Before we go into the detail, here are my initial impressions of the Warhammer Fantasy Dark Elf Armies book itself.
First and foremost, this is a brooding book, it's suitably dark in artwork and painted figures. The cover is one of the best, only rivalled in my unartistic opinion by Tomb Kings, High Elves and Bretonnia (I don't care for many of the other covers - althought I love the content of most of them).
The Dark Elf models themselves are well proportioned, like Wood Elves and High Elves and there is plenty of characterisation in the army's looks.
The model painting in the book itself is good but the photos are sometimes disappointing with a lack of zoom shots and it's hard to see detail because they're all painted so black !
Anyway, I've only just started skipping through the book so I'd thought I'd let you know what I thoguht so far.
I hope my thoughts are useful for people new to the game, that's what this blog is all about really.
