I have green paint. I have seemingly unlimited numbers of tau fire warriors, so how about another tau-test! This time I used reaper master series paints, and sepia wash. I am going to have to extract my real camera from the car so I can take real photos again, but I think these probably do the mini justice. After three test minis in one night I am starting to notice a trend. Hard lining does not look good on tau. I think the minis with simple base coats and heavy washes look the best. These test minis all look over worked to me. Should I battle damage this one as well? Which color scheme do you like the most?
The green or red definately, blue looks too much like eldar(in my opinion)
ReplyDeleteLove it, that combo really pops. Would love to see more in these colours. Green/Orange definitely.
ReplyDeleteWhile the finish of the model is nice the colours in my opinion don't realy go well together, especially the helmet.
ReplyDeleteThis one is my favorite so far of your tau test minis.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the helmet. It was supposed to be a powder blue, but I washed it with sepia and got this color instead. I think a soft blue would have worked better...sounds like another test mini is on the way!
