I like number 2 best but it could be possible to use all three schemes in the same army.

I'm a fan of number 2 too. Also, you might want to try thinning your paints a little as the white areas of number three look a little 'clumpy'. Good work overall though.

I like the #2 the most, because, it reminds me of urban camo,http://mysite.verizon.net/resoexqo/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/.pond/red_camo.jpg.w180h180.jpg

Are these close to being final models? I really cannot see any thing that would make it easy for me to decide. Perhaps cleaning them up a bit, and showing three models that are done would make it easier to decide between the different camo schemes

I like number 2 the best. Nice to see another Tau player!

Only advice is to thin down your paints, they are a bit clumpy.
