Tau Devilfish

Yip, this was the first unit that I completed. Obviously being my first model, it took me some time to get it to a state where I was happy. Not to mention the 6 layers of paint it has on, mainly due to me trying to paint the camo paterns, as displayed in the codex.

And I must say, I did not come right with the camo paterns, even after trying some variations that the codex suggested. So, being confronted with my still highly underdeveloped painting skills, I decided to make some minor variations to the theme. I painted the whole unit with Vomit Brown, and then used Shining Gold to accentuate certain features. When I added Tau insignia the overall effect was quite satisfying.

Needless to say, though, I still have some way to go before I'll be counted as talented! LOL
