Omg, you've been busy. More painting of the beautiful people's. Can't wait to see.

Yeah, I'm nearly ready to start throwing paint down!

I lose track of all the stuff you pick up, never work on, then flip for more stuff!

In a way, I admire the practice...I would just suck it up, put it in my never to be painted drawer and then move on!

Looking forward to seeing some paint go down on the Lumineth dude!

Yeah, I keep getting mini-inspirations to get into 40k, but end up burning out and not wanting to play it. If I could paint like Cavalier or yourself Loosh, better believe I'd have a Harlequin army on the table! Followed by Craftworlds, of course!

GW has a lot of amazing sculpts it can be hard to pick. As much a I love my Eldar, there is only so many you can paint before it feels like work, that's when I break out something else to paint, usually a single box of something else is enough to break it up. Might be another way for you to get into 40k instead of getting big chunks of an army all at once.

Looking forward to see the new pointy ears with some paint on them.

Yeah that is true, I think I might have a 40k surprise for you guys in the next couple of weeks! ;D

In the meantime, will be working on some Realm-Lords to share on here! Waiting for the last of my stuff to come in.

Looking good. Love the pinkish and purple flesh on the eel! That dude with the blue robe, I actually had never seen that model, looks amazing! Can't wait to see them done.

I love the skin tones on that new eel. You're really creating some very interesting mounts that will make your Akhelians really pop on the battlefield.

that light box is pretty sweet. Really like the burgundy eel, the ride really pops in a good way a unit of those would look terrifying :)

All of your models look fantastic, but the stand out thing for me is how well you have lit them. The lack of any really harsh shadows has made a real difference. I like the look of that movement tray.

Yeah, I think the light box has proven itself quite the cost efficient resolution over purchasing a high quality camera, though that'll be nice one day ;D.

I'm assembling more Realm-Lords for the legion. I got most of the paints I need, just need a few more. But it's been incredibly humid here for the last week and that'll continue well into the next week.

So, it's airbrush time 8).

Hi Mage, no these are shattered dominion bases sold by GW.

I have ambitions to use some texture paste and some grass tufts to create overgrown ruin bases.

Looking good! The base treatment is gonna look great. I just got the 40k sector bases for my new necrons. Will pick up those when I get any new AoS models.

Was confident this model was going to turn out pretty bad after getting into my first attempt. I was going to switch schemes, but I stuck with it and this is the result. I'm calling him finished for now lol, though there's always more work to do on a model!

I'm glad you stuck it out because that is a badass model! Very well done. The armor plating is fantastic. The purple and blue skirting really adds to its character.
