I've finally completed the Tau Hammerhead tank I've been working on over the last week.
It's painted in a fairly standard Tau scheme, overall sand with brown camo and black details.
Still, I'm very pleased with how it's turned out. The Hammerhead is probably my favourite WH40K vehicle
along with the Eldar Falcon.
The model is painted entirely with Humbrol and Revell enamels. The lights and cockpit "windscreen" are painted
with Humbrol #11 (chrome silver) and overpainted with transparent enamels.)
Also, here are the Space Marines vehicles I was working on earlier, now finished - Blood Angels Landspeeder:
The surface definition on this model isn't particularly good as it was a second-hand model, painted very badly,
and I had to paint it with brake fluid and scrub off as much of the old paint as I could. I then painted it with
Revell enamel which refused to set properly, and also had to be cleaned off with white spirit. I finally painted it
with Games Workshop Blood Red which of course went on perfectly. The decals are also slightly silvered, GW decals seem
to be prone to this - I'll need to get some more Microsol.
and Ultramarines bike. The shade of blue is a bit too dark, I painted this before I bought a pot of Ultramarines
Blue from my local Games Workshop store, so I had to use the nearest match I had - Revell #56; however I still think
it looks quite good.
I also finished the Eldar Jetbike (added a decal, flag, and varnished the model) and painted a Guardian
figure (not a pilot, unfortunately I don't have one..) to go with it (in the colours of Saim-Hann craftworld)
- and painted some more Eldar troops (Biel-Tan craftworld colours). I'm quite pleased with these, they're my best figures so far. The gemstones, sword, etc. are painted using the same technique used for the lights on the Hammerhead.
