The Pounder Posted May 15, 2018 Author Share Posted May 15, 2018 Thanks Elmo! I’ve done my best, glad you approve! Cheers Mithrilforge, that was my idea to keep things as uniform as possible.

MithrilForge Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 You know, seeing your Kroot so well done makes me want to paint some up as well i seriously might have to tack some onto the list for the next vow...

Panzer Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Kroot are lots of fun to paint and a nice change of pace from the other T'au units. I can just recommend it. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345077-juds-ksymyen-sept-hunter-cadre/page/3/#findComment-5082696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted May 16, 2018 Author Share Posted May 16, 2018 Go for it Mithril! As sfPanzer said they’re a lot of fun to paint and really quick to do.

MithrilForge Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 with units like these you don't feel bad if they get wiped...unless you painted eyes on one of them/called it "johnny 5" or it has an AI that borders on being real... anyways great work jud we look forward to a family shot when it's all done with.. cheers, Mithril Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345077-juds-ksymyen-sept-hunter-cadre/page/3/#findComment-5087750 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithrilForge Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 He looks awesome...the only thing and it's kinda funny, is that he blends in too well with the base which is kinda what the scheme is supposed to be for right Your not helping me in not wanting to do some Kroot in my army ...so nice...i really do hope they get some kinda new stuff for em?... not much left on your first pledge Jud!! cheers, Mithril Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345077-juds-ksymyen-sept-hunter-cadre/page/3/#findComment-5090421 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted May 27, 2018 Author Share Posted May 27, 2018 Thanks Mithril! Kroot are great fun to work on. Also they make for a bit of variation within the army, I kinda like the idea of an alien empire (maybe I'll get some Vespid at some point!) I've finished Darkstrider! I'm going to replicate the paint scheme used on him when I do the Pathfinders.I think the armour coloured panel on the gun helps to balance out the green of the fatigues. Tau Empire Darkstrider Tau Empire Darkstrider Tau Empire Darkstrider Next on the painting table is the second squad of Kroot!

The Pounder Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 Finished my version of Longstrike!Rather than buying the model that sits in the turret, I've tried to make the Hammerheadlook a bit more hitech. To achieve this I've used the Command vehicle sprue from GW and aGun Drone with two antennae to look like an advanced sensor suite. Here's the pics: T'au Empire Longstrike T'au Empire Longstrike T'au Empire Longstrike T'au Empire Longstrike T'au Empire Longstrike Next up will be a squad of Pathfinders.

MithrilForge Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 great work Jud, i really love the yellow nose cone and the Longstrike conversion is very well done and looks just different enough to be noticeable but not bullet magnet material can't wait to see your pathfinders...Hey!...do they're undersuits in dark yellow to contrast your scheme Cheers, Mithril Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345077-juds-ksymyen-sept-hunter-cadre/page/3/#findComment-5110262 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Thanks Mithrilforge! It’s a simple thing but I think it does the job. I’m going to build the Pathfinders tonight. I don’t want to do colourful, as I want them to look a bit special ops. I will be giving them 3 Ionrifles, to give them a bit of punch!

The Pounder Posted June 30, 2018 Author Share Posted June 30, 2018 Finished the Pathfinders! Tau Empire Pathfinders Tau Empire Pathfinders Tau Empire Pathfinders Next up will be 2 Fireblades (1 will be converted from the Ethereal in the start collecting box) and another Hammerhead.

The Pounder Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 I've had a productive weekend (in between the football) and I've managed to finish my first Cadre Fireblade!Must say I think he's probably my favourite T'au model so far because I usually suck at faces!

MithrilForge Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Great work mate, your going great guns! Pathfinders look suitably stealthy.

The Pounder Posted July 3, 2018 Author Share Posted July 3, 2018 Cheers Mithril! I'm in the zone atm. I'm averaging a model everyday! Finished the conversion! The hardest bit was filing off the bare legs and trimming the armoured legs to fit.I don't think he's as good as the GW standard model but at least I got some use from the spare Ethereal! Tau Empire Fireblade Conversion Tau Empire Fireblade Conversion Next up will be my third Hammerhead Gunship!
