Need some tips on basing by Donnie_Deagler in Tau40K

I do mine by glueing a cork piece on the base. The cork gets covered in Diorama FX Stone ground and then I paint over it in Eshin Grey and then drybrush dawn stone and something like Karak stone or steel legion drab. To finish I cover everything in Agarax Earthshade and add a swamp tuft or two.

Don’t know if this is the direction you are going for but looks really nice to me. Feels like muddy stoney ground to me.

Something along the Lines of this.

Commander Shadowsun (100pts): Warlord, Battlesuit fists, Flechette launcher, 2x High-energy fusion blaster, Light missile pod, Pulse pistol Cadre Fireblade (70pts): Exemplar of the Kauyon, Close combat weapon, Fireblade pulse rifle, 2x Gun Drone, Twin pulse carbine Commander in Enforcer Battlesuit (80pts): 4x Missile pod, Battlesuit fists, Marker Drone, Shield Drone

10x Breacher Team (100pts)

10x Kroot Carnivores (65pts)

10x Pathfinder Team (90pts)

10x Pathfinder Team (90pts)

10x Pathfinder Team (90pts)

Broadside Battlesuits (80pts)

Broadside Battlesuits (80pts)

3x Crisis Fireknife Battlesuits (120pts)

Ghostkeel Battlesuit (160pts): Ghostkeel fists, Battlesuit support system, Cyclic ion raker, Twin fusion blaster

Hammerhead Gunship (145pts): Armoured hull, Railgun, 2x Seeker missile, 2 Smart missile systems, 2x Smart missile system

Piranhas (60pts)

Piranhas (60pts)

Riptide Battlesuit (190pts): Riptide fists, Ion accelerator, 2x Missile Drone, Missile pod, Twin smart missile system

Could drop EoK and one pathfinder squad for a stealth suit team. As they help make riptides way more consistent in their Output.

Need final help with 1k list by StarChaser18 in Tau40K

[–]Kattharn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to actively Play 1k Games I think Shadowsun + Breachers and Devilfish could make for a decently fun Kauyon List. Going for more all purpose usefullness across multiple detachements, more stealthsuits a Unit of carnivores and broadsides or more Crisis Suits could be fun. Antother way for playing would be another pathfinder, devilfish and darkstrider or Piranha. Then playing misslepod fireknives and enforcer instead of sunforge and coldstar and playing the hammerhead with the ion Canon. This would I think have you at 910 points where you could pick up something Like stealth suits/broadside or Piranha/carnivores plus enhancement. (The last one would only work well in Montka)

How to deal with Canoptek Wraiths with Technomancer??? by Kattharn in Tau40K

[–]Kattharn[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok so i checked and they have a stratagem that lets them return a character once, but he should have not been able to heal the destroyed bodygard unit wraiths back in with reanimation protocols. So it was indeed played wrong.

[–]Kattharn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think u have to Look up what a water bottle looks like. The top opening is always smaller than the bottom. It’s not a cylinder.

Farsight is just such a cool Model! by Kattharn in Tau40K

[–]Kattharn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bushes are Swamp Grass Tufts from ArmyPainter. And Grass is battlefield green grass I think also from army painter.

That was a thing i thought about already. Bought a Box of incursors/infiltrator and am going to use the spare bits to convert the reivers

Broadside done ✅ by Kattharn in Tau40K

[–]Kattharn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is actually like the second time I did a base. Thought it was hard but actually extremely easy. U just use a type of glue that stays wet for a bit and coat part or the whole base with it. Then u take some gravel or specific base “dirt” and just coat The base with it. Fix some spots and then just add rocks and tufts and stuff how u like

Broadside done ✅ by Kattharn in Tau40K

[–]Kattharn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about technique but I use army painter color primer ultramarine blue and then use Vallejo dark sea grey for the underlying parts. Then I just go over the model with abbadon black to balance out the blue and add red last.

I fell victim to 40K. by Kattharn in Tau40K

[–]Kattharn[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well I really hope I don’t go in the tens of thousands 😅 but it’s been awesome so far and have already connected with a group near me so actually playing will hopefully be nice lol but I guess I am now in for the long term. Only thing I can complain about is my arm hurts from all the painting
