An "Evil?" project log. 6/21 Don't call it a comeback!

A little bit of progress:

I went with black and orange on the wings to not draw too much away from the purple and teal. The black and orange both have a couple layers of highlights each to go, but seem to be working so far.

These are taking longer than I had hoped Mad

Those wings look great! The black and orange work together really well. Like the magnetising of the heavy weapon arms too. I did not think about doing that, consider the idea nicked when I get round to building my scourges Smile

. Awesome stuff

Love the wings!

The wings on the Scourges look fantastic! They are coming along very nicely.

Scourges DONE!!!

They took much longer than I anticipated, but were well worth the effort. I have five more to go that I will probably paint after the two Grotesques and Coven Raider driver that I am painting this month.

I'm rooting for the Bears! Razz

I like the wings and the runes on the bat wings -nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh BAT SCOURGE -

Awesome looking Scourges.

Beautiful!

They look great! My favourite of what you have done so far. Love em

I wasn't expecting this colour scheme at all given the rest of your army, but it looks fantastic ESE.

And beautifully executed, as always. They really beautiful models, the DE Scourges, and you have done them justice.

Awesome job, these dudes look wicked. Love the orange on the wings and as always jealous you have that pot of shining gold you've held on to. Razz

the feathers look pretty natural, great job ESE.

Thanks everyone! GAR had suggested a long while back that I use a bit of orange on my Archon's cloak to spice it up without overpowering the purple/teal, thought I'd try it out here. I am absolutely tickled with how they turned out and can't wait to get on to the other 5 that I have. They stayed unpainted for so long because I couldn't figure out how to paint the feathers/wings.

Getting closer to getting my DE collection fully painted....

I looked in my cupboard the other day and was stunned by how much I still have unpainted in there. If I don't buy another model for a year or two I might just get them all done.

Evil, when you've got everything painted, can you please set it all up on some huge table, or on the floor, to see the fully painted collection in one shot , has to be so epic to see such a massive force.

Second favor/wish I'd like to see if you feel up to it, a lot easier than the first one: can you set up the apoc formations and take pictures.

and BTW evil you don't have any FW Ravens or Razorwings? Those models are a lot more amazing when you actually have them in your own hands and well painted they're just plain awesome.

I just checked out the whole thread from the start, it has been an amazing journey so far. So many cool models, the endresult will be so amazing, hope you have many fun battles with this army and take many pictures, because that's all there's left to do!

I plan to do exactly that once I get all of the models that I have painted. I would probably arrange them by formations for my own sanity.

Sadly I don't. Once I finish the new range models that I have and convert a few of the oldies that I have been eying I plan to see if I can get one or two of those(if the price is right). I'll probably get a Tantalus as well as a capstone for this project Twisted Evil

Finishing up conversion work on an Aberation and additional Grotesque today. Hope to have a few pics up in the next few days Very Happy

Love all the new bits; the injection of orange really pops!

Any chance of you doing a corrupted Wraithknight? Would be cool to see you work your magic with some funky wraith bits and bobs.

Don't give me any bad ideas...my wallet can't handle the pain right now Evil or Very Mad

Does sound like an awesome idea though.....

On to my final push to finish my models off. Put in some work on my last Coven Raider today:

I usually don't run Dissies, but thought I'd magnetize this one and will have both options available for the weapon and shock prow. Hope to start painting it once I have time to base it with my airbrush later this week. Not pictured are the two Grotesques. Slowly making progress Mad

I'd hate to give you any bad ideas. Razz

I've heard there's going to be a rather nice Medusa statue coming with the fantasy DE release, so make sure you leave a space for it on one of your decks! Very Happy

Oh damn you straight to hell Razz

....I'll probably do one now Twisted Evil

What is behind the link? I can't seem to make it work!

Without any doubts, If I ever go near where you live, we need to meet up, if you're ever in Belgium, lets go drink some beer somewhere. You and me sir were made to meet up some day.

You know, during a period I actually started to count, the number times people used the word insane while talking to me, either you're insane or this is insane usually. Don't need to elaborate on it, just a lot of times.

Anyways yes, I like going big and insane. But it's not the worst part having such a huge army, it's the fact that I have several. Nids are taken care of, Tau ,a year or two and they're done, necrons all done, dark eldar still a lot to go, but most importantly: also got a fair eldar force, which I plan to expand for sure. Once I finish this huge project I'll just start another. This hobby is too awesome and I enjoy painting so much for some reason. It's kinda of masochistic, so much time to paint a single mini and I've got so many of them and want so much more. I've got years worth of painting, yet feel like adding nonstop more. I'll probably only stop when I can't see anymore, lose both my arms or just die XD. This is worse than doing drugs, a lot more addicting.
