Ilraenor's WIPs

Hey guys,
Starting off the new year with prepping a duel for golden demon.
The duel will be an eldar wraithblade against sergeant harker.
I've started the eldar and so far it looks like this (this is
painstakingly slow though) :

An insta poll has recommended adding white dots, i'll try that
once I've finished the reds.
Beyond that, the plan is to have:
- some black parts (the fin like structure, weapon's staff and
shield)
- some purple but different textures (crystal blade, gems,
cloth)
- white head
I'd love some free hand on the cloth but I'm not sure as it's
really small.
I'm not sure how I'll paint some details as I really don't want
any metal and they are usually gold :/ (some gems sockets, the
shield's "ribbon" and the heart thingy)
What do you guys think ?

Hello,
thanks for the kind words, my insta is patrickcudrey .
But for now, you'll mostly see the same things as here.
So far I've managed to finish the reds and most of the head. As
I suck at freehands, I've used decals that I've touched up. I'm
not entirely fond of the one on the head, there is some "volume"
to it, the surface wasn't flat enough I guess..

I've thought about it some more, the "metal" pieces will be bone
like in color. After all, if it's good enough for eldrad
ulthran, it's good enough for a wraithblade :D

I'm going to have to put it on the side for now as I've entered
a charity project with another miniature.

Just to point out, the bumps and lumps on Eldar vehicles and
armour were never meant to be gems. They were supposed to be
aesthetically-pleasing curved shapes to cover what would be
unsightly sticky-out bits (joints, hydraulics, etc.) or access
panels on non-Eldar vehicles. The only ones that were supposed
to be gems were the ones mounted in specific mountings, like the
main chest one on Guardian armour, etc.
The reason they got painted as gems was because of a mistake by
the 'eavy Metal team, which has made life hell for Eldar
painters ever since.
Sorry about that... ::)
But it does give you an out, eh?
(The paint job's looking really good, by the way. Love that deep
red.)

Ooooooh I never knew that.
This actually makes a lot more sense. I'm definitely not an
expert and I was thinking that the gems were soulstones. I
always found it kinda weird how they would put so many dead
eldars onto stuff...
(Thanks for the compliment :))

Not much hobby time lately as I've been building a new desk /
workstation / shelf.
Anyway, here is where we're standing right now :
