So, how about a crisis commander converted to look like gundam astray?

White Dwarf ran an article on reposing crisis suits a long time ago and they advised people to simply turn the shin around. I've seen hundreds of models like that, it's pretty much common place. I wouldn't call it a mistake.

Love the work want to see more big luka fan.

Those giant doll heads are terrifying. Nice paint jobs though.

God I hate vocaloid. Nice idea and good execution though

Love it man. The chibi heads are a little much, but might as well use em if you got em! And most people will be too distracted by them to even notice the Gundams falling from orbit lol. There's way too many similarities between the two, keep up the good work! I'd love to see Altron Gundam!

Ok just found this whilst searching for Tau armies to base painting off from. You my friend have made my number one to base my Tau after. Mainly because of the Gundam. I think I'm gonna model a few off from Gundam Kampfer from War in The Pocket. Which just so happens to be my favorite Gundam. Now if only I could give my models nuke bazookas....

Great job!

The kid that saves his hard earned cash to get his army together only to face off against yours will only think one thing

"That is pretty cool. I didn't even know you could do stuff like that. One day I'm going to do that."

...now that's not to say we should let him run tau, though. Children are the future, can't let them make mistakes like that

This is NOTHING but..... awesome.

This is the best thing ever.

It may also be the worst thing out there except for those Hello Kitty armies.


Seriously, creative, well built and awesome painting. I really liked the modification to the Skyray's front turret and the unique broadside construction.

*Totally* wasn't feeling this work until I saw Miku's Ride. I don't care if it's a decal. It's really awesome. Very nice, very creative.

Awesomely Creative

Amazing!

what a colourful amry and amazingly done

This is absolutely fantastic. I love the Tau, I really wish they'd get a new book so I could play them.

Why do they need a new one?
Sure it's old, but you can still collect and play the force - I just started a Tau army, going to run 1-3 battleforces + 2 Hammerheads to start, and frankly I don't think the large number of 30" S5 shots will do badly, even at BS3. Then theres the hammerheads beatsticks

Sure the armies old and probably outshone by a lot but doesnt mean you cant still have fun with it.

Freaking sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!

Thanks for all the comments everyone!
I'm putting the finishing touches on a brand new unit, and a bunch of new stuff will be posted up soon!
Get ready for more crazy creations!

Keep going 7y!

OK! A bunch of new units added to the Army! The OP has been updated with lots of new pics! Additional units include: "Haro" Shield Drones, new Crisis Suits, and......

Introducing the start of my Stealth Suit Team!

can you guess what I've made?

Very stealthy colors you picked out.

Looks good. Not keen on the massive heads, think it looks a bit gash compared to the rest of the models but yeah looks fairly good!

Cyclones rock!

Nice, from third robotech series. Very nice cyclones.

Lol, I love 'em!

This is an awesome thread! I love it!

I love the look of this army, quite honestly it's the best Tau army I've seen to date. First time I ever saw Tau I instantly thought of anime and still do whenever I see them. The conversions and scratchbuilding are simply awesome and I for one just love the large heads, they tie together the theme of the army better than anything else. Also the decals on Miku's ride are the single most mindblowing thing since sliced bread.

Brilliant, just brilliant, keep up the good work.

wow. Thanks guys! This project keeps going because of all of you!

The Cyclone Suits were not really planned, but I got a killer deal on a pair, and the crazy ideas started speaking to me again. Guess I'll have to finish out the team with Rook and Lancer.
For the Luka fans, don't worry, I'm waiting for another Sky Ray. She gets one too.

I still think my project needs a lot of work, and I still have a lot to learn. Sliced bread? Thanks That means I'm catching up to Ovion! His Dark Eldar already give him toast.

Though I want to hate it with the fury of a thousand burning suns, your attention to details and the overall effect compel me to tip my hat to you.
