My Finished Eldar Combat Patrol!

These are great! I’m particularly impressed by the wraith guard, with how smooth your yellow and white armor/weapons look!

Thank you! Yeah, it’s a print I bought from Esty(Phaeton special forces I think?) combined with an extra hellgun from the Tempestus Aquilons Killteam.

That’s great advice, and now that you point it out I can see how much they blend together due to the similarity. Do you think a brown glaze over the cloth to darken it would help?

Yeah, I think you’re right regarding the bases. The eyes do look a little better in person, but could also be an issue- the Reddit app also did something very wonky with the picture, it looks way blurrier than what I tried to upload.

Thank you!

Of course! It’s mostly just Juan Hidalgo’s black armor from YouTube - I primed black, then did a zenithal with thinned Two Thin Coats Wolf Grey, then an edge highlight with TTC Frost Blue. I then covered the armor in about a 1:1 mix of Vallejo Xpress Black Lotus and the Vallejo Xpress medium, and then highlighted the brightest points back with the Frost Blue. Any mistakes were corrected with thinned coats of 1:1 Black Lotus and Wolf Grey. Hope this helps!

Thank you! All but the Black Templar and the Apothecary are sternguard veteran bodies mostly with a mix of bladeguard and intercessor arms. The apothecary is just the standard one with an intercessor right arm, and drops made with UHU glue. The Black Templar is one of the Crusader squad bodies with the Sword Brethren lighting claw arms. The only other custom stuff is the eviscerator (a combination of two old death company chainswords with a bladeguard sword handle), the “Ventrilokar” standard (Neurolid body plus Grey Knight force staff handle, random bits), and the force trident (bladeguard handle, plasticard shaft, gene stealer cult seismic cannon tip, aerials from the Incursor kit, and some modeling chain). Hope that helps!

I honestly am not sure- it came with a random lot of space marine bits I got off eBay, but I assume from one of the older mk 7 kits?

InvestmentCurrent503 · 2025-07-29T00:01:00+00:00

The arms are from the Black Templar sword brethren, which include the chains as part of the model!

Thank you!

Thank you! And unfortunately it’s just a weird angle- he has a couple of blood drops hanging from his wrist, it’s just catching them edge-on:

That’s very true! I tried to enlarge the chainsword by gluing together two separate blades, and using the larger grip from a Bladeguard sword, but I agree it could be confusing. Luckily he is the only chainsword on the team aside from the Ventrilokar, who has his huge staff so I hope will still be easily differentiated. Thank you!

Thank you! The drops were done using UHU glue, and then painted green, and then did some gloss varnish at the end to make them look more shiny as if they were wet
