Here are some of the Dark Elves I've been working on for my wife.
I have no idea what is up with my lighting today, had weird glare on the left.
The dark riders are kit bashed from DE warriors and WE Glade Riders.
The crossbowmen are single layer colors with a soft body black wash
from http://www.awesomepaintjob.com/ and then skin done on top of this.
Most of this is speed painting really, the dark riders are still very WiP.
Their legs need to be detailed and dark gold added to armor.








This Assassin I bashed together this evening after deciding to take one in the 2250 list.
I used arms from the Empire Militia sprue, main hand sword is from DE warriors champion
Off hand dagger is an OOP dagger from the 5th/early 6th Edition Chaos Warriors sprue.
The arm blades are from the DE warriors standard cross pole. Chest from Glade Riders
Head from DE Cold One Knights, legs from High Elves Bowmen. Daggers also from Cold One Knights.







C&C always welcome!!

Looking good so far Are you going to be painting flesh on the crossbowmen's faces, or leaving them metallic? I kind of like them as they are... makes me think of gargoyles

They will be painted, they are metallic due to me airbrushing the chainmail on to speed it up.
