Description My army of Eldar Exodites. Front left to right: 10 Guardian Defenders with Scatter Laser weapon platform, Warlock, 10 Guardian Defenders with Eldar Missile Launcher weapon platform. Back: Two units of 2 Dark Reapers and Exarch with Tempest Launcher.

Keen-eyed watchers may notice the different tone of green between the two guardian units, this is because the darker ones are older. The brighter green will be the tone that the rest of the army will be based upon.

Personal notes: Awesome models to convert and paint after the never-ending imperial guard armies. Making snow from baking soda can be REALLY messy even tough it's a cheap way to do it.

I like the look of these guys. Little Beil-Tan than Exodite, but clean crisp colours and nice shadow-highlight contrasts.

The snow looks really good for a simple baking soda mix. I've used a combination of fine "snow" powder and reflective hobby snow as well as melted wax before.

High Elf Archer legs, simple kit-bash as the 16 model archer box comes with 20 pairs of legs

For adding stuff to the bases, I use the Extra Course version of this stuff. [link]
The 8 oz size goes a long way

You can see it here on this base [link]

Older ones where painted using Citadels Knarloc Green as base and blended from there while newer ones have Vallejo Game Color Mutation Green as base.
