Mymeara War Walkers
Completed the war walkers. Still need to make up nice bases for them, but I think they look good completed. The weapons are magnetized and I will need to paint a bunch more of them up.

Howling Banshee and Fire Dragon color test
Did a quick test of two of the aspect warrior types for the Mymeara. Wasn’t sure if I was going to do them in traditional colors or in the jade and turquoise armor with accents from their aspects. I think I’m going to go with the scheme below as I would like to have the army to look cohesive as a whole, with individual accents for the various aspect warriors.
Ice bases
So I tried my hand at some ice world bases. Not perfect but pretty good and considering they are made with about 20 cents worth of materials for 10 rather than paying a dollar a piece for resin bases, I’m pretty happy. I tried using Future acrylic wax to make them shine more like ice, but I think I’m going to add a light coat of water effects to get the shine even higher.
Mymeara Guardians and War Walker WIP
Allies Incoming – Tau Hammerhead
My first Tau model is finished up and ready to ally with the Eldar. Really excited with how it turned out and love the Mymeara color scheme on these guys. I’m getting better at doing the black-lining. My process now is to gloss varnish the model and then use a heavy black wash in the crevices. You can wipe off any over-spillage with a wet paper towel and it flows into the cracks nicely. After it dries I apply a matte varnish spray to take the shininess away. Can’t wait to see more of the Eldar and Tau models in the color scheme.
Tau Hammerhead WIP
The Eldar are receiving reinforcements. With the new Allies rules, I pulled some Tau stuff out of the garage that I’ve had for a while. I found part of a Tau mega-force box at Value Village a few years back and have been holding on to them until I had the resources or desire to build a Tau force. Well with the new ally system I don’t need much to get a small force of Tau to supplement the Eldar. I’ve decided to just paint in the same color scheme as the Mymeara Eldar to keep a nice cohesive look. I have no plans on growing them beyond maybe a 1000 points or so for use in Ally games. I really enjoy the aesthetics of the Tau tanks, the battlesuits, on the other hand, are a little too clunky looking. I like what Forge World have done with the battlesuits, but can’t afford that sort of thing right now, especially for a secondary force. I should be able to finish this guy up this week, and also have a Land Raider on the table that will hopefully get finished as well.
Wraithseer Conversion WIP
I finished up my conversion for a Wraithseer for my Mymeara Eldar. It was not too difficult and I’m really pleased with the result. The base is just a plastic Wraithlord kit and a D-cannon from a Support Weapon platform. The spear is made out of the wraithsword cut off on top, plastic q-tips for the shaft and then the fuel tank from a flamer from the wraithlord kit for the butt. There is a wire run through the whole length of the spear to give it strength. The shield is just made from plasticard with a spirit stone glued to it. Really excited to get this painted up and ready to play.
Ice Table WIP #3
I managed to get all of the white portions painted yesterday and it is really coming together. I will give the snow areas a coating of Future floor to give a nice glistening effect and then I just need to figure out how to do my ice. I’m thinking clear resin with a little blue and a little white ink or paint mixed in. I’ll try to pick some up this evening for testing purposes over the weekend.
