Thanks jchaos79...... i just used the foundation red (Mechrite red) and then painted a few bits of red gore over the top. The red gore is slightly darker.



Finished a unit of witch elves this morning.

I ve never seen the witches so close and in detail. Great figures, and great paint also.

You are making a good job with your army

Who would've thought that grey would look good for lizards, especially at this scale?
It was an excellent choice - it looks better than the blue or green of most armies that I have seen.

This is turning out to be the best DE army I have ever seen.

Thanks all  ;D

I'm fairly near finishing my 3k army now. I just need to paint 4 units of cold one knights, and another unit of spearmen. I'll have to send back one blister of knights because of miscasts, so the last unit will be delayed

I'm going to attempt to churn out some cold one knights over the next few days. Here's my first unit....

Had a game last night (a close game. I found it difficult dealing with his 8 units of cavalry in a 2k game, but my Dark Elves just beat a Bretonnian army in a straight pitch battle.) so I couldn't really paint much. But the night before i made some more progress  ;D

Finished another unit of Cold One Knights, and got another unit ready.

I've gone for plain purple shields this time, instead of runes. I like the blank shields myself





Here's the unit i'll attempt to finish after i'm back from work tonight. This grey unit will my 8th unit of Cold One Knights. So close to finishing now...
