Post subject:  Modelling Dark Eldar Raven Fighters

Now, Ive been reading throught the rules of Bommerz over da Sulphur River and I was inspired to make a version for this game which can be played in the Anargo Sector. However Ive been working on several "battlefields" the first two version would revolve around the Dark Eldar as you can see here.

Now is my problem...I popped in the Dark Eldar as the adversaries instead of the Orks since it was fitting with the planets in question. But now I have no idea to how model the Dark Eldar Raven Fighter in epic scale.  :blush:

Any ideas or suggestions?

I am not sure about this... but the front looks like it could come from something in the Tyranid range...

I think its somewhat of a bigger version of the front of the Dark Eldar Jetbike, just the bone colour makes it look a bit too organic and hence Tyranid like.

I am thinking you could use an old style Eldar jetbike, cut off the fella riding in the back.  Then cut out the wings from hard plastic sheeting and glue to the back.

Guns should be easy enough to cannibalize or make.

Spikes...  I actually have been storing up a bunch of stuff to make a Dark Eldar army.  Those spikes are everywhere.  The best thing you can do is keep all the plastic and metal sprues that your GW models come on.  They make excellent building materials.  Clip the corners to get tiny little triangles (spikes)and then glue them on, but good luck.

When I did the conversion on my Harlequin Avatar ( ??? ) I made him carrying a mini Harlequin mask which was made from scratch.  Putting the nose on that thing took 4 attempts over two days.

Get an applicator tube for your glue if you are going to be doing that type of mini-work.

Good luck!  Would like to see the finished product.
