This is a Fire Warrior for the Tau Army I've started collecting. I saw Bruno Rizzo's amazing work in an old White Dwarf and thought it was a really great way to represent the dichotomy of an advanced race such as the Tau being forced to operate for extended periods of time in a hostile desert environment far from any of their home territories.

This army will have splintered off from the main Tau force, after having had to live for so long on their own, so I've Greenstuffed the original Tau symbol and painted the emblem for their new faction. Also, I'm planning to give each of the warriors unique bar codes near the scopes of their weapons, to denote which weapon belongs to whom.

Hope you enjoy, more to come!
