Now that my painting area is warm enough to work in again, it’s back to working on the Eight. Well, five of them anyway, and all the drones. Red and grey highlights are done, so now onto black highlights, and then lenses and finishing up the basing. #miniaturepainting #warhammer40k #warhammer40000 #tau #farsightenclaves #theeight #crisissuit #wip https://www.instagram.com/p/BtusmmqHYbm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bgq0zh98d87f

Sub-Commander Torchstar Tau, Farsight Enclaves Painted 7/19/15 I had gotten a box of the XV-8 crisis suits around the time I was getting into 40k around December 2013 and really had no idea what to do with them. So I tucked them away and didn't mess with them. When the Farsight Enclaves supplement came out and gave load outs on how to equip the Eight, then that's what I did. But when I first painted him, I did a horrible job. My base coats were fine, however it reaffirmed my "paint before you assemble" mentality. I did a black wash all over thinking it'll add depth and then even highlighted. It was horrible. He was WAY too dark. At the time, I didn't even think about brightening back up with the base coats again. On top of that, I didn't prepare him with a cleaning before priming so in certain spots, the primer was rubbing off. This time, I did a whole new base coat. The paint was rubbing off again in one certain spot. I went over that spot 5 times. The 5th time, I went over the mode with a gloss varnish before I highlighted. That seemed to have fixed it. After highlighting, I went over with a matte varnish to cut down on the shine. I learned a lot of thing a from him, even as I repainted it when I was more knowledgeable. As for his pose, he has 2 flamers. I wanted it to look like he was slowly stepping forward and scanning the battlefield, ready to ignite anything that got close to him.
