TTS Project-Megatron Tau
2016 is well underway at this point, and our miniature services are really taking off! Today we’ll be covering one of our latest projects, a Megatron themed Tau army! We’re going to have a few upcoming seasonal specials based on theme sets, they’ll be a great way to save some money and come away with a unified army theme. For now, check out the video below and let us know what Transformer theme you’d like to see next!
This army was a lot of fun to paint, and we used a lot of strategically placed edge highlighting to get the desired effect. Tau have this reputation of being one of the least intimidating armies, especially with all that “For the Greater Good” rhetoric, so getting them to have a hardcore villain feel was a really enjoyable task. We also brought the theme through in the basing for certain pieces like the riptide below. Cork basing is a simple but effective technique to give your models a more interesting shape beyond regular base texture.

While we’re talking about new services, we’d love to hear what kind of content you’d like to see us produce for our miniature projects. Our terrain sets are usually used in battle reports, but we’re open to suggestions on what would be most useful to you as a hobbyist!

We have quite a few new projects in the works for the coming months, including a Pacific Rim kaiju themed Tyranid army! Following us on social media is a great way to keep up with what the studio is up to, so if you’d like to get to know us a bit better, you can find us on….
