The Cry of the Void Dragon – Eldar Autarch

This commission’s core brief was straightforward: create an Autarch for Saim-Hann, but with dramatic wings. The goal was to give this Aeldari a look that immediately conveys immense speed and destructive power—a miniature poised to travel 30 inches and obliterate a key enemy unit.

The resulting conversion perfectly captures this intent, drastically altering the miniature’s silhouette in a way that truly enhances the design. The Autarch is transformed from a “confident space elf with a plan” into an “airborne murder-meteor.” It’s a fantastic, aggressive aesthetic that is highly fitting for the Saim-Hann craftworld.
