Old Style Tyranids
« on: March 02, 2015, 05:32:59 PM »
I have had a couple of recent, and some not so recent, blog posts about my growing Tyranid forces and I think I have missed posting about it here?

At least I couldn't find anything recent, so I will just post some random Tyranid pictures here:


Aliens clash in the Deathworld deserts.





















Some of the photos are old, so you might have seen some of them before, I apologise for that, but I hope it is still ok for me to post this thread of my collected Tyranid forces so far.

I'd never seen so many zoats together.
The conversion (black undercoat) looks interesting.
AND I ike the old school marines. Grand show  :D :o 8) 8) 8)

The "conversion" is actually a non converted Dominator, I just need to paint it.

It is a rare piece of GW uglyness, hahahah.... It will look great with the other Tyranids though.

It might actually be possible to field a decent size army for some game. Maybe I should track down that White Dwarf army list at some point.

Lovely old school Tyranids!  :-*
Awesome that you have so many of the old "hunter-killer" tyranids.

Thanks, let me point out though, the painted Dominators are not mine, I just found them on google search, but the basecoated is mine and will probably see paint later in 2015.

Nice! Actual Tyranid Tyranids...and Zoats! I remember making those spiky cactus (cacti?) for my own table. They were a pain to store but I always thought they looked cool. I might try making some new versions.

Great work, looking forward to more.
