I began this Tau army a while ago. One of my first (or maybe my first) W40K miniatures I painted. I had some experience with Warhammer Fantasy so my painting skills I would say aren't half-bad, but still in need of improvement.
They look bland and are supposed to be bland. I themed them with blue for their main color and light blue for their secondaries. However, I had gotten lazy halfway and most of them still haven't had their light blue highlights painted on. Still though, worth sharing.
- Spoiler:
As you can see, two out of three of the Steal Suits do not have the light blue highlights as seen on the third blue suit. I have no idea why I decided to paint one red.
- Spoiler:
Piranha from side and top-down view. The guy at the back seat looks like he's having a good time.
- Spoiler:
Sniper Team. They form a 4-man team altogether. Once again, no highlights.
- Spoiler:
17 Tau Fire Warriors. Bathe in it's eternal glory of range firepower!

He's using his iPhone.
- Spoiler:
The only Fire Warrior with the highlights. I'm still undecided if I should add the light blue onto all of them now.
- Spoiler:
And yeah...Tomb Kings.
I barely play with my Tau since it's too small (Under 500 points I believe). But they do make a nice colorful addition. I have an unopened Tau battleforce
somewhere. If I'm up to it I may feel like assembling and painting them all again.
