Customer briefing

Aeldari on ice

Our client returned to the workshop eager to expand his Ice Eldar force. He was familiar with our method and trusted us to maintain the aesthetic we had built together: glacial tones, cold reflections, and icy textures on the bases.
The briefing was straightforward: reproduce the designs from the previous project and apply them to the new units, without any noticeable break between the first and second batches. The new troops—Swooping Hawks, Sky Weavers, Fire Dragons—had to feel like part of the same army, even though they added dynamism and variety.
The premium level was maintained in all pieces, from heroes to vehicles, with special attention paid to the Wraith Knight, the new visual centerpiece of the set.

Wraith Knight in the Blizzard

The expansion was approached with a very methodical workshop strategy. First, the base armor was painted en masse, using an airbrush and translucent glazes to match the tones of the previous pieces.
Then each painter took on a specific set, constantly checking the references from the first commission. The heroes, such as Eldrad and the Warlocks, received special attention, with their stellar capes painted freehand on a pearl blue base.
The project was completed with the assembly of the Wraith Knight, a monumental figure that unified the entire army. After checking for consistency, we carried out the final QC and photo shoot.
