Hey there, I made some good progress on the first batch of Shadow Spectres, check them out. You can now get a good impression of what the paint scheme will look like. With my Saim-Hann Eldar, I chose to feature the craftworld colours prominently on all my aspect warriors and keep the “shrine colours” muted and subtle. I felt this made my Saim-Hann collection as a whole a bit drab, so for my Iybraesil army I’ll do it the other way round.

This is why I chose a bright silver for the armour instead of a ghostly grey, and painted the ribbons turquoise and jade green. The crystals in the weapons will become a pinkish red, adding another spot colour to the models. Can’t wait to finish them, I always love the moment when a paint scheme I came up with turns to life. How do you like the paint scheme?
