As set into motion by our trusty poster Daeron, here is a new initiative meant to help you guys paint your Dark Elf force to a good standard. Whereas our Official Painting Guide covers the basics of painting techniques, this sticky shows how to put those techniques to good use on each model in the Dark Elf miniatures range. Furthermore, you might be inspired by a particular colour scheme, or there might be a masterful model featured here that makes you try a little harder next time. As the age-old artisan's saying goes: "To become a master, one must first copy a master".

There's just me and MDK who can edit this thread, guys. Therefore, we would like you to contribute to this thread. Do you remember a good discussion on particular models? A wonderful picture? A helpful step-by-step article? An entertaining model blog? Then by all means, PM me with a link, and I will place it here. Please try not to PM me with a link already placed here; I'm busy enough as is. Another condition is that it must be a painted model; not an unpainted conversion, no matter how fantastic it is. And, in case it wasn't clear: Only Dark Elf models!

there was actually a hydra I was looking for and have NO clue where to find. It had a full conversion breakdown of how the guy had cut the "rearing hydra" and green stuffed it into a much more aggressive charging model. NO clue here to find it.

This is a great idea. I just wish I could have seen the wich elf one before I finished mine.
At least I have unpainted exec's and COK's to work with. Has anyone done one for COK's that you know of?
