From the shadows they strike, sowing fear into their foes hearts. Taking slaves and valuables is second nature to them, as they proceed back from where they came from.

This is the thread for the army that few have seen to live to tell about. My Dark Eldar.

For the hair I started with Hormagaunt Purple Foundation, the gave that a quick wash in some Leviathan Purple wash, from there I coated that with Liche Purple followed by Warlock Purple, then dry brushed Tentacle Pink (not sold anymore Q_Q) followed by dry brushing VERY LIGHT Skull White over the rest with the final touch being another wash of Leviathan Purple.

ON a side note. I hate my Archon's Flesh mask. Any tips on how to make it look better while I attempt to mold him one that suits him better.

A few things. For one, use more flesh-y tones to make it look more realistic. On an overall model note, I'd say to use colors that stand out from each other more for his tabard and the hair on his helm.

I actually somewhat disagree, the hair is really well done, and the colors fit with the darkness of the model, just highlighted to be visible.

I was hoping to make his Robe lighter, but it didnt come out exactly how I wanted, and I didnt feel like fighting with it.

I might try it again.

As for the maks, I did use Fleshy tones but I didnt like the out come so I got mad and for some reason slapped red on it, hoping it would make it look better... Again not as I planned.

EDIT: I edited in what I did for the hair. (and will be doing for the hairs of most if not all of my DE)
