Xeno Community Event

[elmo]

It is as we join with others, in a way that only the Tau can, in shared engagement to the Greater Good,

that we find ourselves able to fully realize our true potential.

And that is the final source of our hopes and intentions.
Aun'el T'au Tam'ya, Ethereal caste

 

 

I Elmo pledge the forces of the mighty T'au Empire to this endeavour.

 

The following units will be completed by the 3rd of Jan.

 

1 x Sunshark

1 x Devilfish/Skyray/Hammerhead

1 x Riptide

1 x Barracuda

 

Photos here

 

More may follow

 

In the end, all will work towards The Greater Good or shall be made to see the error of their choices...

If your wondering about the bases, I'm rebasing my collection next year so no reason to mess with these now.

The spiced up version(s) requires the end of the event first

[Sith’ari]

It's great to see so many people jumping on board! Looking forward to painting with you all (is it October yet?! :D)

[Parweke]

Dont you mean Orktober, boss? :)

Orktober

 

Xenovember

[Trokair]

Quick shot of the Necrons, some of them need a second round of soaking and stripping so I’ll do over the next few weeks. As I was getting them out I noticed that two of the warriors had broken parts, will see what I can find elsewhere in my old stuff or see what ebay can provide.

Ahahaha! Touché! :lol:

[Grotsmasha]

A question before I commit. I have what is colloquially known as Hobby ADD, so I was hoping to present 9 individual units (3 each from 3 factions) and vow to complete a minimum of three, but potentially all nine. My starting photo would be 1 pic of all nine units (mostly HQs). If Uprising finds this compromise agreeable, I'll get that pic up and hit the Brushes :tu:

 

Cheers,

Jono

I, Aqui, vow to paint, Lady Malys (counts as Archon), Lelith Hesperax and a Succubi, by 3rd January 2018. Edited September 5, 2017 by Aqui

[Focslain]

Been in a painting mood during the campaign and might as well get on something to extend it. Doing this in three months shouldn't be too hard.

 

I Focslain  vow to paint the following units by January 3rd:

 

1 Sturmsurge
1 Gunrig
1 farseer/warlock (not sure which it will be)
1 unit of 3 Cloudrider (eldar biker pirates)
1 Nightspinner

 

Edit: Here's the starting pic

I'd love to participate but I don't have a single xenos model without paint on it :-(

[Dreagher]

Because the carnival of pain should never stop.

[robofish7591]

Hmm, I do have some nids that have been sitting primed for a while... Seems like a good excuse to get some paint on them!  I'll need to figure out what I have and what I want to paint before I make my vow, but you can definitely count me in.

[elmo]

Here is the start photo for my vow :)

[Studio Silvernale]

Are we starting already?

[Uprising]

Are we starting already?

You can build, you can base, but no paint till October.
