I made these almost exclusively from the new Guadians kit. There are a few extra parts added from a few other Eldar/Druhkari kits, but I set out to make each model at least 90% Guardian.
Lore-wise this unit is made of Aeldari that had previously been Aspects and decided to honor that by showing their colors.
I'm particularly proud of the idea of having the Shining Spear "drive" the weapon platform and the Dark Reaper calling out targets for the Missile launcher.

Cool. I like the fire dragon and striking scorpion particularly. You could probably make whole squads of them and no one would notice.

Agreed. With the limited parts in the box (only 2 fusion guns, 2 power swords, etc) I'd recommend getting 2 boxes. But with that you could easily get:
5 Dragons (add the lance barrel to a flamer for the Exarch fire pike)
5 Scorpions
5 Banshees
5 Avengers

Alternatively you could get 10 Scorpions instead of the 5 Banshees or Avengers

The Avenger looks good too. That little crest bit on the back of the helmet does a lot to sell it as an Avenger, though I'd be tempted to get the proper heads from a bits site. Then maybe green stuff a butt cloth on them to further highlight the differences from guardians.

Woah these look amazing

This is very cool. I want to get a set and do something like this.

These look great, but I don't recognise the Aspect for the black model at the back with the white face mask. What is that one?

Looks like a dark eldar incubi. The incubi were founded by the fallen striking scorpions phoenix lord, Arhra, so they are kind of like dark eldar aspect warriors.

What a great idea, and really nicely implemented. Thanks for sharing!

Impressive, most Impressive

Really cool idea and I love the execution here! Great work.

Wow, those look great. I'm honestly more excited by those as aspect conversions than I am as a guardian squad, but I'm very orthodox about my edlar.

Great work!
