Still a lot of work to do but I think the model really captures the #exodite feel. Space elves on dinosaurs. What more could you ask for? It'll be a free download to #3dprint soon. #warhammer40k #nerdlings #miniatures

Given the recent #Aeldari #Exodite leak just want to get it on the record that as the initial Void Elf range nears completion I was already planning a range of #proxy #3dprinted #miniatures that happened to be space elves and dinosaurs. #nerdlings #warhammer40k
