Was finally able to find some time to get Amallyn painted in my army colours.

Thanks for looking!

Final pic of them on game day. Played a few Boarding Actions, these went up against Death Guard (and took the W).

After a billion years, they’re finished! Eldar Wraithseer and Wraithlord finally painted and ready to go. Only thing I’d really do here is gloss varnish the faceplate.

Gold and red brought back up to midtone on the big wraiths after yesterday’s wash (4 & 5). Also threw a little greenery on the autarch bases. All ready for a bit more highlighting before cracking on with highlighting the black, which I am dreading. #warhammer40k #warmongers #eldar #aeldari #40k #warhammer #40k #wh40k #minipainting #warhammer40000 #paintingwarhammer #hobbystreak https://www.instagram.com/p/CpOGr3Etmqb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Wraithseer is now primed and ready to go. Tried for a subtle zenithal so it still looks black, unsure how well that’s turned out but we’ll wait and see. Also since the seer comes with a wraithlord kit, I’ve built a tragic casualty into my wraithknight’s base. And I also managed to turn a few xmas gift boxes I hadn’t gotten round to throwing out into a cheapo airbrush booth. All in all, pretty productive. Now to take a break from all these paint fumes. #warhammer40k #warmongers #eldar #aeldari #40k #warhammer #40k #wh40k #minipainting #warhammer40000 #paintingwarhammer #hobbystreak #wraithseer #wraithlord #wraithknight https://www.instagram.com/p/CoX3dw1N14i/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Calling it there. Let it all cure and then he’s ready to prime. Base doesn’t have quite as much floaty debris as I’d have liked, but getting that spot on is gonna be far more trouble than it’s worth. Think is is exactly what it needs to be. #warhammer40k #warmongers #eldar #aeldari #40k #warhammer #40k #wh40k #warhammer40000 #hobbystreak #Wraithlord #wraithseer https://www.instagram.com/p/CoS4-0wtkqO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Went to Warhammer World last weekend and picked myself up a souvenir Wraithseer. Pretty much finished on the build. Just need to add a little to the base and maybe do some clean-up. The Wraithlord/seer kit is in such a strange place. The miniature is cool, but the limbs and hands are really static. Not sure if it was intentional to show they’re stiff automatons, or to give builders room to manipulate the sculpt, but out of the box it can be a very tricky model to get looking dynamic. Also a “boooo” to GW/FW: If you pay over the odds for a kit, you should get instructions with it. No instructions for the Seer upgrade parts is one thing, but not including the base lord instructions with the sprues is baffling, particularly when those instructions are not on your website. It’s a premium kit, it should have the essentials, don’t take the piss. #warhammer40k #warmongers #eldar #aeldari #40k #warhammer #40k #wh40k #warhammer40000 #hobbystreak #wraithlord #wraithseer https://www.instagram.com/p/CoSKogiNlk-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The boys and I descended on the Mecca of “too much time on our hands”; Warhammer World. (at Warhammer World) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoE6tLTtGEB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
