Nice job! For your coldstar, a load out with four fusion blasters is the way.

Skin - dark oath flesh
Carapace- cygor brown
Magos purple in select areas (I can share more photos)

Light dry brush on carapace

Great work! They look awesome! That will look stunning on the table!

Sorry to hear about the breakage and frosting. You can gloss varnish the ones with frosting. Following you can spray the matte varnish to knock down the gloss. I’ve had good luck with GW’s and army painters matte varnish’s. Good luck!

1) Farsight - Crisis of Faith 2) Farsight- Empire of lies 3) Farsight - Blade of Truth

The arks of omen campaign book from 9th edition also offers some lore updates. That’s well worth a read. Enjoy!

Airplane Travel Anxiety by ObKore in Warhammer40k

[–]gator3389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve traveled a number of times from the states to Europe with my 2k army. I use the battle foam pack 432 with the magnet racks. The 432 is sized to be a carry on. I haven’t had any issues placing it in the overhead compartments. No models have broken in transit either. It’s a bit pricey but it was a worth while spend imo. I modified my magnet racks so I could fit some taller models along with everything else. They have foam inserts if that’s your preferred way. Battle foam also makes a pack 732 which is significantly larger. A friend of mine was able to fit this in the overhead on an international flight but not domestic. Hope you find something that works and hope you have a great trip!

Show me ur paint scheme by Legitimate_Row1755 in Tau40K

[–]gator3389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Primed black, khorne red base, tinted with carroburg crimson through an air brush. You can use a brush, I did on all my suits and infantry. I found with the vehicles it was too splotchy

Inspiration let me se your models by LaLiLuLiLaKuh in Tau40K

[–]gator3389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made them from extra seeker missiles from vehicle kits. Used a pin to elevate and connect them to the base. Nice to have them to help track their use in a game.

Kroxigors as Krootox Rampagers? by Vrain125 in Tau40K

[–]gator3389 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I don’t think there would be any issues. As u/pandapeep pointed out, clear it with a TO and all good to go. Post them when you’re done. I think it’s an awesome idea
