Kabal from France

Hello everyone.

I start the DE 3 years ago, and i must confess, i think it is the most pleasing army to paint. Marines, necron, ork (especially them) are really boring to paint. But i never had this impression when i paint my minis (by the way i also play dark elves at warhammer battle, so mayby there is a link...).

I think this forum is more interesting than the french forum, so i move here.
For the moment i don't have a fluent language to speak in the tactica subjets, but i can show you my  army.

So this is my DE army, i don't have a name for now (maybe juste 'The Blazing').

Succubi with grotesques (i must change the ccw of the succubi)



Some cabalites warriors



One of my venom




And my talos (a mini from rakham)




Many pictures will come

Thanks for watching

I think you need to switch topic into plogs. This looks badass. I really like this ORANGE!!11 colour cheme of yours.

With the thread title I was expecting a tricolor paint scheme

Nice Grot conversion, and I'll second the praise for the orange scheme.

Very beautiful use of color here, and welcome to The Dark City!
Let me know in a PM if you would like to move this to a project log.

Excellent conversions, and fantastic painting, it's nice to see such a vibrant colour scheme. An entire army like this on the tabletop would look amazing.

Welcome to The Dark City, Zyrtchen. Not a bad first post to open with

Cheers.

What did you use to get that pattern on the venom? I am looking for something exactly like that.

Welcome to the Dark City! Don't worry about votre anglais because vos modelles parles pour lui meme, et nous peuvons tous bien comprendre!

(Sorry if my own french is a little rusty )

It's just un very little fence (ordinary, use for little trains), like this :

You juste have to cut the size you want. When your vehicle is almost done, you place the fence (it must not move during the operation) and you add a brighter color on the top face of your vehicle with an aero. The paint only go on the holes.

I think you're right, i send you a PM.

Thanks for watching and commenting guys !

The Medusae are also Rackham models, right? I picked up some Halbadiers De Dirz a thousand years ago to use as Haemonculi models in 3rd edition, and I was sad to see Rackham go out of business

Your solution for painting the patterns onto your vehicles is both simple and amazing!

Bonjour! Your army is looking excellent. A great use of colour and patterns and very well executed. I really like the simple yet very effective use of the fence to get the diamond patterns. I will have to try that myself. Looking forward to more

Bonjour frère de le Dark City!

I like those medusae, very nice!

Yep, and i understand the difficulties to get models from rackham. This is sad.

Some WIP of my madrakes (rackham again ^^) :




And a pic of my razorwing, unfortunately the pic is bad, i will take another.



Thank you guys for watching and commenting !

Oh those are fantastic, the orange scheme is particularly plesing without being cheery, (as bright colours could so easily be.)

Very nice wracks. I can't wait to see them painted!

Ah,I see another good looking Fulgrim in the background ;-)

Salut et bienvenue dans la Cité,

Enfin un autre français sur ce site, je commençais à désespérer.

(Sorry for the english people if I take advantage to write in french for once).

Ton schéma de couleur est superbe. Ton dégradé jaune/orange est vraiment bien fondu.

Just two pics of my razorwing (i thinl i must buy an other one) :

Ho je suis sûr qu'il y en a d'autres, sur pas mal de forum anglais/américains, il y a des français qui sont inscrit.
And this forum is far far away better than the french one ^^

Oops! I'm not used to seeing Mandrakes

No problems

Somes pics of two raider and one ravager :





And my 12 reavers :

Love love love these. The colours are just awesome

So i just finish my second talos :




And my mandrakes, 90% done.



After that --> incubi ! (rakham models again, i know, it's not surprising ^^)

Thats great, nice take on the talos

THE BEAUTY!!! -scurries away and burns my own models down in wishes to be as good as you-

Gorgeous models and I see some very good airbrush skills. What strikes me is how very different the Barghest models from Puppetswar can look due to different paintjobs.

Beautiful! Amazing! I love the Talos and want it in my life. It's a really good take on Dark Eldar-ing up a Wraithlord. Perfect!

The Mandrakes are also sick. Which bit did you use for heads?
