So this all began when I was reading my codex and I came across the Avatar entry. The whole concept really struck me, and I kept visualizing what an Avatar would look like in my army. For those of you who don't know me, I really like infantry, and the way they look on a game table. I feel in love with the Eldar when I saw the Swooping Hawks, and well it was pretty much the same for the Avatar.
Having never seen an actual Avatar in action, I was somewhat at a loss as to what exactly he looked like. When I finally did find photos of the GW model I was sorely disappointed. Now I like GW and usually their models are of very high caliber, but the Eldar Avatar was a real let down. It only stands slightly taller than a Farseer, and the proportions are way off. I also found the Forgeworld model online, but since my money growing oak tree died, I was a little short.
