Sure.

1. Base: VMC Pale Blue
2. Shadows: 50/50 mix of base colour and VMC Field Blue
3. Deep shadows: pure Field Blue
4. First highlight white added to the base colour
5. More white added

I had a son since I began this team and life with two kids is just.. different. I did manage to convert some more players and paint up a second blitzer though:

Truth. Life with two kids is ... :-? How did my parents deal with 5? :o

Glad to see my favorite dark elf team is back! Hope you can do a blog update with more angles and describing the conversion process. Can't wait to see more.

Lovely job!
Love how deep that yellow is.
Do you use some sort of wash to do it?

By the way, loved the mask on the witch (in your blog).
Keep us posted!
;)

Yes, I do. The recipe is on page 1 of this thread.
