Flew back home yesterday so I got inspired to get stuck into the Eldar fliers today.

The next unit off the painting desk is some Nightwings.
They are really good looking units. They weren't actually too bad to stick together once I decided how to get them onto their bases.
I ended up cutting the tips of the flying stand, drilling a shallow hole into the top and replacing the tip with a small length of paper clip wire.
That way I only had to drill a small hole into the nightwings as they seemed a bit thin and fragile to go drilling massive holes into (especially since I have heard reports of them snapping when you do).

Cheers! It's getting very close to being done. Only a small little stack of things to do now. I am trying to finish all the planes, the last two falcons and the weapons platforms today. I have to admit I am starting to struggle with distractions now, especially painting units that I have already done. If I get all that done that just leaves the revenants so I will be able to start packing them this week and send them off before the next weekend.

Finally the infantry units are all complete. Here are the weapons teams to go with the Guardians.

Another unit of aircraft.

Now I just have 3 aircraft and 2 tanks to do tonight and that leaves the last of the titans and objective markers.
12 more tanks to go when the parts needed to complete the unit arrive as most of the FW firestorm weapons broke in transit and one of the night spinners guns was damaged.

Finished up the unit for the Fire Prisms. I forgot that they get falcons to back them up in the Ulthwe List when I painted them. I really like this in the list it makes Fireprisms heaps more useful. I gave these falcons a slightly different scheme to match them up with the prisms.

Fantastic army pictures! I really like the profile of the Eldar fliers menacing over the ground forces.
Well done.
