Hello All,
Long time lurker here, love everyone's blogs and models. Decided its time to do my own. It has been over 10 years since I have last played and painted...back then Tau were just being rumored and the machina/gundam styles drew me in. I'm military, so move around alot and sometimes it's hard to find a good gaming group. My new base has a strong one and they got me back in. So while I wait for various orders to arrive, I started painting other peoples models to get back into practice. So without further ado...the things I've painted.

P.S. It has been hard when only given a limited color palette and no ideas/wants/color schemes to go by...but eh, I digress

Started out with a Berzerker and a Warpsmith










Then he wanted me to "Chaosify" one of his Dark Angels...hack and slash time I suppose









All together now:

Admittedly, they could have been better. But only painting with 6 colors I think, I did ok...

Then he says "Hey...try some Warptalons..." I proceed to beg and barter for more colors...

Oh yeah...and a Chosen





Somewhere in the intervening time...the Warpsmith got a dunk in a wash...




Sorry for the ADHD type timeline...but I bounce back and forth between models...

And...they multiplied





And that's as far as they got since the guy had to pack up and move to a different base. Feel bad leaving stuff un-finished, but he liked them up till that point



Now...what to paint next?

Of course I got bored, so I bought some BFG!!!






And then some Kroot off of eBay







Now I am waiting for some Crisis Suits, a Riptide, a Despoiler Battleship, and a Retribution Battleship to come in...then more for the painting!!!

Some BFG Battleships in



And then my lizardmen that count as firewarriors. Also some stuff to make a Tau Outpost
