Those are awesome, great skin tones and it looks so well blended. Very cool, I can't wait to see the rest of your army.

A top notch paint jo Mrdee, good work! The minis are pretty dire as models, but you make them look good. Almost. ;)

@ phreedh

Thanks mate

@ bc99

Thanks, it will be finished between now and February, I have a commission to do that will run along side it of an entire Dark Eldar army but they are for my friend who is also my partner at the tournement so doubt he will mind if I concentrate on these more in an attempt to win us some extra points.

@ Verderer

Thanks, I thought that but then I started painting them and sort of grew to like them. They do have their faults admittedly. 

@ CAB

BOW WOW WOW

@ Sangennaru

won't be long I promise I am devoting all my time to this army and the dark eldar army commission mentioned above.  I have had to turn away 5 other commissions recently because of a need to get these done.  Maybe GW will give me a job to sit and paint models all day but I doubt it.

I also forgot to state in my original post that I will be placing a torso on the base of the centre hound being eaten and then the hound either side with an arm and a leg respectively, perhaps even the two hounds either side so accounting for all limbs

Worked on all of the last 7 tonight and they are all nearly finished, just pretty much horns and a couple of the crab claw tails to do.  They should all be finished tomorrow.

IMO the corpse is a bit excessive, but good lord is it ever beautifully done!
The contrast of gore on snow has a really stunning effect.
Great job, I really like the drool spilling out of him what's in back's mouth.

i like everything, but the corpse sculpt and anatomy are really lowering the overall effect.

but still it is great! ^^
