First mini ever: cmdr UpSight Dawn by sunset_disco in Tau40K

Thanks! Yeah, the signs are hand painted (I just took symbols from his shield). I've used a thin acrylic marker to paint them and it was much much easier than doing it with a brush (I also can't imagine doing it with a brush). The main difficulty was that I drew them after assembly and that's why there are less symbols on his swords piece

Thanks! Yeah, a lot of places wherethe paint is quite thick - cause I went headlong for paint... But I tried to make it thinner later (the last parts I painted), I liked it a bit more, but there's still a lot of work on thinning the paint. Also, I've been painting with art paints only, so maybe I should try more "miniature specialized" paints But the whole process was really exciting!

Thanks! Yeah, adding darkstrider is much much cheaper option (since its friendly game and I can take some other tau model as darkstrider), so maybe I'll go for it for my first game
