Tyranids continued..

So I promised to put up more 'nids and here we go.
first of all is a request from a mate who wanted to see my Old One Eye.
I assumed this wasn't a come on and he meant the carnifex instead.

He's a great beast and I was so lucky to pick him up listed as "bitz" for £6 on eBay.

Death Leaper & Lictor

not had a chance to field these guys yet so still to see there effectiveness, still they are great looking models.

Lictor
Tyrant Guard

Probably one of my favourite 'nids. They just exude brute force and aggression. Never let the Hive tyrant go without them.

Genestealer
Usually field two good sized squads of these from reserve or Infiltrate to mess up my opponent's day.

Excuse the brood lord in back, his arms are unpainted after a swap out for a pair that didn't come with the kit.

Hive Tyrant

In a moment of weakness I actually included guns on this guy, twin linked death spitters. Then I manned up and replace it with a full set of scything talons. Much better!

So that's all for now, hopefully soon I'll put up some pics of my nearly complete marine army.

Laters!

Tyranids

Hive Fleet Wyvern. This hive fleet is a bit of fun, I decided that guns were a very unmanly way to play 'nids so I have entirely excluded them from this army. The whole army runs close combat with he only ranged attack being the Bio plasma on my two screamer killer.
Paint scheme wise i decide to go old school and have the old rogue trader genestealer purple and blue. Oh how I wish you could still run a Genestealer Cult army.
First up is the Mawloc

Has been a great unit to use, though he's a little hit and miss as an actual attack I've found leaving him in plain view in reserve has a great Psycological effect. most opponents tend to be very cautious with there tanks when they see I have him.

At some point I'd like his other brethren to bolster my army but that may be some time from now.
More pics of the nid's to come as well as a progress report on The Sons of Ignis

More pics to come soon.

Oh I have also been putting a lot of time into the new Space Marine game from THQ, great fun, even better when they fix multi player.
