Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 That flyrant is lovely and I like the tail being used as a flying stand. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334908-tyranid-showcase/#findComment-4786963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxichobbit Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I'm going for Leviathan, though a slight variant of the colour scheme. So far I've painted a Norn Queen ... or maybe a baby Gaunt.

Closet Skeleton Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) I need to get new picks, these old ones appear to have been taken by a hack who didn't know what he was doing .  http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb193/Closet_Skeleton/tyranidarmyfull.jpg  How he got into my house to take pictures of my tyranid army and upload them to my photobucket account I may never know.

Sabadin Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 Love all the old school warriors you have there. Here's a Lictor I did a while ago, the idea was it was just popping out of the snow with the camouflage blending out to it's normal tones.

Mechanist Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Well it's been a while since I painted any of my nids or used them but they will always be one of my core forces, last time I managed a painting spree I was following along with "facing the grey Tides" a tail of painters and managed a fair bit of painting. With a solid bunch painted up including http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7Ry917eXXI4/VUX7fMCsTwI/AAAAAAAADJ4/Gos3vYP4Cg4/s1600/Malenthrope%2BFully%2BFinnished.jpg and http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EAMVQi_-YDQ/VUX7sPkBohI/AAAAAAAADKA/TLQ6xhXOk-Q/s1600/Hive%2BTyrant%2Bside.jpg  however I got significantly behind thanks in part to a bonkers amount of overtime and then this happened. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mVeMTKRWpRg/VaP2j1f_m7I/AAAAAAAADuI/vKJVSuEsgwo/s1600/Arrrg%2BCrash.jpg which killed my mojo. But with 8th Hive fleet Mantis will live again. AdeptusPictus, Dr_Ruminahui and Filkarion 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334908-tyranid-showcase/#findComment-4790176 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filkarion Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Great works everyone, I will soon post my Kraken-Colored beasts (I came to fall short of love for that scheme, so I'm in a bit of trouble and looking for variations).  I especially like what Mechanist had done with cold palette here!

AdeptusPictus Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Alright. Nid players unite. I love it. Great stuff everyone. Really dig hive fleet mantis! Brave color choices. I am currently slaving away trying to get all my Nids painted for 8th. Lots of WIPs. Here's a shot of one of my tyrannofex's that is all finished up. so good to see the great devourer on this forum finally!

Mechanist Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Thanks guys. That Tyranofex looks brilliant AdeptusPictus. I'll have to get the Tyrant fixed up and work out where I got to with the models waiting to be finished.

AdeptusPictus Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Thanks Mechanist! Inquisitor Q, that is a good looking force. I haven't tried allying with the cult yet. Make sure to post how things shake out in 8th ed gameplay. Here's another old monster while I finish up all my new stuff!

dwez Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Just out of interest, when were Xenos let into B&C, back when I joined it was Imperium only. I mean I welcome the fact it is now tolerant of the xenoform and encouraging diversity in all it's glorious shapes and sizes but somewhere I missed the memo they were welcome  For some unknown reason I can't seem to embed the picture I wanted to, something to do with image extensions. But if you're interested in the Hive Fleet Gorgon Ferron Splinter Fleet they're showcased here:  www.40kaddict.uk/p/showcase-2.html  alongside my Dark Angels and other figures  Edited June 29, 2017 by dwez Redtoof 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334908-tyranid-showcase/#findComment-4801867 Share on other sites More sharing options...
