I didn't mean the style of those bases so much as the way they make a single stage for the unit. As if they had a scenic movement tray to fit into.

I voted for the marble because I think it fits the eldar better than the grass and gravel and it fits the humans better than the eldar temple. I think you could use a combination of all three, however, in using the scenic movement tray effect to make it look like they are standing in and around a temple of sorts.

ahhh I see .... Very good point. Sorry about the misinterpretation I do like what he did with them though, they look awesome.

Sorry for the delay folks, things have been hectic around here with Christmas coming up. I have finished the bases and I have to say I really like the look of them. I would like to know what you all think too. I am debating whether or not to add some tufts of grass coming up in between the tiles or to just leave them as is; feel free to comment with your opinion. Without further adieu .....














Hope you all enjoy the pics .... and as always,

Thanks for tuning in ....

Right now they look like they're in a palace or something close.

Grass would add a sense of "lost temple" of sort, so...

Adding grass seems a good idea to me, it depends on the mood you want to give to them : are they fighting among the ruins of a lost civilization, or are they stalking a corrupt noble & his mutant consorts?

Oh, in case I haven't said it already : your minis are really nicely painted!!!!

That's what I was thinking. After I looked at them I thought they would look a little better in a ruined temple type setting.... and Thank You for the compliment.

They're lookign great, but very clean. It's definitely a unifying look, without detracting from the model. I think some (brownish) grass and maybe some scorchmarks would take these to the next level. Great work as always!

Looking sharp. A little mud and rubble, and maybe some grass and moss will really build a lovely little scene on each on. Plus you can drag a little mud up onto their boots to really place them there.

Great work man.

The bases look great! I'd kill for a chess set painted up like this... maybe not the the point I'd eat human flesh, but yea, you get the idea.


I can't wait to see the rest of the gang! How many members are there for the team?

The blue marble looks fantastic! It looks like the white might be blown out a bit in the pics.

The group looks great. It's probably just me, but I think the guardsman looks a bit nervous around all the xenos... or maybe it's cause of the ornate quality of their location. I like it , at any rate - very characterful.

add a display base? thats what i would do, ythey are great now though! whats next!

They look excellent together. The bases really bring out the group aspect (which helps the Eldarimperium collaboration). Really nice work

One small request....the thing that made Migsula, Northern and Hammer's Jade Vessel blog so spectacular (in addition to the models) was the addition of the battle reports. Are you and your cousin going to put a show on for us in here?

Looking forward to more members of the gang.

Peter

Commisar & Wehrkind - I was going to add some rubble or grass, but my friend Matt suggested that I don't since the tiles are glossy. He kind of had a good point, so hopefully when I make a display base I can add some more details to it.

HF Izanagi - Thanks, at the moment I have seven models, but my entire warband will be nine. I have to make a warpseer and penitent witch to finish it.

Good Green - Thanks, yeah the white tiles are more bone color. The lighting and Ard' coat finish make them a bit bright in the pics. As for the Guardsman, I put him in the back for that reason. He's keeping his on them Xenos!!

Sageheart - I plan on that when they are finished. I have a Veteran guard (a Kasrkin model) all primed up and ready to go, I've just been too busy prepping for Christmas to get started on him. After that I will paint my Eldar ranger (converted out of a guardian model) and another Vet Guardsman. I will then build my Penitent witch and Warpseer.

PDH - I would LOVE to do some battle reports. If he gets his stuff together I will do some reports on here. I will run them through photoshop too so they look extra awesome. Here is one I did a while back CLICK HERE to check out the way I do them. The pictures look great when you enlarge them, but you have to back out not "X" out of them because they come up on the same tab as the site.

When I first saw that Guardsman I thought it was a great cartoon not a model. You've got a really nice comic book vibe going with him. The black looks great and keeps the Eldar from seeming like clowns these look like they take battle seriously and dress practically for it. I think the problem with the Inquisitor's Sord is that the hatchures don't look like energy pulsing out from the point maybe painting them all resonating out from the power bar thingy on the sword rather than equally spread out would look better?

It has been far too long since my last post! My apologies to all who have been keeping up with this thread. I was recently hired on at Battlefoam!!!! I am loving the job, but between employment at two places, it is hard to keep up on my projects. I just finished my Veteran Guard though, here it is ....





and here is the gang as it stands now .....


Sadly this will be the last update on this thread. The interest in =][=Munda has dropped and has been replaced with Spartan Games "Dystopian Wars". The models are fantasic and the game is pretty awesome. They are smaller in scale then 40k, here is an example of one of my Frigates (I am playing Empire of the Blazing Sun, which is Japan)


The game is Steam Punk themed and takes place on our world in the year 1870. In the game the industrial revolution happens about 100 years earlier and the world is at war. You should all check it out HERE

Thanks again for all the feedback I have received on this thread. If I do more with =][=Munda I will do it in a new thread. Be on the look out for my future projects that will include my Dystopian Wars fleet and my Space Wolves (coming n about two months, hopefully).


Thanks again for tuning in,

-The Man Behind the Mask-

Sad to hear I-munda dying down, loved your models :(

Agreed, those were awesome...

The final guardsman looks good. I do think its a shame you've moved on but I'll look forward to seeing your wolves.

Peter

thats a pity, your models are beautiful and it is great to see some =I=munda gangs starting to get built up.

Damn... that sucks to hear about droppin' the I-munda- your models were definitely a great benchmark in terms of quality. But I'll have to agree- it's a work of love, and time-consuming to boot just to be able to start. I'll be lookin' for your wolves, man!
