Hello my fellow painters!

Im very new to painting, was never a big fan of painting my models(im just aweful at it). But lately I want to try and paint my 40k models(Dark eldar).

I just dont know all the tips/tricks to painting. I would really like to be better at it, and not dread my models after painting.

I could use any advice, Ill post a picture of my work soon. so I could get some feedback

If you know how to drybrush that can be a very useful trick to get highlights to blend and stand out.

Utilizing Careful Highlighting

We need photos of your work to assess how good you are right now, and what to improve. It's hard to give advice (aside from the generic advice) when you have no idea how your work looks.

Yes, pictures will help greatly. Ask around, too. There are very talented (and generous) painters on dakka, that are willing to give recipes/ tutorials for others.
