Then on a forum, i saw someone slagging off the idea of chaos tau, i lept at the challenge to a) make a fluff that works. b) do some epic conversions! i think i succeded in that respect.
the suits i already have are now terminators (i'll get pics soon) and the fluff is that the suits have been possesed not the tau, and therefore bypass the whole greater good and no warp pressence problem.
here's my tournament list

One particular model I'm proud of is the captain. I angled the grove that goes into the slota base up about 2cm, and then (using my traditional tile adhesive!) modeled a rock around it. and for a finishing tounch cut some bristles off an old paintbrush to make a bush... thingy...
You'll see soon.

Not much news on the 40k front, pinted a few more of the zerkers and some of the plauge marines. (Which my Tau army now hate btw!)
But in other news, upon playing War of the Ring, I have decided to start up a small force of the white hand, and so will be posting up the first model soon. (soon as i can get my hands on a good camera that is!)

And wrote a little backstory for my chaos. Here it is. C&C please as always!
Exterminatus...
A space marine order initiating a withering hail of cyclone missiles, completely exterminating all life forms on a planet, on-one has ever survived one....
Until now.
Imagine a small war band of chaos underground, led by the Khornate Battle Master Kurn, fighting for their lives and for favor of the chaos gods against the near infinite tide of Necrons, on a planet far from the centre of the imperium, followers of slannesh fighting on the surface against wave upon wave of imperial guard and loyalist space marine...
And when they emerge they find everything gone. No war. No Loyalist scum or brother chaos. Just ... nothing.
And so retrieving the last two ships from underground, and hell bent on destroying the traitorous scum who robbed them of a birth planet, they leapt into space. One ship filled with Khornate soldiers and Nurgle plaugebearers, the other filled with Tzeench's minions...
But there was another...
Behind them in the void flew a daemon price with no pronounceable name. Betrayed by Tzeench and believed to be destroyed, he whispered psychically into Kurn's mind...
Without any warning, the Tzeench ship was fired on broadside, and was lost to the warp. And so the war band was eternally blessed by the presence of the daemon price, which remained unseen, but quietly guided them.
The last ship continued unheeded dropping out of the warp only for fresh victims and spawn planets. It would continue in this way for millennia, until it reached its destination...
Terra...

I've been working on scratchbuilding a rhino trying to keep it as cheap as possible.
Used foamboard for the structure (£10 for 5 sheets used one sheet so £2)
Used some filler i had lying around (free) and some sandpaper (free) and some spikey bitz from the chaos box set (also free) and viola...
A rhino for £2!
