A tau that brings the greater good. Whether you like it or not...

I posted some WIPs, but ive got my first 1k of Tau all done and painted up! This was a really fun project, I cant wait to get back to more!

The wave of Kroot releases seems to have broken r/Tau40k. It was like getting a feast after 20 years of famine. It just broke them. That's my only explanation for this chaos.

Also, it's spreading:

BONUS CROSSOVER MEME:

Figured it’s time to actually post something after years of just liking and reblogging lmao

Anyways here’s my Farsight enclave T‘au XV-88 Broadside! (Compliments, Criticism and Pointers welcome)

Shoulder mounts are magnetized so I can switch weaponry at will

The Railgun is modded since it was officially only noted as a handheld weapon (which is a heresy of its own imo)

Anyway I’m very happy with how it turned out. I wanna paint my Coldstar commander soon. Excited to see how she will turn out!

Once again not dead just forgot to open tumblr for Yes time. Fell off the hobby bandwagon for a little bit but I’m back because I was able to secure... *drumroll*

BIG FARSIGHT

He’s been very fun to paint thus far, and his new suit has some interesting implications that GW probably won’t follow up on, but hey.

Also, gonna probably be modeling The Eight soon because they were in the warcomm post and my crackpot theory is that they’re going to be field able as a detachment in 10th. We’ll see!

Our second Crusade campaing

[zombiescantfly]

Even more Kroot! This is a carnivore squad that was part of that secondhand lot I've been chipping my way through. They were in pretty rough shape, but I did what I could and think they came out alright. Also included is a leftover heavy weapon from the Kill Team squad to stand in for the carnivores' new tanglebomb launcher they got this edition.

Some Tau!

Always liked these little dudes ever since I saw ‘em at the local game store back back in two-thousand-whatever. So a couple years back I picked myself up a Start Collecting box and have been painting and expanding a little bit til we’re finally at this point. Honestly? The SC box throws too many drones at you, it was very overwhelming to paint so many all at once, which is one of the main reasons this was a multi-year project. But now I’m finally all caught up, and I even magnetized all the drone options, crisis suit weapons, and the pathfinder rail/ion rifle arms.

And I’ve got a ghostkeel primed up just waiting for its turn.

Which T'au authors from Black Library would you recommend?

I only really know about Phil Kelley and everyone only mentiona him as a bad writer (even tho I am personally mostly enjoying my current reading of Farsight: Crisis of Faith)...

Thank you for asking! I’m only dipping my own toes into the Black Library myself, but I do have a few recommendations regardless

Despite aspects of Phil Kelley’s writing, I did actually really enjoy the Shadowsun book. You can see my post about it here: https://www.tumblr.com/taudad/745116246289334272/so-im-reading-shadowsun-by-phil-kelly-right-now

This other recommendation is pretty old, but it stuck with me from way back when. The second book of the Last Chancers series (Kill Team, I think was its name) by Gav Thorpe is from the perspective of a Guard Penal legion posing as Gue’vesas on a mission to infiltrate and assassinate a T’au commander and it was a real fun read, I’d highly recommend that one

For other books here’s a list I intend to work through myself from the T’au Reddit page: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tau40K/comments/12hq1mg/tau_reading_list/?rdt=33501

If you end up reading any of these please come back with your thoughts! I’m always looking to read more T’au myself

[kingdoppopopolis]

Yo. Back, sorta. I mainly paint Warhammer stuff now. Here are some T’au I finished up recently. 

[soraka-in-warhammer40k]

I can only assume the Ethereals are just confused as the rest of us.

[hooliganpaints]

Back to business at usual with this crusty old shaper that’s nearly as old as me

Prolly gonna fiddle with the gun more but overall he’s Fine for a 25 point model

Im not Great on the Lore but I have been rotating the concept of someone (a T'au patrol maybe?) rescuing the survivors of a disastrous Adeptus Mechanicus campaign and them working to deprogram the surviving Tech Priest and their Skitarius from the whole. Imperium of Man death cult thing.

I want to see an outsider getting up close with what the AdMech do to themselves and each other in the name of the Machine God and the Emperor and sitting there with the realization that "ohhh.... oh you guys are DEEPLY fucked up. Are you ok? Do you need... therapy, maybe?"
