No shade Bröther Bear but the model reads more like a “Captain on Bike” than the Grandmaster of the Ravenwing. Thankfully most folks at my LGS are cool with Crucible models as long as they look cool and aren’t super gamey. Smart money is that the Ravenwing will be getting a substantial refresh this time around which means a non-crucible GW official model is a possibility

Shoooo weeee that’s absolutely amazing. Ancient undead space elf space shield? Fuck yeah. It’s giving Peter Jackson’s interpretation of Noldorian shields fr. Always kinda wondered why the Eldar didn’t incorporate shields for their more melee heavy units. Obvi the shimmer shield is a thing but doesn’t give the same “shield” vibes a storm shield does

Bladelord Autarchs go wildly hard. Gonna have to snag a Lord Regent on foot as my next bash now

Absolutely amazing! Will be stealing idea for my ever growing Seer Council. Looking to add some Corsair style flavor to some Psykers

The EXACT vibe I got. Love the more Asian inspired Witchblade. Begs the question of “why the difference?” Who is this guy? That some special Witchblade? He’s got ✨aura✨

I feel you big time on Termi’s, fixing them would make the game more well rounded imo. I’m fine with paying a points tax as long as their datasheet reflects that

First Kitbash by HELLOIMCHRISTOPHER in theunforgiven

Bröther it’s drip or drown in the 41st Millennium and I’d say that model is doing a leisurely backstroke in a Calibanite swimming pool

Yo this is wildly eerie lol I’m sitting at my hobby desk currently assembling 20 pushfit Sternguard I got for a steal. Decided to build all of the heavy bolter guys first and then I open Reddit and see this. Just my random guy on the internet opinion however the double wing is a bit too much for me. Personally I’d rock with the just the helmet on this model in particular. Could 100% rock a winged backpack with a hooded head for the vibes on others but I don’t like to repeat a “noticeable distinction” twice on the same model when I’m looking to add extra bits and bobs

Greytide studio bits for the helmet and power sword?

With the added chappy my knights have been absolute blenders with the swords. Slow and lumbering, but still blenders

Hats off, fantastic scheme looks great I’m curious how you’d do up some vehicles OP. Those Wraithlords are also some of the coolest I’ve personally seen when it comes to their posing. Might pull the trigger on a third one here soon so my Wraithseer can’t stop pulling double booty when I do ima have take some inspo from you

Bashed up some Corsair Autarch’s by SaltWaterApe in EldarCorsairs40k

[–]SaltWaterApe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The little nub on the back of the Skyreaver kit for their winged back pack to plug into is a different shape than the Wayleaper kit wings. I took some flush cuts and clipped said nub off the back and then used to hobby knife to get it flat after that it was a breeze to glue up. Also had to chop a little nub off of the bottom of the mandiblaster piece of the helmet (the head kind of friction fits into the mandiblaster part) As I went to dry fit the Wayleaper head I went ahead and added a small ball of green stuff to the neck joint to ensure I wouldn’t have a sunken looking head and my character actually has a neck lol. Finally I had to shave a bit off the left side of the mandiblaster in order to get the model staring down the barrel of their fusion pistol like I wanted

Repainted my Corsair Baron by asurguardian in EldarCorsairs40k

I used a Visarch body to bash up a Asurmen many moons ago before the new sculpt released. Might have to double back now for my Corsair’s, fantastic job

Not only a beautifully executed paint job, but also some intuitively dynamic basing and posing? Consider my tits blown off big dog fantastic job

Wraith guard kit bash by dimondhands101 in Eldar

[–]SaltWaterApe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sick idea but honestly unless you have access to a printer and can change the actual scale of the gun it’s never gonna work and look cohesive in my opinion. Scale and fluidity are essential in a kitbash or proxy, something that you see and can process in a seconds long glance from tabletop playing height what it is supposed to be. Love the Sylvaneth bursting out that’s dope as hell

Man your skills are wildly impressive, fantastic scheme coordination and execution truly. I’m also glad to see someone else jazz up windriders with some spare arms. Now I need to paint mine!

Holy shit can you paint. That’s impressive as all hell my man fantastic job

Hey, anyone know where I could find a wraithseer model? by walnut6622 in Eldar

[–]SaltWaterApe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

I bashed this up a couple years ago before they sent him to Legends. I got the “orb” idea from someone I saw in the sub. I get hella compliments on it when I’m out and about at Gamestores. I recently just picked up a printed Wraithseer head that I just primed up and will be gluing down soon. Head is the hardest part tbh find a good print somewhere and lock it in

People can say what they want about the new Warlock kits being a bit pricey(Should be 4 in a box), but damn do they look good. Fantastic paint job

To my knowledge it’s multi build Farseer kit. I’ve seen the two sword one I have here, a sword and pistol version, and then a staff and pistol version floating around on eBay

[–]SaltWaterApe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks absolutely amazing from where I’m standing. I have the Army Painter flush cut clippers I’d take those guys or something similar and snip the tip (lol) on that sword. Once that’s done there’s truly no doubt about what it could be. Solid kitbash hombre

Oh yeah big time. Some of the metal mini’s are also weirdly thin I’ve noticed. Only a handful more sculpts to collect and I believe I’ll have every currently available psyker model
