thanks guys:)

Brown stuff is indeed cork but white is plasticard... first time to use plasticard and i will never forget how frustating is to cut&shape and make hexagonal texture in such thick sheet:|~ But its finished:D

Oh and green bits are greenstuff... black base its cd plastic box and for nid plants internal structure i used fimo since its much more cheap than full GS

SoulFire here dude. ;)

Plasticard is easy to use when you get the hang of it. That and a very sharp blade are essential. :)

There\'s probably some plasticard with that texture already, but as usual it\'s hard to get around here.

And as I already said, good work! :beer:

thanks folks:beer:

@demonherald i agree eldar stuff from GW always looked not ornamented so not really reflecting eldar sensibility or style, i have always imagined a mix of nouveau art with hitec eldar structures for them and im glad i had the oportunity to sculpt something in those lines.

Cool - I like those \'Nid plants - are they anything like the huge stabby plants from the original half life...?

I took ideas after i saw a video of a giant centipede eating a rat... blended it with forgeworld capilary towers concepts and the centinide plant was born
