Rather than keep making individual posts, I'm just going to update this one as I work.

Comments and advice are always welcome!! Thanks for looking and I hope I sparked something creative in your work

First up....

My converted Tau Ethereal. I am using the Empire Hurricanum wizard as the base mode. I have a set of male Kadesh heads coming from Zealot Miniatures....hopefully sooner rather than later!

Not 100% certain what else I'm going to do to convert him...sculpting/modeling wise.

Worked on the cloak today, inspired by the Samurai Space Marines color scheme (purple fading into red).



I'm happy with the blending so far. Next is to darken the shadows and put some highlights on.

Finished up the ethereal!

You can see him in the showcase:
