ah gday,

im lookin to start a new army and ive always liked the tau. i really like the XV25 suits and whilst lookin at pics of em i thought...perhaps i could use them to represent crisis suits!

what do you guys think? reckon itd work?

cheers!

Too small, as indicated by a 25mm base for XV25s and a 40mm base for crisis suits.

Good way to save money, but as a collecter of tau myself i love the crisis suits too much.

And there are always the very nice Forge World Suits

Don't want to hijack the thread, but I've been doing some conversions using the XV25 parts on XV8 bodies - I also prefer the look of the Stealth suits, but they're WAY too small to represent Crisis suits.

I wanted to do a similar thing, turning them to XV22s like Shadowsun's suit. However it's very hard to make them look the part.
