In the mail Looking forward to painting after practicing on my devilfish

I should really post some pics of mine. After reading your blog I've painted a squad of fire warriors, and almost finished a sky ray.

Nice! I don't play the tabletop games, but I played the RTS's a lot, looks cool!
|
You are my hero! soon as I get 150$ I'mma buying my Tau Battleforce (WH40K is expansive here.) And I'll paint it! and it'll be cool!

Maybe not as important with Tau as with my Nids, but I've discovered it's more efficient to do in box size batches. Assemble a box, prime a box, then run through each color of paint in order.

I used to do that, but i would paint my squad leaders on their own with a bit more detail to make them stand out.

Oh, yeah. I did anything bigger than elites individually. Like I said, Nids are different, you almost have to assembly line elite and below unless you have unlimited leisure time. Try individually painting even a smallish list like stealers, back when that was viable (better known as broken), and you'd go batshit.
I ran a mostly stealer list for a while, with a Fex, HT, Lictors, and that one big badass unique stealer dude, with some cannon fodder and rippers. It was ridiculous what I did to my buddie's Tau. Lictors and Stealers would ruin their day with rending.

I never got into fantasy. Stuck with 40k. Haven't played in a while, although if I found a decent place near here, and a good chunk of cash fell into my lap to improve my list, I probably would.

Looking good, used to have a decent 40k Blood Angel army, but then it got really expensive so I stopped collecting.
