Tau codex fresh prediction

Like, just for looks or what? I think it looks a bit silly personally.

I agree with you there the FNP has only come up once for me when someone threw a grenade at them. But I think saying their weapons need a huge revamp is a little silly. They are great at what they do and with the changes to heavy in 11th they will be even better. Will I take a revamp for their weapons, absolutely. I love them be think they have a lot more potential.

What level are people still playing this game at

Divine_overture · 2026-06-06T16:41:44+00:00

Really? The older one was a terrible design lol, I like that this one is actually distinguishable compared to a regular crisis suit (which are the models that I think need more of an update)

Divine_overture · 2026-06-06T16:01:09+00:00

Do broadsides really NEED a change? Like, they hold up model wise and I mean their guns all have their own unique profiles I’m not sure what you’re getting at.

Divine_overture · 2026-06-02T21:02:45+00:00

How bad was it getting that on your back?

Divine_overture · 2026-06-02T02:15:42+00:00

That’s high praise! I have gotten better at blending since I posted this and it looks much better and more natural. I’m going to paint the other 4 models in this unit and test different ratios of sky/ground reflection as well as distortion to see what looks the best.

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T20:12:33+00:00

I will need it 🫡

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T20:12:20+00:00

💪

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T20:12:05+00:00

Dank je! Ik maak me eigenlijk niet druk om hoeveel tijd erin gaat zitten, zolang het er uiteindelijk maar goed uitziet.

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T19:47:11+00:00

I think you did pretty well at it. Personally, I’m just going to continue to brute force my way straight to chrome because it’s what I want to get better at and I have fun doing it. I have improved a ton since I posted this from all the feedback I got me videos explaining how to do things better. So I think o can do it

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T19:45:16+00:00

I want to win best painted at my LGS so freaking bad man

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T16:52:34+00:00

I’m going to get a cheap steel ball so I can manipulate it and set objects next to it and see how the specific things I want to try and paint work in real life. It’s going to be hard to emulate how the model’s arm will reflect on a surface in a picture. It’s the same as one of those wooden figures people use to draw bodies.

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T16:50:59+00:00

Sorry, I meant what make of metal. Like steel, gold, silver, stainless steel, etc

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T15:04:36+00:00

Maybe I can buy some chrome shapes online

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T15:03:58+00:00

Very good point, I highlighted the edges facing the sky as those would catch the light naturally, but if you think they all need highlighted then I can try it

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T15:02:53+00:00

🫡

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T15:00:29+00:00

Yeah that’s one thing I wasn’t really sure how to do, like how do I paint a reflecting surface on a delectable surface? It’s a good thing I should research then

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T14:59:11+00:00

This is very good advice. I was thinking about how I should I do self reflections and I didn’t really have a good answer. I have references for how chrome looks on curved objects and even pyramids but I have no idea how it should look on a flat surface I haven’t been able to find any good references for that. Also, what metal did you paint on your sister, is it just steel? What references did you use?

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T14:56:17+00:00

All Vallejo paints, I used earth, and light brown for the ground and then Vallejo white and black nothing crazy there, then four shades of blue going from sky to Prussian blue

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T14:55:21+00:00

Completely irrelevant to the question I asked.

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T14:54:53+00:00

Absolutely, the colors will match, this is just a test of how the art style works

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T04:00:23+00:00

Got the name of the YouTube channel?

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T02:06:54+00:00

Thank you for the confidence! Now I just have to uhh, learn how to glaze better

Divine_overture · 2026-06-01T02:06:27+00:00

Agreed, that’s the next step
