so the Wraithseer is getting there - legs and body done, and the holo fins stuck on. Not looking too bad, and as you know, I rarely give myself too much credit!
next: arms and spear; once they're done and attached, I can get the shoulder pads done and then it's just the d-cannon left : )

(oh, and, of course, got all the gems on the body to do... I do love Eldar minis, but all those bloody gems!!)

Coming on great, whats the thought behind the odd stance? for some reason it looks very female.

Maybe its the heaving bosoms. It's got that hourglass figure!

It's also damn well painted.

Haha, you maybe right, confused by Robot Eldar boobs... the shame.

I echo the damny wellyness of the painting.

I used this image as a reference, so I guess feminine is a compliment! I looked for quite a long time for staff/spear fighing stances to use, and decided on this as it was elegant, but very strong at the same time. Couldn't replicate it as well as I would like, as I couldn't get the spear totally vertical, and could only swing the left foot/leg around so much. I should be able to push it a little closer to a right angle when I glue it onto the final base... you get the idea. One of the problems with a lot fo the images I found was that the stance had the fighter's feet really quite wide apart, which wouldn't let me fit it on a standard base.

Yea, this actually makes sense keep at it, it'll look great!

I like where you are going with the stance and battle position!

Well painted is obvious, but just as importantly, very creative and well designed! Very nice scheme and original scheme and layout, you made a lot of really good decisions if you ask me!

Not sure if i have ever checked in before but i've been watching your blog for a long time and i love it. I thought you'd want to know . I mean, you've got loads of supporters but one more can't hurt.

as ever, thank you very mcuh for the positive comments, they shall see me through today as I've been struck down with Man Flu!

Man FLU, more tough then your regular flu!

You know why they call it man flu?

Because only a Man could survive it.

Cancer can get man flu that's how potent it is..

Man flu i like a cancerous leprosy of the posterior. It also has some ebola mixed in for good measure.

it's almost as bad as when you cut yourself shaving.

Smooth!

progress: most of the arms done, but a few bits of cleaning up and tidying to do. I also want to do some further highlighting on the shield runes. But the arms are now stuck on, as is the head, so the shoulder pads can go on now, and then it's just the weapons to go : )

That is sweet fin
I love the pose

Looking through this i'm just in awe of the orange you manage to achieve, its absolutely perfect, the pose too, subscribed. =]

Just amazing! The only problem is that when I see it, I have this overwhelming urge to swat it with a rolled up news-paper.

I just hate wasps...

your work is absolutely fantastic. Love the colour of your eldar seriously considering stealing that scheme.

I'm guessing your using glazing to get the blends so smooth? I wish I could paint that way its fantastic

As usual mate, your orange is top notch.

Sweet pose, fantastic orange, great as always

Absolutely Superb work! Makes me want to start an Eldar army of my own! great stuff! +1

You make Orange look easy, and I know it's not lolz

That orange is insane! Subbed!
