The clear stuff is gonna be lava, it should be more apparent after it is painted.

Very cool setup all around. Two of the pics are a bit blurry though.

Very nice.

May be too late for a final change, but I think it would look even cooler if the twin plasma were pointed at the marine's head.

Just my opinion though.

Tau feet center the weight onto the toes, which you have glancing off his shoulder. Id put them pushing his chest down, and like Monarrez said, aim the rifles at his head.

I also heartily applaud your choice in figs for the Commander. Hes the same guy Id use for mine if I did an army of Tau. How hard would it be to change out one of the plasma rifles you think?

@KiMonarrez
Reason The rifle isnt pointed at his head is to show kinda of the arogance of the Tau. Although the images do not really show it and I will probably enlarge it and throw some green stuff at it, there is a hole in the shoulder that the commander is not pushing down thats gonna be painted to look like a plasma hit. And with the commander holding down the Marine's other shoulder to stop him from defending himself and again because of the blurry pictures you can kinda see the "good arm" being covered in magma. Short storry the plasma rifle isnt being pointed at the guy's head because the commander really no longer considers him threating enough to fire another plasma shot at him.

@Aduro
Reason the feet are like that is because I couldn't figure out a stable way to keep him on the base without putting undue pressure on one ball joint or the other, and I wanted him to be pressing down the shoulder to "disarm" the one good arm.

As to changing out the plasma rifle are you refering to chaning the position? or just Swaping it for another gun?

Um... if he's feeling arrogant, and the marine isn't a threat anymore, shouldn't he be looking UP or at something else to the left or right? If he's looking AT the marine, and holding him down, then it follows he should be pointing his gun at him.

Also, you make it sound like he's torturing the marine. Seems rather un-Tau like. That's more of a Slaanesh chaos thing.
