Thanx for taking the time to check it out.

Really enjoy looking at your army, nice choice of colours, the only thing that makes me wince is the block highlighting on the wraithlord, somewhat detracts that lovely edge highlighting & almost looks lazy, Contrary to that point the rest of the army is beautiful!

Nice army dude, I like it. Good job.

Wow this army is really amazing , it is really nice when you see someone who has taken their time to make sure that everything is right i mean you even labeled the pictures. The paint scheme looks really neat overall and the colours really work well together. I really like the storm guardians they have really dynamic poses and think bring a bit of movement to the army if you know what i mean.

Great army , Great job.

This is a magnificent army!

I really like the colour scheme, the painting quality, the basing job, everything!

I also apreciate to see old school models among more recent ones.

Lazy or not, I think I really like the look. Might have to steal some ideas, when I get all of my eldar force in the mail in a couple of days. Good work.

What a superb army! I love the different look you've taken with the army, instead of going for the "flamboyant look" and using loads of bright colours, you've stuck to a smaller pallette and the results are spectacluar.

Nicely done. Striking colour scheme, and a solid paintjob.

Thanx all for wonderfull comments. I have to agree on the wraithlord, and I've already started modifying it's head so that the blobb on the head will not be a problem anymore.

Someone's kicking it old school!

I like the unified color scheme and the little conversion touches. Especially moving the power plant on the War Walkers. Have to agree with Khargrim about the Wraithlord hilight though- it's a weak point in an otherwise very solid force.

I like your army shot picture with the units marked. It's a nice touch. Is this going in a magazine or something?

I like the Monolith terrain as well. Is that supposed to be a power-station?

Dude, you did an awesome job
I know some people who dont paint the dire avengers blue, and make them look like regular guardians...
The color scheme is really cool, and it reminds me of the vostroians some how............And i thought avatars were giant.....oh well....Guess ive been playing too much DoW and not enough 40k

Wow, great to see some Eldar on the forums. Great looking army too. Im trying to paint my own Eldar but its super slow going.

Im painting my aspect warriors close to my original colours (dark red, light blue) and not the usual (blue dire avengers, green scorps). I think it looks better, maybe give that a go?

Keep up the great work and pics!!!

Thanx,

No it's not going into a magazine or anything, I just wanted people to see what the 1500 points were.

I to like the monolith terrain, yes it's a powerstation and no I can't take credit for it, it was maid by my friend.

Well I've fixed the blobb on the Wraithlords head an knee. Hope you like it better this way, I do anyway.

Wraithlord looks much, much better now! Really like this army! Well done.

Yeah, that's totally slick.

This is really spectacular... nice work dude!

I love your work, the painting is really well done. I see you have some of the older models, thats pretty sick since they don't have them anymore.

A totally painted army is a nice site on the battlefield - and yours is quite nice indeed!

An accomplishment to be proud of!

Love the new look on the Wraithlord now, and of course the rest of the army. Are the symbols on the Dire Avenger Exarch free hand?

wraithlord pose is boss.

Seconded!

Very nice work!
Particulary nicely done bone colour!

Yeah, I like to have some old models as well. Why not use them since I already have them, and to my surprise some people appear to prefer them over the new ones. I'm just about finished with a unit of old rangers to, I'll post them when they're ready.

Well I'm afraid that my freehand skills are non existent, so I have to "cheat" a bit. What I do is to paint the flag white and then I cut out transfers so that as little of the pastic stuff around them is there. I then put them on and paint over with thin white paint 2-3 times until the transfers have all but disappeared I then use them as a guide for my "free hand" work.

As promised here are my rangers. With them, and a few extra models I own, such as fire dragon exarch, one extra dire avenger and upgrading my farseer to Eldrad I can now play 1750 point games. I think I'll stop here and turn my attention to my next project. Thanx all for great comments on the army.

Eldar Rangers

Nice :-) love the tanks
