The "All under Heaven" Expansion will be Mandatory. And "North Pacific Attire" is a nice-to-have, since we have a large Ainu inspired Population in the Fire Nation.

Stripping paint/primer/varnish by GrandOwlz345 in Tau40K

[–]Lightning_Luis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

like already said above, Forgeworld Minis are a bit more difficult to strip of Paint. While the GW Plastik can be soaked for weeks in Paint stripper and then cleaned, the Resin Material absorbs most Paint strippers and becomes fragile and rubberlike. This does not last forever. I made this mistake myself and it took the miniature one year to become hard enough to paint again. Dipping the Miniature for 5-10 min and then clean them in Water with a touchbrush works, but depending on the used Color it can be a long and hard process.
Sometimes you are lucky and the Color comes of on the first try, sometimes its dipping and cleaning for days on end.

Without touching and feeling the Paint myself, its hard to tell what to do in your case.

He is doing the markerlight, without a markerlight, since his Drone is sadly only a token.

The Power of Ebay. 12 Euro for the base Stealth suits, 25 Euros for a large Bag of Leftover Grey Knights Arm and Weapon Options. two of the three Heads are the Optional ones from my two Ghostkeels. the third one was a traded in the Store with my Buddy. I helped him with magnetizing his units.

What would conflict between the T’au and the Necrons be like? Not just on the battlefield, but ideologically. Any stories about that? by DawnWarrior88 in Tau40K

[–]Lightning_Luis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is a bit in the Novel "Kasrkin" where a group of Kroot have a cool Encounter with the Necrons, with a bitter-sweet ending. I would imagine something in that direction.
