So here is my K'tal jungle fighting tau.
Im really proud, Tau scared me because of the lines, but with a careful hand i was able to get everything right.
Everything here is hand painted, No airbrush or anything.
Out lets get this party started.
I cant seem to get good pictures of my crisis suits. Will try better in a few days.

Mmm this is a very nice scheme you have here. Really feel ''junglish'' to me. Your a very good painter IMO.

But is there a way you could highlight each colors? They kind of bland so much together, your end up wondering if the model is painted all in the same color.
But overall, I really like your work. Cant wait to see those crisis suits!

Very nicely done, love the dark green and decal details, looks very military, bravo!

And as to a contrast color to set off the dark greens, maybe a drybrushed highlight to add a bit of weathering effect, I would suggest bleached bone or a khaki, used sparingly will bring out some of the edges and muted bits.

Again very well done, keep up the quality work.

Very well painted, but the overall color scheme is very one tone and bland. I think you should try to work in some lighter green colors and paint more noticeable and contrasting lens details.
