MORDHEIM

This band is composed of Dark Elf figures I have wanted to paint or figures I have already painted [done again because I like them so much]. My main goal was to create a dark yet colourful band so that it was obvious that they were Dark Elves. I have a lot of pictures of this group since I realy like the way they turned out. Pictures of the entire band can be found here.

This model is part of the possessed war band below. The one in the White Dwarf was not very intimidating and so I decided to alter the model. It is a possessed with the tail, tentacle and claw mutations. It was a great model to build with a fair bit of it being scratch sculpted. The pieces I used were: the body of a Tyranid warrior, Scyla's head, KoS claw and the tail end from a forest dragon. It is darker and more earthy than I normally would have painted him but that is so he fits in with the war band better. Pics of his back and side can also be seen.

This band was done with an emphasis for recreating the one found in White Dwarf and the Best of Town Cryer. The fellow who made the original band was a converting master as I found out once I started to build the models. Little details that will never be noticed were added to the models and made for a very challenging puzzle for me. In the end I managed to copy most of the builds with small changes to some of the figures. This was a very fun project, although I did curse the builder at times as I scavenged for bitz.
