This looks incredible. Like the synthwave Tyranids, a short, consise, and easy to follow guide. I think I make try swapping the pink for a neon green. Whenever I actually get to my Farsight model. 😂

Thanks mang! if you use the colours from the legs and head then glaze over some fluro green it makes an amazing neon green!

Not only does this look absolutely amazing, but I can follow these instructions and get something… at least close to that. Thank you!

10/10 job! Super hyped about your scheme 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Holy snaps the lightsaber guide for the paint! Great idea! I have a lone tzaangor I've been wanting to use synthwave for! Dude stay fly!🎉

I've been struggling on the scheme I wanted to go with for my Tau. I wanted darker overall look but also that synthwave feel with focus on purples, blues, and magenta but couldn't get it to read quite right - This is PERFECT and I will be referencing this non-stop I'm certain.

nice to see Farsight paint job in real time.. I've watched for a long time your shorts and only realised I'm not even a sub, sorry. i am now. also one day when the codex is out, I'm sure Aun'shi will be redesigned for the Kroot wave coming, so be cool to see your take on him and add another fishface in your shorts to get swamped unless fighting other low tier combatants :D

This is so amazing! Thank you so much! The way you paint up your synthwave models whether ultradark like this or brighter like Ghazz is amazing! But if ever, would you be releasing a video how you made your deathleaper? It has ti be the best colorscheme for tyranids I've ever seen. Or is it just a combination of your tyranid scheme but with the claws you made for Ghazz?

I think art grade oil magenta would be better for blending with more and the pigmentation is of highter quality. But the overall scheme is pretty good for tau. Your technique is also really good on the yellow part.

@heresyforheretics

Can I ask. How did you do the base and flowers? You can see them painted but doesn’t take your eye away from the model. What colours did you use?

The base is painted in all the same colours as the farsight but mixed into some neutral greys and then a walk of AK Interactive dark tone to pull it all back down

Is it important for the overall effect to NOT highlight the edges of the black parts with any kind of grey colour? As you have left this part out it has to be significant.
