Sorry for the long absence but I got kind of distracted in the last three weeks. I was lucky to get my hands on a very nice Eldar Army from a mate of mine. I spent the last weeks to get the dust of all the lil' figures and I needed to fix lots of broken stuff and chipped paint.
I'm really excited about the 'dar because the play style of my regular space wolves was a little boring the last few games and I always looked for a new challenge. That was my initial plan with the Death Korps but I just couldn't resist those nice blue dudes .

So my schedule just got a huge overhaul - I will try to get all Eldar painted and ready for the tabletop in the next weeks. There isn't that much left except two wave serpents, a forgeworld nightspinner, a harlequin shadowseer and some spare guns for my weapon platforms. In between I plan to add some new scenery to my tabletop to match the desert look, as you can see from the following pictures there is a imperial bunker already in construction.

To add some minor excitement to this post here are some random shots of my current armies, my gaming table and the paint station!

The new Alaitoc Eldar:




My Wolves (still some wip):




Some Death Korps (with VIP Vendetta and Basilisk):



My Necrons with a posponed "mexicrons" project:





My current gaming table (slot racing track underneath):



My painting table with the mentioned wip bunker:

Please more Mexicrons

@Moltar Will post some pictures of them soonish. It's kinda sad that this project is halted right now but maybe I will pick them up again if GW gives the 'crons some love with the new dex.

I started paint a Wave Serpent, Nightspinner and one wraithguard as a testmodel. I will post pictures as soon as the airbrush part of the painting is finished.

Here are some photos of the centerpiece of my Eldar Army to keep you entertained:

Very nice work, I think I'm going to steal that mexicrons idea.

Oh my god, I love the mexicrons. The avatar,s nice, but the mexicrons- oh my Gooloogong!!!

I'd like to see more of the Mexicrons too

o man! i'd really like to see some shot of the bar! it's amazing!

Ask and you shall receive!

And i thank yuo! it's really funny, specially the one on the tub!

So thats what they do inside a Monolith always wondered...

DerDom, Thanks! Love those Mexicrons.

Amazing work. Loving the Mexicrons!

Need....more.... MEXICRONS!!!
Because they rock more than anything has rocked before.

You're aware there's a new codex just around the corner of next month right? Perfect opportunity for some immortals converted to a chicano orchestra.

And how about some PIÑATAS??!!

I love the effect on the blade here! Very unique!

I was less impressed with the Mexicrons, but it was good for a laugh

Subbed!

Is that a roach on your gaming table?

the avatar is very very nice. i like the strange greyish bronze color you used. The mexicrons are...well...somewhat insensitive...but i may be more sensitive to this since i live in southern california, which is two hours from the mexican border. But its all in good fun and the monolith is a fun piece.

Love the Mexicrons and the bar, beautiful models.
