eldar corsair void dreamer

commissioned project

This interesting commission was to create a Void Dreamer - an Eldar Corsair HQ unit from Forge World's Imperial Armour Volume 11: The Doom of Mymeara. The client wanted the Void Dreamer to look foreboding and a bit otherwordly. The new plastic Farseer kit offered a great starting point and the blank helmet of a Spiritseer helps to give an alien impression. The Neural Shredder also needed to look advanced and ancient but not too obviously Eldar, as it supposed to be a discovered relic of a lost civilisation. The billowing robes from the Empire Battle Wizard kit and the outstretched hand from the Farseer unify the directional flow of the model's pose and make it look like he is casting a psychic power.
