Sneaky Striking Scorpion






Deep in the Webway

I'm a Dark Eldar player and, as a result, I will be needing a lot of Venoms. I would also like to make a small strike force (4 models + Lelith) of Hekatrix Bloodbrides, but want to make them unique - however there are other threads on Wych conversions so I'm not asking for suggestions on that front.

What I was thinking of was changing the crew and side-passengers of my Venoms to match the unit it is transporting. For example, one unit will be Incubi, so I could replace the passenger model (maybe with the exception of the legs, which I could use the legs from the Raider kit) with an Incubus one and possibly magnetise it to be removable. This would make it clear to my opponents who is in what transport, and once they've disembarked, I can take off the passenger models too. Is this a good/achievable idea?

Secondly, I already have ideas from other threads on individualising my Bloodbrides - e.g. giving them the flails, and alternate hair colours. However, looking at Lelith's pose and the passengers in the Venom, I thought it may look nice to use the passengers as Bloodbrides and model them on bases like Lelith's. However, that would mean five models in a squad all taking the same pose... Could this be a good and achievable idea too?

Many thanks for any help you can give

Well you could always not put the passenger in. that way you can split whatever model is actually riding it on the platform.

that way you have extra models to play with as well.
