Very dirty, worn, and beaten. I like it. I have to ask, though: What is the goopy hot glue-looking stuff in the third picture?

Fantastic paintjob, though i think the base is a bit much lol. Looks more like a centerpiece than a model you field with that base.

From a technical aspect, it all looks very good. The dynamic poses are sweet, and reasonably realistic. From a subjective standpoint, I don't dig on the dinged up look on Tau. I think it runs against the fresh, dynamic vibe of the army. Nevertheless, nice work.

The base is a bit too much for my taste. Aside from the impractical size of it (unless it's intended solely as a display piece, in which case the size is fine ) the extreme angle that he's standing on doesn't look right, and he's missing the sense of motion that would show him to be falling through the ceiling...


I do quite like the colour scheme, though, and the lighting effects are nicely done.

The roughed up style is really good on the Riptides and the bases are beautifully done but I don't feel they fit the pose of the Riptides they look a bit like they're gonna topple over.

For the Lion and Terra!

Because nothing in the galaxy is black and white, Mankind views the Space Marines as a last resort. The last line. When all else fails. They take up the burden. The noble defenders of Mankind. The last hope.

With finecast you can bypass the washing stage and throw them straight into the bin.

Or cut out the middleman and just flush some money down the toilet.

Sign of a good mini

P.S.A. I won't read your posts if you break it into a million separate quotes and make an eyesore of it.

I like the paint job, but they look like they are on the verge of crashing over.
