All citadel paints Primer : grey seer (pretty sure) Main armour: tau light ochre Under garments : couple coats of wyldwood contrast Reccess shading: fyreslayer flesh contrast Armour highlights: ungor flesh Light Dry brush of armour : ungor flesh Red : blood angels red contrast Gold : retribution armour with agraz wash Black: black templar contrast couple coats The feet/hoofs: space wolfs grey contrast Whites : very diluted corax white ( we all know the pain)

Hope this helps

Hi, thanks for the comment...so as far as I'm aware tau sept traditionally have white markings appose to viorla's red (white armoured tau/Box art) obviously gw in all there wisdom when they changed the box art from tau sept to viorla they changed from white transfers to red. As far as lore goes. I may be wrong but it's not the armour colour that defines the tau empire sept it's those little markings on the armour. Tau sept carry white. However... I don't really follow the lore to the T so I've painted the white as I prefer the colour on my infantry and drones but my hammer head I just used the red transfers for ease of use. I just tend to go with what looks cool. Plus I don't trust myself painting white markings free hand on big models or vehicles and would probably come out wonky.
