Showcase: Tau R’varna XV107 Battlesuit
Another model that I picked up at London Comic Con last weekend, the Tau R’varna XV107 Battlesuit. The model was fairly straight forward to put together and paint. He currently should be going to a guy who I’m painting a whole bunch of other FW…
Chat: How do you like your Riptides?
Last night I started putting together a Tau Riptide Battle Suit for an upcoming review of the kit and I’m a bit stumped for how to equip the fellow. So I thought I’d ask you good people for your opinions on the subject. What is…
Showcase: Tau XV25 Stealth Team
Okay this is a real quick one, so I will keep it short. I have had a incredibly busy week starting up a commission on a huge Ogre army. When I say huge its huge. So apologies if I have not been able to answer…
Showcase: Tau XV88 Broadside Number 2
This is probably going to be one of the last of the new Tau models that I will show for a while. I am having to quickly move on to the Ogre Kingdom models that I am painting as quite a large commission. But I…
Showcase: XV104 Riptide Battlesuit Number 2

Showcase: Tau XV88 Broadside
Continuing along with the recent Tau releases. I bring you the Broadside that I painted a few weeks ago. I think the model is a big improvement to the older version. The model is certainly bigger and as before with the other Tau models I…
Showcase: Tau Sun Shark Bomber
What happened to the Tyrannids on FW website? A bunch of them have vanished? Anyway the new Sun Shark Bomber reminds me of U.S drones. That’s all I can say. I like the design. It looks pretty stealthy. And I guess that’s what it does….
Showcase: Tau Riptide XV104 Battlesuit
Excuse the little three eyed skeleton in the far right bottom corner. It was my wife’s idea that I should have a logo. Since moving house I nearly broke my ankle decorating and have been limping around like a zombie high on Tramadol and…
Showcase: Sexy Commander Shadowsun
Back in February 2008, my friend Sierra showed me the above illustration (sadly I can’t credit the artist, I don’t know who created the artwork) and said it would make a better Shadowsun model then the GW sculpt, I agreed and decided to undertake one…
Chat: Funny Tau Conversions
Back in 2006, I was painting a Tau army. I thought the army was a bit cartoony and anime like and led itself well to a bit of humour. So I made some conversions to break up the tedious work of painting an army. More…
