Hi everybody,

I thought I would start a new topic for this rather than add it to my Ultramar plog just to keep the two seperate.

So essentially I have been struggling a bit to get motivated painting wise, probably because I have been painting blue things non stop for that last five years....

I absolutely love the Dark Eldar models. They had always been my favourite faction from a fluff point of view but I never liked the models until they got their revamp a few years ago.

Of course I did my usual thing and bought lots of everything and then left them in a cupboard for years....

I did try to paint one (the Lhamaen) a while back but really wasn't happy with it, but when the clam pack Haemonculous came out I thought he would be a nice model to try again on.

This is very WIP at the moment. The "middle" bit of the figure is almost done, so the head, torso and legs. But the "left" and "right" bits are just started, so the arms, coat etc are just base coated for now.

I am hoping to have him finished by the end of this weekend and then I have two weeks off work so will start some Wracks to go with him.








Apologies for the bad photos, I have lost my camera so these are crappy phone pics, and for my dirty finger nails...

Hopefully I will be able to get a small Dark Eldar force painted up over the next few months but I will be flitting back and forth between these and my Ultras / Macragge PDF but we'll see how it goes, I am renowned for starting things and not finishing them...

looks great! I'm going to go look at your blue stuff too now.

Good solid effort there! Nice work!

Cheers chaps, got a bit more work done today but the pics are really bad so gonna try to get better ones tomorrow.










Almost finished, just a little bit of finishing off but gonna make a start on the Wracks and come back to him.

You are a filthy Xenos and need to be purged! Get back to painting loyal imperial troops!

Very nice work, I like what you’ve done with Mr. Evil there. Just be sure to crush him under the iron boot of the imperium once you are done.
