GW reply

so i complained about the exalted chariot kit being  basically shit!  and that  i cant actually build  what i was told i could  on the site.

here is their  reply:

Thanks for the email, the set can either build a Exalted Seeker Chariot or a Seeker Chariot and a Hellflayer.

Please find the excerpt from the website below:

"This multi-part plastic boxed set contains 192 components, a 100 x 150mm monster base and a large oval base, with which to make an Exalted Seeker Chariot of Slaanesh. With this kit there are enough pieces to also build both a Seeker Chariot of Slaanesh and a Hellflayer of Slaanesh."

As such you can either make a single Exalted Chariot, or 1 Hellflayer and 1 Seeker Chariot.

 

so hes said you can build 1 or the other  but the above doesnt say  1 or the other it says all 3  so againg i replied agian not very happy  but GW is crap so well see what they say

white dar!!

so  the journey begins as it has to somewhere  iv  sprayed  near  enough my entireforce  white!! with the exception of:

my archon
1 ravager
the gun platform for the guardians
so here they are in all their glory

man thats alot of white  next pre shading  but first  food!!!!!

then ill post pics of the pre shading  hopefully my aim is to get the dark eldar  base coloured first including vehicles !!!!!  then ill do the bloodred of the eldar 

then its back to the red warwalker  who needs the gems finishing  and his eyes cleaning up!! another thing that i need 2 re learn lol

opening the exalted chariot + seeker chariot

right  iv jus bought  my exalted  chariot  what  a bloody rip off according to the gw  description you can build the exalted chariot with spare  parts to build  both the  hell flayer  and normal seeker chariot. but as per gw you only get  1 monster and 1 ovalbase so its  exalted OR the other 2 so iv complained and well see wat they say in a bit.

on to the kit!!

its a massive  box off the bat but is that bcoz thei shouldbe more in it lol :D

and as you can see for 3 kits  u only get  2 bases and 1 of each at that lol

plenty of sprues  tho  lots of combine harvester spikes!! lol

the seeker  is  pretty  much the same but in a smaller box  with less bits

new obsidian rose scheme done!

one thing i havent done is highlight the black as i need more battle grey but apart from that  im really liking the new colour  i didnt  blend up the gems as i want 2 stick with the dark feel 

the rose in bloom

now ever since i started playing de iv loved them but after a year or so of playing their looking a little tired i also  dont like the colour scheme  its not how i envisioned it would be  so here is a picof a venom  with my old colour scheme

 this paint scheme is as follows

chaos  black base
2/1 mix of  red gore and chaos black
then  highlighted  red gore and blood red

this is the new scheme its  still dark and muted like dark eldar  should be  but the red is coming thru its not finished yet  but here is the new colour scheme

 skull white( or other white)
pre shade with chaos black
1 pipette of carroberg crimson(baal red)  half a pipetter of nuln oil(badab black) spray model untill the black and red are blended to create a sublte change in colour
highlight red gore  blood red blazing orange(on highest points and corners)
the gems either side will be green   starting with dark angels  green  the back half of the gem  knarloc green then a small line of goblin green on the knarloc then varnish 

the finished model will be up shortly

targets

its  bin a while since i posted any targets  so heres a general update  of wats been  happening

1 i sold all my  vampire counts
2 i got sum eldar
3 those eldar  need painting
4 im re painting my dark eldar
5 iv also made sum cheapo eldar bases  that ill show off here

targets  for this month

1 build all the eldar
2 spray them all white
3 fix all the dark eldar
4 spray them all white
5 do a test peice  for my new colour scheme


ok  so i was looking at some  resin  eldar  bases  n thought  i like them but i cant spend  loads on bases  so iv made sum eldar  mosiac style bases  on the cheap using green stuff this is because the theme for my allies army will be yin and yang. the  dark eldar are dark anduse dark colours where as the eldar are bright and vibrant.

on to the bases simply take the some green stuff spread it over the base then  score it  and u  get something like this

2 new rules for 6th

ok firstly no pics!!  this is jus a simple summary of my game  VS an inquisition force

firstly blast  templates i cant see anything in the rule that halves their  str  which  means  it doesnt matter where the  hole  is  with a large blast  u can hammer loads of vehicles in 1 go  which means ill take 3  chaos vindicators lol

secondly  flyers !!!  they are ridiculous when their zooming  its  6's to hit i put 3 ravagers and a raider into 1 flyer  and 2 were guided andstill only got 2 hits im deff putting my flyer  back in my list
