Eldar Farseer 5

This conversion was originally made to represent Bel-Annath, an Eldar Farseer described in Forge World's Imperial Armour Volume 11: The Doom of Mymeara. He is a warlike Farseer who previously served as an Autarch, after following several different warrior Aspect paths first. To this end, the conversion looks a little different to the other Eldar Farseers. He is dressed in more dynamic, loose-fitting garb with a high military-style collar and an outstretched hand casting a pyschic power as he launches himself forwards into battle. This conversion now represents a similarly militaristic Farseer from my own craftworld, Miruaun.

1. Similar to some of my other HQ conversions, this Farseer also stands on part of a wrecked Revenant Titan.

The left leg was repositioned by sawing out the back of the knee and bending the leg. The gaps were then filled with Green Stuff.

2. This Farseer is modelled more dynamically than most Farseers.

3. A close-up of the Farseer. The detailing on the original Prince Yriel miniature includes runes from the Dire Avenger and Striking Scorpion warrior aspects; this Farseer previously walked those Paths before becoming a Farseer.

6. A close-up of the ruined Titan mask on the base. I used a craft knife to carefully hack away at the large gem so that it appears to be cracked and shattered.

The outstretched hand was taken from the plastic Farseer kit.

This section of rune armour from the plastic Farseer kit was filed down and carefully blended into the chest. The original detail below was removed with a drill.

This row of clasps was modelled further up the cloak to match the model's movement and the position of his left shoulder.
