The 'Invidious Requiem' Kabal

I have 14 hellions and a Baron conversion ,all sprayed up and waiting to go, don't know when that will be, but I can get you some pics of the baron as he is atm ?

Plans are afoot for a whole bunch of additions beyond ToS, you can expect a Tantalus and a Court this side of crimbo I hope.

I have to say, as one who has been happily following this thread, these are among the best looking dark eldar I have ever seen.

I know what to expect with a new post of pictures, but by golly they are still so darn impressive.

More please

Hey Gar, well there might be some stuff on the way that you may not expect ..... hopefully I can turn it up to 11 with the characters.

I will be slowing down on the DE now, I still have about the sam amount again to paint, but I'll do it over a while I should think, plus I have some Infinity models crying out for my love, their new metal alloy whotnot is soooo goooood, finacrap is a bad jest in comparison.

Here be my Baron as promised, he's not going to see paint for a little while mind.

Very Nice, as always!

I do love surprises. OK, well there have been a few I didn't like, but for the most part, I am giddy with curiosity.

Where did that cape bit come from? I like it.

Hello Thor

I'll tell ya If you write a tactics article for me blog ? :oP

*yes it's backmail... where are we exactly ?*

Deal - do you have a particular bit of tactics you'd like discussed?

To be honest, guest articles are an opportunity to show off, just put your best foot forward, I know your stuff is good otherwise I would not have (successfully) blackmailed/asked you ;o)

Your tacticas and advice are the sort of things I am more than happy to pedal to my readers, us xenos types need to stick together and all that )

Just in our own time, can't rush art as they say

Modded - edited for avoiding the swear filter. Please don't in future. Gob.

Yes, sadly it's update time once again, on the plus side It gave me a suitable excuse to crack open the whiskey...



more piccas and mindles drivel over on Rant in E minor !!

Why sadly? I can't get enough of your beautifull minis...

How much reaver bikes do you have unbuild by now? So many of those lovely helmets!

Hmm, I have another unit of unpainted Reavers thats it... I think a few people I know donated some, I actually still have a Dracon and 2 DL truborn and 4 slintercannon trueborn to do for larger games/choice if weps, only doing specific stuff for tourney at this point

I'm on the look for eight more of these helmets as well, but damn, these are good looking.

People "donated" Reaver helmets? I need some new friends. How many points is your painted stuff at now?

Err, 1750, minus the archon, Ill be posting up the finished heam in a bit and doing the Archon tomorrow. Looking at what I have and what there is left, it'll total about 3.5k

Soo tired , one model to go .... more angles on tha blog.

photography is a bit arse but I can't be assed to faff with it , seems a little out of focus to me, beh it looks fine in person.

I always thought the old Urien Rakarth was the best model GW did.

Then I see this and think " ok well hes the second best then"

Havent really looked much at Haemies or wracks n stuff . Im still a bit annoyed my old grotesques were scrapped rules wise, yeah ok I know they were a bit OT but I liked that in a unit.

I think out of all the DE armies Ive seen online this has to be in the top 3. It really shows the DE for what they are. Right murderous bastards. I like that. Grim dark stylish , like Goths decided theyd finally had enough, visited the Torture Garden to tool up and went on a rampage.

Can I have your painting skills when youre finished please?

i agree with jonnyroxtar

is there any way i can persuade you to paint your helions and the barron?

please!!

Must Have Hellions!!!! Please!

I can has army shot?

Trying to work out how to do that, being predominantly black means Ill need good lighting, Ill see if some shots from club tomorrow come out ok, Archon will be done and up tonight.

At laaast it is complete ! Archon done ,and with it the army , (though I have a bunch more stuff to paint for bigger games/variety.

Bigger post on blog with some flavour text

What else to say except that your Archon and Urien are just gorgeous! This entire army will look amazing all together.

Have you/will you submit it to GW's Flickr pool?

Wonderfull!

But why is he so old looking?

It fills my heart with grief, that you might reduce your production of wonderfull miniatures!
Please keep it up!

[edit] what are you going to use for the often mentioned objective markers?

If you read the background, the older an Archon gets the harder it is for him to stay pretty, an awful lot of slaughter etc is required to keep him pretty, mine needs a top up which provides a good motivation for goung raiding.

I have yet to track down /choose suitable mini's yet for the objectives, I'm doing some temporary stop gap ones this week.

Production will slow but not stop, I want to do a tantalus and court this side of christmas.

Love the Archon.

Full of character and nicely painted as always.
I like the source lighting on his hair and face too.
