Eldar corsairs are FW list combining few Craftworlders with some Dark Eldars and adding Coirsair troops unit.

Ynnari is new mainstream sub faction again combining Craftwworld, Harlequin and Dark Eldar units (but almost everything except Avatars and Haemonculus and some other random things)
There are 3 Innari specific characters

Under 8th Edition Eldar Pirates are great fun!

Pirates are around since the introduction of the Eldar.
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Eldar_Corsair

They were fleshed out a bit more in 2011 Imperial Armour Volume Eleven - The Doom of Mymeara:
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Imperial_Armour_Volume_Eleven_-_The_Doom_of_Mymeara (currently OOP)

The good thing is that all units are covered in the current 8th Edition Imperial Armour – Index: Xenos book:
https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-AT/Imperial-Armour-Index-xenos-2017

Pirates are just crying to get a wild mixture of craftworld and Dark Eldar equipment.

Next mini - the Yncarne. Every Ynnari army needs one, or?

The Yncarne - Avatar of Ynnead. Painted by Peter Zuidgeest of Scar’s Minis and some retouches here and there by me. The Yncarne is the Avatar of the newly awakened Eldar God Ynnead.

Nice paint :)

I am REALLY not a fan of the miniature though... The flame effect is good in principle but hasn't been particularly well executed by the digital sculptors.

It's a shame because the character behind the weird flame effect looks pretty cool :)

Miles better than the studio model and it actually kinda tempts me to get one.

Nice work. I'm well out of the fluff knowledge of the Eldar. Is this following what GW are bringing out or are you putting your own spin on things?

I built mine few days ago and I am really impressed by this model although gluing psychic blast from 18 (?) parts was silly :)
But I am quite intimidated by your model and was wondering how to paint this bloob of energy

I like your yellow oranges a lot!
Great job here!

Thanks folks, Peter really make this model shine.
We had some constructive discussion via What'sApp how to paint it.
In the end it all came together pretty nicely.
I am REALLY not a fan of the miniature though... The flame effect is good in principle but hasn't been particularly well executed by the digital sculptors.

LOL, honestly my thoughts exactly when I first saw the mini.
I bought the box because of the other two characters.  ;)
For the Yncarne I thought long and hard how to remove the flames, but since they are more or less an integral part of the mini I gave up end settled instead for a cool colour scheme.

The current trend in minis to add flames, smoke etc is still NOT my thing ...
(Maybe I get really old...)

See my website please... (I quote some of the "official" background there)
Otherwise just search the net for "Ynnari"!

Lasblaster Corsairs with jump packs, the mini in the middle is from the new Voidscarred Corsair box, heavy gunner with wraithcannon. On the picture below you can see the nice dragon cloak, I really like these small details!

Nice work.  I find it amusing that I'm finally selling off my 40K armies when they start supporting Eldar properly.  I did pick up the Corsair box for use with "not"cromunda style games.  A good looking kit, though I haven't put any under the clippers just yet.

For small, non-army battles, Corsairs are one of the coolest Eldar factions that has never received proper love until now.  I did run some proper Eldar pirates when playing 2nd edition.
