Hope I'm not to late to join in.

I'll be finishing off the last of my Tau infantry, a Dozen magnetised fire warriors with both rifle and carbine options, 5 Stealth suits and an Etherial. Here's how they stood on the 5th of August.


I did the majority of my base coating a few months back when I started re-painting the army. Indeed even the 40 drones and 4 tanks are all primed up to a similar point. About the only thing I haven't put much effort into is the 40 Kroot who are primed grey and have their basing glued on at least

I managed a good days worth of painting today and the fire warrior bodies just need their armour panels cleaned up then they and Etherial are ready for the Quick Shade strong tone.



Now before anyone claims shenanagins about my progress I have me kids every other week and this month the company i work for is moving to another building so I'm already running out of time.

Nice done on the colors scheme! What colors have you used? For the shade and the final color

Yup he is metal, I butchered him when I got him a decade ago and did some sloppy sculpting to fix him up when I started re painting this army.

I Air brush my base colours with cheap artist acrylics like liquitexs basic matt. The basic scheme is a grey primer then a base coat of Sienna Then I hit the armour with Ocre, and the cloths and the browns are burnt umber. It all gets hit with army painter strong shade painted on and the end results are as follows







Its a very dirty and quick paint job just to get them done, I prefer to take my time on skirmish games and just curn out tabletop quality for GW games.

Here are the only pics I can find for now of some of my better paint jobs I'll tidy up my pictures and start a gallery in the proper place later.

Got another evenings worth of painting in and managed to not only finish my base coats but also painted on the Army Painter dip. Not the best picture but its hard to photo them at full gloss anyway.



So now I'm looking at a blast of Matt a shake of grass and 26 arms to paint up.

I've started working on a Hammerhead as an aside, It started off at the Ocre stage much like the other models. More pics of that and the arm progress soon.

Right, I got them all done.

12 Fire Warriors with Magnetic weapon options


5 OG Stealth Suits with a converted magnetic weapons


Metal Aun'Shi, more often appearing as a regular Ethereal


It feels good to get them off the table though I don't think I have enough month left to stretch out for any other models. The only Tau I have left to paint is 4 tanks, 4 Broadsides, 30 Drones and 40 Kroot and 3 Krootox, Not so fussed on the Kroot but I should get them done anyway. I think next month I might look at painting some Super Dungeon Explore.
