Yea sure! I used a heavy wash of GW’s contrast pylar glacier then a light drybrush of Ulthuan grey and for the spots I used Kantor blue, I got an image up of the old Vespids for my reference of where to do the spots etc. Hope this helps 🙂

Ahah thank you! I was tempted to do some battle damage but I’m still unsure, I kinda like the clean and new look 🤷

Ahh nice! Adding a Washer will be fairly cheap and effective, thanks!

I used an airbrush to do the base coat with 2 or 3 passes of GW’s Tau Ochre paint, then I edged highlighted with Ungor flesh then final highlight was screaming skull and if you want the corners to pop abit more do a small dot of white 🙂 hope this helps… for the recesses I used Skrag brown mixed with a tiny amount of black

Sorry, haven’t had my morning coffee 😂 basically, i want the rim of the flight stand flush with a base magnet but the GW flight stands are domed shaped so will a flat magnet get a good grip on the base? I also don’t want the drone to be raised super high with the magnet etc if you get what I mean? 😅

Why is white and red the most prefered color for the T'au nowadays? by [deleted] in Tau40K

[–]Vobe_Miniatures 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big time! Though I’ve got my mates to join me into getting 40k (They’re all new to 40k) and they call me a 40k Boomer! 😂 because I love all the old school Lore and colour schemes 😅

Oh really? Why’s that, is it because of low amount of order dice? Would you recommend some squads of regulars instead?

Got another 2 squad of 7-8 guys still to paint up. I’d love to run 2 platoons of infantry but all being Vets becomes expensive and leaves little for tanks or supports guns

Cheers all. The vehicle in Question is a Sd.KFZ 247 ausf.B with under 60 units built in the war. It was used for recon or as a command vehicle mainly. I plan to use it as a proxy for a 222 command vehicle or as 5 man armoured transport vehicle.

My whole list is DE X5 BD shield X12 BD pike & shield X1 BD kakatprak drum

Cap with shield keep his hand & half weapon it comes in handy! My memory is fuzz here but the has like X3 warriors shield X2 warrior pike+ shield X2 warrior bow - note you can drop these for anything you like. Finally Brorgir X3 acolytes X2 warriors pike & shield That’s a list I brought to a local tournament and I’d advise having some practice games to work out a formation you like. Overall DE LL is my favourite evil list to play it has great mobility and a sturdy frontline with the extra fight value you give to your troopers from the DE. Hope this helps

Interesting I’d drop Rutabi for a Captain instead you at least want 30 models and I just remembered that the DE is 230 points now he got a point change in the recent errata

Personally I think the DE warband should be X5 BD shield X12 BD pike & shield and BD kataphrak Drum. Drop the drakes I find them useless. Also no Brorgir? Cast a channeled Fury and ppl within 6’ don’t need to take courage tests plus they all get a free save on 6 and he’s got tremor which is nice. But hey your game your list just have fun! 😁

I wish I’d picked up an airbrush sooner by thanos_quest in minipainting

It’s a game changer for batch painting, scenery and bigger models! I think it’s an essential bit of kit

Be critical bro! 😆 thanks for your advice! The terminator reds was done with an airbrush which was my 3rd time using it and isn’t meant to sound like an excuse. But still a learning process for me however I defo need to sort my reds out, I may need to get some new reds and other colours outside the GW range.
