DONE!

Finished the Dark Eldar and just in time!  My friend is sending the painted stuff along with some people who are driving into Las Vegas early so he doesn't need to take them on the plane.  Finally a huge sigh of relief!  Now I can get back to doing some Orks!

Woah! Flash is way too high.

Last Ravager

So the last Ravager that I needed to finish was an eBay acquisition that had a pretty rough paint job.  I needed to make it fit with the rest of the army so I had a bit of a challenge.

Not exactly like the rest...

Dark Eldar Progress

LVO is rapidly approaching and I still have quite a bit to do. So far I have finished 30 Kabalite Warriors, 6 Venoms and 3 Ravagers.  All I need to do is 3 Raiders and 1 more Ravager.  I can't wait to finish this!  Switching to a 3 color (well 4 really) minimum has allowed me to speed up my progress immensely.  Anyway, wish me luck as I go down the stretch.

3 color minimum

Welcome back to the Workshop!  I have been furiously painting away trying to get these Dark Eldar finished in time for LVO.  Things are looking pretty grim.  I decided to change my approach and concentrate on getting everything done in a 3 color minimum and then fix what I have time to fix.  Otherwise I will not finish on time. 

*Cough* 10 down *Cough*

Blast!  I got really sick these past few days.  I even had to call off work.  Needless to say I lost a bit of painting time.  I did manage to finish 10 of the 15 kabalite warriors but I really can't afford any more delays.  I did manage to get the base coats on the first venom and I should have it finished in the next day or so depending on how tired I am.  Wish me luck!

  

5 Down

Five finished. The other 10 have been washed and all the weapons have been base coated.  Should have all 15 done by Sunday night.

Dark Eldar update (test warrior)

LVO is rapidly approaching and I have a lot of spiky space elves to get painted.  The bright turquoise primer has been a bit of a challenge to work with but I think I have figured it out.  Definitely an interesting project so far.  Here is the test model.  I think the process will go much faster now.  I plan of having 15 warriors done by the weekend.  Thanks for checking it out.

Painting Commission?

It has been a while since I last posted, personal life blah, blah, blah.  Anyways, I got the Stompa primed and I was all ready to start when my good friend Big M, asked me to help get his army painted for LVO.   I was very flattered and of course I said yes.  So now I have 1850 points of Dark Eldar to paint up. 6 Venoms, 30 Warriors, some Ravagers and Raiders (I still mix those up).  They were primed in a bright turquoise color but some detail work will really make them look good.  I will post some WIP shots.  Wish me luck!

7th Edition Ork Battle Report vs Dark Eldar (More LVO practice)

When I last played against my friend Zeus, I posed the question: How will you deal with Imperial Knights?  This question prompted me to build an 1850 point list with my Stompa so he could get some practice.  Carnage Ahead!

'Ere we go!

7th Edition Orks versus 7th Edition Dark Eldar (LVO Practice)

My friend Zeus is getting ready for the Las Vegas Open (LVO) and wanted to try out a few things from the new Dark Eldar Codex.  I haven't been able to play for a while so I jumped at the chance to unload some dakka into the spiky elves.
