Your work is always a great source of inspiration I thought the Nightwings were sweet before but now I'm speechless! I think I may as well not bother to paint up my SG ones now... BTW: With FW's habit of upsizing their flyers compared to the SG versions, does anybody know how these compare to the SG Nightwings in size?

	Those Eldar fliers are absolutely fantastic! I will certainly need to re-equip my Eldar air fleet when they are released. And, I am following the general dismay about the lack of BFG stuff - particularly the Mars fleet. When was the last time that BFG actually got any serious release? Ork Heavy Kroozas?

BTW: With FW's habit of upsizing their flyers compared to the SG versions, does anybody know how these compare to the SG Nightwings in size? I wouldn't so much describe it as a habit as such. Forgeworld take the trouble to follow scale and accurately scale down at 1:5 from their 40K counterparts, whereas SG don't go to those lengths hence the often unfortunately large disparity in sizes between the two ranges. With regards to the Nightwing, the Forgeworld version is considerably larger than the old metal E40K one that was re-released for the Swordwind. I would estimate at least twice as large from memory. I'll be able to give a better comparisson once I start painting them and get the two side by side, but I'd say expect a large disparity I'm afraid. Thanks for the kind words guys, it's nice to be back working on Epic again after such a long break on the 'larger' scale heh. I have a few bits to finish off and finally put to rest (like the Salamanders and Guard), so they will get the initial attention, but after that, I have a few irons in the fire I'd like to start working on again, the Eldar included. And even better to hear from you Carl. I am going to pretend I didn't see the bit in your sig about Dropship being scheduled for de-commission. If I don't see then it can't be true, right?

Ahh, don't worry about that. It's just because the link is to the current version of Dropship, which I will be de-commissioning in the near future as its not been updated since last year. I have been working on a replacement for it for the past few months on and off as I needed to standardise the format more to be less manually intensive (and therefore easier for me to update more frequently).
I'll chop out the old version of the site once I have completed porting over all the content and actually added some new articles.

It's being decommissioned for a new version, not removed alltogether heh. I'm not going anywhere, I only just got back

Regards
Carl
