This is my new tau commander, converted shield drones and commander, most notable bits being his head and the cyclic ion blaster I made.



**I'm probally going to replace the pic with a more clear one later, but for now it gives you the generally idea of the model at least.

I like the look of your shield drones. It is hard to tell much about the model extraneous of that- did you take the picture with the macro setting? It seems like the background is in focus but the foreground is not.

It's my stupid cellphone while my camera is unavailable :-/.

I can't tell, how did you connect the drones to the shield effect?

I cut off the very tips of the floaty sticks and attached them to the undersides of the drones, so just a bit of it is sticking out. and I can still use the floaty stick in a base if I want to glue something to it still.

cool, i like the pose the commander is in and the shield drones attached to his back. is that a cyclic conversion on his left hand?

That was totally wicked love it
