Obviously, all I've done so far is just the red sections, all of the detail work still remains to be done. I'm still a little sloppy on the edge work, but practice makes perfect as they say! The plates are undercoated in Dark Flesh, followed by a Red Gore and Blood Red edging. Once that's done, I washed the plates with Baal Red which darkened them up a bit and smoothed out some of the more jagged edging fumbles. I then applied the same technique to the Venom:
Again, a little rough on the edging, I need to work on smoothing out that part of the process. Overall however I'm pleased with the resulting color - it's a nice dark crimson, which works well for a group called the Kabal of the Crimson Woe!

Great looking dark eldar army. I love your archon court models. The slyth are probably my favorite. I also really like your trueborn models. I may copy a squad for my trueborn, may throw in some wyche masked models as well.
ReplyDeleteI like how your paint job is coming along. I painted reavers and a Venom in the same dark red/black style. I base coated them black, then dry-brushed dark brown, dry-brushed scab red and then dry-brushed red gore. The final dry-brush was more of a red streaking then a dry-brush. I like the look, and it came together quickly. I haven't posted the reavers yet as I need to finish them, but you can check them out at eldaraddict.blogspot.com
I like what you have done so far. Great looking army.
Thanks! I really like the Venom that you've done - I can see how the dark brown was probably the missing step in the own recipe, the scheme that you're doing looks awesome!
