So temptation took over and I bought some Eldar bits After a bit of a think I decided to make them from Craftworld Ulthwe (I've always had a soft spot for Ulthwe more than the other Craftworlds).

I decided the Farseer would be my test model and here's how it came out (apologies for the picture quality, my phone is on its way out :/):








I'd be delighted to hear what you guys think (mainly as this is the first time I've properly Highlighted anything

cheers for reading

Looks very good - I particularly like how you've done the spear handle.

Cheers dude

Here's a couple of other test models:






Constructive criticism would be very much appreciated

Cheers

I like them!!

Maybe add a little splash of reds and blues on the gemstones, and youve got a great looking army!!

Keep up the pace!

Very nice man. More pics!

Nice neat work, really suits the eldar.

cheers guys,

I know what you mean about the gems. I was gonna leave them (I was being lazy), but after you mentioned it i'll whizz some paint on them

looking good
I think the highlight on the black jumps to a bright colour to quickly. a bit more blending, fading up to white would look great.
but as others have said its all nice and neat which is always a good start.
I particularly like the farseers helmet, looks like its made up of segments rather than one piece.
really nice so far though

What wash did you use on the farseer's helmet?

]Looks awesome

Sorry, I've been a bit quiet guys, work has been busy as hell (the joys of retail near christmas),

The wash I used on the helmet was just regular Agrax Earthshade, I use it on near enough everything

and my latest addition to the strike force: Khaela Mensha Khaine:







I also decided to change the scenery a bit and added some snow

Damn fine work. Although I feel like Wayne Campbell would concur with me that it wasn't necessary to see Khaine's exposed buttocks.

Kidding aside, amazing job. Black and white are both hard colors to work with. Really digging that Farseer. Seriously, good work all around.

An awesome looking force man!

Cheers for the kind words guys, theres a load more to get done so i'll be adding them as and when they get completed.

Cheers all

And the leader of my allied Dark Eldar, Lelith Hesperax:

Nice work, especially on the Avatar!

You need some Storm Guardians next.

Im afraid the Storm Guardians will be a while, they're rubbish on the table top haha

No strike force is complete without the boss man himself, Eldrad Ulthran:

Lovely looking models sir. I especially like the bone on the farseers helmet, looks very nice. Also the highlights are nice and neat, especially for a first attempt at highlighting.

Heey! That's not a strike force! I see some grav tanks!
