Hide your women folk... UPDATE: 2nd painted!

Here's a surprise for you: I've done some painting! I decided to paint some Dark Eldar but warseer is down and I'm a bit of a narcissist and like my work to get looked at, so I painted a fimir instead:

I really enjoyed it too.

I took werekin's advice and attempted a different skin-tone and a mottled effect on this guy. It came out pretty well but I think I would thin my paint a bit more for the mottling in future or at least plan it out before hand a bit better.

I also tried out some woad/ celtic tattoos on this fella. Think I'll do this again but not on all of 'em.


Here's a good comparison shot for size and skin tone:


its great to get feedback from the Tom's not-boring-at-all-but-very-cool-mordheim community (c)



enjoy, I'm hoping to tackle another one at least before the end of the week.

p.s. Happy Easter!

These guys are turning out great, man. I really dig the tattoos.

Thanks very much FKSN. They were actually really easy to do. Just spirals of watered down hawk turquoise.

Excellent paint job. Time to get some games in because... oh just read this Hadriel;

There we go. I said I would write something about them and I did.

just out of curiosity, is there a reason for fimirs to be green? Are they some kind of ork cousins, looking at the onse you have painted they seem a bit more like chaos folk. I really don't know squat about them and the only GW fimirs I have seen are the ones that came with good old heroquest.

Anyway the minis are great and look almost exactly like the ones from heroquest, very impressive!

Chiming in a bit late on this one...the One-Eyed Lads turned out IMPRESSIVELY WELL DONE! The tattoos are really cool & I love the skin color...the glowing eyes add to the overall effect.
