Hi there.

I've been publishing on Warseer before, but now I'm here and I will start posting images of the past and of the new things I'm going to complete.
I hope you will enjoy them and feel free to comment on them

Feel also free to visit me on CoolMiniOrNot or on Instagram.

First of the latest model I finished. It's an old one, but you will find quite some old minis in my collection.
My schema is Biel-Tan like, but I'm using another Craftworld rune based on the one from Biel-Tan and Ynnead to reflect a scion Craftworld.

Classic Eldar Shrieker Jetbike

**GiraffeX**

Thats very nice, the thorn pattern looks amazing.

**youwashock**

Bring on the titan.

**Hendarion**

Hahaha, I didn't know I was so famous for still not having finished my Phantom Titan

I can tell I made progress with the base and I will continue with the base when the other 3 bikes of this squad are (soon) finished.

**Hendarion**

My last finished squad. Quite unusual color scheme and I can imagine not many people like the choice of colours, but it's on purpose controversely and after all, it's probably colours an Eldar would fear most.

Eldar Farseer

**bebopdrums2424**

ive followed your blog on warseer, and am glad you are showing off your work to i think a larger audience. absolutely gorgeous work.

**Hendarion**

Thank you. My voyage over on warseer however has an end, so if you want to stay following me, it will be here.

**sockwithaticket**

Those blends! This level of beauty is fully appropriate for Eldar.

**Hendarion**

Here's some work in progress for those who don't already know it.

Eldar Phantom Titan upper body work in progress

**Ifalna**

That is some incredibly smooth blending, absolutely gorgeous work!

Do you have any tips on how to achieve such a smooth transition between shade and highlight for us lesser mortals?

**Cosmic**

Everything about these Eldar is spectacular!

**Hendarion**

Thanks.

@Ifalna: Lots of intermediate colours, training and a lot of time. If you want to know more, you can find various good tutorials on youtube about feathering, two-brush-blending, blending and wet blending. I'm often doing a mix of all these methods. Depending on the colour and transition one technique more than the others.

Because of all the green, today some contrast:

Classic Eldar Fire Dragons

**Ifalna**

Holy feth.

Pulling off a strong black to red is hard enough, but those are practically glowing. That orange is almost fluorescent.

<3 you are such an inspiration.

**ColonelFazackerley**

Very pretty. Blend black to white highlights, and then over the white with red, I am guessing.

**SlaveToDorkness**

Looks like all colors to me instead of over a gray gradient.

Spectacular, glad you left Seer and arrived here!

**mars2024**

Hey Hendarion! I used to check in on your thread on Warseer. Glad to see you posting again. Your stuff is a real inspiration. I can't wait to see what you've been up to.

**Ratius**

Incredible style you have. Subtle in parts but then darn striking. Wow.

**War Kitten**

I wish i could paint like that.... Simply gorgeous

**Hendarion**

Thanks for all the kind words.

Sadly I'm a very very very slow painter, so I'll keep posting some old stuff. Although actually I just finalized this one not too long ago including the pilot and base.

Eldar Nightwing Interceptor

**Hendarion**

Finally finished quad #1

Votes on CMON appreciated. Comments welcome as always.

**evildrcheese**

Gorgeous minis. I really love the scheme you've used on the Dark Reapers and Fire Dragons.

**Hendarion**

Thank you

**MuchoDonchatz**

Man your style is so clean, great contrast and smooth. Great stuff, looking forward to more. The star fighter jet thing is out of sight.

**Mymearan**

Holy bananas man. Some of the best old-school 'Eavy Metal style I've ever seen.

**Hendarion**

Rough and quick shot at my painting desk. Full squad of these will be coming. All 5 have they armour-plates and freehand on the generator finished by now (not finished on the picture though). Still need to complete weapons, black suits and gems.

Eldar Warp Spider work in progress

**evildrcheese**

Wow. Now that is cool.

Excellent freehand, as ever.

**Hendarion**

Squad finished! Comments welcome.

Votes on CMON also very welcome

**ReductiveTendencg**

Amazing work. I particularly like the Dark Reaper unit, they've just got a certain something that keeps you looking.
