Eldar Exodite converted army
Exodites
Here are some models from my new exodite army that I completed over the Christmas holidays (I have more on the way, including a forge world Carmine dragon). They're a little overly shiny as the winter sun comes in at a lower angle making photos difficult. Either too dark or adding false highlights. One day I will buy a proper lighting setup.
The exodites are based on an autumn colour scheme in both their armour and the trees that are added to the bases.
Farseer
Minimal conversion on the farseer, I swapped out the witchblade for the IoB mage's staff and tipped it with a singing spear blade (so much easier to do that with finecast).
Also added the mage's cloak with some brass etch leaves inside.

Dragons
Aspect warriors are a little tricky for an exodite force, but the army would be a bit bland without them. The fluff for my exodite world has a craftworld damaged by an enemy attack that has been pulled in by the exodite world's gravity and now forms a floating island with the reduced numbers of the craftworld eldar unable to repair it.
As a result, aspect shrines with a slightly wilder feel to them.
The dragons (one of the bubbliest finecast boxes I've had so far) are simple conversions adding in corsair cloaks.

Fire Prism
I'm not a huge fan of teh stock Chimera kit so I converted it quite extensively. Three/four heads became just one and the wings were switched for IoB griffon wings. The leaping pose was explaind by reversing the rock from the high elf dragon kit to give it something to grab onto. The armour is just smoothed ovals of green stuff. I felt that with no armour at all, they would look too fantasy but full armour would look a little silly.
the rider is from a viper gunner swapping the weapon for an ebayed fire prism cannon with a high elf prince banner and DE scourge head.
