I saw so many pictures of black clad Dark Eldar with neon highlights that I was compelled to buy some and paint them in a normal fashion...this one is painted to resemble a grave stone...he is a member of the Kabal of the Desecrated Tomb:

Love the colour scheme.
Which colours did you use?
Happy Gaming,
Allan
Undercoat: Dheneb Stone
Base coat
Armour: Codex grey
Cloth: Chardonite Granite
Weapons: Gunmetal
Tabard: Dheneb Stone
Wash the whole thing with Devlan mud.
Stipple the armour with patches of camo green and dark flesh and dry brush with some codex grey. Highlight with a 50/50 mix of shadow grey and codex grey.
Cloth is further washed with badab black.
Pistol has a scorched brown casing washed with devlan mud.
The tabard is washed with very watery thraka green and Baal red and then highlighted with dheneb stone
the bones and helmet markings are just bleached bone highlighted with skull white.
The eyes and red pouch are mechrite red with blood red highlight.
the green bits are darkangel green with scorpion green mixed in for highlights.
Base is bestial brown with vomit brown highlight and a chaos black rim...
...I think that covers it all ;)
wow, that is a great color scheme! I particularly like the "boots" and "gloves" look it gives the hands and feet.
How do the new Dark Eldar compare in size to other figures? Would their bitz be compatible with IG or empire bitz?
They are slightly taller and more slight than IG...and I don't own any fantasy miniatures, so Empire Soliers are beyond my knowledge I guess.
I'm not sure the style would suit IG and the waist would need sorting out because they are ball and socket rather than flat against flat surface.
Really Nice...now is the a Grymn siting inside it. :)
Haha! Not on this occasion...but I have a box of the plastics...so one could end up a bit shorter than the rest ;)...
The Dark Eldar colour scheme you have chosen works really, really well. Kudos.

Really nice and original colour scheme. Well done, too.
