Eldar & Friends by Dr Love....

[eldargal]

Very nice, all of it. Your Eldar vehicles are painted similar to mine, except replace the black with a pretty pink.

New (poor quality) Phototime, finished my Ravager last night




Next on the board is Warriors 16-20, and then Urien.

I'm working in a "do the less interesting things (eg squads) first...then reward yourself (or myself) by painting an awesome mini, like a vehcile or or HQ character or a new thing you've never done before". Seems to be working so far...after these next 5 and Urien, theres more wyches, then a succubus (buying one this weekend), reavers rewarded with helions (never painted any before)...

[SotonShades]

the purple on the aethersail and banner seem a little flat, could probably do with some shading and highlights. Can't quite tell if its the pic or the model, but is the rudder yellow on one side and bronze on the other? Seem rather an odd combination if so...

Other than those couple of points I quite like it. Nice work on the crew's armour especially.

[DrLove42]

Nah the rudders is bronze on both sides.

As for the banners they are just flat colour for now...i'm practising up my freehand for the logos and stuff that will adorn them soon enough.

[DrLove42]

Finished the next 5 warriors, and then Urien, then 10 Wyches

And then this guy





Next up Incubi, then the Succubus...then Hellions

[DrLove42]

Ho hum. Went on a bit of a lul after this guy, but then the FW open day reinvigorated me! So got the Incubi, another 3 reavers and most of my succubus done (ignore the naysayers..its actually a nice model)

Picture today is from a project i've been planning for a little bit, but came to fruition last night when i got all the bits i needed

My custom made Duke Sliscus


(since the photo i've removed the massive mould line on his forehead, i only noticed it in the photo)

The legs come from one of the raider passengers, with the torso removed at the waist.
The body is part of another raider passenger, using the front half of his torso, trimmed down to fit at the waist.
The cloak comes from a Dark Elf Corsair kit, needed quite a lot of the back already in it removing before it fit, but did in the end, with minimal greenstuffing.
The head comes from the Reaver pack
Blast Pistol and Sword come from the Warriors (I think - They were in my bits bag)
And then hes standing on a pile of skulls from the GW Skulls pack. Was gonna use the individual skulls and some greenstuff, but it came with this pile, that was just the right size

[DrLove42]

Mwa ha ha! Having been asked to photograph my sister in laws wedding (despite me never professing much aptitude in photography) I have finally decided to upgrade my old beat up, never working camera with a nice shiny basic Dig-SLR.

Still working things out with it, and playing with the settings, but should be able to get better pictures out of it! No real intention, or space (or money now) for a lighttent or anything, so they arne't perfect but little more time will get there

And now to celebrate the above guy, finished, as he has been for a while.

Duke Sliscus, the Serpent. Now I know the fluff says 2 swords, but couldn't work out how to do that and give him a pistol. So here he is!

[DrLove42]

Still working out the camera things....just need to work out what to do with the lighting...maybe see how the sun is outside tomorrow!

Anyway...new (from a certain point of view) model time! Was expecting for this to be horrible to paint, with it not being a nice model. But actually genuinely enjoyed painting this one, more than the Talos I just finished this week

Rather than give him the horrible conehead on the model, a little build up around the face and hes got a nice pointy helmet...which doesn't look at all like Magneto....

[SotonShades]

I like how you describe the hemonculous as a he, despite hte ample bosom :P I like the metal face loincloth though

[DrLove42]

Thats Johnny the Hemonculus. The Boobs are...experimental hemonculi surgery. They lactate deadly neurotoxin

Anyway! 2 updates in a week, i'm obviously on the ball...

Talos!



Photoquality is improving! No blur this time!

Happy with him...I think. Something still feels a bit off even though hes finished. As all my Hemonculi constructs are, the colour is green to go with the Covens colours.

Also my new project on the side...my Trueborn!




Finally managed to acrue enough bits and spare...across 3 warriors box, 2 scourges, 4 reavers and a Dark Elf corsair kit for the capes they live!

Still wasn't enough blasters though, so some are Shredders, with the front end cut off and blaster ends from the Reavers sets on the front.
