I like the original G/W colors for Tau too ! ?Panzer yellow is a Tactical Color ! ?I also will paint my Tau & Kroot like that ! ?But F/W Epic is hard to work with. ?The resin dust is toxic, you have to clean the resin with soapy water and/or vinager, they are too fragile for hard corps wargaming, and they are expensive ... ?But I've bought most of the F/W Epic anyway ... ? I like the detail, but they could have made them more robust, IMO ... But at least we have an Epic scale Tau Army !

It is recommended, somewhere on the F/W website, IIRC ... to wear an industrial-type painting masking if you are going to do a lot of sanding ... My eyes watered and nose burned and ran a little ... ?So I'd get that mask ... just to be safe. ?I went to Chemical/Bio/Nuc Defense Training while I was in the Army ... I've been careful about that kind of stuff since then !
