intrizic Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 So when I started collecting my eldar army (bandwagon power gamer) I was really into the fluff ( straight up lie, i likes the pew pew), but was kinda bummed that GW kept the same sculpts for the Dire Avengers because I like their fluff the best ( [big bad swear word]ing lie, wave serpent ftw, and there was no way I'm paying $7.50 a model for a sculpt from last century). So I decided to use Dreamforge Infantry for my base body: http://dreamforge-games.com/products/eisenkern-stormtrooper-rifle-squad use the magnifying glass to see the level of detail on these amazying model ( plus holy [big bad swear word] $1.65 for a MODEL !!!! ) Then I found this head from puppetswar for the Dire Avenger head: http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=107 And these for the fire dragon heads: http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=101 Now I want to build some Swooping hawks, I am using the same dreamforge bodies: but with these heads: http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=102 and these jet packs: http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=267 That is all :D 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torg Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 very cool - I have been looking at all that dream forge stuff for Eisenkern- just not sure which army to do the counts as with it (IG seems most logical i guess). I love the vehicles too. - maybe grey knights? -d 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intrizic Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 So after much emailing and pleading, I was able to get my password to puppetswar reset. So the heads and backpacks are on their way, as are the bodies from dreamforge. I will try to get the picks up of my Dire Avengers and Fire Dragons just to show commitment. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMGraham Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Cool beans! The heads aren't as different-looking as I thought, the animal shapes are pretty subtle. That'll be a unique looking army, and the colors really make it clear what things are. I like them a lot! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll be a unique looking army, and the colors really make it clear what things are. I like them a lot! IMO if you look at the various Eldar infantry models there is very little in the uniform to differentiate one unit type from another, excluding big items like weapons and jetpacks. For example the difference, for me, between dire avengers and fire dragons is slight. It's the color variation that really drives the differences in unit type, again imo. My painting test piece will be primed white with sky blue airbrushed over the entire model. I'm then darken with a blue wash and then delicately dry brush the sky blue again. Then I'll go for details. I think the wings will be fun 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intrizic Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 damn it, I'm on record too..... ;D of course my definition of painting 'fun' = good results with the least effort :D 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
