Hi everyone. This is the beginning of my test colour scheme for my Daughters of Khaine army.
It's using a bronze and purple on pale skin combination. It's still early stages so she might need some cleaning up.
The whole mini was zenithal highlighted and then the skin was airbrushed with Vallejo Game Air Barbarian Flesh, then highlighted with Vallejo Model Air Skin tone. A 1:1 Druchii violet and medium mix was then washed into the recesses, followed by a 1:1 Caroburg Crimso
Welcome to my hobby progress plog. For the next few months this will focus on my adventures building and painting my AOS armies and Terrain. The forces on my hobby bench at the moment are
Mixed Order / Hammerhal City alliance. This is my Archmage from the Spire of Dawn set. Just bought from ebay last week.
Daughters of Khaine
This is just phase one. More to come this weekend with Morathi and another box of Witch Aelfs!
Terrain
Warscryer Citadel
Here's some pictures of my hobby progress this week!
5 Witch Aelves
2 Sisters of Slaughter
1 Death Hag
Some of these models look a little "beat-up" as they have been stripped and repainted and repaired a number of times unfortunately. But they serve as a decent starting point for the new army
It's been a while since I've been able to take any decent photos but in the last few months the Blood Cult has really come together. Apologies for the shoddy photos.
I've finished:
1 Cauldron with magnetized Avatar and Mirror. Cauldron designed to fit 1 of 3 models, a Slaughter Queen, Hag Queen or Medusa
30 Witch Aelves with paired daggers
15 out of 20 Witch Aelves with shields and daggers
2 of 3 Medusae, one converted using an old metal Morathi head to represent Drusala
Drusala's Blood Coven
This is the story of my force and the first of its two leaders, Drusala.
The mission
Drusala, Dark-Talon was the Khailebron adjunct to Selendti Llyr Xiss, Morathi’s Ambassador to Hammerhal. Drusala and her warhost, the Blood Coven, were secreted beneath Hammerhal Aqsha. Along with Drusala’s personal guard of Blood Sisters her Coven comprised the Cauldron Guard of the Hag Queen, Maka Khelt.
During the early years of the Daughters reintegration into
She was done mainly by airbrushing. Her skin is Vallejo Model Air Skin Tone over Vallejo Game Air Barbarian flesh, washed with Reikland Fleshshade, then a thinned burst of VMA Skin tone followed by a thinned (and targtted) wash of Druchii violet.
Her golden pieces are are Vallejo Metalics Copper and Gold. Based with Copper, highlighted with a 50:50 mix, then a final edge highlight (with airbrush) of Gold. These paints are an absolute dream. Stop using GW metalics and get these.
Her boo
Here's some pictures of Morathi. This was a nice model to work with for teh most part. Her head was difficult though and I messed-up her eye make-up a bit - you can really only see the errors on camera though.
Her colour scheme is an evolution of the Witch Aelves's on which I've made some further progress:
I'm still undecided as regards which Temple I'll go with but the scheme is versatile enough to fit in with either the Khailebron or Draichi Ganeth temples.
Here's a few updated images of the colour scheme on the first Witch Aelf and on a second one too. Apologies for the phone photos
I'm generally happy with the scheme. If it looks ok on these two it should look better on other models. These ladies have been test models for a number of colour schemes over the last 2 years and have stood-up to a lot of paint stripping. There are some flash issues here and there that I'll fix with the next few models too!
