Hello and welcome.

Question.... what is the other army that you collect?

Look forward to seeing some pictures of your models.

My other army is IG. They are at about 800-1200 points depending on the amount of tanks. My birthday is tomarrow and I am hoping that the Tau battleforce I asked for got bought

You may want to go over you last post. I noticed a few spelling mistakes. Although I am not an "Admin", they are strict on spelling so you may want to go over your last post and correct any errors.

(don't worry I had to do it on my 1st post).


Hope to see some pictures of your armies soon. Happy Birthday tomorrow, I hope that you do get that battleforce.

Thank you
I was going to post some pictures, but I wasn't sure were or how to post them?

This is my Atlas Recovery Tank I got for christmas,




One question, do I have to use the IMG button in the tool bar or can I use the IMG code straight from photobucket because it has the IMG stuff already at the ends?

Hey Si'gma Ch'i,
Welcome to the forums!
Here's a link to a guide to posting pictures (incluiding using photobucket)
Hope it helps.

Edit: Happy birthday By the way

Thanks for the tip, that explains everything!

I love the blue on your tanks. What paints did you use to paint it?

You got any more pictures? Hope to see some pictures of your Tau after your birthday.

The tanks were painted using Shadow Grey airbrushed over Chaos Black primer
I have a WIP Thread here http://www.advancedtautactica.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=18254&p=228898#p228898

Well, due to a move and reality getting in the way, my Tau have been put on hold for now. I have, however, been trying to finish my Marines so they will be ready to take on the Chicago Bunker . I will try to post some pictures as soon as I find my camera again. Now where did it go this time......
