About the Project

My Tau have been languishing partly done for going on 20 years. The release of the new Farsight model made me want to finally get the army finished. They are organised by 20 years ago rules, but I'm sticking with it and they will hopefully finally be feeling loved again.

It’s slow work getting the yellow brown just right. I like it to be a nice solid colour which takes several coats and try to get as smooth a finish as possible which means thinning my paint but I have to careful not to go too thin as I want the crisp edges to show off the black lines on the finished tanks.
mistakes are inevitable so once this colour is done I will be touching up all the runs and smudges so I get those crisp lines and so the red areas will be applied on black with no smudges of yellow to muddy the colour.

I usually check & touch up black after every other colour cause I’m way too picky.

I know I’m supposed to be finishing them but….

I might have accidentally fallen for the new twin suits and may or may not have asked my Local Gameshop to procure me a box…

My son put them together for me (I love painting but despair at building kits, I can never get the poses right). Here they are all sprayed and about to head to the cabinet to meet their new colleagues.

I picked up this guy second hand at Vapnartak this year and couldn’t wait to get paint on him.

I used the turbo dork colour shift paint on his wings which is a new find for me.
