What the Flock?

The time is ticking until Adepticon.  Since I changed up my list for my Dark Eldar (yet again), I'm going to try and run three small packs of beasts with solely razorwings.  I assembled and painted up another 6 bases worth.  Here's the finished photos of the last batch of flying rending counters.

Combined with the previous 6 bases, it's an intimidating sight!  That's 72 rending attacks on the charge.

I also assembled an additional beast rider out of the cold one knights.  I'm going to start painting them this week once I'm back from a business trip to Canada.  Here's where they are at.

I have an 1850 tournament this coming weekend. It would be nice to get everything painted by then, but it looks like again I'll just have basic colors on some of the models.  Getting 6 beast masters, 2 raiders, 5 hellions, 1 wych, and raider crew finished by then with two days of business travel means no dice... ah well!

Now this is what a razorwing flock should look like.  Just a mass of flying nasty things.  I decided to keep the legs off them, more because I was lazy, but I don't think it detracts from the look.  It was a little bit of a pain to clean all of the miniatures and attach the wings, but all in all they turned out great.

Since my army is that silver metal with purple (body suits), red (hair) and green (for poison) accents, I kept to one of those colors.  My beasts will mainly be either shades of purple or red with green tongues. 

The carapace was simple.
- Dneb Stone base
- Devlan Mud wash
- paint on the Dneb Stone in everything but recesses
- White highlight with some striations on the edges.

Next up on the dark eldar project log is the crew for my two ravaragers and 4 venoms.  I'm also working on the side assembling the extra black templar pieces for that list.  It'll be a debate on what army I end up taking for the Adepticon championships.
