**Ratius**

Haha Xx, yes, she'll accept any allies for now.
Just keep checking under your bed for spore mines though.....

**xXWeaponPrimeXx**

Better relationship than my last.

Are they are least acid spore mines?

**SBG**

Great work, Ratius! I'm digging the army shot. Very cool, and congratulations on finishing up the Hive in such a reasonable amount of time. What are your plans now?

**alabamaheretic**

good work man really enjoyed the journey with you two

**Theophony**

You officially have more completed models than me......by 149

, I haven't based any of mine and I'm considering switching to clear bases as I've seen elsewhere.

**Trondheim**

Good grief! That is an amazing army. Well done and you should be very, very proud! It has been an joy to follow this thread

**BloodGenisis**

Very well done! You and Hissy have come a long way since the beginning and it looks much better now

Keep up the good work and eat to your hearts content! (On a side note I agree with Hissy, Eldar are like Cadbury Eggs. A thin shell and then tasty goo

)

**Ratius**

Thanks for the feedback and support everyone

**Ratius**

Ratiussssssssssss

Ratiussssssssssssssssssssssssss

Hissy, Hissy the Hive Tyrant.

Sorry have we met?

Ratiussss, me Hissy. Remember Hissys Hive?

Hmmm, what?

Hissy confusssed, Ratius?

Haha! Gotcha Hissy, did you think I'd forgotten you?

Not funny Ratiusss, Hissy not impresssssed.

Oh fair enough

Anyway how have you been Hissy?! Its been a while.

Hissy been fine. Hissy want to know what these are?

Uhhhhmmmm.

Ratiusss

Ok some new kits arrived but I didnt have time to work on them immediately so I shoved them under the bed.

Hissy found them.

Why were you under my bed anyways......?

Not relevant. Ratius going to make up new kitssss for Hive?

Yes, I promise Hissy but it'l be slower this time.

Slower than the last 400 daysssss?

Ah thats not fair Hissy, we did 149 models in that time and washed and based them, which our readers know I loathe

Well jussst get going. Whats in unmarked box Ratiusss?

Thats a surprise Hissy.....

Hi by the ways guys

**SBG**

Ooh, winged monstrosities! Looking forward to seeing what you do with these!

**xXWeaponPrimeXx**

I love surprises!!!!

**alabamaheretic**

surprises and flying things i think we need a party

**Ratius**

Everyone over to Hissys Hive right now!

Yesss readerssss, party in here.....lots of digestion poolssss for you....

Hissy! Stop that right now!

hehehehe

**alabamaheretic**

ill bring the hellfire rounds

**Ratius**

LETS ROCKKKKKKKKKKK!

**deadmeat85**

Against the Hive.......

**Ratius**

So readers, Hissy heard Ratiussss went to a tournament recently but did not bring the Hive. Imagine all that biomasss, what readersss think of that?

I see you Ratiusss, come out from under bed, now.

Oh hi everyone.

So Ratiussss.....

Erm dont worry Hissy, I didnt do very well at the tournament so you missed nothing.

Except tasty biomasssessss

Sorry Hissy.
But I did get these guys started into, 30 termagants and 3 ripper swarms.

Didnt we do all these guys before Hissy?

Silence! More cannon fodder alwayssss good for Hive.

I suppose. Look at the size of the Harpys wings Hissy, shes going to be huge!

Get Hissy some wings Ratiussss.

Very hard to Hissy since you're metal and old.

Metal and what? *thump*

**EyeamRai**

Maybe Hissy can use some biomass and reinvent herself in a body with big wings..?

**Ratius**

Thats a good idea Eye!

And reminds me I totally forgot to post our latest addition to the Hive.
Grrrr, stay tuned peeps!

Automatically Appended Next Post:
Look Hissy!

The Hive took on some tasty IG tonight at dusk.

Oh IG so ssssoft and squissshy.

Not this army Hissy.

We lost.

WHAT?!

Erm, you werent playing Hissy, we sent in the big heavies, like Tervi mother and Tyrannofexes and Carnis!

WHAT?!

I know, thats why it went badly. it was 7:9 for the IG. They killed too many heavies in big guns mission.

Grrrrr Ratiusss, Hissy so annoyed.

Better go peeps

**Nevelon**

Better hurry up and paint what you have, tons of new bugs on the horizon. You know Hissy want’s some new friends…

<loads the helfire rounds and slowly backs away>

**TheDraconicLord**

I will love to see how Hissy reacts once she finds out the new toys the Hive will have available soon enough.

**Ratius**

Hissy, I have a little surprise for you tonight. Are you ready?

Not in mood Ratiussss.

Are you sure Hissy? I havent let you down yet, have I?

Ssssure Ratius, sssurprise poor, tired Hissy if you like.

Oh dear Hissy, you not feeling well?

Tired Ratiussss, not in mood for trivialitiessss

Oooooooooooooook

.....

Hissy, Hissy are you there?

Hissy?

He gorgeoussssss

Yesssss gorgeousssss

WTF, who is this?

Hissy?

Quiet nassssty Sisterssss, Hissy stomp you good and flat!

So ssstrong and powerful

Yesss, I go greet him to Hive.....

NO. NO NO NO NO NO, HISSY GREET HIM, HISSY IS QUEEN OF HIVE. HISSY GREET FIRSSSST.

For the love of the Emperor divine, what was that? I think the Hive just imploded.

Anyway the guy above is the old metal Hive Tyrant, I think hes from 4th edition iirc. I intend to proxy him as the Swarmlord

I hope to be able to chop off his venom cannon arm and do up a couple more sword arms for him. He needs to be stripped by the way, I dont even recall under coating him.
Its actually a very cool model, quite detailed and looks seriously mean.

GET AWAY FROM THAT ENTRANCE SISTERSSSSSS

Oh dear, it looks like Hissy has a few suitors for old Swarmys attention. I hope he knows what hes let himself in for

Anyway a few more wip shots, I got some ripper swarms done from an old Termagant box I had, cute little models, not sure I'll ever use them but they were technically free so.

Im currently working on another 30 Termagants to simply get them out of the way and will then jump into the Crone/Harpy kit.

As always, thanks for reading viewers, I doubt Hissy will say bye this evening.

HISSY SMASSSSH YOU FLAT, YOU FILTHY BROODSORESSS!!!

**Ratius**

Look Hissy a few more Broodlings done for you!

Hissy?

Greetings

Eh hello, who is this?

Hi, this is Swarmy the Swarmlord.

Oh hi, Swarmy I was expecting Hissy.

Hissy is not about today, Swarmy is happy.

Why so Swarmy? Whats been up?

Hissy and Sisters have been at Swarmys chamber door for days now, screaming and fighting, Swarmy has no sleep.

Oh dear Swarmy, thats not good, I think they just want to meet you.

Swarmy just wants to fight ultrasmurfs though, kill and eat, kill and eat.

I see, no interest in meeting the Sisters huh?

No.

Well the best thing to do Swarmy would be to meet them but remind them of the purpose of the Hive and what its goal is, total Galactic domination. But play it cool, they're 3 seriously bad sisters.

Ok, thanks Ratius, I will try that.

Good luck old boy.

Tomorrow I'll have an update on the Crone and hopefully an update from Swarmy, if hes still conscious.....

**TheDraconicLord**

Oh dear, the Sisters are gonna eat him alive. (Maybe that's he wants? *wink wink*)

The production line seems to be working but I want to see that Crone

**Mad..**

Just came across this blog... have caught up and read the whole thing..

Very entertaining with Hissy and the crew being involved.

I like your paint scheme, nice and simple and looks fantastic in the full army shots you have got in here.

Great work, I have subscribed to this thread now!

**barnowl**

Loving the blog. I had a lot of trouble with the feathering my self, till I gave up and got an ultra fine pointed to do it with and used minimal paint on the brush. Slow but seems to work.

**Ratius**

Thanks Barnowl and Mad, much appreciated

And especially for you TD.....

Grey

Not so grey. Shes still a work in progress to be honest, the underside needs to be done and I need to touch it up a bit but the basic scheme is there. Lovely model by the way.

What on Earth was that?!

Oh its you Hissy, thanks for demolishing my bedroom door.

Silence Ratiussss, Hissy in no mood for your nonsssssence.

Hissy sick of this Hive and isss leaving.

What?!

Hissy sick of this Hive and isss leaving.

Oh thank the Emperor, byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Not funny Ratiusss, Hissy stomp you flat just like Sistersss.

Ah-ha, so thats what is going on. Sisters, you and Swarmy eh? Cant you work something out and all get along?

NO, NO NO NO NO. Hissy lasst three nights been outside Swarmys chamberssss guarding them from foul Sistersss.

Yes so I heard, Swarmy a very sensitive chap Hissy, you have to be nice to him.

HISSY IS NICE. SISTERSSS ARE NOT NICE.

Ok, ok. Well look we're not going to resolve this here, lets get a rest and see tomorrow. did you like Crony by the way?

Crony nice.

Ok night night.

**EyeamRai**

Hissy is very nice!!

So is the crone!

I enjoy this blog very much.

**TheDraconicLord**

Hmmm, hmmmm, hmmm now that's a sexy Crone. Beautiful looking model, Hissy better be proud.

HISSY, get over your pouting! It doesn't suit you, oh mighty empress of the Hive

**Ratius**

Thanks Eyeraim and TDL, glad you like it

So here she is, the Vector of Violence, the Swooper of Silence, the Shut up Ratiusss and show Croney

Side and underbelly

Main carapace

Tentaclid

Underbelly

Very happy with how she came out to be honest, was a great model to paint, I most definitely prefer the large surface area models and bigger details pieces

So Hissy you like?

Quite nice Ratiusss, Hissy going to get Croney to Vector Strike Sistersss tonight.

Oh thats not still going on Hissy is it?

No not really. Lassst night Hissy got Mawzy the Mawloc to dance and entertain the Hive. Mawzy so awkward whole Hive was funny over it.
Whilssst Sisters funny, Hissy visit Swarmy and agree a feeding pact with him.

So Hissy and Swarmy just good friends.

Oh thats great to hear Hissy, Im glad!

Friends for now. Swarmy get out of line and or talk to Sistersss and Hissy boot him out airlock.

Ok we'll leave it there so!
