Title: [WM][Dark-Elves] Chariots (alter for Cold-Ones riders)
Post by: marell le fou on March 03, 2014, 11:38:04 PM

Still in my DE army, i wanted a unit able to change the appearance of my army, useable as Cold-Ones riders.

I took three chariots from the character blisters to produce this unit, with only small modification here and there.

I wanted to test several colours schemas for my cold-ones, so i changed a lot the traditional blue-grey teint. I particularily liked the striped grey one. I will keep that option in mind. Maybe for Lizardmen with a brey black and yellow option.

Chariot itself is a little bit too chaos-looking, after all. I should have taken a silver option instead of gold. Will be next time.

Change in Cold-Ones poses by ploying head and tail, and hanging characters weapons.

Basing with Prince August artificial stone.

Custom standard bearer from Bell.

And here is the complete unit. I may add some few washes here and there but it's more or less finished.

I like the idea of a chariot unit in the dark elf force . Making the modifications is cool too . Congrats .

I like the differently coloured cold ones- it looks good. Very neat conversion work as well.
