[PLOG] My first dark elves force

Post by Jona3070 »

Hello out there!

This is my first attempt at a PLOG and I haven't painted much. My army colors are 'Khorne Red' for the clothing, 'Skink Blue' for the scales and 'Wolf Grey' mixed with 'Chaos Black' for the hair.

I would be happy if you would tell me how I am doing so please comment and criticise my "work" ;) .

Regards Jonathan :D

This is my fourth model (a Corsair) where I haven't only used dry brushing.

This is looking good - any chance of getting a closer/tighter cropped shot. It's a bit hard to make out the details.

From what I can see looks to be a nice start. I like the SDC colour in particular.

looking good ;) I don't quite have alot of experiece, and i just started out my own plog, but i can safely say i like your colour scheme ;)
I do advise cropping the picture and basing the mini ;) especially basing it makes it look alot more awesome.
Also, it might be handy to upload you pictures somewhere and imbed them instead of uploading as attachments here, your choice though.

Thank you all for the great comments :D I have just edited the pictures instead of loaded them again. I'm new here so I will at some time (soon, hopefully) know how to insert the pictures through Img-style instead of attachments and once again thank you for the comments! ;)

Looks really nice and clean. Well done.
If you want to add images as non-attachments, I can recommend postimage.org. It's really simple to use - just upload the image and cut and paste the code into your messages. Hotlink for forums 1 is the code I use.

Yup, great start. Are they that glossy in person, or is it part of your photo process?
