It Was All Yellow

 Coldplay aside, I decided I needed a break from the 18th Century, and after dithering around a little (a 1914 Poilou, a bit of this and a pinch of that) I pulled out my old, old, old Rogue Trader Eldar space Pirates.


I had a go at a Fire Dragon. my first attempt at painting a gradient on a miniature using paints thinned down to glazes. Lots of back and forth and I'm pretty pleased with the result.


Some yellow eldar. I've not painted with inks before, so this has been an interesting learning experience.

More to come as I have about 20 minis I would like to knock off before I get back to the French and Indian War.

Very nice! These remind me of a cross between the soldiers in the Alien films and Ultra Man. But more colorful of course.

Kind Regards,

Cheers Stokes. It's been an opportunity to experiment with materials and techniques I don't ordinarily.

Regards,
