I guess I always imagined a Stealth Field Generator being something that wasn't 'hiding in the bushes.'

PS I still love your warmachine base idea.

Pffffft
That just proves how good stealth fields are. The bush is an illusion.
@mattrs: great work man. I love the subtle variation in tone that you've achieved with the green on the Devilfish. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

cheers for the comments guys, will keep knocking things out and try to update a bit more often

Wow these have some amazing paint jobs, the purple lenses and sept symbols are just incredible.

Next Tau Spotter for the 2nd Sniper Drone Team





C&C always welcome

Cheers

That looks great, where are you guys getting your custom bases? or how do you make them?

The bases are made by myself from scratch. The blank black base is from a company called dark age. then its just cork board, sand, gravel and bits.

Inspiring word man, keep it up!

I think these are now my favorite tau. Yep. There's an army somewhere else on the internet that's done up in World War II Japanese colors that's pretty boss, but that one gets 'runner up' to these. They're just so well done! *envy*

Wow thank you very much

Well its been a mad 4 or 5 weeks with nota whole heck of a lot to show for it bloody kids lol. Have Been painting 2 devil fish and some gun drones for the Open War event in October so i hope to have them finshed and pics up soon, this will give me a fully painted 1750pts army.

But for now a break from the old tau, had a go at a test model for a possible Ork army, i know it has the odd mould line but it is just a test model and it was free.







Tell me what you think, he is in the display cabinets in the Minatures Hall @ War Hammer World Nottingham at the mo

Hi Matt,

First of all, I have flicked through your thread from start to finish and I'm really impressed with your Tau army. Motivates me to finish my 1500pts ready for September!!

Secondly, the Ork is pretty freaking awesome. You have done a great job in highlighting the level of detail in this mini - I freaking love the AOBR minis and the warboss is no exception. The only 'visible' mould line is on the forearm but even then it's not huge, so kudos.

Very nice work on the power claw, I've saved that among my various real metal painting inspirations. Good palette choice too.

Though, that mould line does detract from a great paint job I have to say.

My god i had to look long and hard to find this old thread lol

Been ages since ive posted anything but i have been busy with real life im afraid.

Anyways for your consideration a new DE test mini. Let me know what you think.

Matt

better face on pic with no flash so you can see the red is darker

Really nice,

Love the shades of red. Are you going to do a whole army to this standard?
