Hey guys I'm new to tau painting, mostly done space marines in the past. Been away from painting for a few years. Let me know what you guys think of this colour scheme I have done, if it's bad or good. Thanks!!

Looking really good to me ! I too am in majority a Tau painter, I don't really have much critique but id maybe go back and just slightly tidy up the highlights with the base colour on the left hand shoulder pad. With Tau I also like to make sure to get a nice even basecoat for my armour using thinner to make paints more consistent. I also really like the orange on white, its different to a lot of Tau I've seen previousily. Keep up the good work !

Thanks for the advice ghostkeel! Might try a few thin layers to build up, out of practice now you c

It looks really really nice actually. The white is perfect and I really like the dramatic shading.

If this is your first model in a few years give yourself a pat on the back man!

Cheers

Thanks mikey! Gives me a confidence boost now, wanted to try a different colour scheme from what I have seen out there. I know it's not much different from the White/red!

As I said previously looking great so far ! be sure to post up more pictures of your progress in the forum, always a good way of building on schemes and learning new tips !

Thanks again ghostkeel

Hey guys just a quick update. Tried doing a stealth suit let me know what you guys think?
