Dark Eldar Archon
While I like the new metal Archon, I still had a project laying around, and with the new codex decided to finish it (but not quite as I originally planned). All the parts used in this model are GW (except for the head, that's from a Freebooter vampire). They include, from bottom to top (somewhat): - various skulls and bits for the base - the rocky formation from the plastic High Elf Wizard - ungor lower legs - the upper legs and body of Morathi (DE sorceress on pegasus) - Arms and flaming sword from the HE plastic wizard kit - Left lower arm (glove) from the mounted lord of Nurgle - Shoulderpads from an old DE torso - Cloak from the mounted plastic HE wizard - Chains from marauder horsemen and chaos knights kits - and finally, a tail made from the whip of an agonizer I was going to do a much simpler conversion, just glueing a Dark Edar torso onto the ungor legs, but the legs were too broad for the torso, and I still had this body laying about. I also considered using the empire wizards flaming sword, but, like the ungor legs, found it to be too large in comparison. I was also going to put the Dire Avenger 'loincloth' on, but decided that it would cover up too much of the converting work. Also, this way the model seems less bulky. I'm really happy with this one. can't wait to start paintng it. unfortunately its too cold to spray outside at the moment, and I ran out of white primer. I guess we'll all have to wait for better weather. Comments appreciated as allways. Yes I noticed the moldlines on one of the skulls, I'll fix that before painting...
