[QUOTE=acds;32571120]Tau are alien space pussies. If the Imperium behaved like the Tau they'd be wiped off the map in a matter of months (and Tau would already have been wiped out, wasn't it that GW makes money off their miniatures). [editline]1st October 2011[/editline] They even have a vagina forehead.[/QUOTE] Acds would you like to join The Greater Good and be friends with me?
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;32570877]Just basecoated my first model in... seven years. Gonna try out a color scheme on it. [img]http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Images/Product/DefaultFW/xlarge/brasss.jpg[/img] This is the coolest Forgeworld Chaos model[/QUOTE] A scorpion with a gun for a face? Fuck yeah.

Must be a bitch to paint, at least like it's in the picture
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;32571219]Acds would you like to join The Greater Good and be friends with me?[/QUOTE] Sure. If the Greater Good is service to the Emperor and Mankind. [QUOTE=Zezibesh;32571336]Must be a bitch to paint, at least like it's in the picture[/QUOTE] Yeah giving the plates that warp-y look has to be a pain in the ass.
[QUOTE=acds;32571408]Sure. If the Greater Good is service to the Emperor and Mankind. [/QUOTE] You can still worship the Emperor of Mankind if you want in the Tau Empire. It just can't conflict with the Greater Good philosophy.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;32571336]Must be a bitch to paint, at least like it's in the picture[/QUOTE] Airbrush [QUOTE=Dejarie;32571141]I'm a pretty patient painter, and with my schemes the white is the most prominent, so I'll be spending a lot of time on it. Also, say I wanted to do writing on, let's say a p[iece of parchment, what tool would be best, I've got a felt tipped pen, a couple of fine detail brushes, and one special brush I've pulled most bristles out of to create an extremely fine tip.[/QUOTE] Microtip Pen. Though if i had a lot of white painting to do, I'd probably use Army Painter White Spray (if i were doing say a White Scars army etc)

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;32571616]Airbrush Microtip Pen. Though if i had a lot of white painting to do, I'd probably use Army Painter White Spray (if i were doing say a White Scars army etc)[/QUOTE] Well the white I'm doing is pretty limited to stuff like marble details on tomb kings, the occasional detail on some other stuff. Speaking of white spray, I used the Citadel White Spray, and the models came out with a texture like sandpaper. What did I do wrong?

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;32571728]Painted too close / too thick?[/QUOTE] Possibly, but I used the Black Spray they had, and a couple of different third party sprays, the exact same way, and they all turned out fine.
Well my first models when I was like 10 or 11 all had horrible thick paint and that was usually pretty sandpaper-y.
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;32570915]What kind of people usually play Chaos? I can't help but have a deep seeded hatred for all things Chaos. Not because it's a bad faction or anything, they're just terrible people who terrible things.[/QUOTE] I'm that kind of person :v: or i would be if i had the money.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;32572082]Nothing, Skull White Spray is terrible, The Army Paints white goes on much much smoother.[/QUOTE] Skull White worked fine for me
Call me heretic , but i've been playing Eldar for years now lol [QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;32571422]You can still worship the Emperor of Mankind if you want in the Tau Empire. It just can't conflict with the Greater Good philosophy.[/QUOTE] I just dont get how the Tau are able to fight a war against the empire of man?
[QUOTE=MagnusTacitus;32572375]I just dont get how the Tau are able to fight a war against the empire of man?[/QUOTE] They won't be able to win a war against the Imperium of man. As 27X/Zezibesh noted, the Tau could easily be exterminated/wiped out by now seeing as they're such a small faction, but they've merely been a nuisance to the other factions and they haven't gained the attention of any other major faction. [QUOTE=MagnusTacitus;32572375]Call me heretic , but i've been playing Eldar for years now lol[/QUOTE] Eldar are awesome.

How long should I wait between painting layers?
[QUOTE=Scar;32572515]By the way, you know what would be cool to see? Space Marines that embraced the Greater Good Like Super Gue'vesa[/QUOTE] Space Marines embracing the Greater Good sounds matt-wardian. If they embrace the Greater Good then they are as good as their traitor counterparts.

[QUOTE=Scar;32572595]Sounds less rediclious than them teaming up with NECRONS And fighting for communistic Space Japanese sounds better then fighting for the Gods of all that is bad[/QUOTE] That was only one occasion, and that was due to Matt Ward. But you fail to realize one fact: if they stop fighting for the Emperor and go fight for the Greater Good, they're heretics. It's the same with their traitor counterparts, they stopped fighting for the Emperor to go fight for the Chaos Gods.

Not like it would happen anyway, I was just thinking that Space Marines with the Tau color scheme would look cool
[QUOTE=Scar;32572731]Not like it would happen anyway, I was just thinking that Space Marines with the Tau color scheme would look cool[/QUOTE] If you need yellow marines, just play the imperial fists.
[QUOTE=Hoboharry;32572566]Space Marines embracing the Greater Good sounds matt-wardian. If they embrace the Greater Good then they are as good as their traitor counterparts.[/QUOTE] They could believe that the Imperium has become too corrupt or something so they leave and join the Tau Empire.
[QUOTE=nightlord;32573133]They could believe that the Imperium has become too corrupt or something so they leave and join the Tau Empire.[/QUOTE] Ironically, they'd probably be closer to the Emprah's teachings aiding the Greater Good than they would in the Imperium.
[QUOTE=Cone;32573145]Ironically, they'd probably be closer to the Emprah's teachings aiding the Greater Good than they would in the Imperium.[/QUOTE] Yeah, funny how the secular imperial truth turned into what it is. And with funny I mean grimdark
