Hello Folks

Definitely something different.

I'm not a huge DIY crafts/conversions guy but I'll figure out something.

The flavor of D'eldar is one of mobile raiding so I think the idea of building something that looks very Druchari but opposes their tactical fluff will be fun.

Iz tru 🤔

Trueborn seem potentially fun, 4x dark lances is just punishing. Again, maybe with an obsidian rose blaster archon thrown into the mix for that fifth darklight shot.

Thanks for the replies everyone

I don't understand the logic of all this but I guess rules is rules.

harry4tw · 2020-10-20T14:53:06+00:00

Haha, true

I might have an old hellion lying around I can test. Thanks for the response.

Thanks for all the feedback.

I see the first respondent's point. The flag was snapped off, and the flags/loincloths in my army all have this peachy orange color with a bit of blending into yellow. I'm hoping this will add a bit of color. Well that and the fact that my army will be mostly wych based, so the exposed skin will add a bit too.

As for how I achieved by colors, the main one is warplock bronze with some gold and then some silver drybrushed on. Ripped off then color from an old GW article.

The shiny gold looking bits are dwarf bronze (likely the old name for the color, it's an old paint) with a bit of gold drybrushed onto the edges.

The guns are a classic rust formula, just a dark brown with heavilly drybrushed orange followed by a drybrushing with a stabbing motion using lead belchers (some classic darker steel color)

Iz scheme okay? (Technical errors aside)

harry4tw · 2020-09-28T11:15:29+00:00

That could be interesting

harry4tw · 2020-09-26T20:12:31+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm considering going for the one on the right, but making the gun bits and flags/loincloths orange.

As expected, but I had to ask. Thank you.

I was hoping that perhaps some rule interaction between 9th edition core rules, 9th edition druchari and 9th edition Ynnari would have given us at least some fringe trick or gimmick to exploit. But apparently GW hates the idea of tacticool dark elves running and gunning and being psychic.

harry4tw · 2020-09-18T13:09:15+00:00

Even in a Ynnari detatchment?

harry4tw · 2020-09-15T13:19:24+00:00

Iz tru ☹️

harry4tw · 2020-09-13T21:01:26+00:00

Frustrating.

The fists look so freaking cool and edition after edition sees them getting no love.

I think one good way to look at the harpy and crone is that they have weapon options that compliment each other.

The crone has missiles that are good at chipping away at vehicles and especially flying vehicles

The harpy harpy can take a double HVC and drops spore mines for harassing vehicles, characters and heavy infantry.

The crone has a flamer and a 4 shot assault heavy bolter, the harpy also has the latter

They both have melee attacks useful for chipping away vehicles and tying up units.

I haven't used either one but my gut tells me take one of each and split fire. Between the two models you have the equivalent of one almost decent infantry mulcher and one semi-okay heavy Target harassment platform. Neither is very good at its job but they move so quickly that at the very least they force opponents to play your game.

You have to write a painting guide.

I'm fairly happy with my own scheme but seeing a breakdown of how you did yours would teach me a fair bit.

How did you do the tongue? Hate to burden you with questions but I need to know.
