This is my first proper post and was looking for some feedback on his guy.
I had started a eldar army and pottering away with the usual stuff that i will get round to posting up once i organise it better and get time (christmas is so hectic at work) not to mention better light to take pictures in.
This though i quite enjoyed making so thought id share. Im thinking of adding a pendant to his lance as well but again not sure.
Thanks guys. I plan a squad of 5 to give some character to the army and just for something diffrent to do. Gonna have a look at the camera later when i get a second sure the missus has been fiddling with its settings heres another picture i took of him this morning
He was made from a eldar guardian top half with the wrist cut to add a lance hand. The bottom half is dark elf cold one riders with some milliput to widen them to fit the cold one. The cold one its self is a skink cold one as i liked the symbols feeling that the old ones in fantasy are more or less the same who created the eldar so there would be a remenant there of them. The cloak was made from milliput as well but never came out that great.

I'd suggest repositioning the hands. Sideways ghetto gripping the weapons looks kinda silly normally, but it looks especially awkward with him holding it out to the side like that. Obviously we don't know if Eldar physiology would allow that, but since most of the people viewing your models will be human, that grip will look really uncomfortable and ineffective.
Otherwise, it's a good looking model.
Marneus Calgar is referred to as "one of the Imperium's greatest tacticians" and he treats the Codex like it's the War Bible. If the Codex is garbage, then how bad is everyone else?
