Using this as a landing pad for some pictures I'll be posting around the net.

Finished raider and larger wych pictures!

Khymerae:

Hoping to finish the Wyche squad this week, and maybe a ravager or two.

Downtime

With the cold weather hitting my construction business is pretty slow.  I've picked up a few commission pieces to keep me busy and doing something.

Here's one of them, a tzeentch lord.

Also think I've landed on a paint scheme for my Wyches -

I'll be hitting the DE hard now that I've got quite a bit of free time, will be updating more regularly.

New base ideas for the eldar

I've been wracking my brain for ways to easily differentiate between the nine 5 man squads I'll be running with my Dark Eldar list.  I was browsing some of Jim Wappels minis when I noticed a basing style he does a lot of the time on his 40k minis that basically  involves creating some sort tiled floorwork.  He often paints his minis with bases that appear like they've been ripped directly from a temple or some other really interesting groundwork.

So, here we go, my first two attempts at this style of basing.

What do ya think?

Possible design for troop venoms?

So I saw a neat little tutorial on doing starry backgrounds with an airbrush and whipped this thing out in about 5 minutes.  Obviously it's very rough around the edges, but what do ya'll think about it if I can refine it a bit?

Dark Eldar Updates.

So in an effort to get this army done for Rock Con I've buckled down and started to get serious about the painting.

I've managed to finish two troop venoms (less the gunner and base) and three of the Trueborn's.

The troop venoms:

The Trueborn venoms:

And finally a group shot of everything:

With Rock Con only being 1850 points I'll be dropping my beast unit.  This will save me painting:

4 x Razorwing, 5 x Kymerae and 3 Beast masters

Bringing me to a grand total of:
25 Warriors
9 Wyches
3 Venoms
1 Raider
3 Ravagers
1 Haemonculus
1 Baron Sythrax
12 Trueborn

left to paint.  Oh, and all the riders on all the tanks as well.  So, yeah wish me luck.
