I painted some Eldar Pirates for a Rogue Trader scenario I'm running.

I can imagine these guys sneaking around a distant hive world....

Those are quite cool ! Where do these helmets come from ? They really suit the old pirate look the eldars had. I really like those markings too.

Re: Eldar Pirates

Thanks! They're actually a conversion kit from Forge World, I think the design is a nice touch of retro and modern. I plan on doing more and each Eldar will have their own unique markings.

Re: Eldar Pirates

They do look surprisingly like some of the old eldar pirates. Nice to see there are still some adherents to the older aesthetic in the GW orbit. Nicely done.

Some Space marines for the RT scenario. My buddy and I just finished up a few scenarios, this squad of marines is fresh from Quelling a mutant Rebellion!



 
Re: Eldar Pirates & Space Marines

you've really captured the oldhammer feel on those models, even though the models aren't very old. i am very impressed with your work!

I painted the last 3 Eldritch Raiders for the squad.



I think the next squad i'll do will have blue armor.

Re: Eldar Pirates & Space Marines

Finished two more pirate squads. I decided to stick with the scheme afterall, since the collection is only about 20 models i figured that the designs on the helmets were enough to show that even though they had a uniform they were still wild and unique. Also I managed to get my hands on some RT Eldar sculpts, So i'll post them once they arrive in the mail!

I must admit, you're doing great work with NEW citadel materials. Wasn't sure it was possible. Very nice and very Oldhammer, in spite of your starting points. Keep it up.

These models are very fun to paint! Here are my two Eldar generals.



Champion Lassitae Starfi



Commander Lessei Moondancer

 
Re: Eldar Pirates & Space Marines

Quick work! They look great, better than the PJ's on the plastic ones I think :).

FYI the leader with the sword is armed with a Jokero digital laser on his pointing finger!
