This is one of the Farseers for my Army. I am painting him for the year long painting challenge that is being hosted by Heresy.

Here are my new Shining Spears as well. I have 6 so far that I am working on.

Last months entry that are not 100% done. I need to pic the details out but I was rushed that month. All the work on these were done with an Airbrush, trying to see just how far I could push it with not using a paintbrush.

C&C very welcome!

Basically the should mounter rocket launchers on the Epic Revenant will be the twin linked shuri and the pulsar cannons are the spears. The revenant titans also have the jump jets which cover why they can move so far. I have been thinking about doing this for years but just never got the capital up for it. I was able to finally pick up 6 of them and looking to buy 2 more to finish up my second squad. They will be painted in the standard Shining Spears colors. As another bonus they are just the right size to use normal eldar heads on them as well, as you can see.

Painted some more on the Farseer. I am thinking of washing the metals in blue/purple. What are your thoughts on it. C&C very very very welcome.

Skin is NO where near done. That was me grabbing the wrong paint and painting under a lamp while watching TV vs under my truecolor lamps, I did not realize he looked like he was going to look like he was wearing spray on tanner.

Good call on the blacklining, never done it much but I can see what you mean by a good separation. The metal I was thinking Blue/Purple washes layered until I get the color effect I am looking for (mainly on the weapon blade).

How do you do highlights on that dark red? It's hard to tell from the pictures.
