Those are cracking for someone thats had such a gap in the hobby, great colour scheme too.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7945940.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7945940.page GMT Beginner painter - Dark Eldar Archon and Kabalite Warriors
I painted most of my army before I got my hands on my codex.

I would have painted it in the scheme of the kabal of the flayed skull.

These remind me of them, I especially like the kitbash/conversion on the archon, it makes the model looks good, like the old resin model.

my only small issue is the highlights on the green (especially the archons helmet), it looks kinda silly honestly, its kinda hard to do that, and I just dont bother.

what is the colour on the shoulderpads? It looks pretty cool, if its a mix pls tell me, it would look pretty cool on a daemonic sword IMO.

happy wargaming,

-Mikey

The shoulder/knee pads on some of the models are painted with Leadbelcher, Runefang Steel and then coated in Biel-tan Green shade for a green metal effect, then highlighted again with Runefang Steel]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7947975.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7947975.page GMT Beginner painter - Dark Eldar Archon and Kabalite Warriors DE. My favorite part is definitely the patchwork skin cloak on the archon. Keep up the good work man ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7952802.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7952802.page GMT Beginner painter - Dark Eldar Archon and Kabalite Warriors
The colour of the base edges is a little jarring ... not quite sure why, possibly just a little pale.


It's a very good return to the hobby, though ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7963236.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/654583/7963236.page GMT
