When are the Eldar going to get a redesign so they stop looking so fucking goofy?
>>
>>98517532

this looks like an illustration on the back of a star wars expanded universe novel about palpatine's clone's evil brother-in-law's ShadowDarkUmbralTroopers with armor made from a rare metal mined only on one planet that makes them immune to the force and vong bio cum-gun blasts

Looks like a Rogue Trader era Eldar illustration to me.

When the hole in Jes Goodwin's arse heals up, and we're all the better for it.

Two of the guys front middle and the guy with the rocket launcher at the back have absolutely gigantic pauldrons, it looks like the artist forgot they weren't drawing Space Marines

Realism is bad design.

I will forever be mad that they redesigned Eldar to not have face grills. "We need muhrines to look unique so we made everyone else less cool".

The red helmet one is actually the original, but the artist was told last minute that they'd be using a different colour scheme for the boxart this piece was intended for. That led to him starting to recolour the piece with the yellow helmets, but he never finished it (that's why the yellow helmets look less polished, and why there's still a lot of red helmets).
The yellow helmet version is the edited one.

Oh that's neat. Thanks.
I feel like there was a reference to this piece in an epic 40k eldar art work but its vague.
>>
>>98521822
Reasonably sure this artwork is for epic 40k, first or second edition of it anyway.
>>
>>98522014
iirc it was never actually used
>>
>>98522014
The weapons are all RT era design and for some reason the memory is tied to the 3rd ed one actually called Epic 40K but its not a clear enough one.
Which makes it even more amusing as the OP, because the eldar indeed have had several redesigns since then.
The art I'm remembering is probably me mixing together different box art images, its a while ago.

Give me more good looking female Eldar models
