It's been a while since I've uploaded anything or even painted anything seriously. I'm pretty happy with this Battlesuit, but probably just because I like the pretty Hawk Turquoise.
I know it's probably not a proper loadout of gear (I've never really even read the Tau Codex) but I just fitted him out to my aesthetic taste.
Comments and constructive criticism are good, I like learning.

The stripes on the shield and shield generator on the back are very cool. As is the helmet. But I'm not a huge fan of the colors or pose. Not that i really dislike them though.

The loadout is actually okay; Missile Pod and Plasma Gun makes a nice ranged suit.

And the painting is pretty brilliant, as well!

Good job all around!

Also digging the OSL on the MT and chest light

Good job dude. I like the subtle battle damage.

Gee, thanks guys! I'm not too happy with the battle damage myself and this the first time I've ever tried OSL, but thanks for the kind comments.

@g0atmilk: I know what you mean about the pose, I wanted a sort of charging forward thing but I was a little too scared to attack it with a saw.

Really good!
