I know the circles on the guns are stabilizers, and it would make sense for that to be on the thrusters. Not as sure about the arm, but I guess that could be stabilized too
Proud of you for tackling your pile of s̶h̶a̶m̶e̶ opportunity. Models looks great! Would love to see you tackling weathering on one of the bigger suits, like a relic battlesuit that's seen some serious fighting. p.s. Random bits on the model are called gubbins.
Thanks dude! We will get a fully painted game of 40k in one day I promise haha. Definitely gonna attempt some weathering on a bigger battlesuit like unit in the future…
I think those gold bits are gyros (at least on the joints), which I imagine are some kind of high tech T'au device to give greater range of motion than a normal limb (so for example the arm could bend backwards where an elbow would ordinarily stop you from moving)
I think on a larger model, using more of the accent colour like grey helps to break up all the red. Also have a look for plasma glow tutorials to help make that Ion Accelerator look amazing!
Nice video, I need to tackle my pile of shame of Tau as well.

Thank you for watching! Definitely more in the pipeline for sure

In really enjoyed listening and watching whilst painting
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it
Just started a farsight army too and this video was great. Big fan
Welcome to the Enclaves my friend!
The added fern is the best bit. Beautifully painted but more models should have plants on em, 5*s
I will endeavour to add more plants in the future haha. Thanks for always watching though dude!
The small details really make the whole thing look amazing. Great job love the vids!
Thank you dude! And thank you for always watching man I appreciate it so much

Amazing, thank you!
i think they are gyros as well. you can see them on the infantry guns, guessing it helps to stabilise them for better shooting.
Thanks alot. Is there any other details apart from just more layers to consider when painting my xv104 riptide battlesuit?
