You certainly keep yourself busy. I was thinking of Eldar, one of the few armies I havent painted yet. Ill see how you handle them and decide if Im gonna take the leap.

Look forward to seeing what you come up with. I'd love to have a pop at painting some Eldar, after painting so many dirty Tyranids lately it'd be a nice change to play around with some clean, crisp, elegant models.

I love eldar models, and think they are super sexy and awesome. Here is what I have done so far.
List of things i did -
create custom base for seer
did minor conversion work to new plastic farseer
did minor conversion work to new plastic wraith guard kit with D-scythes they have bigger shoulder pads
did minor conversion work to the old wraith lord - he now has a feth you blade.
started wraith knight.

Nice poses on the Wraithguards. What's the kit like?
Your Wraithlord makes me chuckle. It had to be done though.

liking the conversion of the spear to a glaive on the Farseer - is that one of the swords from the Wraithguard? (may have to steal that idea...

Stuff looks good so far. However, the blade on the Wraithlord is so large that it just looks ridiculous and detracts from the model.

Finnan steal away, i have long time lurked on your threads. I have found inspiration from there to do a fun pain scheme idea on the wraith.

Yes it had to be done, sadly the model will rarely see table.
The kit is fabulous, so many bits, so much fun work. However, the possibility is limiting.

Noted good sir, it was done for that very point.

As well noted. I will go back one of these days and shrink it down. for now, that work had to be done.
Hmm.. i get that.
Got to play my army twice today. Draw and a Win not bad!

Looking nice so far! Those wraithguard look awesome built and the weapon swap on the farseer looks great.
I like the spirit seer model more now I have seen it built and will definately have to pick one up at some point. I don't have any wraith units in my Eldar yet (I was waiting for plastic guard first) except for one Lord but the ability to up saves on any unit you want if you get the right power is too good to ignore (unlike warlocks who can only join guardians atm).
I do plan to get 10-20 wraith guard/blades and either a wraithknight or 2nd wraithlord at some point so I will have a mini wraith army available for play eventually.
What do you think of the wraithknight? I am not sure about it personally. It doesn't seem to give you much for your 300pts when fully equipped. Although I have to admit a jumping monstrous creature with basically 3 twin linked plasma cannons does sound fun!

At 300pts he is worth it. I plan on using two. They just do to much in an iyenden themed army.

Yes i not sure I have to paint schemes in mind.
Tron Dar - this is going to be a medium dark grey scheme with orangey red lines like Tron, and Eldar lines combined.
Elegant Dar - This is going to be a white and gold scheme, classic and prestigious
I need votes, at least 3 viewers to help me decide.
Here is the guy primed white. Let me know, there is a poll at the top to vote on.
