So Ends the Big Box

Six months ago, give or take, I decided that I wasn't going to do commission work anymore. My work rate was abysmal and I had lost interest in painting armies.  I experimented with farming the rest of the Big Box out to someone else, but he proved at least as immovable as me.

And so today, after nearly five years of painting Ulthwe Eldar, I have returned the remaining contents of the Big Box.  The job started when GW released the large Eldar army box that included the current codex, and it ended today.

That's a lot of Eldar.

Group Ready To Ship

All painted, based and ready for a new home.
Maybe a home where the ambient light isn't so blue....

Skimmers & Banshees

 The big box gets lighter and lighter.  These tanks are ready to roll (so to speak...) and the Banshees are nearly so.

Never underestimate a complicated infantry model's ability to take a long time to paint.

In terms of grav tanks, only a single Falcon remains now to be completed.  There are a few Vipers and a trio of War Walkers, along with a dozen or so miscellaneous infantry models too.

Totally accidental flame hair.

A Wraithlord of Ulthwe

I still need to put the grass on the base to match the other models in the army, but this guy is essentially done.  Whoops, except for some specular reflections on gems I see I missed now.

Next up.... grav tanks!
