http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/56.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net CSMs and I will be starting NGs soon (as some of you will know from another thread). As you will see later from the pictures I am going to need some help with motivation which is another reason I started this.

As the title says I will be starting with Tau.

This whole thing started few weeks ago I got into a conversation with a friend from my gaming club who saw me playing Tau (at this point I only had a 1500pt army which contained 6 crisis suits, 2 Devilfish, a handful of FW, a Hammerhead and a lot of proxies) and mentioned he had some sitting in a box in his house and I could have them on the condition that I used them, as he didn't want them to be wasted. When I saw him next a few days ago I was expecting a few FW maybe a Dfish. Then mid game he called me over and showed me all the models. I was rather suprised when I saw what he had bought.

Below are pictures of the all the models I now have (and yes I am scared of painting them all)



5 Devilfish (one is still on its sprue) and 2 Hammerheads.


18 crisis suits (1 not shown) and 3 broadsides.


23 stealthsuits


13 Pathfinders, 5 with railrifles


94 fire Warriors and 32 drones


60 Kroot and 1 shaper


3 knarloc riders and 6 kroothounds


I have been testing out colour schemes for weeks trying to find one I liked, I knew I wanted them city based but I didn't like any of the combinations that I tried. I was stuck, until I saw these models which since then have grown on me. The colour scheme is going to be this:

I didn't paint this one but I plan on finishing it off and painting the others the same way.

First I have to fix a lot of the models as bits need replacing, stripping and the suits need to be magnetized, but I should have a tester model up in the next few days.

Hopefully Night Goblins soon aswell.

Thanks for looking
