Dwango Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 As I've been collecting Eldar since the 90s (on and off mind) and with the new range coming out. I thought I'd start a separate thread for my Mymeara Craftworld here. Seems fitting. It also links in with the Anger and Arrogance event. I'm going to try and be a bit more active in the forum too. Here's the avatar and a couple of the wave serpents I've completed so far this year as well as a couple of units I've done over the last few years. This will hopefully expand quite considerably over the next few months. Thanks for looking.

Captain Coolpants Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I've recently been trying to paint an avatar after a loooong break from painting. I must say that I'm finding it so difficult lol. Not matter what I do I'm not happy with it. But yours looks great!

Dwango Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 Cheers Captain. Which one are you on with? If it's of any help I airbrushed all the High (low??) lights in then worked backwards kind of. Getting the light colours down first definitely helped.

Dread Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Wow! It all looks great. Im about to paint some more up too. Also looking to do something different from my old scheme. Yours is giving me some ideas. Dwango 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373457-craftworld-mymeara/#findComment-5800814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Coolpants Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Mine is the sword holding version of yours. I've also gone turquoise with my groin cloth/tabard thing. But I wasn't sure if I should go turquoise head vanes or hair. I think I'm just using reference material that's waaaay above my painting level lol. So I'm never happy. When I feel up to finishing it, I'll probably post it somewhere here too. Thanks for the inspiration Dwango 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373457-craftworld-mymeara/#findComment-5800847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrawlingCleaner Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Oh man, the green fade on the Guardians is lovely I'm looking forward to seeing more!

When I feel up to finishing it, I'll probably post it somewhere here too. Thanks for the inspiration I think head vanes being turquoise could work but I think you'll need to do the hair differently, perhaps red to match the body or black/white like a classic Jain zar. Either way I'll look forward to seeing it done. I do find that sometimes going back to a troublesome model after a bit of time helps get the look I'm going for. I think subconsciously you work it out in your head!! Thanks Dread, what are you planning to paint up next? Cheers Trawling, the green fade is what brought me to Mymeara. I think the scheme is relatively unique in the 40k universe. I have a quick question for you all. I've built 10 wraithguard/blades and have been magnetising various options. I was looking to magnetise the right are at the wrist so I can swap out the axe for a sword. I am wondering if I should just glue the axe and run them as an axe sword combo for the ghost sword option? Saves time and faffing. Do you guys think this would look ok or should i just stick with magnetising everything?

Wulf Vengis Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 It's very cool to see the FW Serpent and GW Serpent so close like that. The color schemes are very crisp and clear too. Very nice work all around. I love seeing the Mymeara colors man. So cool.

Dwango Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 Hey sorry for the late reply and thanks both for your comments. My next offering is 10 Wraithguard. I'm on with a few quins, a converted webway gate and 2 wraithlords next.

MithrilForge Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 WoW nice wraithguard, your fast too !, I like your bases, they aren't over the top but they're nicely done and contrast well with the models 2x The White guns stand out really well, and well painted to boot !!

Dwango Posted May 3, 2022 Author Share Posted May 3, 2022 Cheers Mithril. I did enjoy them although painting white can get tedious. They're magnetised so I have the blades and cannons to paint too! I have been busy, even though I've not posted for a while. I've completed a Phoenix bomber, some quinns, a webway gate, a Cobra and a Lynx. As always c&c welcome.

Tyriks Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Are you freehanding the Mymeara symbols? They're very clean, I can't tell if they're transfers or stencils or something.

Dwango Posted May 6, 2022 Author Share Posted May 6, 2022 Thanks Mithril. If they were plastic that would be immense! Hey Nemesor, I'd love to say they are free hand but they're not. All decals, same for the Sunblitz Brotherhood Phoenix. They were created for me by a frater on here I believe.
