Your modelling skills are second to none sir! A real exciting project to watch unfold.

Thanks very much for the kind comments both. Most of the army is painted as far as the primary colours go, so updates should be more regular. I wouldn't know about second to none BlessMyBeard, but certainly boosts the ego, lol.

Progress is a tad slow at the moment, on a awkward shift at work this week which pretty much rules out air brushing work due to the compressor. Kids off to bed when I get in so to loud to have running. Don't want to use a brush for the most part the Altansar CW rune. However I managed this morning quickly(literally 10 minutes ago) to test out the 4th stencil I cut out on a old test Falcon for this army.

Side ones a little faint, but its just to get an idea. When I have plenty of time the stencil will be held in place and lined up nicely. The locations I have in mind for most of the tanks are (from the pilots point of view) forward left wing and on the right behind the jet intake as in the pic above. I'll either hand paint the little wiggly line above the top triangle or might just leave it off.

Looking at the results and the stencil, looks like I'll have to make the single line up the middle a little longer to almost touch the top triangle square part.

I think I've finished this one now. So it took a while to get the courage to paint the Altansar runes on, and about 20+ attempts to get the wiggly bit at the top of the rune just right. Gonna leave it at that just in case something... 'runes' it

(well I thought it was funny). I'll probably see something that got over looked, but for now here it is.

C&C please, I love it, but want to know what others think. More of something?, just right?

**serathnal**

I think it looks exceptional.

Nicely painted. I like the glow in the end of the gun and the gems are done well.
And good job on the runes, very neat.

Only thing I can see an issue with is the grooves in the engine intakes could be darker to make them look more like holes in a vent, but that's me.

**Eberious**

Thanks very much serathnal,

Dr H, lol. Told you all I would of missed something, even as right in front of my face obvious. Fixed.

Finished these just at the start of the weekend. Found a Eldar "alphabet" letter translation thingy. If its correct or not, I don't know. But it'll be the lettering I'll be using. I was going to write just plain english lettering, but I'm sure you would agree that wouldn't look quite right.

Also done a production line thing here with a pile of magnetised heavy weapons. Have more but was enough for run one. Bare wraithbone with purple gems. CC weapons will have red gems, just to mix it up and give those weapons an "insert appropriate word I'm looking for here" of hunger for blood.

The WL hands aren't finished. Will be the black and red colour scheme when done.

C&C welcome.

Next up will be 3 war walkers.

I love your Maugan Ra, It's just want he needed. Looks fantastic. I am so inspired I will try to make my own!

(Making an Altansar army)

P.s your other figures are fantastic!
