Here's my first bit of epic painting in a long time - some spare eldar plastics painted up for a friend.
Paintjob for most units was very simple - blood red with chestnut wash - details in boltgun metal, black, white etc. Total time to assemble, paint and flock the whole thing was one Saturday morning and afternoon, and 4 evenings. For basing I used 20mm square plasticard pieces with sanded corners, and more minimal basing conventions of 3-4 figures.
Theme is an infantry based Sam Hainn - using the Biel Tan or Ulthwe lists. Makes ok 3K lists, probably needs some titans and more vehicles etc for effective 4-5K play.

Really nice. Those aircraft are pretty cool although I like the bigger one the best.
I really like the Dark Reaper Aspect Warior as well

great army Markconz, I looked at the 'army' pics and thought.....way too shiny, but then at the more detailed shots where they look great, interesting.
The bomber is wonderful, I think you're gonna have to remember where they come from 
And a Saim Hainn army without bikes! what's the story?

Cool minis Markconz.
And the flyers are Silent Death Space Ships. The smaller ones are 1 man space fighter called Dart and the bigger ones are 2 man space fighter called Teal Hawk.
And by a curious coincidence I recently painted up some Darts in a red colur scheme for my Silent Death fleet- Sigurd Archdiocese- Vikings in space!! I went for red as the primary colour on historical Viking shields & banners.
Only a small thing but I like the way you have done the white tips to the wings. I might have to steal that idea to help in squadron identification.
Anyhow the figures are from a sprue of 12 different space ships that can be still purchased from the manufacturers (Iron Crown Enterprises) or several other sources:

http://www.em4miniatures.com/acatalog/S ... ction.html
(page down towards the bottom- currently sold at 1 sprue of 12 for UK?2.50.
Any more questions on the ships please ask!!
Cheers
James
