The army so far...

This one's still going :-) Since the last post I've added some more fire power and warriors. http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa444/With_hatred/Retro%20Dark%20Elves/aaIMG_3295_zpsqt3xgpye.jpg http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa444/With_hatred/Retro%20Dark%20Elves/aaIMG_3294_zps8ywswbaq.jpg htt...

Apologies, it's been a while but the army is still growing. I've added a few more crossbows and made their movement tray and have done the same for some Cold Ones Riders. I've just got some whelpmasters with hounds and maybe the hydra after that :-) http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa444/With_hat...

Thanks both.

I already had 20 of them done, it was my first unit, so just a case of adding another 9 and a musician.

Not sure what's coming next? Maybe a cauldron?

I've boosted the Spearmen regiment to 30. Solid block of cannon fodder :-) http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa444/With_hatred/Retro%20Dark%20Elves/SAM_7146_800_zpslwifhnni.jpg http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa444/With_hatred/Retro%20Dark%20Elves/SAM_7149_800_zpsc30xwb2v.jpg

Croosbows are looking great. I had a go at a Slaanesh army a while ago but never got around to getting some proper elves in it, only the cavalry. The theme was dark almost black armour and a dark purple colours. I just relied on the damonettes and icons to say it was Slannesh lol. https://www.facebo...

Just spent the last half an hour reaquainting myself with this thread.

Some great inspirational stuff here, thanks for sharing.

Thank you Lord D

I nice piece to have in your retro army

Yeah, I was very lucky to come across that one.

Ok, cheers

Jealous :-) I'm in the middle of a fourth DE army, no real theme apart from one during the cult of slaanesh period years ago. I'm mostly staying within each release period. I'd love to do a themed one with the new releases though although I'm not great with reds lol. I loved the Dwarf army you did (...

You'll be eagerly waiting the new releases then :-)

Yeah I know what you mean.

I have been thinking of adding some of the old GW dead grass, straw coloured stuff. perhaps that would help.

Sorry to hear that, I've been there myself losing to an top table quality eldar army, he had more friends than I did lol.

Here's the finished unit, quite pleased with them. I really need to think about banners for the next unit though as I've used the ripped heart twice now. Next up will probably be another 10 Witch Elves or 10 Spearmen before moving on to Rakarth riding a black dragon. http://i1198.photobucket.com/alb...

How did you get on at parade day?

Cool old Witches! I have a pile of these to paint myself, I really love the old sculpts, but did not like the swords they hold (they look a bit chunky) I ended up lopping them all off and pinning them with something smaller. They look nice and welcome back! Cheers. I know what you mean about the ch...

Hi all, Apologies for the delay but I was distracted by other games for a whils. Here's a preview of the next unit I'm working on. Progress has been retty good so far so I'm hoping to finish these in the next couple of days. Cheers, DB P.S It's good to be back :-) https://s26.postimg.org/od70tfa1l/w...

Nice one, thanks

Hi all, it's been a while :-) I'm still working on my 5th Ed army and wanted to post an update pic but am having to change my photo sharing account. I was using photobucket but now they have started charging and won't let me share anything until I pay the charge. Not impressed! What do you guys use ...

Lovely stuff, that dragon is brilliant and can't wait to see what you do with the Manticore.

Loving it :-)

Haha, nice one

Thanks Lord Drakon, you are too kind. Glad you like the bases as much as I do :-)
