How do you paint your DE?

[Archon No'ki]

So how do you paint your Kabal?

My warriors are red gore with a wash of puple ink for the bodies. mithril silver helmets with a broze wash and finaly goblin green hair drybushed with ultra marines blue. Black guns with a drybush of blotgun metal just to pick out the edges. if you do the armour right it looks like their suits are made wet blood.
Incubi are nomal, black armour, bleached bone masks and gold weapons.
The wyches are also painted black with skin painted with a mix of elf flesh and bleached bone. with black hair. and my raiders are painted the same as my warriors.

Midnight Blue over a black undercoat and a purple ink. Wyches midnight blue, they actually look blue!
Very Badly painted though, Im working at it!

Mine are black with red bits here n there. I gonna re do the whole shebang tho cept for the Incubi.Convert everything from warriors to wyches cos the whole model range sux.Pics when I get around to it lol.One pic in the gallery just now but the quality of the cam isnt that good. Oh and its just Urien not a conversion just yet.Conversions will be from the Dark Elf range plus bits from CWE and DE. Going for a Dark Harlie ish look But will use the DE rules cos they Rock

mine warrioirs have Liche purple armor, with Golden yellow helms. the plumes on the helms are red gore. the gun is also golden yellow, and Boltgun metal. i also highlight the armor with a lighter liche purple, and the golden yellow is highlighted with sunburst yellow.

My incubi have Liche pruple and Golden yellow armor and some boltgun dyrbrushed in places. Do the faces have to be Bleached Bone, is that some kind of special thing for them?

I haven't done my wyches yet. but i thinking about doing them with goblin green armor (or whatever they do have on).

I do my warriors with a black undercoat. Then I put nauseating blue on the upper body armour, the gauntlets and the ankle gauntlets and I go over everything else with chaos black just to make sure its even from the undercoat.

I then highlight anything black with nauseating blue and anything nauseating blue I dry brush with litche purple. After that I highlight anything drybrushed with litche purple with warlock purple and give them red eyes. My guns are black with a very very light drybrushing of bolt gun metal, just enough to bring out the edges in metal colour, the blades are dry brushed a bit more with mithril silver.


Hellbrass (when hes finished) will be predominantly black, the black is then highlited with 1 part chaos black and 1 part codex grey. I'll then ink wash black over that and it makes it look like parts of the armour are shining in the light so to speak. The eyes are done in warlock purple and the cloak is nausiating blue with litch purple highlights. The helmet will be black like the rest of the body but with a liche purple streak down each side.

Hellbrass also carries a sword (which I'm going to write some fluff for but in the game its just an agoniser) which I'm going to paint bleatched bone with a nausiating blue handle highlighted with litch purple. The blade edges will be hightlighted in liche purple to and i'm going to try and paint hair line liche purple cracks over the blade the idea being to make it look like torchered wraithbone.

I'm still to paint my Incubi and wyches but the wyches will follow the army theme and the Incubi will be the normal green colour with marble effect punishers.

I've found the rules, I'll post them in the tactics area if you want. I'm getting a new model for him, converting it from a normal warrior! one arm has the hand from the male lord (you know, the massive claw) the other one is going to have a sword, i'm looking for a suitably evil one but not to detailed along the blade, its not demonic or anything. I also need to think about cloaks, i'm looking at Dark Elf corsare cloaks but there must be a better one out there.

[Hellbrass Odesseron]

Oh, and i'll try and get Hellbrass up on the picture gallery when hes finished.

[Archon Zylath Deschain]

I paint mine with a black undercoat and red gore armour and with silver weaponry

my mon'keigh are in the same fashion but have cool trophy racks and DE totems and standards

Zylath is a huge conversion of half-chaos lord half DE Archon

This a thread for PAINTING, not modeling. If u want to talk about your brill' conversions, please make another thread about it.

Yes, sir, mister mod, sir.

[Archon Faraith]

black undersuits, green armour, mithril silver metal bits and purple hair.

[Hellbrass Odesseron]

Sounds cool. Are you using a bright green like goblin green or a dark green like dark angels green? I can just imagine DE with bright green suits, purple hair and mithril weapons. A sort of cross between Harlies and Wood Elves, very cool.

[Archon Yggdrasil]

Black base, silver bits and dry brushed white into the helmet hair thingies. My Incubi are the cool thing though, with the whole negative incubi effect (white where black normaly is, ect ect).

[Archon No'ki]

I've always loved your Incubi Yggy. When can I see them again?
