Well, remember how I said this year would be about finishing off a few marine projects then getting stuck into other imperial/xenos things before turning to chaos about halfway through the year? It's kind of happening but as usual a bit more haphazard and slower than anticipated. The marine projects are all but at an end now and so I'm free to crack on with other things. These have been to build a few Imperial guard, get all my scenery assembled and base-coated and to get the Tau complete. I'm using the codex release schedule as a rough guide so expect a few necron characters and scarabs to get done over the next few weeks with dark eldar rebasing after that. For now though, here's what's been going on with the Tau.
This army was started about a year after I got back into 40k (so around 10 years ago) as my first stint with 40k ended in 2nd edition before the Tau were dreamed up. I liked the concept and aesthetics of them and so bought a few of the army boxes. I've added to them gradually over the years - generally speaking by adding one of every release (plus the awesome Supremacy suit). I've a few models that I wish to one day add - namely vespids and shadowsun, but other than that they're done. One dilemma I have with them is that I can't decide between ochre and desert yellow as a colour scheme. Either way I won't give them any more colour until I have an airbrush setup, but they're ready for the tabletop now. Cheers.
