"serrated prows of pain perfected."
The Incubi sound difficult , but hey thats their job right , bein a pain in the insert region as apropriate .. Groan! Gotta say i prefer the centre guys pose if i had to choose one, it looks just perfect , full of menace , and power. bit tired tonight so i wont ramble on , are you gonna paint them in the same style as the others though , or opt for someting more sinister?

Gonna be gold or brass with some hints of the larger scheme. They are from the Kabal of the Gilded Ejaculate after all. Yeah thats right, Warriors from the kabal of the Perverse Fist alongside the remnants of the Kabal of the Gilded Ejaculate aboard the flagship the Wimpering Climax.

poof goes the family friendly neighberhood thread^^

Aye trust Perky to lower the tone whats their mother ship callled the vulcanised sheath

I like those reposed models. Great work!

Wimpering Climax

...
sounds a bit like "le petite mort" to me...

Loving the look, they look almost neon.

Its clear that you've put some serious effort in.

Hello! time for an update:

Firstly i did a little beastmastery (Animal husbandry) and can finally begin the proper sculpting. I didnt take any pics as basically the 'lil pooch looks similar to how he did before but with a bum and hind legs, plus a little filing here and there. Updates to come though as he is my Pet project (BOOM Feel the PUN-ishing force).

Secondly and with pics no less is a slight deviation from the Fiends of Commaragh. A tau firewarrior, being a compulsive scheme picker i have chosen the colours but need a little help. Though he looks nice, the rather lovely Space wolves grey and Fenris grey helped with this, he seems lacking i need something to make him 'POP' and basing ideas would be neat. Suggestions on a Postcard as usual.











More Dark Eldar soon i Promise!
Thanks for looking! Yes you too Naughty Lurkers!

Ps: The fact the lense looks good in the first pic is a joyful coincidence, i can't paint them to save my life.
EDIT: Not too difficult to guess which Sourcebook cover gave me the inspiration lol. All he needs is a rather angry Vostroyan hacking him a new windpipe!

Nice one with the Fire Warrior! WWhat purpose do the Fire Warriors serve, assuming that they will be linked the Perverse Fist and their affiliates somehow?

The Tau looks great, I like the color sheme. Very striking.

Tau looks great Perkustin , i can see you have a style now that is consistent . I think a nice bright yellow or pink , or even red would help him "pop" shoulder pad knee pad or even helmet , but he looks like a snow camo guy and as such i dont reckon he needs another colour . , snow basing might look rather good , especially if ued with some nice tau archetecture . look forward to seeing your pet project pics matey.

Awesome work Perkustin. Your conversion work / repositioning of models is very original and looks great. I have always wanted to build a Dark Eldar army and one day prob will, seeing your work here has made me want to even more. One thing that I have thought about is to build a Raider with a ridiculous amount of slave girls chained / tied up to it. (Greedy Eldars - taking all of the fit women)

hmmm cant really be of any help to make that mini pop any more... as for basing... ,maybe an urban scheme with a bit of flame coming from a pipe or a smouldering piece of timber?

I really don't know how you'd make him 'pop', now that I actually think about it. He really looks cool as it is. I think with your painting style "pop" has a different meaning, if any validity at all. Maybe you could add more highlighting to the brown (soft armour/garments?) between the grey plates?

The dark flesh body suit is actually fairly well highlighted, it just isn't as extreme as i normally do. I have decided on some red stripes for the gun as i was told that's how tau do Squad Markings.

I love you painting style. It also really suits the dark elder and makes then look more spiky than normal. Keep up the good work

hey Perkustin , i found this thought it might be useful . their is little eles in the tau book though.

Have been slowly working through this raider for my wyches. The red portion has come out nicely but the bone needs some refinements, i am attempting to blend it as we speak.





I have something else i have been working on regarding Dark eldar but i still need to type it up and scan the illustrations for the moment here is a Wip of the model i will be basing the fluff on. I will give you a hint, this guy is the medium sized variety....





Sorry for the bluriness its just the camera had trouble focusing on it, and i couldnt get the lighting how i wanted.

Finally i have a question... Does anyone know a good way of doing spinal cords (for the tail)? i was thinking or cutting sections from a headphone cable insulator sheath, threading them on the armature and sculpting on top. Anyone have any suggestions?

have you tried to look into zippers? my wife slavaged some for me.,..the structure is very spinalcord like...if possible look into a real old metal one... the even have elaborate hooks which could add plenty of detail and could look spooky as hell^^

the riader looks very tasty... somehow i have a feeling of food when i see that...That is meant as a compliment^^

that raider looks really nice , you do paint very well perky ,i wish i had your patience for blending mtay.i also notice some cool xbox games , feel free to add madarin to your friends list if you ever fancy some multyplayer stuff. although its mostly the boys who log on. as for the spine i used a iron man toy whip , but mybe beads would work?

BEADS! You are a genius!

You know those belgian sea shell chocolates? I think that is what the bone on the raider is closest to....

mmm....chocolate

Such a strange color scheme. Yet, you pull it off perfectly. Maybe the best Dark Eldar look I've come across so far.

Keep it up!

Nice colorations work on the Raider there Perk!

I wasn't sure about your style from just seeing the bike (the colors seamed very segragated and didn't flow very well on larger surfaces) but after seeing the rest of the thread I really like this idea.

It works out really well on the smaller figures, the raider I'm not sure on but I still like it a lot.

If GW doesn't release a hom model soon I'm going to use your idea of the wizard from fantasy. yours is going to look really good when you put your style to it.

I'm loving the way you painted that new raider. Nice work done on it, hoping to see it finished soon.
