A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil. Don’t insult other community members in posts or comments, and don’t make posts designed to insult other community members or parts of the fandom with different opinions.

  2. Posts must be on-topic.

  3. No real life politics. That means no political advocacy, and no real life political discussions vaguely dressed up as on-topic posts. If you want to discuss real life politics, you are free to start your own community.

  4. No memes/low-effort spam/Youtube poops style posts. grimdank is a place for those.

  5. Posts must be coherent.

  6. If a post is otherwise allowed but has realistic gore or nudity, please mark it NSFW.

Continuing my tradition of working on bottom tier teams πŸ˜‚ I’m not really into Tau but these models have really grown on me. Super fun to paint.

The shading on the body plates looks really nice.

My gut reaction was "ok, who gave the 'Nids railguns?"

Awesome paint job, and especially love the base! You really got the "days after fresh snow" feeling down!

Thank you!! I did end up putting some quick contrast paint on the scope lens too πŸ˜‚

Honestly didn't even notice, my eyes were caught up with the base and the dithering on the carapace, it really looks organic!

Looks really good! I like the speckling :)
