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.
WIP: Tyrannofex #1
The hobby for me has been a bit slow recently, so this model isn’t very far along in terms of progress. I’m hoping that sharing a WIP shot will help spur me on so I can complete it. It’s a lovely big kit with a…
WIP: Rogue Trader Tyranid Warriors
It has been slow going on these old skool Tyranid Warriors, I’ve been working on them sporadically in-between Dreadfleet ships. I’ve painted a lot of Tyranids in the past (including these back in the early 90’s) but I must say, the detail on these models…
WIP: Classic OOP Tyranid Warriors
I love these old Turkey Warriors. In 1994 aged 13 I jumped on a train after school to buy a box of these. I remember the box, it was purple with some yellow and photograph of 3 warriors on the front. You always stick (or…
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…
Showcase: Tyranid Forge World Harridan
I love this kit. It’s not too many parts and it’s structural sound unlike the Hierophant and it’s huge! Much bigger then the Hierophant with it’s impressive 13″ wingspan. The first thing you’ll notice about this model is I’ve ditched the resin stand that was…
Showcase: Tyranid Forge World Trygon
I’ve had this model for a couple of years now. The detail on this model far surpasses Games Workshop’s cheaper Trygon. The FW Trygon has dipper crisper ribbing on the chest, and plated carapace armour all the way down the tail and the Scything Talons…
