No idea where in Dakka to put this....

I'm into all things Eldar (and only Eldar). Dark, Harly, regular, now Corsairs.

Anyone have good ideas that would make each model translation? I'm thinking of focusing base models off of DEldar but am totally wide open to all suggestions.

Baron, Prince, Void Dreamer
Elites: Malevolent band, Voidstorm band, Wasp Squad
Troops: Cloud Dancer band, Ghostwalker band, Reaver band
Fast attack: Hornet squad (Bikes?), Nightwings, Phoenix squad, Vyper squad
Heavy: Balestrike band, Fire Prism (eldars, no doubt), Fire Storm squad, Lynx, Night Spinner, Warp Hunter
LoW: Vampire Raider

Either the 40k section or the modelling section would have been better options than general discussion...

Moved to 40k.

Since most of these have models, use them or make appropriate conversions to their 'close enough' vanilla version. Vypers are Vypers. Cloud Dancers are Jetbikes. Wasps are War Walkers. Not everything is going to be dark and spikey.

Some things, like Felarchs, HQs and actually the Cloud Dancers can be used with DE models though. Reavers are still DE Jetbikes, and I am using my 3rd Edition Reavers with the scorpion tail guns as my Cloud Dancers. Incubi would make a great Baron or Felarch, as long as the weapons are modeled appropriately. You MIGHT be able to get away with Mandrakes as Ghostwalkers, but Eldar Rangers suit the role better. Reavers are litterally whatever Troop Choice you want. Wych, Guardian, Kabalite, doesn't matter.

Things like the Hornets, Lynx, Vampire Raider, Nightwings and so on, the fancy schmancy Forge World models, they will be extremely difficult to use something else as. They need to be the same size and obviously have the same weapons. So, it won't be easy finding proxies that can make that all work together.

I have been playing Eldar and Dark Eldar to represent Corsairs since before you could allie them together:
