Yeah I think its a shame for GW and a bit of a ****** move revealing this the day before GW are to reveal it. Looking forward to seeing proper non-potato cam pics. Not sure one it - I love the axe and I think I like the bare head but there's something with the new eldar designs that isn't for me . Corsairs look like they could interesting though.

Looks like a feather in their hair - maybe a riff on the old wood elf falconer model possibly to go with the sylvaneth? The corsair idea is because they are supposed to be more flamboyant than other eldar. [probably more of a long shot] Possibly a corsair. But I would love for wanderer + kurnothi to develop into an animal based sylvaneth army, worshipping Kurnoth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally be up for that as I've loved the Kurnothi that have been released and I've done a few centaur conversions- they look so cool. They are a force I'd collect other than dwarfs I think [although VC are very tempting]. Judging from Whitefang's likes I think this is a Corsair - which looks like a radical and interesting development for 40k. Might be possible conversion material for Kurnothi in the future too- you never know! GW have shown a proper pic of the new Avatar- looks amazing in proper photos.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnkdth Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) Based on this (the axe variant) I am going to assume FS are getting an avatar of Grimnir as their god-tier centrepiece model. Expectations be damned, it has to happen now. Edited January 27, 2022 by pnkdth 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elfhead Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 There’s an axe and helmetless option visible in the earlier leaked pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitzdee Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 For a model thats looking that good i find that the fire bits just look just a bit slapped on there last minute. Doesnt seem to blend that well, maybe its the paint job i dont know. I like everything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This leak isn't potato cam. It looks pretty good. Frankly I wish AoS got the leak treatment 40k gets. 40k leaks let them have an idea of what's coming down the pipeline for the next year. Meanwhile, AoS gets what? Long silence only broken when the self appointed arbiters of AoS leaks deigns to post some "cryptic" pic (could literally just say what's next but no... where's the fun in that? ). If potato cam leaks force their hand I'm all for them. 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that would look spectacular in a Greek themed Daughters of Khaine and Cities of Sigmar force. 😍 Holy moly. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 'Eavy Metal's painting style giving that effect I imagine since OSL is non-existent on their paintjobs and it has the effect of always making fire look unnatural.

KingBrodd Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 The bare head and axe/spear variant is bloody stunning. What an incredible looking model, amazing design and awesome for Eldar players!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucentia Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I've still got my fingers crossed for some accompanying DoK rules, but given all the eldar runes I'm not exactly holding my breath! Nice sculpt though, I might pick one up regardless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Imagine that spooky little Girl from the Poltergeist sitting next to her tv as the green ghosts sip into the bedroom) left model has a high chance of being Cities or Stormcast I think--that bird is either an aetherwing or another type of raptor. the right is Avatar of Khaine due to the leak that came out.

The new model could be the shadow queen and the cauldron statue or a autarch conversion could the the Morathi-khaine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
