Not sure if this will help, or if you might have seen it before.

Nice work by the way.

Hard to see the detail here- the shot is dark and seems a bit out of focus. I think I'm seeing some pinks and blues there along with the white. Are you going for a mother of pearl type look to the armor?

Very cool to see you doing Tau dude!!!

@FourEyedMonster- Ya I have read the post. It is good if you are painting many models at the same time but for individual models I prefer starting from C.Black and slowly work yourself up with grey and then S.White.

@Jeff- You are right, it is a bad quality photo. I have updated the photo...hopefully it looks clearer that the first one.
The colours on the armour is due to radiation...I suppose that was a bad idea though.

Any more progress on yr tau doc?
I'm assuming this isn't a one off project :)
And who doesn't love the tau skimmer design.
U gotta have those!!!

Actually I bought a second hand tau army which I stripped and repainted Just collecting the Commanders now.
I have Shas 'O R'myr and Commander Shas 'O R'alai from the Forgeworld. And now Commander Shadowsun.
WIP on the two Forgeworld models are ongoing.
