Ok... so these guys aren't exactly done up for Tomorrow's War, but I thought I would show them to you guys anyways. They are Games Workshop Dark Eldar Wyches. They aren't 100% done as I have a lot of detail work to finish up, finish the trophies on the leaders rack, and their leather suits aren't done. I also have to retrim their bases in black as it doesn't like to stick very well (will probably have to seal just the base, I won't seal these guys as it will kill some detail). I have been painting this squad off and on for about a year now. Eventually I will put them on a really fancy base and enter them into a competition. Enough rambling, pictures are worth a thousand words:

















There is also an update on some WIP stuff on my blog (I know, bad attempt at blog promotion)

They look very good!

Did the paint chip off the edges of the resin bases?

Any trouble pinning them to the bases?


Just curious as I looked at mounting mine on similar bases


I may just steal that colour scheme

Ya, I need to clean up the black trim on the bases. I hold them by that part on the base, so it rubs off. I just super glued them to the resin base. I haven't had any problem with them falling off.

I've been working on my DE too. I really like the look of your Agonizer by the way, how did you do that one?
I just picked up 5 Venoms, and 30 wyches... I'm going to swarm like a boss!

Have you ever tried modding 40k to TW? It plays more like the fluff!

Tomorrow's War is currently the only thing that is keeping me interested in my GW miniatures. I haven't gotten around to playing a game of Tomorrow's 40k, but from playing Force on Force, I can't see anything but a good time.

In regards to the Agonizer... oh boy, that was a lot of trial and error, blending and blending... and more blending.

I can't remember what colors I used at the time, but I went from a Dark Red and then added a dark orange to it and left the very base of the agonizer the dark red. I took the blend all the way up through the whip. I then went to a lighter orange and mixed it with the blend I just used and took that through the next part. Then an orange/yellow and repeated the step. Then a lighter yellow, then another lighter yellow. So on and so on. The final highlight is white.

It really is a matter or trial and error. Also... really, really, really thin your paints. It also is a matter of finding colors that flow well on a color wheel. Red - Orange - Yellow flow together really well on the color wheel. I have not attempted to replicate the whip for a while. I tried to do it on a power sword using blues, but I didn't have a good set of blues to do it with.

Well you did a great job blending!

I just bought some Vallejo Game Colour paints to trial as I was so sick of my Citadel ones drying out constantly

Great post and I am looking forward to seeing more of your work

Those look really good! I dont usually keep up with GW stuff - have you converted them? If so, they are awesome!
