I hope it isn't too presumptuous to start posting a [plog] right after joining. Anyway, this is the army I have been working on for the past few months, the Clan of Bo. I hope to add a lot to it in the coming months!

Pure Eye Candy - that is one sweet army you have there.

I need to recompose myself before I ask questions :D

Not too presumptuous at all :)
Beautiful looking army you have there.
Feel free to share your Dark eldar too, especially if they look this good. All models and pictures are appreciated.

Love the palette. It's an exquisite army.

& the name of your army reminds me of:

Plog right after joining the forum is definitely the right thing to do, especially if the models on it look this good. I just have to echo Cultofkhaine here, this indeed is pure eye candy. I look forward to seeing more. :)
I especially love how you have done the faces, the attention to detail is amazing and they look very lifelike (and the girls very feminine, just how I like them best)

Welcome to D.net!

Good thing for all of us you decided to start a plog right after joining, cause these models are great! Nice, clean painting, really well done.

Only thing - please change the name of your darkshard to the cross-bo's... :/

You are off to an excellent start! Good color choices, excellent painting skills, and all new models too. I'll be checking back to see more progress!!

Welcome to the Forum!

I really like what you have put together. Really nice color palette and terrific faces on your witch elf girls. They look beautiful and slightly nuts at the same time, which is perfect.

The cold one is also particularly nice. I like the contrast of colors on the various scales. I think this really makes for a look that really stands out.

Wow Agatha!
That's an awesome looking host you've assembled there. I think the Hydra is the pick of the bunch for me, though the marble statue is also suitably praise worthy. :D

An army shot would be nice, and my only gripe is the movement tray. What do you have in store for it/ them?

Fantastic faces! God, I wish my eyes were still good enough and hands steady enough to do eye liner like that! So jealous. :mrgreen:

Here are the last two pieces that complete 2000 points (although I probably need to work on improving the army!):

I think I'll probably do some warlocks next... it will take some time!

Same! I have to wear glasses to paint now and it is just not the same - getting old sucks!

More loveliness! Your style of painting is really beautiful, I look forward to the warlocks. Maybe you can even redeem the models for me... .)

very clean painting... How did you make the RBT? That is the only conversion I have seen of that that I like as much or more then the original

The way you do mouths is just stunning. Any chance of a tutorial?

Wow, great looking army! :)

I particularly like the natural tones on the hydra, the freehand on the banners, the medusa, the colour scheme and the natural look on the elf skin (especially the witches, who have the most of it on show).

Where's the torso of the RBT crewman on the right from? I don't recognise it...

I think it's one of the Scourgerunner charioteers.



@Barking Agatha: amazing army! I hope you don't mind if I steal some of your ideas for the RBT. ;)

Unless I'm mistaken that's a Dark Eldar Reaver bike flipped upside down with extra fins added. Very clever.
