Ah, Christmas!
A time for festivities, family, good will to all men... and a few blessed days off work to frantically build and paint your little plastic dudes with their little plastic guns!
But it really is the perfect time for this sort of thing, isn't it? Because it's cold outside, there isn't much to do out there, business has pretty much closed down for the festive period and all you do is spend your time with friends and family. Which is even better if those friends happen to be gaming buddies.
So I'm planning to spend my time at James's place, or he and Marc can come to mine, we'll stick either all the Lord Of The Rings, ALIENS or Predator films on the telly and glue and paint to our heart's content.
And because New Year's Eve has been so ghastly, expensive and utterly disappointing in recent years, the guys are coming over for an evening of food, drink and games. Most likely Space Hulk, Zombies!!! and Super Dungeon Explore before finishing off with some terrible horror movies. You know, the kind that are SO BAD that they go full circle and somehow become GOOD.
Anyway, while there's no way that I'm getting through all 4 of these Tau Battle Forces, I'll do my best to get 1 of them done. I'm going to have to spend some serious time on my army if I want it to be ready in time for the next Tau Codex.
But in the meantime, what's going to be on your painting desk for Christmas?

About Warhammer Tau
Warhammer Tau is my blog where I talk about my Tau army in Warhammer 40K, the tournaments I attend, the friends that I play against and how difficult an army is to paint when you're a perfectionist!
I'm updating the design and layout of the blog at the moment, so please bear with me!

I'm still working on some Steel Legion guardsmen I got from ebay
hope your Tau army goes well! :D
Your new years eve plan sounds ace.
Horrah! Welcome back to the Tau'Va, bro. jealous of all those boxes...
better get those hands working now!
If i could give you a tip it would be to start with : 2 FW squads, 1 kroot and all the battlesuits and DevilFishs you have.
This is pretty much what will be the most usefull to you in the first place ;)
For me? i guess i'll be working on my warmachine cygnar army, just relax and maybe find some personal projects to extend my programming skills.
Good hunting Shas'o! ( i would have say happy holydays but i don't think we get those in the 41 millenium.)
Im trying to get my 3 broadsides painted and working on my kroot fire warriors and human pathfinders!
Terminators with Lightning claws to compliment my ones with T&SS.
And then lots and lots of Ogres. Should be a good Christmas break.
how are you painting your tau?
Same as before of course. It's my unique scheme :)
Painting: Finally gonna finish my fire warriors (the ones that came with the original battleforce that I bought 2 years ago when I first started playing tau!!!)
Building: 1/100 MG Sinanju Ver.Ka (Gundam) Excited! Give the gift of Gundam this Christmas, your loved ones won't be disappointed.
"Same as before of course. It's my unique scheme :)" cool I am going to start a new tau army soon and they will be orange and white
i'll be painting khorne of course...
