So for all the boardgamers out there, I thought I would create a thread in which we can put our miniatures on display. Yes, I do like them a lot. ;D
This is my Tau force so far. I don't think I'll be expanding it, since GW is just out for my money, and yours too. I began collecting them three years ago, I started with the Hammerhead and built up from there.
One of my two Broadsides. They're my favourite unit (because really, what's not to love about two railguns strapped to your back and rocket pods for hands?)
This is my Hammerhead, the one that started it all. I've learned a lot since then, namely to always put down a basecoat before anything else. Also, you're probably not going to be playing with as toys so much as wicked-looking unit representations, so the thrusters and turret don't need to swivel.
My Stealthsuit team, I pretty much went over them with a black basecoat and then filled in the appropriate spots with Scab Red. It's cheap, I know.
NB: Apologies for the picture quality in these, it's not always easy to get the right shot and they were really only for fun.
Here we have some more artistry going on in capturing one of three Sniper Drones. In case anyone can't tell yet, I have a thing for big guns.
My Tau group is well-loved.
My first Reaper mini ever! Krass Omenthrall, Evil Warrior painted a few months ago and acting as Isain Ambicarren Dreadstrife, the Fighter-Barbarian in the Frozen Sands campaign. While that object he's holding looks like a sword, it's actually a maul.
Here he is from the back.
So go nuts you guys! Post your minis so that we lavish you in praise and accolades!
