Dark Eldar
The new Dark Eldar from Games Workshop hit stores today and the postman delivered my pre-order today - Lelith Hesperax and a box of Wyches.
First up from the new arrivals, Lelith. A stunning figure and the best female GW have produced yet. A couple of annoying mould lines running through the hair make clean up a little bit of a chore but otherwise the components go together snuggly enough.
Little Princess - Runic Miniatures
I also recently received a stunning little sculpt by Jakob Rune Nielsen entitled "Little Princess" (middle of the pic). Would definitely recommend picking one up while you can, the smooth surfaces and lack of clutter make it a real painters joy and I'm looking forward to slinging some paint on it soon!
Captain Korvydae - Forgeworld
Finally, far left is the new Raven Guard character Captain Korvydae from Forgeworld which I picked up at Games Day UK. Again, a great figure with lots of movement and aggression in the pose and face.
I did think about converting him into a Blood Ravens character after playing Dawn of War 2 recently, that was however until I realised just how different the Blood Ravens chapter badge is from the Raven Guard which would have meant a lot more sculpting work than I had intended for this piece. Therefore, it looks like he will be staying a Raven Guard afterall.
Also, if anyone has a spare Forgeworld jump pack "vent pipe thing" going that they wouldn't mind parting with, let me know! Dropped mine and it snapped in a hard to pin or glue point...
Hopefully some new painting progress soon now that these projects are all reaching the painting stage!
Look forward to these mate, I love the new DE, in particular lielith.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Sheep! The new Dark Eldar are awesome, and I really look forward to seeing what you come up with. Lelith is a brilliant model, that I will inevitably need to paint myself, so go ahead and inspire me, please! ;-)

Cheers lads!
ReplyDeleteYes, very much looking forward to getting some paint on her - great miniature!
Come on, Dante! Give us an update! A WIP of Lelith, perhaps? ;-)

I know mate, I've not been anything like productive enough lately!
ReplyDeleteGot some time off coming up soon though and a few projects assembled (DE Hellions to add to these) so expect picture updates over the next few weeks hopefully!
Ok . . you've had a few weeks, where are those updates?
