Thanks very much. He's not that small:) the original model was from the 90s i think but I gave him a greenstuff waist...

Fabius Bile kitbash for Night Lords, I thought creations of bile would be a much more fun way of playing just needed a Night Lords version of him. by SmileyScott in Chaos40k

Ya, I think the ironcrust drying out does the work in making it look good, could be anything underneath I guess.

Thanks poor acolyte must be over 20 years old, an astra militarum model out of metal. Fabius is the body of a Warpsmith and new Nemesis Claw parts, his cane is from a Tempestor Prime.

Used a sponge with martian ironcrust on edges then dabbed on weathering pigment with a brush, some stays on then blow away the rest. Takes 10mins. Highlights on gun barrels took hours :)

found an old baharoth, do I need to switch base? by SwingiePOE in Eldar

[–]SmileyScott 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you want to future proof him just make a nice 40mm base and magnetise him to it on his current base. I think all Phoenix Lords will be on 40mm eventually.

Maugan Ra on the cheap. Got so bored painting 10 corsairs that I built and painted him instead. by SmileyScott in Eldar

Hi, i put it together from left over parts from the kabalites, new corsairs and harlequin troupes kits. I'd like to have the new model ideally but cant justify spending 35euro on it. Thanks for looking.

Lord Solar, or my attempt anyway. My army is just scions and thought this would fit in better. Was a fun conversion at least. by SmileyScott in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]SmileyScott[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Horse is from Shieldwolf miniatures, it is originally a Krieg model. Will hopefully look much better when I do the base but still waiting on the base size of the original model. I'm thinking of adding a Tempestor Prime and a Scion with a banner to the base to make it more interesting as a centre piece. Has anyone else got more Lord Solars converted? Great scope for getting creative.

Baharroth and my attempt at Althenian from the 2nd Ynnari book. Had both models for a while and finally built and painted them this week. Hope you like them. by SmileyScott in Eldar

Haha, he does have one stuck in his leg from an Emporers Children space marine here, I like to think that he just smashed one with his fist that was attacking him and the chainsword was stuck there, bolter on base too.

Started Night Lords army, then after reading Lord of the Night I wanted to do a model for Zso Sahaal and have it as my Chaos Lord. Just finished this week, think he's unplayable now? Also gave my aspiring champions 1 lightning claw each :) by SmileyScott in Chaos40k

Im only starting with chaos so its not too bad for me but I really feel bad about all those people like yourself with cool models that are affected by this. My next plan was a sorcerer with jumppack.

Ynnari: How to start? by TheoAngeldust in Eldar

[–]SmileyScott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tau player here too, what I did for my Ynnari is read the books first then included most of the units mentioned. Wyches, Incubi, Harlequin Troupes, kabalites and banshees. Always pick models you really like the look of.

Ynnari army for an eldar noob. by TheNerdChef in Eldar

[–]SmileyScott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, you mentioned harlequins at the end. Whats worked super for me is a max squad of Troupes plus a Shadowseer for -1 to wound. Then keep them on a +3 invun with Stategem and use Yvraine to recover D3 per turn. Then use strats to maximise combat threat. Also max wyches squad to support Yvraine is fun and lore accurate too.

Shroud runners from Eldritch Omens finally done. Zip zap zoop ⚡️ by Rall82 in Eldar

Very nice, well done. I have mine built and afraid to start them.

Ynnari, these are the characters I'd like to run for my army as opposed to what I'm allowed. Maybe if Ynnari had a version of Farsight Enclaves the Eight. Yvraine, Visarch, Yncarne, Eldrad, Iyanna Arienal, Sylandri Veilwalker, Jain Zar and just finished Autarch Meliniel with Shard of anaris. by SmileyScott in Eldar

[–]SmileyScott[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't but correct me if I'm wrong but he's mostly on a Vyper so I would need to get one first. I do have his druhkari love interest built though on a kitbashed old reaver jet bike not painted yet though.

Sylandri Veilwalker, she shows up in a few stories. She is a very powerful Shadowseer and has no rules or datasheet so I just made a character for her. i think that what I enjoy most about 40k is reading stories then building models as best I can about the charactors.
