Fifty shades of pike grey- scifi models in 28mm

[Freddy]

They look great! Lovely unhealthy-looking skin tones.
I've not seen the models before. They're really characterful. I do love the idea of an advanced biomechanical construct using a bucket and rag to wipe down vehicles though 

Thanks! It is worth to check out this manufacturer, they have some really cool stuff.
The flesh is: Cadian Fleshtone base, Druchii Violet wash and a light, pale blue highlight where the secret is to stop just before the surface is getting explicitly blue.

This one is for 40k parsecs, 3d print of someone, I bought it on the monthly bitz market of the local club. Originally had a sniper rifle, but that broke, and these 3d sculpts are hell to drill, I rather sculpted a new arm, this time with a plasma pistol.

I call her Lolo after the famous Lolo Ferrari, yeah, I also grew up on Baywatch, but man, those are a little bit on the grotesque side. +1 Armour from the front.

Some more Tau.

Orlock Outrider Quads, because riding a bike is fun, shooting things with heavy bolters is also fun, so why not combine the two.

[Scarper]

Those quads are great! Some top notch weathering. I always get intimidated by bigger models, but you've really nailed that

Thanks! Weathering this one is easy, just some washes and drybrushes. A model with big surfaces is a lot trickier, see my good old Baneblade

Excellent models again, and your Lolo Ferrari made me chuckle too

Later I discovered there is an entire range of these, would make hell of a warband.

Great stuff. Love the quad bikes

Thanks!

A couple more Tau, now the XV25s.




The entire team- I would not call them an army

[Scarper]

They look fantastic, especially as a group! Your oil technique for outlining looks really good. Do you have any further T'au plans, or do you think the group is finished?

Thank you!
Plans depend on the time frame discussed For now they are OK, a characteristic opponent force in small skirmishes, I might add some impulse buy/impulse sculpt characters.

On medium term
-I have some half painted Kroots, I will finish them sometimes.
-I will add some human traitors. No need to invent warm water here, samurai-themed scifi figures will make nice Tau-aligned humans with the proper paintjob. Far East is a popular topic in scifi miniature making too and they are hard to squeeze into the “medieval Europe gone mad” design of the Imperium anyways. I already have some fitting Urban Mammoth figures.

On long term
-I would like to make Tau an umbrella faction for random weird alien species who do not form a faction on their own and not aligned to an existing one
-Maybe some more regular Tau, I can get a bargain offer of figures any time (These above also came from one of those)

[LouieN]

Those are nice and sharp.  Well done
