Right well after a little harassment I took some photos of the two elysian squads I've been working on. They still require a few tweaks, but they are not far off.
Squad 1
Squad 2
Base for 1st squad 3 melta gunner
No painting this eveing as I'm going to frazzle my mind watching inception. Though I aim to fully complete painting these guys on Saturday and Spend part of Sunday painting Valkyrie interiors :)

Crap.. I may have some competition for Best painted ;)
daaaaamn, I need to paint harder...
Harder... Damn you all!
I doubt the competition is there. I'm not sure their up there yet. Though they are certainly an improvement on my space wolves.
They look fantastic! Seeing the development of the figures is seriously tempting me to get out my Bretonnians to get back into painting WH!
Definitely get them out and get back into wh, especially with 8th Ed out now.
Great job makes me want to put the kids to bed early so I can work on mine while the wife watches the bachelor. I like the visors. I have started mine off with blue but feel they stick out too much.
Hey, thanks for the comment.
I had tempted the blue myself, but want to try and limit the amount of colours I added into the project. I am however going to inject just a little blue I feel. There are a few spots I've not finished such as on the chest plates and on the backs. I've been holding off as I could not quite decide the shade.
I aim to finish the third squad and then go over all three squads and make those final tweaks. Then it's just the 4th squad and the two command squads and vendettas....
Makes me realise how little time is left before throne of skulls is here.
Very nice looking figures. I do have a question though, some of those guns do not look familiar (yes, I do have my own Elysians). Did they come from another manufacturer or are they converted from something?
Awesome work so far and I am in a major Valk build out myself, so I look forward to seeing yours painted.
Cheers,
Thanks for posting all weapons are FW. Elysian lasguns, Elysian las cutters (using these as melt as in this squad) and finally Cadian vet shotguns :)
>> Cadian vet shotguns <<
Ok, got it. I thought I recognized the las cutters (just recently got a pack), but it was the shotguns that weren't familiar. Very nice looking though, I'll have to keep that in mind.
Have you used the "scanner" from the IA8 list yet? It seems like an interesting piece of kit at short range. Not so sure of the value at the long range setting.
Cheers,
I've yet to run these guys as elisions. I've set them up as an ig codex aircav that way they are gw tourney legal :)
