New Dark Eldar & 40K Finecast Releases
September 3, 2011 by beerogre
Here's the new Dark Eldar models for this month, along with some Finecast stuff.
My favourite is the Sslyth... but then I'm a sucker for Snakemen... anyone who's played one of my D&D games and managed (somehow) to reach paragon will have run into my venomous serpentine pals!
Here's the rest of the 40K releases from Game Workshop. Don't forget to put your comments below.

Well, the Sslyth looks fine. Too bad that it’s fine cast.
I simply love the SSlyth, changing the guns for swords and knives and it seems that you have a very nice fantasy creature. The Lhamaen is a finely detailed model. But it has such a boring pose. Why aren’t they making more dynamic minis? We know that they can, take Lilith Hesparex for example.
i wonder if those Sslyths are desendants of the laer, the emepeors childeren wiped out during the great crusade, the certainly remind me of how they were described in novel 4 arms, snake like bodies, subjects of she who thirsts or the dark prince pleasure
Don’t like either of them to be honest. Too static and not enough character to them. Need to have something with a bit more oomph to it.
yet more unimpressive stuff from GW … whats going on?
I think that the Dark Eldar stuff is really impressive… as a matter of fact, I think nearly EVERYTHING coming out (model-wise) from GW as of late has been great looking. It’s the price and (to a lesser extent) the rules which bug me. That Snake for 5 quid would be pushing it, but ok. 9 1/2?! No. Just… no. Silly.
just wondering how much £ is it to get a court for your archon cant imagine its viable…… gw just anger me nowadays…
Good ideas. Badly carried out. But maybe a different paint scheme will redeem the Sslyth?
Quite like the Lhamaean myself, can see quite a few uses for these. Lady Malys stand in or Ordo Xenos inquisitor stand in maybe.
Yes! Venomthropes rendered into finecast and Court of the Archon! (I’m saying yes to finecast because it is a cakewalk to assemble)
What a shame. This months release of the Firebelly made me think they where finally turning a corner and stop doing the dumb flex and show gun and blade combo that is so often the case.
I love the Sslyth and plan to do a small counts-as army of them at some point i.e. when I can afford it haha.
Why are they so static, ork nonewithstanding.
They all seem to be the least imaginative ways to make a model pose, it’s as if they’re aiming for a WYSIWYG on the Sslyth, he’s just holding all of his arsenal…
I am disappoint.
Loving the Sslyth model!
I’m so tempted to just have a court of 3!
