Dee Does Eldar....think i was just sick in my mouth a little

[Mrdee]

Cheers guys

Aaah, come on. It's not that sad he doesn't paint a lot else but GW. 


But yeah, I'm along with everyone else in thinking that jaw dropping is imminent.

I have a crap load of non GW stuff to paint it's unreal

Great paint!

Beautiful work, I like the shading on the blue.

[dwartist]

bloody nora - that's stunning work - particularly considering the speed at which you work!

[Elbows]

As one of the most underrated races in the GW fold, I'm happy to see this.  No longer a GW gamer, but an Eldar gamer for 12 years or more (exclusively, believe it or not).  Nice to see them get some appreciation.

Also, I think their models lend themselves to more breathtaking paintjobs than most.

[Col. Aubrey Bagshot]

I think its the colours!
Yellow, bright blue and red jewels.....

I go's back to vague memories of other peoples Rogue Trader amry's when we were all kids, or at least teenagers/students...

No one really paints using those bright colours anymore...
Its all weathering and washes and AFV techniques form Spain....

Please dont spoil it MrDee....
Leave the OCD Gay Space Elves alone in their Ajax and Flash soaked Craft World...

Lovely painting. the blending on the blue is particularly striking.

[basaint]

Just so Im clear, you're going to play with these EYECANDIES??!!

SOO SWEET on the painting!

Oh, yeah, these are his "quick and dirty" gaming level paintjobs...he saves the "real" stuff or competition pieces.

Heh!  I can't paint half that well, but yesterday I was told my style was too fancy 'n' slow for tabletop standard.

Echoes: lovely yellows, and fantastic blending on that blue.

Guilty as charged

yes mate and then probably sell them soon afterwards most likely to fund either more tattoos or a reaver

I used to have the odd person say that to me as well a few years back mate.....paint to your standard and your speed and tell such people to do one

I have decided i now hate gems........



but they are out the way would have got these finished today but I had to go to Exeter to give a mate a tutorial on airbrush useage.

[Commander Vyper]

What's the next unit mate? Guardians? Hope you got a harlequin troupe to add to this force.

[Elbows]

I don't know if an Iyanden Ghost Army is still an option...but that would mean an awful lot more Wraithguard.  What is the size of the army/force you'll be doing?

PS: I was going to make a quip about gems...and if you think you're done...you're not.  I don't think any Eldar model comes without some gems.  After all, gotta keep those souls somewhere right?

No, 2 6 strong wraith units, 1 spiritseer, 1 farseer, 1 crimson hunter exarch - 750points and thats it, I do have another 6 Wraithguard/wraithblades to paint though and I will most likely add a wraithlord as I have always loved those models, maybe a wave serpent but that will be it.  I haven't even finished these anyway

Yes there is a £30 Iyanden suppliment you have to buy ontop of the eldar codex....which muggins here purchased.  But even without the Iyanden book you can take a Spiritseer as a HQ choice and it makes Wraithguard and Wraithblades troop.  750 points
