A little side project...

So with the coming end to the Independent Characters podcast, I've found myself rather adrift in terms of how to tackle my Tau project for the year.  The effort to carry on the 2015 challenge by several members of the staff just doesn't do it for me -- seems futile given that the blog will close up at the end of the year.

But I want to paint my Tau ... so I've been mass producing them all in one go.  It's grueling work and nothing to post so far for photos.  I did learn that Vallejo's washes are VERY rich and need to be cut with water to be of any use.

For the moment, however, I've just  wrapped up painting three minis for a friend who's running an AD&D campaign.  They're from the Reaper Chronoscope range -- impressive detail on them, and learning to paint true scale was fun (*what do you mean I can't have a pistol as big as my torso!?!).
