Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

Now that I finished my troopers, the slightly better boxes are coming up. Today I wanted to try something more pristine. A black dragon. I must say it is a very nice and satisfying kit to build. It was a lot of fun. I even got a little angry on myself, since I have the kit lying around for so long a...

Re: Bits Swapping - Europe

I may have 2 to spare from the cold one knights and two from the chariots. Where do I have to send them? Europe can be a big place :D

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

And the 10 witch elves are complete. 20211020_181055.jpg I must say it is a very impressive kit. The quality of the sculpt is one of the best I have ever seen. It does feel like GW tried to push the limits on what was possible with their current sculpts. Some of the finer parts, in particular the wi...

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

Well.. the cold one knight sprues are done. All the bits have been cut and put into a box. The cold ones themselves have been assembled but the knights will be done later. I celebrated by cleaning another box of bits from the hydra and kharibdis (I still can't spell that name, why didn't they just g...

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

I have 5 of those, but I'm tempted to use them as "Lords" instead. On the other hand, the plastic models are convenient for conversions! Something to think about :D

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

The unit of Black Guard is complete. I started working on another one. This time in metal! It feels like going back in time. Although the metal is commendable as a material, it also is more challenging to clean up. I am grateful there is less cleaning than with the resin. 20211004_121252.jpg 2021100...

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

I haven't decided 100% on the spearmen yet and decided to give it a bit more time. I wonder whether to make one big block of spearmen, and get two big units of rxbs, or 2 big blocks of spearmen and 1 block of rxbs. Tough choices! I think it is more likely that I will ned a 2nd block of rxbs than spe...

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

I will probably glue the shield arm and shield afterwards, but include the spear in the spray.
Currently working on another set of boxes, to clean them up. I'll post an update soon.

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

20210923_092508.jpg The last sprue... of warriors. The picture may not look special but it did feel like it to me. This is a picture of my last sprue of 6th edition DE Warriors. This was the first sprue I bought (well not -this- one but one like this), and my wall of shame has had one unfinished sp...

That sounds like a plan, but I got some with the Cauldrons I do have. I'll keep them for later.

Re: [PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

And then I found a shelf full of metal minis. My project to clean up my Warhammer stuff just got bigger. Luckily for the black guard I have more models to make a unit. But for the witch elves, those are the only ones of that range that I have. I vaguely remember buying them, but I can't remember wha...

Re: [PLOG] Daeron's Blues

The clean up also reveals box upon box of loose bits and half-made models. This is but one of them, and the picture doesn't even show the mess at the bottom. There is no curse in Elvish, Entish or the tongues of Men for this mess. 20210915_102700.jpg I find the clean-up unexpectedly invigorating. It...

Re: [40k] Daeron's Thousand Sons

I ended up settling for a softer white. The bright white was wrestling for attention, and the bright yellow as well. I tried softer versions of both, and in the end I found the white more pleasing (even though the more tan-yellow was nice!) 20210914_173750.jpg meanwhile I started experimenting with ...

Re: [40k] Daeron's Thousand Sons

I'm stuck deciding on a colour for the bands. None of the choices really seem to click and I keep coming back to it. The 3rd from the left was the original attempt - It's the official theme. I don't like the yellow though. It looks too industrial and bee-like. The 2nd from the left was an attempt to...

Yes, they get square bases to play 8th or the new old world when it releases. 20210913_085811.jpg The first step before beginning a big project is making room.

[40k] Daeron's Thousand Sons

While I'm building my old dark elves, I'll also be painting my thousand sons for Warhammer 40k. This is the army I'm going to play in the coming weeks.
I have yet to complete my first unit, but here's a preview of what's coming!

[PLOG] Restoring my Old World Dark Elves

It's been a while. Although I won't be painting them up quickly, I thought I'd share my wall of shame. I got into an irresistible urge to build the remaining models. I will paint them some day too! But for now, behold the stash!

Everything has been cleansed, except for the users. I will check on that action later since I don't feel like doing it one at a time as the ACP offers.
