Those look great! Is the color white or very light grey? Either way, it's very clean and smooth

Those look awesome! Although I wish I could give thumbs up to your paint job but thumbs down to your unit choice. Boo to more pathfinders / marker lights!  |

I have that, Fenrisian Grey and Russ Grey for all the Greys. These look really good man, are they the first unit you've fully painted then? |

Nice! Weren't you initially doing a red and white color scheme? Why the change?

There's something about Ulthuan than makes it way better than white, like ceramite/scar, the key difference in my opinion is that you don't need to go crazy trying to create your own shadow effects or other effects like you need to with bright colors. It's not the first unit I've completed (my riptide looks pretty decent), but it's the first unit that I've really sat down with and put 100% of my energy and patience in. I don't even want to admit how long it took. |

Nice! Weren't you initially doing a red and white color scheme? Why the change? I was inspired by the Infiltration Cadre box art, and just liked it so much that I went with it, with some minor changes. It doesn't hurt to have pathfinders be significantly different from my firewarriors, since my opponent can never tell the two apart (um, duh, the pants are TOTALLY different, can't you tell?). In the end, I think that the army is still primarily ulthuan/black with different colored accents is still congruent, but I'll let you be the judge next time you see the army in the field. |

Yo that sounds like a challenge Leman Russel will you answer the call? Tau v Tau "training exercise" |
