Hey all, just painted these today and I'm looking for some critisism.


Kind regards, Zoe

Better lighting.

That purple is brilliant, you mind if I ask how it was done?

The colour scheme is:
Army painter alien purple
Druchii violet
Genestealer purple/xereus purple mixed at a 1:1 ratio
Edge highlights with genestealer purple.

Cheers for letting me know. I'm not familiar with the Army Painter range myself, is there a GW alternative to the AP Alien Purple?

The closest is xereus purple I guess.

Ah okay thank you. The models look exceptional so far. Are those Forgeworld Heresy parts you've used for some of them?

EC torso upgrades and the heads.

Thanks for noticing.

I do try

How do you find using the EC Torso and Heads from Forgeworld? Do they go well with plastic kits you used? I was thinking of getting some myself for a small post Heresy EC force I'm trying to build and was curious as to whether it was an option worth pursuing.

Yeah man they work well. Perfect fitting which surprised me as forge world usually feth up so damn much.

When i was mixing my DG upgrade parts with some plastic CSM parts I noticed I liked how the torsos fit onto the plastic legs more than the resin MKIII legs.
