Please rotate your pics.

Wonderful. Surely you could use it as one of the Forgeworld flyers or something they have for Tau if it has the same weapons or something? Although that would change how the model was used and such, and wouldn't be as walker-y in battles. Great looking model though.

Clever use of the Skyray and Piranha kits. Me like.

Awesome stuff! Both the paint job and the modeling pose both look great! I always like seeing the designs people come up with for the tau suits.

Great looking conversion. It could easily look like some plastic kit GW would release for Tau.
