Guardsman Squad 1

This squad is, in the majority, made using Cadian parts. The legs, arms and head are off the Cadian sprue, with the main modifications being the presence of a Tau shoulder pad (only present in this squad, because of the limited number found in a Fire Warrior box) and the replacement of the Cadian body with a Fire Warrior one. This replacement was simple as the Tau bodies are slightly slimmer than Cadian bodies so there was no problm with bits not fitting.

Finally I added the Tau backpacks and trimmed the end of the gun to make it more distinctive. The Imperial eagle was covered up by the antennae from the Tau sprue. The Sergant has a Tau head and a gun drone antenna on his backpack, and the Vox-caster also has a Tau head, with a Cadian Vox.
