Eldar project commences - WIP wraithknight and flyer base

Hi guys,

With Blog Wars 5 now behind us the Eldar worship can begin in earnest. It also looks as if I can break the curse of only being able to attend the odd numbered Blog Wars and attend Blog wars 6 later this year. If I'm breaking one tradition I may as well break another and take a non-marine army, thus I'm playing with building a balanced Alaitoc themed list.

As for the hobbying itself, here are the projects I'm currently working on:

Painting
I am hoping to paint up one of each Aspect warrior in the coming weeks as a showcase as well as finishing off the crimson hunter and Farseer Elenwe.

Basing
I am greenstuffing some 40mm bases to rebase my metal wraithguard and also making a scenic base for the Crimson hunter and Wraithknight. The hunters bases has a webway gate instead of a flying stem and the wraithknight needs some debris to make the base less bland.

Modelling
I'm nearly there with the wraithknight assembly and magnetising - basically all the weapon options are magnetised - no mean feat given the size of the parts. I am also magnetising the weapon options for the wraithblades and using the leftover shooting weapons to magnetise the tips of my metal wraithguard to swap out between d scythes and d cannons.

That's about it for now and should keep me more than busy for a few weeks while I dream up a list, at which point I can lay out the army and begin the painting process in earnest. Watch out for updates. Cheers.
