Wow, the Kabalite warriors look fantastic. Love the banner. You got them done quick didn't you?!

How did you do the eyes and weapons? Thraka green ink?

Think the colour scheme suits them really well.

Liking the Archon too - look's a right badass!

It didn't feel quick, feels like it took me ages!

The eyes are just scorpion green, and then a watered down scorpion green around the eye area. As I went on, I started adding a white to it as well so they are even brighter, the later models eyes look a lot better.

Woah bloody hell, I missed the group shot, when I checked it took me straight to this page as the most recent post and I just saw the leader.... lesson learnt.

Squad done and looking good, do you feel more inspired now that you have a unit complete?

Yeah defo, hopefully I can get my boss done by the end of this weekend, and then have a stab at a vehicle, not looking forward to them, never really painted big stuff before.

Once you get a couple of things finished and on the shelf, you will soon be whizzing through them!

Well, Duc de L'Isle is finished, hes ok, I am not 100% happy with him though. And I hate finecast, it sucks!













Still, job done, onto something else now.

Badass!

I'll be awkward and demand a pic with him and the warriors - they'll look all good together.

You thinking of doing other troops in the same colour scheme, or something different?

All my kabalite and trueborns will have the same armour scheme as they are part of the same Kabal, but other types will have different.

Quick update time..

Currently working on a 9 man Wyche squad, here is my first figure to show my colour scheme, have finished 3 now, but no point showing the rest as they are all similar, and not yet based etc. Will be going for a blue scheme for Cult type units, so these, Reavers etc, and I am planning to use a purple as main colour for coven types as their identifying colour.

Table top quality only, need to try and get em finished before we meet up.

She looks ace. Really like the figure and the colour scheme. The skin looks great too - a pallid purpley tinge.

Quick reply, grabbed a few pictures while packing up.

Really love them - best squad evar. Really done them justice, coz the figures are sweet: dynamic poses.

The colour scheme suits as well - did you use inks to line/shade em?

Woah, I've been slacking commenting too!

These are really good Dan, looks ace on the closeup too, can't wait to see em in the flesh. What is your next task?

You've been slacking in the seeing them in the flesh too - he had these at your house last meet up!

Flipping heck, were they the sames ones..... *head desk*

LOL!

Good to know they made an impression....

Trueborn done.

Nice job. Look good they do. There only four in a unit?

Love the figures - a great example of how new technology has affected miniature design. Seriously hope they resculpt a lot of the Eldar Aspect Warriors

Yeah, just the four - perfect painting size, sod 10 man units in future!

Nice stuff, I really like the smooth face masks, have you put gloss varnish onto them?

I have yeah. Quick enough to do, just wanted to finish them at that point.

Great job - like the orange sashes. They could have been swamped by the red but I think it works. Makes them look unusual.

Where did you get the resin bases from? Look nice those.

Orange? That's flayed skin! I suppose they could have been to Essex.

From a store on ebay, not bad, a few things I fancy from there.

Whoops! Maybe it was the tango man they got hold of? Probably just the lighting.....
