[40k] FD's Dark Eldars, Update 8th November: Parting shot (page 11) Options

[FatDamien]

Welcome, gentle reader, to the creation of the Cult of Red Grief! Prepare yourself to witness the making of the cruelest, most murderous, most kitten-hating alliance the vile Dark Eldar race has ever spawned! Muhahahahaha!
*Ahem*
Just getting into the mindset. Howdy. I've been an Eldar player for a few years, and I always wanted to see how the other half lived, but like a lot of people, was put off by the elderly codex and naff models. No longer!
So I'm making an army. This will be a bit of a combined arms force, using selection from all over the codex. As for aesthetics, the one scheme wytch really stood out for my was the Cult of Red Grief.
But enough prattle, time for pictures!
Here's how I'm doing so far, about a month in:

Archon Makiavellis


I used a crystal sword technique on his Djiin blade using billious greens, put 'ardcoat on it, then rehighlisted to get a clammy look. Props to my friend Ed for that tip.

Note on the banner is the symbol I've taken to be the symbol of this collective.

Kabalite Warriors

Weapon choices are splinter cannon and shredder, the former based on usefulness in game, the latter just on sheer looks.





Wyches
This Hekatrix was actually also my test model, and I was very pleased with the result. Agonisers are cool.

And her from behind :

And her squad:


More to come in following posts, so read on...

These are some very nice models.

You should totally paint shadows underneath the mandrakes
