Looking good!

I would really go to the edges with the white of the faceplate, it works really well with the red and black. And again lovely work on this oldschool mini.

I like that very much, the transition now from bone to white is beautiful.

i missed a bunch o things it seems.
Then again, this one will be especially interesting.

The faceplate works better now. Really draws the eye.

You might try one more layer of blending between the pure white and the brownish white. The line is a little severe.

I think the faceplate looks better now, too. Draws the eye to it more.

Thanks you guys hoping to finish him up soon.

After looking at it again I can see how sharp the transition is, another blend to see if it looks less severe. Thanks Gitz!

Redid the faceplate ( why does white always look chalky close up) and finished his base. Here is some pics and one with his boss. I appreciate all the comments and help from my fellow dakkanaughts.

Now back to the grey bin!

Nice work! More Eldar in the world is always good!

Maybe worth chucking some sepia/druchi violet on the gold sword hilt bit to give it some depth ? Looks a bit flat which is a shame coz the rest looks great.

It has one wash of sepia already. I will toss one more on. Thanks Argive.

Much better my friend! Nicely done!

The pair look fantastic together. Nice job!

Nicely finished warlock, the white faceplate looks much more striking now. Cool stuff Yorkright

Added a wash of violet and seraphim to the sword. I think it looks a bit better. Again thank you all for the words of encouragement.
Got bored tonight so I dug up all my Eldar psykers, some of these models go way back to rogue trader days. I wonder if there is anyway to field them all at once.
Thanks for looking!

That's super cool. The original Farseer right up front, old school representing. A lovely collection.

It might have just been the photos as well mind so maybe didn't even need it.

There sure is a way to field all of those psykers!
You can field them all as a warlock conclave. / bunch of farseers. and a bunch of supreme command detachments.

That's effecitvly an all psychic army. Mind you it wont be partiulary good probably without additional support but looking at it you have two conclaves (one foot one bikes) and 4 farseers. plus the ynnari psykers and the harlie guy. Its a perfectly legal army as far as I can tell.

I just love that group shot! So colorful, so exciting to look at! Fantastic work my friend!

Now THAT is Eldar!

--Brian

The two together look great, complement each other nicely.

And the group psyker shot is beautiful, old-school rocking it like a boss.

Nice bright army that is coming along there Yorkright.

Exalted.

Cheers,

CB

. I came up with a 2k list, a battalion and 2 supreme command detachments. Totally crazy but I may run it sometime.

Thank you Gitz. Hoping we can get a game in sometime in the near future. Perhaps a Mantis Warrior vs Blood Angels game...

Wow, thank you very much!

So next up is some dire avengers led by an Exarch. Their backstory is they are followers of the Farseer and Warlock who are searching for a lost relic. Stolen from a shrine on a Exodite planet by a chaos war band they hope to retrieve it and return it to its shrine. The seer will be gathering forces as he travels the webway.

Awesome array of Psykers, I can’t believe that they can all be fielded together! They all look great, but the new bunch steal the show for me! Looking forward to see what you do with the Dire Avengers, will they be in a similar scheme to the recent warlock/farseer or a shrine?

Yeah my first thought was well was in wonder if they'll be in your scheme or some variation?

Love those bright old-school style Warlocks. I was really torn when it came to it, but I stripped my ones form that era and repainted them.

@Gobert and Graven good question about the scheme.. first thought was just paint them in the GW scheme. Now I am thinking incorporating the something to match the HQs. Red helms, black faceplates and white crests? Maybe leave armour blue with wraithbone weapons? Throw me a few ideas.

That's a nice collection of psykers!

And I think matching helmets and faceplates would be a good move to show, that they belong to your recent HQs.

I think black faceplates, white with blue and yellow accents.

I'd love that Yorkright... once the pandemic is over... if we both survive...

Update on Seers retinue. Going with red helms with black faceplates. Want to incorporate yellow somewhere still having a think on it.

Thanks for looking.
