Now i don't play the "good" eldar race but i watched my friend struggle to scrape up the cash to get a full unit of these guys and then marveled how they all looked the same; i then wondered if anyone has found any better, preferably plastic/resin (but not limited to) models that are around the same size and that still fit the theme of an eldar army? They need not be GW models as this effects none of our gaming crew (except me, who is the only tournament frequenter) so any manufacturer works. As long as the company ships to Canada; there are no restrictions as where it comes from (so long as they are not ridiculous in price).

Thanks from me and the rest of the crew

Well, I'm biased as my friend works with them, but Armorcast makes some stuff that's a little goofy, but could work:

EASTER ISLAND HEADS

they make a lot of really neat stuff... definitely going to use some of these in finishing up my guard army

I saw one who used Tryants or something like tha from woodelf army as he was playing a exodite list he also had that Treedude thing Orion or whatever as his avatar. It was goofy.

yeeeeeuuuuuup I remember that army; right here:

Unfortunately while this is as amazingly cool army, i was looking for something that suits a conventional eldar army.

Its just an idea, but they are fairly easy to sculpt due to thier bubbly look.

someone made around 30 a while ago and only spent £20 on putty.

just by using a wire base frame then building it up you can pose them however you want, and it was taking him around 5 hours to make each one (production que style)

Oh wow never thought of sculpting them; is there a tutorial or something on it; i mean not with GS because thats more for detail work if you can send me the link that would be great!
