Well, it was a bit of a struggle to get it done, but it's done.

The basic idea of the army was to make a rather sinister looking eldar army. Portraying the "fall" of the eldar on the tanks and bikes was something I thought might be fun, using lots of freehand and stuff to do it.

Anyway, on to the pics.

What? Is that the best you can do? I hope you're not charging too much for it... Should probably strip the whole thing and start over from scratch and see if you can't do a half way decent job the second time thru.

Fantastic Details througout the army. I love it.

I highly recommend you post the army as an army profile in the articles system for continued inspiration for the rest of the community.

Bravo on a job VERY well done. Should I ever start an eldar army, I'll be coming back to steal ideas wholesale ^_-.

Ummmm, yeah; time to toss out my army. Silly me thinking mine looked pretty good.

Absolutely stunning. I'm not even sure how it was completed. I'm assuming a wet palette is a start...airbrushing as well?

Thank you for posting this outstanding Eldar army.

And I thought your Ork stuff was crazy cool! Jesus Kronork that stuff is amazing. I have seen several sapce theme paint jobs but nothing I have seen touches those tanks. WOW. Do the Ladz over at the Waaagh know your doing panzy figs, ya might get a good Krumpin if they find out. Seriously man great work. I would follow up with those edges on the flight stands though, they do stick out a bit next to those paint jobs. Where and what did you use for referances or inspiration of your vortex paint jobs?

Thanks for fly base rims idea, hadn't even occured to me, I'm more of a transparent flying base type of guy anyway. The new directlink pics of all the bike mounted stuff is with updated pics, base rims black, and I did a few runes on the miniwings on the farseers bike.

Cheers for all the positive feedback.

Even though you have 3 falcons I would still play you just because of you paint job. Note to every power gamer out there:

If you play a cheesy list it had better look this good!

I have to second what has already been said, this is the best painted army I have ever seen.

So very nice. Loved the first pic of the falcon from way back, now as a whoel army the paint jobs are even more stunning.

So wasn't this a commission job for Therion? I take it he's is no longer interested in the 3 falcon army with 5ed looming?

Wow. Just... Seriously, what is there NOT to love about this army?!?? I love everything about them, and I think the screaming souls on squad 2 are an especially nice touch, out of an army comprised of nothing BUT especially nice touches!

I'm surprised noone's asked you how long it took to do all these.
