Bob is a friendly Tau. He's currently employed as an XV88 pilot in the service of the Greater Good(tm). In his spare time, Bob is an avid member of the Fire caste and he likes to shoot Heavy Rail Rifles, preferably at things that are far, far away.
Fred is Bob's coworker and squadmate. He's also Bob's best friend and once a week, they get together for a night of poker. That night, they are joined by other employees of the Greater Good(tm) like Lucy and Joe. Joe is just a starting Shas'la and is currently something of a pariah, being without a squad to belong in. Also, everybody thinks him and Lucy are a couple, but Lucy thinks she is way out of his league. Lucy is (for now) unique in the Greater Good(tm) as she is the only marker drone around. Maybe that's why she has a bit of a superiority complex.
Bob's current title is Shas'ui, but at night, he dreams of becoming Shas'vre one day. Could you help Bob out by not trying to kill him next time he's on the battlefield? Bob would be very grateful.
Also, Bob doesn't like the fact that his feet need to be so close together, he'd much prefer a larger space to pose. However, his employer is using old equipment right now, but once newer equipment becomes available, Bob was promised an upgrade.
Anyway, this was just an introduction to announce the next batch of minis to be painted: 2 (old) broadsides, a Firewarrior and a marker drone.
I got up to the point where they are highlighted and the armor has had its 2 washes of violet... in other words, most of the work is done ;)
I will need to figure out how to paint the rail rifles as I'm not really sure at the moment, that's why they are just in the drybrushed stage.
Will Lucy get together with Joe or is this blog going in another direction? Stay tuned for our next episode...
