Red is an interesting colour to use together with green and white - it really works with them, and will be appearing in two main tones. A matt red for sword handles, streamers, and arrow fletchings; a gloss bright jewelled red for all the rubies scattered around and across each elf. There are a lot of rubies, and I've not got round to them yet. What I have done, though, is this:

All the gold is now shaded and highlighted, the skin is all washed, the matt red has been based. Next step is to do the rubies, then to highlight the matt reds, then to do the skin. After that, I touch up anything that needs touching up, apply gloss varnish to various bits (mostly the rubies) and do the basing. I should be able to get all that sorted this weekend. Then I can print a few more models to bring the force up to 1,000 points and start working on those...!
In other news, my copy of Warhammer: The Old World - Arcane Journal High Elf Realms arrived today, and I had a good read through of it. It's nice to have the physical books that'll allow me to use my army on the tabletop. The production values of the Old World books are really high - lovely full colour glossy pages, great art, all that. It's a nice thing.
