Hey all,

Just wanted to post up some models I recently did. This is a big batch of Tau armor. I was pretty proud of the final result, especially the big images as they have an eerie feel to them. The army was painted to exactly match an existing image of a paint scheme.

For more images of my work visit the Blog or Facebook . Thanks for looking!

Holy crap! Dude, way to bring home the perfect Tau scheme! The clean colors convey the cohesive, dynamic energy of the Tau empire perfectly, while still conveying an alien aesthetic. Amazing work.

Very cool stuff, very sci-fi looking. Are there going to be any infantry/suits in this scheme in future?

Very nice work. The color choice is fantastic and the little touches like autumn leaves on the bases are great. My only criticism is some of the line work for highlighting was a bit heavy handed on areas such as the Hammerhead engines, but that is a minor quibble. Thanks for sharing.

No earth shattering, thought provoking quote. I'm just someone who was introduced to 40K in the late 80's and it's become a lifelong hobby.

I agree, very nice airbrush work, and the greens are superb, but the edge highlights seem a bit rushed. Still, beautiful stuff!

Dear lord, it's beautiful.

Out of curiosity, what is the little narrow jet-looking vehicle, that got her own solo shot after the FW flyers, but before the Hammerhead with dynamic tank commander?

1.) Holy mother [string of expletives deleted] that is glory in an airbrush medium

2.) Why is the lead devilfish missing the green accents on top next to the nacelles? Is there a 'powered down reference or something?

@Rennoc. The Sunshark bomber? Or do you mean the little attack drones?

I think that is a razorshark strike fighter with some parts cut off.


1. Go to FLGS on a 40K game night.
2. Announce to no one in particular "I have over 10,000 points of Space Marines".
3. Sit back and watch as some 30-ish Neckbeard who still lives with his parents not only disputes your claim, but goes on to describe his 30,000 points of Blood Angels and how he has been playing since Rogue Trader days... And yet you will have never seen him either play 40K or that army.
4. From here, you have several options. Continue the conversation, or just end it. Either way, I guarantee you will waste 1+ hour of your life talking to this guy. Have fun!

I particularly like the green. It is a really nice accent color to go along with the paint scheme.
