Like I said, no pics. but at least I got a tau fire warrior squad, a kroot squad and a well-painted jungle-camo stealth squad. Looks pretty good. The kroot that I got weren't all painted, so when I get back from the air show tomorrow, I will finally be able to get around to finishing all unpainted kroot and finish off my stealth squad. When my friend comes round on Monday, I will be able to finish spraying my broadside which it's arm snapped off (I put the crisis arms on and the rail guns on them) I had to take the other one off, take the two normal arms off it's backpack and put them where they are meant to go, leaving two big Grey unsprayed circles on it. Then I had to take the rail guns off the arms and glue them onto the backpack, where they normally go. Since I took them off the army, this left two MORE unsprayed Silver patches on the rail guns. Frustrating, eh? See ya later. Bye.

Tanks and Drones and Pathfinders, Oh My!
I've decided to start updating my blog less frequently now, but I will still be updating it every couple of days. I went out to town yesterday with my friends and I managed to get quite a lot of Tau.I swapped/sold one of my friends a land raider, some space marines, a whirlwind and a razorback for a hammerhead, 4 gun drones (because they mean the world to me), a crisis suit, which I re-sprayed and painted with my new and successful colour scheme and a tenner. With the tenner I got myself a pack of normal pathfinders for £8, which I sprayed and painted really well. I'll try to get some pictures, but I doubt I will get any because I am too lazy. Yay summer holidays started on Friday. Couldn't manage to get pictures of my friends eldar and space marines on Saturday, as he didn't bring them over, but I managed to make him believe in the greater good! He got himself a fire warrior squad and a crisis battlesuit. He LOVES Tau now. Kinda like me. See ya later.
Over and out.

New blog = No pics
Since I have just set up this blog, there isn't any pictures today, and I don't think there will be tomorrow either. I've finished most of my fire warriors, my friend is just painting the bleach bone main colour on their armour and I will get them back on Monday. Hopefully. I have been collecting tau for about 2-3 1/2 months now and I only have my devilfish, one fire warrior squad, a lone ethereal and my kroot. On the Saturday coming, I will be getting my first stealth squad and broadside, along with terracotta (or dark flesh as it is now known) and kommando khaki for my new tau paint scheme.

This is hopefully what my tau will look like when finished. When I went with my current scheme, it didn't take long to realise that it was a bad move as it gets repetitive and is in fact quite boring and bland actually. The scheme consists of bleached bone with skull white camo patches for the armour, hawk turquoise for the heads of the tau without helmets, shining gold eyes and centre section of shoulder cover. Sounds good? it's very bland and un-imaginative. I'm good at painting kroot though, so I'm leaving their colour scheme for pictures. I'll post again tomorrow round about 4:00 pm GMT when I decide to stop painting kroot. See you then!
