With all the photos i've been posting of my eldar in progress, i figured i might as well get a log going of all the ones i've finished so far. Hopefully i can get some comments / critiques and make the army overall that much better.
I decided to collect eldar after doing 2000 points of tyranids. I really love playing 'Nids, but hate painting them, so i took the easy route and just dipped them. The eldar i bought based on the awesomeness of the models, and they are mostly a painting project first and a playing army second.
Background:
Eldar based on Alatioc, with Rangers and Dire Avengers making up the majority of the troup choices.
<more fluff and info will be added as i get to it >
The two colours that i'm hoping will tie the army together are the Alatioc blue and the Copper, which is my cross to bear on this project it turns out (see the post below with the failed first attempt at warpspiders)
What i'm hoping to get painted in short order:
1 falcon (80% done)
weapons for 3 vypers (50% done)
5 Fire Dragons + 1 Exarch (1 fire Dragon Done)
9 Dire Avengers + 2 Exarchs (5 DA's done, 1 exarch Done)
10 Warp Spiders
Longer term
10 Rangers / Pathfinders (old models)
6 Harlequins
1 Farseer with Jetbike
1 falcon
1 Wraithlord
10 guardians with 1 heavy weapon platform (3 done)
Still sitting in their boxes
3 War Walkers
1 Wraithlord
Squad of Banshees
another Squad of Dire Avengers
3 Jet Bikes (1 will be used for the Farseer)
1 Autarch
1 Avatar
another vyper
on the wishlist
2 wave serpents
more harlequins
new models of the Rangers
2 fire prisms
I'll add one post to this blog per unit type...
