[PLOG sorta] Something is brewing....

[Dyvim tvar]

Afraid I have to agree ... Doesn't fit the fluff and doesn't look good on the model either. Gotta go Sea Dragon.

[Anthalt]

I quite like the bearskin. Druchii don't just skin seadragon, they also skin everything else in the world. I think diversity in cloaks is nice in going to show the monster capturing slaver nature of the dark elves. What model did it come from?

[Elithmar of lothern]

What model did it come from?

I was amazed at first by this, but I suppose I'm not on a High Elf site anymore.

It's from the High Elf chariot kit.

1) This is coming along VERY nicely, I am glad you took my idea and improved it.
2) I quite disagree with Phierlihy and Dyvim, I think for a race who lives in the land of chill it would be quite fitting to have a fur cloak. If your army was more corsair themed by all means seadragon is the way to go, but I personally like the fur. In fact I used that same cloak myself!

Kudos on a job well done, can't wait to see it painted.

[Liquidedust]

Not added the reins yet but this is the current state of affairs. Also some more tinkering to do do before priming, but fairly happy with him, and the bearcloak stays since I like it

[Tyrannus deathbringer]

One of the best pegasus dreadlord conversions Ive ever seen

[Liquidedust]

Comparison with my WIP Master on Peggy.

Yeah its a poor mans peggy on the master but is a temporary steed until I can build a better one for him. Master is not permanently affixed to the peggy, just magnetized to it.

However will keep the size diff between dreadlord and master peggys, the dreadlord gets the biggest and strongest ones while the masters have to make due with a slightly smaller breed.

[Liquidedust]

Well, started working on chariots. Nothing special just High Elf Chariots converted and modified to looks more druchii. The guy in the rear will have chains wrapped around his left hand that are attached to the chariot so all the leaning backwards give the illusion of movement in the model.

The figures are not fixed to the bases yet since I want to paint them individually before assembly, otherwise it will get very hard to reach all areas of the figures while painting.

[Liquidedust]

Building more charioteers for me chariots!

[Liquidedust]

Someone actually asked me earlier if the riders wouldn't be hard to paint with them affixes to the chariots, but they are actually all magnetized to the model and can be removed.

Even the guys with the reins are removeable since the reins themselves are magnetized and removable also.

[Liquidedust]

Gotta use those steeds rfom the High Elf Chariot kits for something, sure not using Dreadlords and Masters on Dark Steeds that often but now I have the option at least.

Riders are magnetized so can be put on other steeds as well.

Looking good.

I suggest removing the saddles from the cold ones for the chariot. It's a bit of a pain but ends up looking a lot better.

Yeah pondered about it, but it requires loads of carving and to get it consistent across all chariots will require a lot of work.

[Liquidedust]

Finally getting around to completing these, 18/30 assembled!

[Heartshiver]

It's an epic Peggy conversion but I would agree with Phierlihy on the Dreadlord. Druchii aren't really 'furry' people. Sea Dragon, Cold One or human hide is the height of our fashion!

[Amboadine]

Nice looking Harpies. Glad this has bumped your plog. Some good work here.

[xFallenx]

Very nice looking harpies.

[Liquidedust]

Well so got into painting again, it is slow but steady . . . .

Also I am terribly rusty so be nice!

[Amboadine]

Well coming back to painting, not a bad effort at all.
What I would suggest is that you water the paint down a little, and use multiple layers.

And of course bases are always nice

The death hag is something like 12-15 layers of paint . . .

Also macro photography really shows all your mistakes so much better . . . .

It does indeed

I was think more about the executioners cloak on the paint thickness rather than the hag.
Maybe just a contrasting colour as a highlight might work nicely or some definition where the cloak meets the armour and piping.

Will probably just wash the cloak with a brown/red mix to tone down the interruption between the cloak and armour.

The Dark Pegasus is superb. I saw the same conversion at Warhammer World (in someone's army, not on display) and I'm yet to see a better way of doing it.

Have to agree with some others regarding the cloak though. The White Lion one doesn't work on that model. I don't think it's the fur aspect, it's just that you created an amazingly dynamic model and the cloak just looks stiff, You'd be better off making a fur one from greenstuff, or a flowing cloak with fur trim. It'd give the model a great feeling of motion, as the pegasus looks like it's being urged to turn and the rider should reflect that. You might also consider having him leaning forward in the saddle, to counterbalance the rearing of his steed.

I'm loving the rider himself too, by the way. He has a Sauron-thing about him which works very nicely. You're onto a winner.
