The Webways are Opening! #12 Phase Two Complete

Nick speaking,

Time to show off all the stuff that I managed to get for Phase Two of my £25.00 Army Challenge. Phase One was a huge success for me as I cobbled together twelve hundred points of Dark Eldar for my twenty five pound. Mainly thanks to some very generous donations and some good eBay buys. The original challenge was to get five hundred points with the first twenty five pound and then another five hundred points for Phase Two. Of course, as I smashed that in Phase One, I set my sights on eight hundred points for Phase Two to take me to a two thousand points for the entire challenge!

The Task was always going to be hard, but once again, thanks to some good eBay purchases and some very generous members of the community, I just managed to top my task and got about nine hundred points of spikey goodness for Phase Two! I feel very humbled by the good nature of my friends and have had a lot of excitement in my bidding on eBay to get the task complete and have a new army to paint and play. I will be posting my final 2k list very soon, but until then, here is a look at all the models I got for Phase Two of this Challenge...

The Webways are Opening! #8 Scourges and Hellions!

Nick speaking,

Back to Phase Two of my new Dark Eldar army that I am doing for the £25.00 Army Challenge. With £18.06 left, and a big need of some anti tank options for my army, I have been racking my brains as to what to do next! Ravagers and Scourges seem to be good options, but both are hard to find at a cheap price, so I came up with the idea of buying some cheap Wyches which no one seems to want these days, and making some wings for them out of plasticard!

Well, I ran the idea past one of my YouTube buddies that specialises in plastcard/styrene work, and during the conversation he said that he had some 'old' Scourges that he would be willing to send me for free! Seems like I struck gold again, as not only did he send me nine of the 'new' Scourges, but in the parcel were also five Hellions! A massive thank you to Kiblams for his generosity, and if you haven't heard of his YouTube Channel or Styrene based facebook page, please go and check them out for me!
