WIP: NOCF Eldar Final Details

I used the colors above to do the freehand. Lots of very thin glazes getting darker and darker as I went with the original helmet colors for touch ups as I went. I figured Eldar were fancy and would do freehand art on their helmets. More details below...

Very simple layering of the colors below and a basic wash to add a bit of blue and tie them back to their Craftworld brothers. Remember this is part of a bigger force ;)
Next up was gems. Bloody Eldar and their fancy baubles -_-
Basecoat Evil Sunz Scarlet. Small highlight of Troll Slayer Orange at the bottom side of each gem. Smaller highlight of Yriel Yellow, again at the bottom side of each gem. Next, build up glazes of Blue ink on the top most side of each gem until it is almost black over the red. Finally a white dot at the highest point of each gem.
 So much work, but they pop and look very fancy :P
