Tau Empire. Fire Warrior. 28 mm, brush and acrylic citadel.

Man, that looks great. Very artistic!

Great paintjob!

Awesome job!

Great method of painting! I wish I could make a model look like a mural.

God DAMN those blends are insane. That's an excellent model.

Thanks all)

Another Tau

Is this a commission?

Fantastic paint job, man. You've managed to make brown a truly interesting color to look at.

Got any tips or secrets on how you achieved the look? I would love to give it a try on some stonework later on.

Yes, it is - Commission
To achieve these colors, I stepped brown shade and added yellow and white tint. enhance the contrast
Thanks)

Many Dakka users feel that it is appropriate to identify commissions as such up front. Either with a tag in the title, or just a friendly "hey, this is a commission." Even a prominent studio tag in the image (at the top, rather than the bottom) is fine. Otherwise, some folks can feel like they got lured in to look at a fellow amateur hobbyist's work, only to find themselves looking at what instead is, essentially, an advertisement for a commission service.

Just a friendly heads-up! Very lovely Tau thus far!

Are those citadel colors? I cant seem to find those that you mentioned.... and I absolutely love how these came out! Great work

That is beautiful. I could add a political joke about you Russians invading Sweden, but that would be inappropriate.

Jimsolo - I do not understand the meaning of the Commission points out. I painted - I painted - the commission or not.

WhiteDwarf- This is all the colors - the citadel. New and old)

And - Yes - yes - yes) are Russian)))) Russian took over the world))
Thanks all)

I do not understand this either. Demidov was showcasing some of his work. Even if it was a commission, I don't see why it would matter if all he was doing was displaying something that he did. Nowhere in his post did he make this an advertisement.

Anyways, great work Demidov! These are very awesome! How many firewarriors do you plan on doing like this?

Fantastic work on the armour -I've rarely seen a rank and file model done to such a high standard. Inspirational
