Hey gang. I'm working on a new Eldar force, with a Corsair-ish flavor, and I wanted to include some Jetbikes/Shining Spears. I prefer the riders and poses of the Dark Eldar Reaver Jetbikes, but I like the canopies of the Eldar Jetbikes, as they provide a much broader and larger palette for painting/airbrushing/freehand work.

I was wondering, if someone owned both or even better, had both lying about in an unfinished state, if they could check for me if the Eldar canopies would fit reasonably well on the DE Reaver chassis. I don't mind some conversion work (in fact, I quite enjoy it), but I'd like to have a "fact check" before I drop a ton of coin on the Reavers, then spend even more to bitz order the canopies.

Thanks muchly!

Just tested for you, you'd have to green stuff the end of the Windrider canopy on to be able to access the driving mechanism of the Reaver body but so long as you don't mind slightly elongated Jetbikes it should be fine.

Awesome. Thank you very much.
