Fire Golem Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 36 minutes ago, Quantum said: These are very nice models, but I do think that the pose is bland and really not that suitable. Lictors are infiltrators & hunters; they really should have a pose like they are crawling along cover or stalking some unsuspecting prey, not standing fully erect and revealing their presence to the enemy. Something like this? Xanthous and painting.for.my.sanity 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Golem Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 To be fair, I would say that isn’t far off that pose without having the massive statue and stuff. Alby the Slayer and tzeentch9 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alby the Slayer Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 It would be very interesting to see the sprue of this new kits, it seems we will have some left over bits that will make me very happy for kitbashing some horrible monstruosity.

Even just for the benefit of not having everyone's Lictor look the same. (That said, it's probably going to be more expensive, which I'm fine with) LSM 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roryokane Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) "We need a new name for a new 'Nid model" "Well, remember the Neurothrope?" "yeah" "hear me out: Neurotyrant." "Okay not bad" "wait, wait - neurogaunt" "cool" "wait wait wait - Neurolictor" "GIVE THIS MAN A PAY RAISE" (naming convention jokes aside, the new tyranid sculpts are truly a thing of beauty. Not sure about the cape for the deathleaper, but the rest are epic. I assembled the Leviathan box models in an afternoon - the first non-space marine miniatures I've ever assembled except for LOTR stuff. Really really cool beasties!)

Tymell Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Love these. Past Lictor models have just never really grabbed me, but these ones definitely do. Especially in love with the Neurolictor. They're really going hard on the "monstrosity with a swollen brain that will also likely suck out your brain" thing and I'm all for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The arms remind me a little of the brain-sucking arm on the Brain Bug in the Starship Troopers movie. Tymell 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nathan Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 been looking at the neurolictor again and whilst i like and want.. it bothers me... reminds me of something else.... older forgotton.. is this where their red terror update ended... or even is there a chance that this is a double kit?

The shins on the Neurolictor's legs look unarmored - but the upper legs (everything from hip to knee) look exactly like those on Deathleaper. mel_danes 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
