This was my attempt at converting the static, ( at least in my opinion) Tau Crisis suit,




I made several changes and a decent amount of plsticard work, I used a drone to work for the shield gen as I liked the look a bit more, And I used magnets for the the plasma and fusion, I also count it as having iridium, and the vectored for the hit and run,
Just a way I wanted to run one.
Comments and Crtiz please

It looks good, though the right arm looks a little odd. I'd angle it out or make it more perpendicular to the ground.

Methinks you should beef up the calf and ankle slightly and bend the right arm a little more at the elbow. Other than that, nice posing. =)

Beautiful, dynamic pose not seen in many Tau models. I like it!

that is absolutely immense, it takes the GW standing look and shoves it up itself. i really love it, it looks like he's running up out of fire and about to jump into flight.
awesome

That really is good. How did you make the torso swivel like that ?

I actually had to cut the model in half and give him hips, using alot of plascard work ect.

My 4 YO saw the pic and asked "What's that?" I replied " A robot." He then states... "The robot's walking!"

If my 4 YO can see it then it must be good. That is a very dynamic pose and kicks real donkey. It shows movement without devolving into the nearly "leg kicking backwards" GW style running pose. Keep up the great work.
