Thanks guys. I went back and tried to color adjust the pics a little better. Still not the best match, but better.

As I was finishing up my decal/dullcote/grass que I was also working on these guys. They involved a lot of cutting, pinning, plasticard and swearing at CA glue. All twelve had their arms and legs cut off. I pinned the legs after some creative bending and repositioning, and then puttied some ball and socket joints for the arms so they could be positioned any which way. The Bright Lances mounts were squares of plasticard that got some fancy cutting and filing.

The Wraithseers were even more extensive. I used two 40k Space Marine knives a piece to create their staves and arm blades. As well as some Eldar grenades and strips of plasticard for the rest of the staves and loincloths.

This was one of my favorite conversions. I was trying to make it look like he's about to pound a vehicle or something.

Fiddly 6mm conversions for the win! How on earth do you manage to pin something as spindly as Epic wraithlord limbs though?!

I used staples for the pins, and a drill slightly larger in diameter. You've got to go real slow, and try to stay perpendicular to the face. Also, victory!

It's been slow going due to some 1:1 scale projects, but I've made progress on the Wraithlords. Five are done, I've got another seven to do the orange highlights on and they'll be good as well.

Great job Dave on the elfs, like the orange colour scheme, it works really well with the miniatures ;)
