Showcase: 2nd Edition Tyranid Warriors
I use the term showcase extremely loosely with these models. I’m using it for consistency purposes because we at Tale Painters describe our completed works as showcase. So using the Showcase Tag you can see all our completed works, or using the WIP Tag you…
Showcase: 3 Rogue Trader Tyranid Warriors.
Pushed through the lack of interest barrier to complete this squad. It’s always nice to complete a project that’s been hanging around for a while. Also, I’m still getting to grips with my studio flash photography set up. I’ve bought a grey card so I…
Showcase: Rogue Trader Tyranid Warrior
In an attempt to jump start my hobby again after a lack of personal interest, I decided to pick up a single model on my desk and paint it to completion. I went for a quick gaming standard instead of putting any serious effort…
WIP: Tyrannofex #2
Small amount of work done to this model. Nothing major to report really. I’m hoping I can spend some more time on it over the next couple of days to break the back of if.

Showcase: Tyranid Red Terror Conversion
I always thought the Red Terror model from GW wasn’t big enough to represent the creatures stats so I built my own out of a metal LOTR Fell Beast and Carnifex with a few Red Terror parts and green stuffing thrown in to tie it…

Showcase: Tyranid Forge World Hierophant I
This is my first Hierophant, not the one you might have been following in the WIP blogs. It’s my older paint scheme. As I mentioned this is my older scheme. Plenty of yellow patterning and the green spot colour. It also has the striping on…
