Well that was a pleasant diversion, lovely model. Almost caught myself enjoying painting this. Sorry folks I gave up on the photo’s, these are passable but do not really show how she appears in RL too well, Im not too happy with the panda eyes, but thats what you get for doing really fine work at the end of a very long day , shoudda finished up today really.
I’m usually ok but for some reason my camera mojo is fried. these are from the second attempt, I just lost the will to piss around with it so apologies, Maybe if it gets to my OCD enough to override the soul crushing desk job induced exhaustion I’ll have another go at the weekend.
I added a skull to the base to bring her more in line with my current army basing theme, I also tried for a pvc vest top as lelith is basically a mega stabby goth babe, with extra stabby.
As much as I enjoyed painting her ,it’s a bit of a guilty pleasure really as I should be painting shite I’m actually going in the army I’m hoping to complete for the Throne of Skulls in October …..yeah , we’ll see how that goes.
Next up a poison-car for the Tru born and maybe that much talked about Fire Dragon article ….
I picked Lelith up today, I am really looking forward to putting her together and painting her – although mine won’t look anywhere near as nice as yours.
A beautiful model indeed. Can’t say I blame you for finding it a guilty pleasure to paint her. I’ll probably end up doing that myself even though I don’t intend on starting a DE army.
Visit my blog and check out my Eldar army in progress : )
Going to put on my bastard hat mate, be warned.
Some of those highlights on the leg plates could be sharper, and you know it.
Otherwise, excellent work. She a metal or resin version?
Very nice! How did you do paint that skin tone? I’m eager to know!
Also, I did NOT realize Lelith was wearing a thong…
Damn you’ve done it again. I don’t care much about perfect execution, its a damn nice colour scheme and stands out.
Shes worth a play with she may not be point for point the best HQ in the dex but the way you roll, all those extra attacks may work out better for you, lol.
Nah, I have done a bunch of tests to try and justify using her, either my rolling is a bit crap as usual or an average of 2 wounds inflicted on T4 on the charge is suckfail for a character that costs as much as she does.
holy painsticks, thats an inspiration mate.
Great work man.
