In The Grim Darkness of the Future, I Do Whatever I Want (Eldar!)

[Inso]

There's some fantastic work going on in this "blog" . The Banana Splits will be a great addition .

If, by any chance, you are looking to have them in buggy format, you could do worse than the buggies in this link (half way down):

Banana splits are a great idea, but where can you get Charlie

It seems to have been a long time since my last entry here again! A lot going on, but I won't bore you with my personal life. We're all here for escape and make-believe and pictures of figures and games! 


The Black Rabbit of Inle is eternal. Two versions, based for my fantasy figures/terrain and sci-fi. I will add them to my Eternals -- Life, Death,  and Kev Adams. 




Ambassador Khan Cern. He has no patience for your shenanigans.




My mutants.









Mercenaries. Many more to be painted. From Satyr Art Studio/Drew Williams.





I also finally played my first Five Parsecs from Home game, using my finished Five Bananas From Home crew. Things did not go well. At all.

I started documenting it on my blog, but have more narrative and the next mission in progress.

Fantastic stuff all round, but I especially love the little droid thing (?) with an Ork bolter for a head.

Cool, my favourite is the big eyed one.

I went over and visited your blog. Wow! That is an extensive collection of figs for your Sci-Fi games.  Great stuff! I've bookmarked your blog and will check back regularly...

where is the ambassador from?

That boar mutant is inspired. You need to make more, do a wolf version next.

Fading Suns. I hadn't even heard of it until I posted that pic on IG. I have several more, and apparently the figure I used for Drooper in my 5 Pasrsecs cerw is from that range as well.

I had planned on keeping a log of the Five Banana's adventures & misadventures and posting them here and on my blog, but haven't been very good at keeping up with that. I still have photos and notes, but not sure if I will go back and write anything up or if I will just continue to move forward. I haven't played any games for about 4 months. Most of my painting since then has been fantasy/spooky stuff, except for some terrain. I just need to edit & upload photos.

However, my 2025 Old World Army Challenge has started. I took last year off, and had painted fantasy for a few years before that. But I am returning to the Eldar Pirates project I did in 2021. Introduction post is here:

I survived the first month of Old World Army Challenge 8!

Below is what I painted.

(OK, I only painted a little bit on the Cadillac Ranch, most of that was other people's work.)

I love the grey with pops of colour Zero - simple but beautiful and fits the pointy eared gits aesthetic perfectly (my long term favourite opponent is an Eldar player  ).

I agree, that grey scheme with a little colour on each figure works really well. I like the terrain pieces, too!

Lovely retro Eldar!
