Four Tau Ghostkeels by Awaken Realms

Hello,

We’re in the process of painting of several Tau armies – and we’ve finished Ghostkeel suits for each of them. Take a look at them, compare and share your thoughts.

1) High-tech Tau

(the white matter under the feet is blu-tac – the model is not glued to the base to be sure he’ll make it in the shipment;) )

Which one you like the most and why? Do you have any idea how can we paint the fifth Ghostkeel suit?:)
Soon more of these project will be unfold;)

all excellent

First off, they are all great!

I like the Black suit best. It adds a touch of sinister to the Tau. It's an understated look whose details enhance and highlight the overall look without creating multiple focus points and give the model a solid "feel", like you would expect a battlesuit to have.

Ideas- maybe experiment with a woodland/jungle/desert camouflage scheme. Perhaps a midnight blue with dark purple detailing, lights in red/white with some bare metal pieces - call it the Void Tau?

Hope that helps.

I think the orange detailing on the black one shows it off well.
The blue one is nice but the white highlighting is overdone and detracts from it, If that was toned down I could easily have picked that as first.
