It’s scrag brown and Khorne red. Not sure I am sold on it. Wanted some other input before I paint a complete supremacy suit. Lol. It’s actually my first tau unit. Thanks

I, personally, like the color scheme / palette.

That being said, I understand wanting others opinion's, it's ultimately your model and your army. If you don't like how you're proceeding it will be hard to find motivation to get it done!

You gotta love it! THAT'S what matters! (generic cliche answer, yes.)

BLAH BLAH....blah.

Fair enough answer. I am color blind and sometimes have trouble telling if the colors look good together.

I would say the colors that are together here are definitely a "good" combo together. As far as GENERAL matchups go, colorwise, this is one that definitely works. (a.k.a. - yes, I genuinely think they look good together.)

BLAH BLAH....blah.

Looks like a good combo from here, proceed!

MMMMMM Personally i think its ok except for the metalics

its a lot of Redish colors together.

i want to say ether go brassy or steel to get some contrast.

otherwise orange is cool

its a very under utilized color.

As a tau nerd, this is looking pretty good! I think Desubot had a good point about a lot of redish colors together, but I'm a huge fan of red on tau. Now that being said, brassy or steel would be cool for sure.

I really like it, quite unique and the colours go together well.
