Throwback Thursday – Epic Armageddon Dark Eldar

Throwback Thursday is a format, where I look back at old projects from my previous blog “Gemana”. They represent where I came from as a painter and hobbyist all those years ago.

Sold in 2023, this Dark Eldar army was a lovely project which demonstrates how great the 6mm scale tends to be for wargaming. The models are a mix of scratch-build models based on Warhammer 40k kits, infantry and some vehicles are proxies from Onslaught Miniatures.

The colour scheme was an homage to my first ever Warhammer 40k Army, which got me into the hobby back in 2005. Instead of a boring beige base. I decided to base the Cabal on a planet of Kobalt deserts. Kobalt Oxide is vibrantly blue in colour. Rusty spikes of iron piercing the Kobalt deserts helped to tie the Dark Eldar colours to the base.

The buildings and scenery were part of my original Epic game board, which was sold to a fellow hobbyist in Sweden back in 2015.
