Part I

Hi All,

Today will be working on the Eldar Farseer!

The model has great potential for different paint schemes and clean surfaces to bring out that Eldar sheen. The model is a favorite of ours for this reason.

see below for early works on the cloak and some Highlights before we start on the next level of detail.

Finer Workings from the table –

Alright so how I painted the cloak: undercoated the model with citadel black spray (half assembled for easy access with the brush)

1: Base coated the cloak with alien purple from valejo (I added black to the mix as I wasn’t incredibly happy with my starting tone for purple)

2: My next step was a mix of 10:3 (purple:white) leaving the deepest crevasses with the darker purple.

3: I worked this up further, again leaving a small part of the coat before visible (10:5) this was done again and again using mixes, 10:7 1:1 and then working in reverse going 7 parts purple 10 parts white.

Then to finish it off a pure white highlight in the areas that would reflect the most light.



Keep watching for Part II in the next few days!

Looking great! Will be keeping an eye on this for later updates.

Thanks Quanar!

Cloaks and robes have always been my downfall, so thank you for putting up this mini tutorial

I shall be watching with keen interest!

So today we are building up the golden layers.

yes we went over the sides but any one who has painted before knows there is always cleaning up to do.

Basecoat for non metallic gold, using vomit brown for a brighter and clean looking gold

First blend 2 parts white 7 parts vomit brown

second blend 3 parts white 7 parts vomit brown

third blend 5 parts white 7 parts vomit brown

forth blend 1:1

final highlights: white


In the next post we will be looking at finishing off those sleves and making a start on the base armour and helmet. please give us feedback in the comments below.

Thank you for your time,

Hi All,

Its been a while with all that has been going on at the studio but Atlas had just sent me the latest pictures of our Eldar Farseer commission.

I am very happy with how the blue and purple have gone together and cant wait to see what he does with Eldrad's model from Death Masque which is one of our next projects.

So keep an eye out for our post on the Multi character series including Eldrad, Ahzek Ahriman, Geigor Fell-Hand, Sisters of Silence, Custodians, Death Watch Master and Captain.

Not to mention our showcase Magnus Deamon Primarch give away, details of which will go up on our site next week so look out for that or contact us early to find out more.

Thank you for your time,

Looks good - hope we get some proper close-ups when you're done. Can't appreciate much of the detail with the photos so far.
