Are there any good drawings, sketches or, better yet, examples of actual gaming terrain built that would show clearly how typical Tau architecture is supposed to look?

Thanks,

There was a GW table at the Games Day Canada 2001 I believe that had a whole Tau city on it. It was fantastic. They looked like big white buidlings with little detail on them, mostly plastic looking.

I'd love to get my hands on some or have the time to make them. Or even find pictures of that table again.

It was sort of like this:

I would imagine that one of the White Dwarfs from when the Tau came out had pictures in it. I'm at the hospital at the moment and probably won't be home for a few days but when I get back I'll have a look.

those pictures are cool, I like the little green mushroom things
I always liked the Tau they are so different from the rest of the 40K universe.

I always thought those 6mm models from Old Crow are perfect for Tau …

I think so too, too bad they're so small. grin

I think it's high time I started looking at odd packaging and such, with an eye towards that style…
