    Opinions Please (Tau)

    Ok so I'm thinking of started a new army for 6th ed, I currently play DE but have reached about 3k in points and basically want a new challange.

    Ive messed about with Necrons but it puts me off them being flavour of the month at the moment.

    Anyway been messing about with Tau schemes, I don't really want the squeaky clean Tau that is generally seen, so I have gone for more a weatherd deserty look. I just wanted opinions if of if it works or any constructive comments?

    Heres the pics.





    Please bear in mind that these are just test minis

    Cheers

    Looks good like an experienced fielded army.
    Still, you could have an occassionaly squeaky clean item, replacement equipment/personnel.
    To master any skill you must accept doing it poorly at first.

    I love weathered armys, with dust and chipped armours. I think your Taus look good, but you should look for a little more contrast between armor and dirt on it.

    Not bad, but I agree there could be a bit more contrast. The armour on the leg of the second guy starts to blend into the cloth, the skin on the top guy is very dark, and it's a tad difficult to tell what's shade or weathering. I think a few more edge highlights could make things pop a wee bit more, without spoiling your effect.
