i am planning to use color designs from the anime: Yes! Precure 5 Gogo, and i need some advice for modeling, painting and coloring.

If you don't know much about this anime, go to Wikipedia and search Precure (also other search engines).

I planned to use Eldar Harlequin or Howling Banshees Aspect Warrior because I figured out their hanshin designs and color setting were suitable for them, and the character seemed like more Eldar than Sister of Battle.

according to the anime, there had 5 heroines, and of course they had their own color:

Cure Dream - Pink
Cure Rouge - red-orange
Cure Lemonade - Yellow
Cure Mint - Green
Cure Aqua - blue (Ultramarine blue?)

Here the picture to help you understand the designs:

No offence, great idea but

don't worry, just say your opinion.

*dies*

That's gotta be like the Kawaii version of Sailor Moon.

Are you giving all your Eldar tutus? I've heard of someone doing that.

that's good idea.

i would count them into unique characters since they're legionary warriors.

I fits the Eldar perfectly.

Hey you know you could use the dark elder female torsos with spikes removed and sculpt like a mini skirtish think over their lower torso (if you cant sculpt it shouldnt be such a high ciommision price) and then get some female heads with anime hair or sculpt anime hair i thik the dark eldar have some big haired women heads.then paint in the 5 colours maybe model the actyallu girls/heros to be squad leaders. Im looking forward to seeing this.


If you need anymore help just ask.

Is that have any problem for gender issue?

if you don't give support that's fine.

This is like the desu marines all over...

Hi

You looking to create an army of these, use these as the characters for an army or just model the figures?

Anyway, I would say have a look at the dark eldar and dark elf figures as a possible base - a much larger range of easily changeable figures (just remove the scowl and cross eyebrows!) rather than from the eldar range which is mostly male (bar some guardians and the banshees).

I would do model the figure first because my budget problem.

But thanks. my first thought is use the banshees for their styles (they're good guys), but it would be difficult since they're metal.

the color setting would like this (advises and suggestion welcome):

Dream - pink (blood red + skull white)
Rouge - red/orange (Blazing range)
Lemonade - yellow (Sunbrust yellow)
Mint - green (Scorpion green)
Aqua - blue (Enchanted blue)

I actually came expecting precurse Eldar, from before their fall. This will be painful to look at, and totally appropriate for Eldar models. In my Battlefleet Gothic days, I fielded an entirely pink, purple and yellow fleet of Eldar. Eldar look great in proper Panzee colors. I suggest adding some water to your paints. It lets them bleed into each other and gives you a more pastel effect.

it took me a while to realise where i thought i'd seen this before and i worked it out.... that bad acid trip in 73........

Ha ha. Great Idea. If you ask me the Eldar are wusses so it works perfectly

eldar are not wusses!

they just dont have power armor and black carapace -_-

QFT - eldar dont do suicide charges or stand in the middle of a horde with 5 guys, 20 grenades, and a bolter each, we kill them from afar, and mop up the rest

Dude, your tanks are SO 30th Millenium.
