`Yo, men! Look at those xeno wussies! We'll beat `em up in hand-to-hand with no doubt! CHARGE!`
As usual, no airbrushing.

It is on sale. If you interested in buying it, PM me for details. The eldar is can be removed from the base, so you can play with it.

Amazing, as with all of your works!

Whilst the painting is excellent, the head of the Wych is looking the wrong way. It needs to be tilted down a little more, as ATM the models really are not interacting with one another and their contact is purely incidental. Have the Wych look at the Guardsman will go a long way to increasing the interaction of the models in this piece.

I sort of disagree with Grimtuff. I think they are interacting. Though I do agree the Wych should probably look down more, therefore to better enjoy Sergeant Joe's suffering and death. Unless he is to be a slave. In which case, the Wych would still need to look down as she nets him or knocks him out. I love the dying guardsman in the trench. It looks so realistic and lifelike. If you wanted to get really crazy you might put a few splinters into the armour of the dying guard, and maybe even Sergeant Joe himself.

Very nice, wish I could paint like that, but...... I think the sgt looks too clean and fresh, especially for having been trench fighting and compared to the dying trooper, just think he'd benefit from being a little more 'dirty/grubby' in appearance

I did the exact same thing but with a space marine for a pain token counter

This makes me feel ashamed of my own painting...thanks!

Just kidding that looks awesome, except I can't help but feel for the plight of that poor sergeant! I'll dedicate my next xenos kill to him!

Exquisite technique! Bravo!

I think it's the perfect amount of grubby v. detail. It's clean enough to show the subtle detail (tatoos, shading)

Phenomenal, phenomenal work

Wow.

Are the numbers on the chainsword meant to be upside down on it for a reason?

Not a fan of NMM. You did a good job none the less. I do see the head issue. Seems it could be looking down a bit to me as well.

Just superb.

I like that she's not looking at him. For all his macho bluster, she sees him as a speed bump and is already thinking about the next kill.

Thanks for sharing!

Touche!

Lol can't believe all the nitpicking, that thing is amazing, nuff said. For me the head gives the model arrogance, as if it's already looking for its next target. If you said that this had won a GD I wouldn't have been surprised. Absolutely brilliant.

Excellent work! I don't really find a problem with the pose myself, gives it the flair of arrogance you would expect from the Eldar.

Holy crap! Why are all the best painters from everywhere besides America?

What a lovely work of art you have created. Very cool.

Thanks to allof you. See, the head is as downed as it can be - it`s the same problem as SM, crushing his head wit shoulderpads while his hand are up =). So... Looks like the eldar is already choose her next victim and watching it =)

that diorama looks great! i like your painting style a lot. The whole thing looks like a painting. great job.

Gobsmaked, there is no fault to be found in this work of art what so ever!

The air of arrogance from the elf is perfect as this is exactly how I imagine Space Elves to be...

Dying guardsman 10/10...

1 last note, I think the NMM is of pure win and deffo needs a tut for your fans at some point in your busy schedule

TSD

I would agree, your NMM is very smooth.
I'm assuming blending. Top notch.

You gotta be kidding me.
Are you a freakin' wizard?

This sort of skill is beyond my imagination.

Are you sure you're not lying to us and you did use an airbrush? I mean this looks gorgeous! My question is, how did you get the tattoos on Guardsman Joe's arms? They look perfectly faded into the arms, and so clean too!

How do you get such crips transitions and colours, it looks entirely airbrushed @w@ if I could paint my dark eldar army like that id be beyond happy xd

Oh, thank you. I`m really happy to see some of you can`t belive this is a brush-painted It is a best praise to me.

Very beautiful and very inspiring! I'm showing this to my friends.

Just incredible paint work. The NMM is flawless, the detail on this mini-diorama is great. It draws me in and makes me want to look at it for hours. The colors and the realism is awesome!

Awsome
Just awsome.
Kudos to you!

Absolutely astounding!
