, its easy to do especially on the wych armour because there are so many crevices. Now im wondering how i'm going to paint the vehicles, I'm thinking white and purple but im not too sure yet...

Wow, very awesome dude.

They look really "animated" / stylized in a sense, as though theyre right out of a comic book.. Really nice looking. Your paint scheme makes the warriors look pretty cool (for once), like very elegant executioners... so, all in all congrats on making ugly models look "right".

The paint job is the most important thing on a mini. It doesn't matter how "cool" a mini may look. One can always ruin it with a bad paint job.

Back on topic, your DEs look very good. I like that used a rather light paint scheme. It distinguishes them from most DE armies I know.
Taking a very long break.

Well, the proof is here. As much as I'd like to argue that ugly models make a difference (I STILL say they do), you certainly have a good point.

Thanks guys, I'm looking forward to painting many more like this. Gotta finish up my warriors and then maybe i'll get some bikes and a raider or something like. Of course, I'll have the time after I finish my midterms this week   ;D   lol I better not paint too much before or I could get some bad marks
