The Good, The Bad, The Aeldari - Event now closed

I'm still unpacking but I'm sure I can find something to add to this! As much as indomitus has finally given me a 'modern' project to work on I do have a back catalogue of aeldari to close out too :) (alongside all the other back catalogue projects!)

I pledge to paint these members of Craftworld Laenyrchal-

 

2x Wraithlords

4x War Walkers

Along with their various heavy weapons, which are magnetized and not pictured...

Because my brain hates me. I was awake rather early this morning.

So thought I'd slap on the 2 most prevalent base colours. And threw a wash on them. And post this progress pic.

 

The lack of corsair mention in the latest warhammer book updates has definitely knocked my enthusiasm for the models though

I'd like to. But I'm already very deep into my grey knights project.

But I have a fair amount of Eldar corsairs to finish!

If you complete and Corsairs and want a Cosair badge, I'm happy to make you one. Same goes for Exodites :wink:
Heck! Since you've been nice enough to offer, then I can't really say no can I? lol.

So I, captain coolpants, shall vow this 5 man unit of space pirate corsair skweavers.

I won't be properly panting the bases though, as I haven't decided what I want for the army yet (thinking maybe snow, but not sure).

It would be rude not to :wink: Very cool to see Corsairs and to see your update too with the start of your scheme, orange is very under-represented. Great stuff!

With a 3 to 1 swing to the banshees;

I, Dwango, vow to complete 1 unit of 5 Howling Banshees, inc exarch, and the pheonix lord Jain Zar before November 14th

More Banshees, I love it :wub: Can't wait to see where this goes mate!

The enemies of Craftworld Laenyrchal shall be crushed under mechanical cloven hooves! can't wait to see these!

I'm blown away by how many people want to participate, can't wait to see completions!

I suppose I should also vow something, I was trying to figure out a scheme for my Dire Avengers and now I've got it down, I'm ready to vow!

 

I, TrawlingCleaner, vow to complete 10 Dire Avengers by November 14th

Ugh, I just realized I wrote the wrong date on the post it. Anyway, I'm going with the axe and shield loadout, but the arms will be magnetized. I'm also going to try to pull off some kind of power weapon/energy glow, which is a little out of my comfort zone--I'm a rudimentary painter at best.

 

Yesterday's progress:

  • painted the death jester's cape to prep for airbrush
  • shadowseer progress day 1 is mostly blocking in some colors and placing too subtle highlights on the blue streamers

Please let me know if you prefer simple hyperlinks over these large images.

Wow nice to see Aeldari coming out of the woodwork ;-) , I’ve base

coated my Lhamaean but I’ll post a progress pic when it’s a bit better to look at !.

@captain cool pants - nice orange !!

 

@The blood raven- nice progress, I can see the subtle highlights so all good !

P.s I’m glad Trawlingcleaner actually made a vow !! lol !!

I, urkh, vow to paint three eldar guardian windriders by Nov 14th. I will then post my entire (small) craftworld army on the forums for the first time.

Images are absolutely fine BloodRaven, I love the blue. Great work so far! :biggrin.:

I, Sandalphon, vow to complete this ancient relic of a farseer by November 14th.

Furthermore, should I uncover more of these relevantly neglected projects, and get my mojo back, with time to spare, intend to add them also.. i know there are some jetbikes and exodite knights and all sorts of things lying in wait... I also vow to do more than a goblin green base :wink:

Thought I'd do another update.

Had some time between customer phone calls today, so thought I'd do some sneaky painting!

Definitely won't be trying it again though, its ended up a little sloppy. In person you can absolutely see the poor attempt in orange/yellow layers lol. Not much blending at all.

But an update is an update!

The blending on these are incredible :wub: If you're doing a whole corsair force like that I can't wait

I, Snazzy vow to complete one unit of 9 Wyches by November 14th.

Welcome Snazzy! Another True Kin to the cabal/cult/coven!

Day two's work.

The blue is gorgeous, I look forward to seeing more!

I went back over the highlights on the Dire Avengers to brighten them up a bit as the highlights weren't that visible, I also go the Catapults started, need to tidy them up and highlight

Why thank you! The idea was to do a whole army like this. But with the lack of corsair mention in the new imperial armour book. I think they may be dead in the water ...

 

Here's a link to what I started a lil while back though. Have about double that, that are still just base coated and need finishing.
