OK, Critical mode engaged once more:

Love the double cockpit -very nicely done. And overall I think this flows far better than the scorprion turret did.

I cant really see it in these photos, but The revenant torso looks as though its mounting might be a bit flimsy for the weight of structure above - is there much of a connection there?

I think on someting this size, the strapping could do with somethign added to it. Maybe sculpt or ccavenge a spirit stone from somethere to break up the large straps a little. Alternatively its another chance to show off your brushwork on an open space and I'll know to shut up in future ;)

The more I look at them as well, the more I begin to think the rear one looks like it could slip off up the tail - is there a connecting strap under its belly front-to-back? Could there be?

These are all really really minor things. It looks far better to my eye than the scorpion & looks like it will fit well with the force.

Finally, and yes, this will end all my posts since I now know you live nearby - Bring them to guildford!! :)

I dont believe it til I see them in person ;op

Really nice paint job on the revenants however & well done for keeping your head through the gems - it was worth it!

Certainly the best executed exodite army I've seen in my few (cough) years of epic. Loving the concept on the phantom titan too - the tower looks great.

Now - bring them to the Guildford club!

I almost expired painting gems.

Don't ever paint an eldar Titan. I DID expire painting that. All that remain is a fast decaying flesh envelope typing on Taccoms now. I tried to count the blasted stuff, but I lost myself above a hundred. Each of the wing has something like 35 gems studded on it, plus a sizeable complement scattered everywhere as usual.

Your army is officially the best exodite army I've ever seen by far. Very, very good modelling (when people like TuffSkull start giving you detailed opinions, even negative, that definitely proves you're on the right way, and quite advanced on it) and I'm astonished by your painting. I rarely see people able to paint both technical/future stuff and natural/monster stuff to high standard AND blend it all on the same model in a convincing way.

I never quite liked exodite previously, but you did a truly amazing job. Congratulations !

They look exceptional. Love the effect that you got on those two dinosaurs.

Hands down one of the most original and beautifully executed armies I've ever seen. The Revenants are particularly awsome - And a very nice job on getting some interesting skin tones for the dinosaurs.

Not entirely sure I'm sold on the Phantom design just yet - although it is a nice and original use of the old plastic Falcons. Looks a bit clunky at the moment, but I'm sure you have something interesting planned to give it that elegant and light Eldar look! ;)
