The Tau are the only army I'm currently collecting that I'm actually ok with an armour finish that doesn't have a wash. The model I'm using is a Shas'ui (equivalent of a Sergeant, for anyone not fluent in Tau), so his shoulder guard is getting a section of the sept colour, as well as the squad markings. I don't know about your experiences with this paint colour, but for me, this is almost eligible for Foundation Paint status in how well it goes down. I don't know, there's something about the two-tone look here that makes him look more alive. See what I mean? I tried this with a base of grey or even white instead of the cream, and it looked. You end up with a cool effect that I thought looked very real and organic.
I fiddled around with a few different schemes to get a good blue flesh, and the one I ended up settling on had this cream color as a base. The cloth will end up darker than the armour, and we're going to achieve it with a two step process.
Regardless, I ended up liking my scheme better, and have stuck with it.
Well, what you see above is Space Wolves Gray and Hawk Turquoise, and it's NOT the scheme pictured in the book. Fast forward to painting my first fire warrior, and lo - the Codex lied to me! They showed me a cool off-white armor with teal sept markings, and told me that the color scheme was Space Wolves Grey and Hawk Turquoise. I liked the fluff, I liked the colors, all was well with the world. A while back I had decided, due to my hatred of orange as a main color, to go with the Bork'an Sept described in the Codex. "There are better places to take a nap than on the ground, you know.On the workbench today are some Tau Fire Warriors I've been meaning to get done for a long time.
