Hello out there! Something old, something new is the story of this post. Back into 40k with a new Tau army, prepped and ready for paint, on top of some hand made slate bases for the most part. A few Elrik's Hobbies in there, with more on the way for the fliers.
Another fun reason to do a pre-paint post is to show off the new workbench. It isn't my grandpa's 1950's time capsule as some of you may remember for these posts, but it is still my style. The wood is all salvaged studs and joists from tearing down the old house that I kept for this.
A swatch card for the project shows primary up top, to the basing thoughts in the bottom rectangle. Some camo samples in various degrees of finish for sake of example surround.
Will be a fun project, and while the end of the Civil War project is bittersweet for it being so large and such a big part of my life, it does feel good to get back to my roots of 40k. Looking forward to a pretty 40k post at the end of this, and on a new backdrop as well. Posts on that will come soon, too.
By the way, can you find the new Waldo? This is his first home-base debut as well. I kept it a little easy this time. Won't always be in the future.
Thanks for reading, see you next time.
