Title: Tau Warband
Post by: gwrulz on March 01, 2011, 11:21:42 PM
So I have put my other 54mm Inquisitor projects on hold and started work on my Tau.  My plan is to have a couple fire warriors, a water caste, a couple air caste, and an earth caste brute  ;D

My water caste will be straight GW model and I want my water caste to look like these

and a quick photo of my first 3 models - My Air Caste, GW's water caste, and Papah's Fire Warrior - but I think I am going to make his fire warrior into an earth caste and make my own fire warrior.  I think that the fire warriors will be skinnier

is that air caste a scaled up 3d scan printed out on a 3d printer/rapid prototype printer?

Nope, but that would have been allot easier!

Which begs the question, where did that model come from?  It looks remarkable.

Hey.. are you by any chance planning to let some 'fall of the back of a truck' into my collection, only to find some money mysteriously arrive in your paypal account? I'd certainly love to get my hands on one or two of those Air Caste models!

Are we going to get an answer to this question?
