Vampire Raider

 Here is the biggest resin print I have ever made - an Eldar Vampire Raider. I started of with these files for a Hunter, and then added these 3rd party fin, and made up my own remixes for the guns and sensors. I had a hell of a game printing this, hence all the failed parts that I made into scenery. For Barnhammer, this is the personal transport of the Void Prince of Mai-Bai.

Last unpainted Corsairs - promise!

 Last few, honestly! Yes I'm sick of them too, but eventually I have to paint them!


Guardian style Corsairs.



Weapons Platforms - I'll use a spare GW Brightlance once I get my Eldar back out of storage, post move.

Felarchs, all rifle and sword types plus two Flamer Storm Guardians


More detachment HQ types - apparently lore wise, these would be Void Barons.


These are Void Dreamers/Farseers.

Corsairs - almost there!

Almost at the end of the Corsairs! Since after doing 30 Void Reavers and 10 Void Scarred for close assault and the same number of rifle armed squads, I decided to build the last 24 models as Guardian analogues (plus 4 HQ characters) - given my custom Craftworld is basically a pirate haven it makes sense for some of the troops to be outfitted with Guardian equipment. You've already seen many of the Corsairs wear Guardian helmets, so I'll need to create some fiction to explain all this in due time. I decided to do a squad with Catapults and one as Storm Guardians with close assault weapons. This means two of my Corsair detachments in our Apocalypse game will be:

Void Prince (Autarch)

Void Dreamer (Farseer)

1 x Void Scarred

3 x Void Reavers

1 x Guardians 

Plus transports as needed.

Onto the models:


Last 4 Void Reavers with sword and pistol and one with Wraith Cannon.


Last 4 rifle armed Reavers


First 8 Storm Guardians


I'm waiting for the post to complete the 2 Flamers for the guardians as well as arms to complete some Reaver Felarchs.

Corsairs - after these, the last 40!

I've been building more heavy weapons troops, using the same Shuriken cannon as before, but I tweaked the file to now include the guardian arm. The Wraith cannons use the back half of the Shuriken cannon, the nose of a scaled down Wraith cannon for Wraithguard. I had to replace most of the fins as the first set all broke.

Corsairs - getting bored now, but I have more to build!

Next batch, most of the arms aren't aligning well so everything needs GS work - tiresome.

Corsair Special Weapons

Just a few more corsairs with Blasters and Shredders.

Yet more Corsairs

A few more completed, including one with a shuriken cannon from a Phoenix Lord proxy where the print failed. A few Guardian bits later and it's back in service!

Even more (but Darker) Corsairs

Originally I bought the Dark Elf Corsairs to combine with the left over Void Scarred bits, but since I found better STLs, this kit got parked. Revisiting it, I used some scrap Shuriken pistols, which I'd printed undersized (but which looked fine on these guys) to make another squad of slightly theatrical Corsairs. The guys without arms will be special and heavy weapons once I get the necessary bits.

Corsair rifles

 Another group of Corsairs, using up some spare Shuriken rifles.

Aeldari Corsairs

 Like the Arbites, I've been 3d printing a load of extra bodies to use up the spare bits, and then going over board so I now own 90 Corsairs - but luckily another big player at Barnhammer- detail once we get moved and paint starts landing on these models.

Here are the KT Voidscarred, photos are fuzzy - apologies but they've been packed away now.





Here are first of the 3d printed ones, using left over arms, there will be more in  the next few days.

Eldar Corsair HQs

You are probably thinking that there are no Corsair HQs, even if you are running legends. This is sort of true, way back when, FW did have a Void Prince and a Void Dreamer in their publications. For the former, you used an Autarch, and for the later, I guess a Farseer or similar. As I do have some old FW Corsair models, and have printed some bits to field a few more, I really fancied making some suitable HQs, usable with modern rules, that I could run with them.

My Void Prince is from the AOS range, a Scinari Loreseeker with 3d printed jump pack, fusion pistol and head. 

The Void Dreamer is also from the AOS range, an Isharann Tidecaster, also with a jump pack, new head and the staff head replaced with a singing spear tip.

The two beasts are from Kromlech and look suitably Gyrinx like, albeit bigger and more ferocious, and are just here for show.

Void Dragon Phoenix - PIP


Managed to get one of these old chestnuts, and given we have customisable craftworld rules coming, I fancied returning to doing a scheme I dropped for Alaitoc (since it's easier and the rules in 8th are good). Therefore, it's heading into my Mai-Bai scheme of white and red which seems more appropriate anyway since this version is supposed to be a corsairs vehicle, and my force uses a lot of older guardians with lasguns which are closer to the old Corsair lasblasters.If only Corsairs still had an HQ choice, I'd be running them.
