Eldrad Ulthuan and Asurmen

[odinsgrandson]

Here are a few Eldar special characters that have been around since the very beginning of the 2nd edition without every having a model update.

Honestly, I don't think these minis have needed them. Although they do look slightly static compared to some of the more recent special characters, I think that in those years of scale creep, the Eldar still haven't caught up to Asurmen.

Anyway, here are some pics. All kinds of commentary are welcome:

I love them! I really like how you did Asurmen's armour, the dull blue is really nice.

The dull blue is ultramarines blue highlighted by mixing it with a bone color. I've used similar blues quite a bit, and in this case I shaded it with a darker blue (also mixed with Ultramarines).

Honestly, I don't think these minis have needed them I agree with that. I think they are still some of the most beautiful minis made by GW. Jes Goodwin's work was and is ahead of its time and even his older stuff is nigh impossible to improve upon.

Nice paint jobs.

[odinsgrandson]

Yeah, I think Jes did the Green Knight, and GW's still having a rough time topping that one.

Awesome job, could you describe how you got the coloration on Eldrad's robes?
