Battlefleet Gothic (Finishing the Fleet) #4

Nick speaking,

Just a quick update on the Eldar fleet. The purple is washed and the first highlight is down. I have done some of the larger guns and vents, but I still have the smaller ones to do. Once the purple is complete, I will finish the guns and go in and do the yellow gemstones before moving onto the bases. First though, to get the purple completely highlighted...

Wow, that was hard work, so many fiddly bits to paint around, but the purple is now all in the right places. First I went in with Hormagaunt Purple and then over that with Lich Purple! Next will be to wash and highlight it, plus I need to paint all the guns and vents. More to come once I have put in a few more hours...

Time so sort that out then, and I am not going to go half measure with this. Looking at what I have left to paint and it totals up to fifteen ships. I know these models are very fiddly to paint and pretty time consuming, but I have decided to batch paint and finish the entire fleet all in one go! First though, to strip them, magnetise the bases and clean all the mould lines off...
