Awaken Realms Tau Hexagonal army showcase

[Awaken Realms]

Hello there!

We recently had an opportunity to paint a rather big, full of vehicles and battlesuits Tau army.

We’ve enjoyed painting it in the high-tech, chrome-like scheme complimented by hexagonal patterns that nicely highlight the difference of technological approach when compared to the human technology in Warhammer 4000 – we find these patterns really fitting the technologically advanced, alien race.
Anyway, you can see the models on the pictures:

After the vehicles, the Tau infantry appeared to spread the Greater Good, followed by the team of Crisis battlesuits:

As the army is finally finished, it’s time to share it in it’s full glory!
