Hello all,

Thanks to everyone for the responses. Was a real labor of love trying to make a true conversion and not just slapping bits together.
Right now a small part of the rats are on display in the Tokyo games workshop in Harajuku. Here are a few more photos the manager took when I brought them in. I still have to finish the Warp-Tide (ran outa paint ><!) but will try and get those photos soon.

These are awesome. Very well executed. Very fitting too. I always thought the Tau were a bunch of commie rats!

Glory is fleeting, but obscurity lasts forever.

Considering also your duty as a warrior you should not waver. Because there is nothing more auspicious for a warrior than a righteous war.

Really dig them! They look awesome. Great blend of steampunk madness and near future mecha tech. They give a really awesome shogunate vibe as well, at least, to me. Looking forward for a Riptide or such!

Ha, quality! I always thought skaven would convert best to an Eldar-Dark Eldar mix, but this is quality!

Though guards may sleep and ships may lay at anchor, our foes know full well that big guns never tire.

that is hilariously awesome.

Plus i like some of the half-cybernetic stuff you did, like using a regular Tau leg on some of them but still a rat leg on the other side.
