Alright, so its been awhile since I've picked up a brush, after letting my friend borrow my brushes I will need new ones (it was not pretty). So I've been thinking about Tau... I found myself in a situation where my friend bought Dark Eldar and proposed the idea that I start a new army. I love the look of these models (very dynamic poses without massive amounts of conversions). So I'm trying to figure out what color scheme to paint my tau. I have two ideas, one is just a mish mash of colors and the other is a sept scheme from the Codex.

Side Note: I don't have any of the colors required for EITHER scheme, so buying paint is already included within the planning process

Vior'la Sept:


and the mish mash of colors



Will hopefully get some basic colors down on my kroot

the Vior'la Sept one looks like it would be cool for standard troops and the mash one looks like it would be cool for elites and vets.
