Try a wet palette so your paint doesn't start to gum up. And try a larger brush (it holds more moisture so the paint on tip doesn't dry as quick)

I personally bought a wet palette on amazon and a winsor & newton series 7 size 3 brush and it's really helped smooth my paint out. The clumps are coming from paint drying.

People who say "expensive" brushes aren't worth it and that you should be Michelangelo before buying anything nice are pretentious.

Rotring Tikky Graphic pen 0.1mm has the best flow and is what I've used here. I've used other pens that are even thinner which was great at 0.05mm but the flow wasn't as good so I'm going to stick with Tikky for the moment. I've heard that you get a more realistic result using a dark brown ink instead of black but I haven't been able to find a decent one as yet.

Looks like some StarCraft novels (in... German?):

Dry brushing some black could do it, but I usually use pastel powders, and seal them in with a flat coat on top.

The first book I bought was an E book full of other books.

The Tau Empire A Legends of the Dark Millennium book

Aun'Shi
Commander Shadow
Shadowsun: The Last of Kiru's Line
A Sanctuary of Wyrms
Out Caste
Fire and Ice
Farsight
The Patient Hunter
The Kauyon
The Tau'va


This book is from the perspective of a Rogue Trader and the first crusade attacking the Tau Empire.
Rogue Trader Omnibus

This book is about an Imperial Guard regiment fighting Gue'vesa and Tau forces.
Fire Caste

Fire Warrior Is about an individual fire warrior absolutely wrecking imperial forces on his own. It gives a lot of interesting views on imperial culture from the perspective of the fire caste.

I would absolutely buy the first book listed again, it's 10 stories. Some of them are pretty short but it's neat how you hear about some of the characters again in other books.

If you are starting out from scratch you should invest in this brush cleaner. Use it when you're done painting and it will drastically extend the life and quality of your brushes. One tub will last you for years.

Im using these. The bit is kinda trash, but it works. Pro tip: make sure all of them are facing the same direction on the model! I didnt and it makes getting the right loadout difficult.

u/Sigurd_DragonSlayer · 1 pointr/Tau40K

You 100% do NOT want an electric drill for magnetizing your models. All you would want is a pin vice, another $10 or so on amazon. With a pin vice you are just turning the drill bit by hand, with the electric drill if you make one slip or mistake you will punch right through your model or grind off a ton of detail.

Edit: since I was on amazon, here are the magnets I bought. I think doing the weapons on a Crisis Suit would probably be easier with slightly smaller magnets though.

That box in itself is about 900 points, and full of crisis suits and drones. Its actually a killer deal too. I could honestly recommend it to anyone that plays tau. Here it is on amazon. The box msrp is $170, but even at 200 its a steal. Its over $300 worth of stuff, and crisis suits are alot of fun imo.
