Respect Your (Dark) Eldars

I purchased a set of Games Workshop Dark Eldar Kabalite Warriors back in January on eBay.  There were 9 of them for 19 bucks.  Not a bad deal.  The nice part was that they were assembled and 2 were partially painted.  I ended up repainting those but kept the bluish plumes on their helmets.

Flat black undercoat.  Purple for the helmets, gloves, boots, and shoulder armor.  A 2nd coat of purple metallic paint was then applied.  Some parts of the helmets, were painted silver along with the blades and guns. The eye areas were given a clear blue .  The silver areas were then given a black wash.  Everything else was given highlights.  The plumes were given an extra bluish white highlight in some areas.

I'm psyched at how they turned out.  Check 'em out.  I hope ya like 'em!

Off topic:  I watched Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals last night. WOW!  The Edmonton Oilers embarrassed themselves royally.  The Florida Panthers gave them a whopping like I've never seen and laughed in their faces as they did.  I really don't care who wins.  I'm not a fan of either team.  I'm a hockey fan and would love if the Oilers can provide a least a half decent effort to make the series interesting.
