<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Dark Eldar Army - Constructive Critism Needed, Apply Within!!"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Dark Eldar Army - Constructive Critism Needed, Apply Within!! 40k and bought my first army late last year.
Made a start on the hand painted models and had to wait to Xmas to get my air brush.
This army has minimal conversions as I'm using it for competitions and don't want to increase the size of the models or possibly create problems with judges.
I haven't done much painting before and have no airbrushing experience so I'm looking for a little help with some tricks and tips that you may know.
I've watched hours of youtube clips and read plenty of articles to try to pick up techniques but there is a lack of quality tutorials.
So, now to the models. I had pretty poor natural light so i had to use the flash, i will update the photos when the storm clouds pass.


Warrior with dark lance


Sybarite with pistol and power weapon


Sybarite with blast pistol and agoniser



Hekatrix with pistol and agoniser


wyche


Scourge with haywire blaster



Lady Malys conversion.



Ravager with Flicker Fields.




Venoms with dual splinter cannons and flicker fields





Razorwing jet fighter with flicker fields and night shields.

I've gone down to a couple of the local GW tournaments and shown off my army. Won best painted each time now so i think i'm on the right track!
Last tourney i made a Lady Malys themed army, I'll post some pics of the other models i painted up.
I'm currently in the process of making a Ork blood axes themed force as I've gotten the conversion bug and I'll post a few pics of my orktimus prime trukk.

First is Lady Malys' raider - i added a few poison tongue icons and designs.



I put her with a court, so here is the Medusea


Ur-ghuls


Lhamean


I had a crack at the bat wing scourges and they came out quite well!


Here is the Orktimus prime trukk i started working on.

But then you could use something like the Troupe Leader from the Harlequins box head. That look borderline insane, yet it looks better than a Kroot head.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/428751/4071494.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/428751/4071494.page GMT
