Swarmlord & Tervigon

I have tons of Necrons that I have finished painting, I just need to take the time to get photos of them all. For now here are a couple of the newer Tyranid Models GW released. I have a ton of Tyranid models so I try and keep the color scheme simple to allow me to paint them all in a decent amount of time. The scheme is a simple Hive Fleet Leviathan color scheme. 

I bought the new plastic Hive Tyrant/Swarmlord kit. I used all the bits to make a Flying Tyrant that I am in the process of painting. I still had an old metal hive tyrant kit new in the box so I was able to use the Swarmlord head and arms on that. So here is the metal hive tyrant body with Swarmlord head and swords.



Next up is the new Tervigon kit which most players probably assumed was never going to be released. I love the new model and think it looks much better than any of the conversion kits that some 3rd party websites were selling. It is much larger than a carnifex model and really has many design cues from the Forge World Bio Titan. It was a blast to paint and it stand out on the gaming table.




I have one more of these kits to paint up so expect that in the future. I am still trying to decide if it will be another Tervigon or if I will model it as a Tyrannofex.
