The theme is that the craftworlds maiden world was a Planet covered by lush forests and a beautiful mountain range. The (thinking of name) learned to train the Ancient monsters know as dragons (gonna translate to eldar eventually and im gonna convert high elve dragons and dragon princes into Eldar Jet fighter's and jet bike's.) I'm gonna make up more fluff later on!

I love brightness

BTW lillooser is gonna paint them this way. I commissioned him.

Looks nice, but not very forest-y.

I know what you mean but they're supposed to be a mountain ''tribe'' and the fact that their forest's are lush is a side note ( mountain poping out of a lush forest would look cool) also the jungle would be pretty bright colored with lots of Orange and blue.

Happy Halloween!!!

DARN! get that out of my head D:

Thank you, thank you very much...

Looks pretty bright. A little too bright........

Like it, if you got the skill, I'd add shading and definition to the greens, giving it a little depth.

You know we're talking about Eldar, right?

This

Yes, I just don't really like most models bright. Other than that, I think it looks like an impressive paint scheme.

Yeah i just thought of converting tyranid teradactyl thingy's to eldar jetbike's

Noooo. That would look like silly cranked up to the max.

not if i did it well... use the dark eldar jet bike riders and green stuff them on. i dont see that being silly to the max :(

Btw here is a list of things i might do:


Use High elf dragons as Razorwing
Use Lizardmen teradatyl riders as Jet bikes
Use Treekin and Dryads as Wraithlords and wraith guard
Use great Eagles as A mounted seer Council.
Use wood elve HQ and Glade guard as aspect warriors and guardians
Use Wardancers as howling banshees

Flying bug mounts as bikes? Works for me. Especially for Eldar. They are elves, and elves do stuff like that. I give it a thumbs up.

They must ride around on giant beetles

Sounds like a good plan for an exodite army though, i think the orange makes sense and would look pretty good too, which is what eldar are all about

Just be sure to eccentuate the conversions enough so they make sense to whoever your playing

Something about it reminds me of 90's X-Men and that's a good thing.

I love the orange and black. Just in time for halloween. Looks great, go with it.

cool, i love a bright colour on black

You could call them "More Tanned than Biel Tan" or the "Fake Tan Beil Tan" the list is endless.
Not a fan of the colour scheme though.
Looks like a Chavvy "Jeremy Kyle here we come" Eldar.

NB: Jeremy Kyle is a talk show host in the mould of Jerry Springer but with a far less classy audience or participants.

Thanks guys, the crowd says yes! Lillooser is gonna painting over in englend and ill get them back in like december i think. Oh and this is their rune: 玄
It means Swift like a bird while vicious like a dragon!

It'll be a pig to paint.

Maybe give the black a gloss finish so it looks like obsidian rock and leave the Orange matte

I like it. Reversing it would be even more lava-ey, but it looks pretty darn good as-is.

Good thing i'm not ppainting it! although i will later on (for the rest of my army) but by then ill have a lot more Exp.

I think gloss black would look stunning

I think it looks good, but I wouldn't be able to get halloween out of my mind, haha. A gloss black would indeed look good, as other posters have suggested.

Something you might like to consider is adding some contrasting colour here and there, perhaps on the gems or the facemask. As it's predominantly yellow/orange then that would mean purple/blue. Sounds horrible, but if it's done subtle enough then it can really add that little something extra. You could say, perhaps, that the sky blue gems reflect the colour of the mountain sky
Plus you said yourself that your forest has blue stuff in!

Thanks for the idea ill do it on the gems but not on the bodie.

My first thought was 'tree frogs'.

Excellent colour scheme, then, for a 'Lustrian' Exodite army.

Really looking forward to seeing these planned conversions.

To the planned WE Aspects Warriors, can I add the suggestion of Dryad Striking Scorpions? Infiltration fits them well, and Spites could represent Scorpion Stings.
