Incubi



My Archon's new bodyguards... Ready for battle on Sunday. I used pilot helmets instead of the traditional helmets for a few reasons. I was concerned that the standard incubi head and back wing things would make the incubi look more menacing than the dude they are protecting. In other words, I didn't want them cramping my Archon's style. I think they turned out pretty neat... It's too bad with the poor lighting that you can't make out the contrast in the swords they've got (or Klaives if you want to be technical).

I would like to give them highlights with the rest of the army, but alas I don't have the time.. so as of right now detail work is reserved for my leaders.

BTW, the reason my Dark Eldar are brown is because I am loosely theming them off of Jabba's court from Return of the Jedi (hence the desert bases - the raiders are of course brown with orange sails). Oh man did I resist the temptation to paint my Archon like Boba Fett. I am actually looking forward to eventually making a display board for this army... Sarlacc Pit!!

  1. Love your work!
    would you perhaps be interested in selling the original incubi heads if you still have them?
    send me an email in such case gabriel.hagman(at)telia.com
