Urkh Posted May 3, 2022 Author Share Posted May 3, 2022 Finished my vow for anger and arrogance! I unfortunately do not have enough time in my day to ensure I can complete another vow, so I am going to play it safe. Things are a little turbulent atm. I will, however, be moving onto painting my friends dark eldar that he recently started.

MithrilForge Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Great work, loving the fiery bases too , was the third one a chore ... Cheers, Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Ty mithril! The third one was more of me trying to replicate the first one. I still feel the first one came out the best, second the worse. The process was pretty easy, just need to perfect it. I also used some of the cassandora yellow wash on the pillars on the bases. It is quite vibrant!

MithrilForge Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Ah well at least 2 of them are awesome and the second is just well done , yep that cassandora wash is a strong one!!! , I mix it with Lahmian medium sometimes if I'm going for a less strong tone Keep up the great work!!

Urkh Posted July 2, 2022 Author Share Posted July 2, 2022 Planning a warhammer day on the 12th, and I will be playing a small game with my eldar against my brother's GF's dark eldar. I know she has a combat patrol, but idk what else besides that. Going into this mostly blind, but will do my best to put up a good representation. This will be my first game with the new book!

Pearson73 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Those War Walkers look very nice! How was your game against the darker kin, and what's next up on the painting desk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted August 27, 2022 Author Share Posted August 27, 2022 Unfortunately, her minis were still in storage and they didn't have time to get them out, so that game never occurred. I still await my first game using them. I am teaching a friend how to play on Monday, and he also is playing dark eldar. As for the painting queue, I have a unit of wraithblades and two wraith lords in the works. I'll be working on them momentarily. Painting has been a slog at the moment.

TrawlingCleaner Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I love the extra arms with guns idea! It really adds to the otherworldly-ness/statue vibe Wraithlords have. Great work! Urkh 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Thank you trawling! I was just looking at the mini one day, and thought, those are ball joints for the back guns, and the arms have sockets... soooooo..." a.d thus the idea was born! Also note this is a different wraithlord from the one in the pictures above! Overall, this guy is meant to be a chaff killer. Equipped with x2 scatter lasers and flamers, he shall be the bane of all my t3 low save enemies I currently find myself fighting against. All the weapons are magnetized though, and I made sure the poles are the same as on my first wraithlord, so the weapons are entirely interchangeable between the two. Next up: the rest of that wraithblade squad. I have been idle for far too long. TrawlingCleaner 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 (edited) Just wanted to do a quick progress report on the wraithblades. Slaanesh may be the enemy, but Nurgle attacked shortly after I posted the wraithlord. As such, I was unable to paint for a while. But I am back at it, and have 3/5 of the squad done, sans bases.

Karhedron Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Nice work there. I particularly like the richness of the yellow as this is always a hard colour to do well. Urkh 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urkh Posted April 25, 2023 Author Share Posted April 25, 2023 Ok, I have the mini part of the wraiths done now. Since taking this pic, I've removed them from the bases and am in the process of getting them done.

Urkh Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Ok, got the wraiths done! Frontal view: from overhead to see their bases better: and together with their Wraithlord: The crackle medium didn't do exactly what I was hoping, and it is hard to see the volcanic effects unless you're looking at them from above. Oh well, practice will make perfect. Up next: Storm Guardians! Magos Takatus, Focslain, Karhedron and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focslain Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 These are some amazingly done wraiths and such a lovely shade of orange. Props to the four armed wraithlord. Urkh 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted May 9, 2023 Author Share Posted May 9, 2023 A small update. Life has been very distracting, so going is slow. However, is a peak at what is to come: The Yncarne, Kythnos, Kallas and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted July 3, 2023 Author Share Posted July 3, 2023 So, I will be playing my first games of 10th today, and I've been busy doing a lot of prep work for it (learning rules, assembling minis, repairing terrain, etc). After today, I will be assembling the rest of my eldar forces, and then will vow it all for the event. I am going to finish the storm guardians before I start painting the vow, however. I don't wa t another situation where I am in the middle of painting a squad, then a painting event happens, I lose steam woth that squad, and it sits on my desk unfinished for a year and a half before I go back to them, like what happened with my wraithguard.

Urkh Posted July 10, 2023 Author Share Posted July 10, 2023 Got all the minis for my vow assembled, bar some weapons for painting purposes. Mental fortitude is spent, and I will officially make the vow tomorrow! I will be finishing the storm guardians up front before starting on the vow proper.

TrawlingCleaner Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Well done on getting it all built, that's a massive vow! I'm really looking forward to seeing these done Urkh 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urkh Posted July 10, 2023 Author Share Posted July 10, 2023 I'm looking forward to it as well! This will make my eldar be my first 100% painted army since I started the game in 5th edition and finished my Assault on black reach marines as black templars!
