Spy vs Spy? Drow vs Dark Elf...



OK!  Side by side views as promised.  

I am fairly sure I will use the tone on the left for the 40k Dark Eldar army.  However, I may vary those flesh tones from Kabal to Kabal...


The reason I am leaning more towards the lighter tone is that I want to do some sort of tattoos/body paint on the flesh tones.  The army is mostly Wyches, so there is more of that to work with.

Since 2 of the squads are Raging Heroes, there is even more blank canvas available.


My next experiment with these fantasy Vestals will be a very light one, with more of a blueish hue...


The blades will also be glowing, so that should be fun!




Hot stuff Part Deux: Raging Heroes Drow...


OK, finally posting the finished pictures now!  Tomorrow morning I will post the side by side shots with the Dark Elf version so you can compare the two themes.


This was the way I used to paint all the Dark Elves in the past.  I guess it was a chance to try out a different flesh tone every now and then!


I may still try out one more flesh tone variety on a Fantasy Vestal here before I try doing one of mine.  Probably with some tattoos...


Enjoy!
