Army Projects for 2026, Twilight Kin, Xirkaali

Twilight Kin and XIrkaali are my goals for completion in 2026.

I like the mutant models, but I wouldn’t be taking more than one typically. So a single mutant unit amongst all the corsairs feels slightly out of place? So I wondered if I could give the corsairs guns. the mutants have the same stats as elves, so it isn’t a glaring weirdness there.

I also bought a bunch of Incubi glaives because the bits seller had some available and they’re my favourite melee weapons in basically anything. Not 100% sure what I will do with them, but they were too cool to pass up on. Possibly the melee version of the mutants, as they’re Meleee 3, Elite, and Thunderous Charge 2, so that would fit I think.

I’ve also been converting skiffs to better represent the shooting attacks, and a Void Captain on skiff.

Xirkaali are stunning, I’m not doing too many conversions with them.

Looking good.

The Dark Elder parts work really well and the guns suit their bow-legged stance. I always thought htye should be on surfboards.

The Xirkaali look stunning and it’s nice to see the sculpts before paint. The Matriach is my favorite Mantic Sculpt to date and I may copy adding a shield to her free hand.
