Night Spinner Project - update





It has been awhile since, I have posted something. I could run down the litany of reasons that have kept me from posting; such as needing a new camera, work has been daunting, my dog ate my homework..blah, blah, blah...

Regardless of the reason, here we go!

Several months ago, I got the "new" fire prism kit as a father's day gift. What I really like about this kit, was that you could also build a Night Spinner. I was able to setup a magnetized system for changing out the weapons, and added some cool fins like Agis.

Although I am pleased with the fins, they could be a problem in the future. The attach points are weaker than I expected, and I have already repaired on side.

I am still in the process of painting, but I will post a finished picture when I am done.

Eldar Corsairs

Some eons ago during a gaming convention, I saw a new table top game that captured my imagination. So the next day I purchased the rule book "Rogue Trader", little did I know that I would be forever lost to the 40K universe. I have always like the eldar, but one picture of the Eldar Corsairs (Pirates) really stuck with me. Forgeworld's latest release has me going all Nostalgic. Time to break out the plastic card and putty. - Sherpa




The Eldar Warp Hunter

I was recently looking at the Forgeworld website, when I noticed the Eldar Warp Hunter and Lynx Pulsar. I must admit they are really cool and almost a must have for an eldar player, but still out of reach for most players. So I was thinking of making my own (scratch built) version. Several months ago I found an article on a commissioned project by Andrew Hicks. I usually don't have much success with scratch built models, but Andrew's work inspires me.
