Just started collecting Eldar just finished the first vehicle for them. Still working on a Spiritseer, Warpspiders, and Wraithguard. This is the color scheme I'm currently working on for them.

Beautiful. How'd you tint the window?

very nice

I had the same question as Kaiser. Is it a tinted window or painted cockpit?

Airbrush tints? - The new ghost tints, I can imagine they would produce something like this? with a very fine coat

Nice work all the way around, but that base is off the hook!!

I love the depth of the water and the layered effect!!
Top Notch!

Most excellent! That will look amazing on an entire army!

Thanks a lot. The cockpit was just a simple transparent airbrush layer. I wouldn't recommend or try that that again probably. It worked decent enough but the clear plastic really has problems with the paint beading up if you don't get the spray down just right.

The base is just three layers of cork over a skimmer base painted deep blue, sky blue, and then grey at the different heights. Then coated in layers of superglue. Really simple work but the outcome is very nice.

Your base steals the show for me. The Serpent itself is well done but that base is adds so much more to it.

You can also use stain glass paint from crafts stores. Does the same thing gives the same effect and works great on plastic. Ive used it on headlights to give the clear plastic a light blue tint.

Looks great! I love the stark contrasts. I do something similar with my canopies; if you use a wash followed by a layer of gloss varnish it looks roughly the same and it's really easy.

That canopy looks amazing - nice work

Really nice work mate

Wow, that looks great, kudos to you!

It seems a little plain no?
