Hello everyone,

Here are some eldars I started to paint in February. They are almost done except the bases.

That is some classic old lead. Nicely done!

these are awesome! if i ever did an eldar army i would love to work with all the old metal models. I do have some harlies laying about i really want to paint up..

Thank you guys !

I'm painting the last one of this platoon, you may find below a WIP of the captain

Love these guys. The trivial pursuit shuriken catapults are a lovely little touch!

Looks great to see these old models painted so well!

Thanks guys ! Here are some pictures of the finished squad and details of the bases.

Excellent, these were the miniatures that got me into wargames many moons ago. They are classic sculpts and still stand up today.

The colours choices and highlighting are great, and love the Trivial Pursuit tribute.

Thanks Thraxas ! Do you still have these minis ?

Lately I have been working on my banshees I'm still hesitating with this scheme, quite classical, or to paint the hair in black and the gemstones in red. Any advice ?

Man those heads are huuuuuge. Neat painting still and thumbs for awkwardly cool bases

I love the daemon bases

As for the Banshee... I do like the classic colours, but it would be interesting to see one with black hair and red gems... I think that might fit in quite well with your blue force and purple/blue bases.

Especially if you give a subtle blue to the black hair.

I'm slowly working on my banshees...

Thanks for sharing. Those models were my introduction to Rogue Trader and much enjoyment was had. Great models and they still look very cool today.

I received today some of the Raging Heroes minis. Here are some pictures...

A beermat. I almost prefer this beermat to my minis and for sure, I'll use it while painting / playing !


Some mascots


Sprues :


One of the miniatures :


Size comparison with GW

Looks pretty detailed for such a small model.

Look forward to seeing some paint on it

It has been a while since I posted my last pictures. Eventually I choosed to paint red hair et black hair for my banshees.

Since then, I finished to paint my 6 first banshees et and I began to paint my scorpions. I just finished the leather parts on the arms and legs, i still have to work on the green parts. : )

Scorpions are done. I'll paint the bases later, when I'll have finished the reapers and the missing banshees.

I like your paint job, but those long helmets with the stinger remain my least favorite of all the incarnations of the striking scorpions. So goofy looking.

Thanks. Well i did not knew there was an earlier version of these striking scorpions.



They definitely look better than the second one, though I dislike the last version, they look like Predators...

Hi,

New pictures are coming. Lately I have been painting a lot (a bit too quickly for me) as I am going to participate in a tournament in 3 weeks.

Here is an overview of what I painted so far


Some new banshees



Dark reapers



Fire dragons WIP

I have been working on my eldar dragons. They are still on WIP.

Some new minis !

I finished my fire dragons.




I also painted a special weapon from RT Era. I'll play it as a count-as.




The very beginning of my hawks

You don’t see a lot of blue on fire dragons, looks nice. What are you going to counts-as that eldar missile launcher for? I’ve got one myself and didn’t figure there was a lot he could be used for these days.

I was thinking about either a Heavy Weapon Platform or an Eldar Support Weapon, even if in this case the miniature is quite smaller. I think this heavy weapon fit quite well to the description of the platforms.

I have been working today with my teacher on an elf for blood bowl. Still on WIP !

I finished this miniature with my painting teacher. Just have to finish the base, this week hopefully !






Also, a friend of mine which is a professional painter has been painting some vehicles for me :

I eventually finished to paint the bases of my eldars. Here are some pictures of what I painted these months. Next : psykers and avatar !

I finished to paint my first 2015 mini. Here comes an avatar for my Eldar army !

I like it. The one thing that leapt out at me was his hand isn’t bloody. They still call him the bloody-handed god these days? I thought it was one of his defining features, like being composed of molten metal.

But ignoring that minor quibble, what you have done is very nice.
