+++TYRANIDS OUTPOST+++

 

http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/ETL_6_Poster_02_Forum_XENOS_Tyranids.jpg

 

Welcome to the Tyranids Outpost. Tyranids belong to the “Xenos” Faction.


HERE IS WHERE YOU MUST POST YOUR VOWS

 

Here you must also post your “before” and “after” pics of your vows as well as any WIP you may want to share. You may also use this thread to discuss the progress of the event with your fellow participants, exchange ideas, offer and receive modelling/painting advice and generally have some ETL–related fun!

 

Here you’ll be able to submit vows that include the following units: 

 

- Codex Tyranids: All units

 

- Index Xenos 2:

  • All units from the Genestealer Cults list

- Index Imperium 2:

  • All units from the Fortifications list

- Imperial Armour Index – Xenos:

  • All units from the Tyranids list

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: ALWAYS USE THE LATEST PUBLICATION TO SELECT AND PRICE YOUR UNITS
This means that the Index lists are good until the Codex is released (in which case the Index list becomes obsolete and cannot be used by anyone). Also, FAQs that come in the wake of a particular Codex (or other publication) take precedence over the Codex (or other publication). Also, any PDF releases by either Games Workshop or Forge World are also admissible (even if experimental) until an official publication that contains them is released. 

 

Before you post you vow make sure you familiarise yourself with the ETL VI rules. You can find a link to the ETL VI rules below:

Small progress is progress still

 

Swarmolrd WIP

 
Motivational logic says you should start with infantry/small models and proceed to large monster to promote your motivation, but I just like to throw bugs at the enemy, so I started with the big boy
 
Still a lot of work to do and this picture have no mercy with my errors
 

May or may not be affected by the fact that I just learned some big family news

Swarmlord ETL2WIP


 

Progress! I would consider it almost finished if not for this guy (hope not to brake any forum rules by posting a link to his blog) who unfortunately is my friend and in my gaming group and an absolute master at conversion and painting!

 

He constantly pushes me to do my absolute best and I think Swormy deserve it...

So I will go for some more work on him, and will go with a bit less effort with other models of my vow...I really hope to do at least another before the end of ETL

OOOK, I consider it finished

 

Also, as far as miniatures go, I have a brand new definition of finished. I actually felt the level up in my painting skills^^;;

As said before, it's all Valknut fault!

 

Swarmlord

Swarmlord2

Swarmlord3

Swarmlord4

 
I actually want NEED to do some infantry now, so my motivational gamble kinda worked in an unexpected way
 
Still waiting for some other "hexapode" Vows and completition! Come on guys, if I could do this, you can do much more!

Congrats Fikarion, that is truly an inspiring piece... Do you plan to do the base too?

 

 

 

THIS IS THE CUT-OFF FOR THE WEEKLY UPDATE - EVERY VOW OR COMPLETION REPORTED BEYOND THIS POINT WILL COUNT FOR NEXT WEEK'S UPDATE.

 

 

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

In due time, yes, but I'm used to do the bases of grups of models together, to make them more uniform (as I do my tyranids with small coloration differences, some albinos...you will see), even with different "ranking" of bases for more important models

 

But for now I will not work on him anymore for now, focusing to other models. My vow is very far from finished (I just started the purestrians)

 

On a side note, I used Swarmy in battle yesterday and he brought havoc to the enemy and victory to the Hive! (Fast Kraken Swormypowered Genestealers are Fast!^^)
