Finished Tau Battlesuits

So I managed to finish the Battlesuits I was working on. It actually turned out alright!

Guardcon 40k doubles Tau

So I have started painting my 1000 points of Tau battlesuits for the Guardcon 40k doubles being held on the 13th/14th September.

All the Crisis suits are heavily converted as the original model is ugly as fuck.

I started with a black undercoat and followed up with airbrushed offwhite as seen in the 1st pic.

The 2nd pic shows the models after washing them black.

The stealth suits are going to be a dark grey with a small amount of a bright colour (maybe red) to tie them in with the rest of the army.

More after the next couple of stages.

Tau test model complete!

Finished my Tau test model. Decided on a Mars red planet type basing scheme. I think it contrasts well with the off white and grey of the Fire Warrior.

The next ones I paint I will try a darker OSL as on the current model it may be a little too faded.

Tau scheme

OK so I painted up a Fire Warrior to make sure the scheme I decided on is nice and easy to do as I have a lot to paint. Turns out it is! Woohoo!

Broadsides, also very cool.

This new Tau range is totally awesome!

Riptides look awesome!

Hey guys. My latest project is a Tau Empire army. I am very keen to start playing some games and have made a start on assembly.

Figured I would show you my Riptide as it is the coolest model I have put together in a long time.

I have also been working on a paint scheme and will post photos when I have a completed model.
