A camo eldar army would look kind of cool, if done right.

I have recently been diagnosed with swelling in the brain, so please excuse spelling mistakes and faulty sentences. I am losing my ability to type and talk effectively, but dammit, that is not going to stop me from trying.

Ice or wood both have potential, red/white doesn't look interesting to me.
BTW, where is this pic from? Some Deluxe army paint program?

I agree. Red/white is the best. Blue would probably better, but you've got to give it more contrast than the picture.

In the Webway.

Red and white all the way. The green one appeals to me the least but if it's your favourite what's stopping you painting them like that?
