WIP: Tyranid Warriors from Deathstorm #1
My Deathstorm mission continues with the building of the three Tyranid Warriors. After the jump you can see what I did with some of the spares. I’ve hacked up 6 old warriors and retrofitted them with some new bio-weapons. These models were from a 4th…
Showcase: Tyranid Carnifex
Remember when the Carnifex use to be a huge monster? With the arrival of new Tyranid Heavy-weights such as the Toxicrene and Tyrannofex, the humble Carnifex seems a touch small now. It’s a good job you can take them as broods of three now then!…
Showcase: Tyranid Broodlord The Spawn of Cryptus
The Spawn of Cryptus is the Tyranid Warlord from the Death Storm box set. It’s a limited edition model and is only available in the £75 boxed game. It’s a hulking brute of a Broodlord, noticeably larger than the metal/finecast original model. The stooped over…
Showcase: Speed painted Tyranid Spawn of Cryptus
Hey all, today I thought I’d show my new Tyranid Spawn of Cryptus from the recently released Deathstorm set. The model is fairly nice and comes on a new oval base. I painted this model in just over 2 hours. Which I’m quite impressed with…
Showcase: Space Hulk Tyranid Genestealers
It feels great to get these models finally finished. They’ve been undercoated black and sat on my shelf since the Space Hulk came out in 2009. Check out some close ups after the jump including a full brood of twenty with their Brood Lord. I…
WIP: Tyranid Genestealers
A quick WIP post to show some Space Hulk Genestealers I’m painting. These are for my Hive Fleet, so I’ve based them on 25mm bases and I’m painting them in my own colour scheme. If you have a spare couple of minutes, why not click…
Showcase: Tyranid Toxicrene
This huge writhing mass of whip-like tentacles is complete! The model is a lot of fun to paint, because it’s not like any other Tyranid model out there. It’s huge and really dynamic, you can almost imagine the lashwhips are moving. After the hyper toxic…
WIP: Tyranid Toxicrene #3
The purple blends are complete. I just have the bone claws, black carapace and my yellow spotting to do. Creeping into the background are doe of my other big critters. I like to surround myself with similar projects for motivational purposes. What tricks do you…
Showcase: Rebased Forge World Tyranid Trygon
I’ve shown this Trygon before. I’m sharing it again because i’ve updated it’s base. It’s previous base was hand made by myself and pretty awful. Find out how I got my hands on a spare oval base after the jump. If you’re a longtime reader,…
WIP: Tyranid Toxicrene #2
I haven’t been painting that much recently. I’ve been quite busy with birthdays, work functions, friends and so on. So sadly I’m a little behind with my Toxicrene. After the jump you can see how far I am with it’s lash whips. Everything on the…
