Custom Eldar Jetbike Seer Council

Once again like I mentioned before in the last post I had more jetbikes to finish up and here they are. Now theses are painted in a similar theme to that of the Ibraeysil craftworld. Mainly blue with a hints of white on the armour, such as in the face area. They are converted in the exact same way as the bikes I converted in the past. This time there was 2 units of 6, one equipped with a witchblades and the other with singing spears. The weapons were painted with a them similar to a photo I saw of an eldar warlock a while back. The weapon the eldar is holding had a glowing purple/pink electric look to it in the picture. I wanted to replicate this look on these models and overall I think they turned out pretty darn good. The overall paint job was kept pretty simple to help fit in with the army they belong to. The next project to see the blog will most likely be some wood elves I am finishing up for a friend of mine. After that I will post some of my Gamesday projects I have been working on and some really old star wars figure. Also I have been working on my personal SM project a will showcae some those in the future. Thanks for visiting and till next time.
Happy Canada Day to all canucks.

Beil-Tan Eldar Jetbike Seer Council

Well It has been a while since I last posted on my blog and there are a ton of different reasons I could give you but you don't want to hear about that, tyou want to know about the models.Well here is another eldar seer council on jetbikes conversion I did. This time they were painted in the biel-ten color scheme.  Since I have done this conversion before it was pretty easy to pull off and knowing where to cut and green stuff the models helped to cut down on the time it took to complete the build. The models were converted using some GS and the legs from the rider converted over with GS to look like robes. The torso's are from the seer council box. The upper torso of the models were cut off to be attached to the plastic rider's legs. Then it was time to paint, which was pretty straight forward. Overall I am really happy with how they turned out. 

I have another 2 councils on jetbikes that will be completed soon so keep your eyes out for those, they are in a different color scheme, but mostly the same models. Till next time.

Eldar Farseer and Warlocks on Jetbikes

Well it took awhile but I have finished the Eldar Command on Jetbikes. There is a Farseer and 5 warlocks, 3 warlocks have witchblades and the other 2 have singing spears along with the farseer. The models were made from using the standard jetbike boxes and the warlock farseer command box and a few extra blisters of warlocks. The models are all infantry models and made of metal. I had to cut each model at the torso and some of the weapon arms had to be cut off almost all of them. I then used the guardian legs that come standard with the jetbike box and attached all the torso that I cut to each one. After that since they all had robes before I cut them in have, I decided to green stuff robes on them. In addition to this I added a green stuffed cape to the farseer. The witchblades and spears are from the dire avengers box. After that it was tme to paint them. I used enchanted blue and Iyanden darksun and then added Ice blue and golden yellow for highlights with a final highlight layer of white to each color. Overall I am very pleased with how they turned out and they sure are alot prettier in person. Feel free to leave your comments or questions, till next time.

Eldar Farseer and Warlocks on Jetbikes - Commission

Well yet another project, this time Eldar. This is an Farseer and 5 Warlocks on Jetbikes Hq squad that I am currently working on for a customer. I found this project to be a little more work then your usual project. I started with the originala metal farseer box and 3 additional warlocks in blisters and 5 jetbikes and the autarch jetbike box aswell. I started with the metal figures by utting them in half at the waist and removing any arms or bits that would not work or fit on the bikers legs. And yes it was quite time consuming and dulled 2 saw blades, lots of sweat. After that I built all the bikes and left the front cover off for priming and to give me some more room to green stuff the rider legs to look more like a robes from the original models. I also had to swap up some of the weapons since the customer wanted 3 with singing spears and 3 with witchblades. Now that I have the models converted and built I will get them primed and start painting them in the aliatoc colors like requested. I had a lot fun and learned a few new things while building this project, next time I build an eldar model it will be a custom farseer. Check back soon to see the finished product and feel free to leave your comments.
