Hey guys, I just finished (or almost finished) my new Alaitoc Eldar Farseer:

I say almost finished because I'm thinking about painting some Alaitoc or otherwise Eldar symbols on his cape-thing.
If there are any questions about why he doesn't have the standard Farseer hand, it's because one of my friends accidentally dropped him and his hand fell off and got lost somewhere in my local gaming store, so I replaced it with a spare guardian hand, from one of the guys who are meant to operate the weapon platform. Here's the usual Farseer, hand intact.

Additionally, I'm looking to get some opinions on the name for this Farseer. I've got some ideas floating around my head, such as Rasileir Ithrain or Ecthelion Telemnar. On the other hand, I could name him after the Farseer from Path Of The Outcast, Anatharan Alaitin, and claim that this is his tabletop incarnation!

Thanks guys!

Agreed! Thanks

For a name, how about Ianta Nomin. It roughly translates to "old wisdom" in elvish.

Hmm, that's a pretty awesome idea. Where did you find this? What kind of Elvish is this? Tolkien? Sorry about the question bombardment

Call him Dave. Everybody knows a Dave.
Nice, neat TT paintjob btw.

I just googled an elven language translator and put in words till something that sounded cool showed up.

I do the same thing for space marines, I just use latin instead.
