@ Lord Commander Erus: No, I don't have a full chapter - I really can't be arsed doing that many little army men. It's only a reinforced company (so, 100 fighting men+transports and command sections, plus some scout units, fast attack units and a crapload of armour to go with them.). I've done some mods and kitbashes for the vehicles though. I'm a Star Wars fan, and member of my local 501st garrison, and the dudes are painted up in the white armour/blue detailing of the "501st". All up it comes in at around 8500pts or so (but they do have their own BFG fleet, too.). Yes, I've fielded all of it for an apocalypse game, and had a blast with it.
My Eldar are around the 10 000pt size and number a couple of hundred infantry, a dozen or so tanks and skimmers, many wraithlords and walkers, and a single titan. Oh, and far from it being an expensive hobby, many of the walkers and infantry are older RT models, and a large chunk were sourced 2nd hand for a fraction of the price. I try to alternate my armies so I don't get tired of them.

Thanks for the comments.
