For my first proper blog post I thought I would kick off by showing 5 of my fully painted Eldar guardians (above). As you can see, I'm not using any of the traditional Craftworld colours but the colours are of my personally created Craftworld, Khaila-Necra (meaning 'Bloody Death') Their background is still obscure, but their colour sheme is definite the main colours being black and white with red details. To paint the guardians, I started off with undercoating the whole model in skull white spray, I then filled in any missed patches with normal skull white paint. The next coat was a liberal wash of Badab black, concentrating on the recesses of the armour. I then reapplied the skull white as a highlight. After all the armour was done, I would then pick out any details using the appropriate colour. You may notice that on all of their helmets (apart from the black one) i have added a simple freehand design. I did this simply to give each model more character, making them stand out on the battlefield. Please leave a comment if you think the picture is to dark, I wasn't sure if it was light enough. So thanks for reading, till next time!
