In my last post, I listed a number of projects that were currently underway in my hobby area. Even the least astute members of the audience will notice that the lion's share of them are Eldar.
The Eldar are essentially space elves from Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 universe, and they are the reason that I became interested in 40K. The lithe grace of their infantry and the smooth, flowing lines of their vehicles set them instantly apart from the rest of the miniatures available for the game.
To help illustrate why I love the Eldar, and to provide a finished contrast to the in-progress projects I intend to present, here is a finished Eldar Wave Serpent transport from my army.
This is the left side view, showing the shape of the model and the high-contrast color scheme I've selected (in another post, I will discuss at length why bright white might not be the best choice for one's painting sanity, but I think it looks great).
This is a close-up of the articulated cockpit and pilot. The pilot is a resin model from Games Workshop's Forge World series - it is repurposed from their Phoenix Bomber.
This is one of two finished Wave Serpents in my army, and I have a third waiting for me to get around to it. I'll gush about its utility in-game another day, and I'll add it to my ongoing projects list when I bother to get it out of the box.
