Unfortunately due to life perturbations that's all what have left from my cadre but I'm slowly rebuilding it or atlest I will try in some near future. Now I'm occupied with Craftworld Eldar fleet and I still need to finish my Man o'war Bretonian fleet.

Enjoy!

BTW painting hints and ideas are more than apreciated.

Forgoten. My vision for this topic is to became my project log actually.

Your painting skills are not bad at all my friend.

I would not have chosen that color scheme particularly, but your technique does not seem ill developed at all. Don't sell yourself short. =)

Also, nice Battle Fleet Gothic ships you have there. Have you put them through some combat trials or did you just collect them for the funzies?

I have a Custodian I bought just because I liked the model, but now that I am considering playing I am not sure what is a must have for a tau fleet.

Annyeo ngha seyo! - means "Hello"
(Hoping that I've written it good atleast from phonetic point of view. )

Thanks for appreciation for my painting thou I'm still frustrated about slow development.

About BFG I'm so called veteran here >>> I'm one from few people who actually played 2 (yes two) times, here where I am.
At low points You need to have at least 2 Protectors and 8 Castelans and maybe one Mesenger from GW Tau fleet.
One good piece of advice - in BFG Tau are really strong in Ordance (torpedos and Mantas).

I'm building BFG fleet mostly because I really would like to justify presence of my troops on the battlefield. While I'll finish this project I'm starting with Areonautica Imperialis, Tau Air force. Shame that there are no more Epic models at Forgeworld.

I'm really digging those Dark Angels-style wings on your commander. Nice touch.

I have found that those wings fits suits better than those for whom they were actually designed.

Excellent!
Bright colors!

Small update.

Firstly present from my wife:




My only SM





Wich






Finally stand for one of my XV15


Photos will be redone with better lighting.

The more stres I do have at work the more productive I'm after returning home

Another update.

Stealth paint tester. What do You think?



My 'Ui finnaly received his cape. Next cape for second 'Ui is being prepared.




Comments will be more than welcome.

Cześć! Dobrze widzieć jeszcze kogoś z naszej pięknej Polski!
[Hi! It's good to see somebody from our beautiful Poland!]

So your XV15 look good, I think it can go on for the rest of the team.
Yor painting also is good, don't worry about Galleries - those are the best painted models. You may try to make your highlights a bit more delicate, though if you like that style, stick to it. After reading through some ATT articles you'll find your painting progress amazingly. Especially if you paint, and not sit and just play them.

I really like your Kroots, and color scheme for Tau looks fine. I'm also under impression on your BFG.

Keep up & powodzenia [good luck]!

Cześć! Też się cieszę, że widzę rodaka! [Hi! I'm also happy to see my countryman!]

Now back to the topic.

Second cape for second 'Ui is done.



Added small details to my Tau. Find what.

Last but not least, Hellios and my first ever attempt to make something glowing.








All comments and opinions are demanded even. Since I do not have possibility to play, develoaping painting skils is my goal now.

Leigabar.

Nie ma to jak Polska Siła XD
(Nothing like a Polish Power)

Those Battlesuit's look great but my piece of advice is, on larger models with big surfaces ( the crisises, space marines pauldrons, etc) thin your paints with 1:2 or 1:3 water ( one part water, and the later paint). They will look less "bulky" that way.


Btw, I LUV the second cape 'Ui ^^

Jeszcze jeden Polak! [Next Pole!]

Thanks for comment. This suits will stay as they are due to the fact that I would like see if I'm actually making some progress.
I would like receive some feedback about glowing effect at plasma. Is it good?

Also I've started some project called "SCOR" - count as Kroot knarlock riders. I'm hoping that next month I will be able to post some photos already.

Also I'm in process on creating solid fluff for Poachers but until I will be finally able to model 12 Gue'va it's rather fluid concept.

B.Regards,
Leigabar

Update time.

4 xv15 painted finally(5 more in cleanning proces)



Second BASS



I'm hoping that You will enjoy!

Leigabar

Ooh, I'm really diggin' that Broadside. Most Broadsides tend to have a static pose because of the metal parts in the kit, but yours is dynamic and really brings the suit to life. All of the little subtle conversions are nicely integrated, but I'm not so keen on the chaos spikes in his left hand; they don't really suit the Tau aesthetic. Nice Astartes base as well, looks like a suitably "aged" corpse with the skull (I think it's a skull, hard to tell in the pictures ) and the hollow-looking, chipped armor shell. You are painting that poor man in the colors of you local marine player, right?

Hello,

This is Iron Halo not Chaos spikes, You heretic!
Space marine on the base is what have left from Ultra and it's quite fresh.
I should be able to paint this during weekend (at least base) so You can expect new photo at Monday.


Leigabar,

Update.

Bang! Bang! I shoot You down. Bang, bang! You hit the graund. Bang, bang! That awful sound...




Normally I'm doing bases as soon I finish miniature, but this time I've made an exepction. Of course now I'll have problem with painting rest of BASS but I just couldn't resist.

Enjoy.

Leigabar

Doh! I just failed. Still not sure if it fits with the rest of the sit, though. Some Marine bits do a surprisingly good job of blending, but I don't know if i've ever seen that part used before.

I almost lost that Marine in the flock and blood .

Not good. Means that I've failed, or maybe this Bad ASS stomped this poor Ultra to many times.
Well tomorrow I should be able to post photo of fully painted miniature.

Leigabar,

Heh, I love the marine or what's left of him!

I'm working on a Crisis Suit curb stomping a Space Wolf. XD
