Ex nihilo

Best looking Tyranid I've ever made. Gonna put it on a 60mm base and use it like a tervigon.

Warrior torso with a modified genestealer acid maw head.
The upper arms are lighter melted genestealer small arms, lower arms are Trygon spike bits, modeled sexily.
Legs are Trygon jaw claws, slightly crossed. The thighs have that nice hammy bulge from the joining ball, giving it a comically wide hip stance. (And horrifying upskirt)
The body part of the "Dress" is all made out of various dreadnought purity seals. the long flowing part afterward is chopped off a nightbringer C'Tan.
Microphone/flower thing is made of the shortest mawloc tube bit and the acid sac from the genestealer head.

I'm going to paint the body like the skin tones of the rest of my army (see below for comparison shots or see my gallery).
The dress is color is up to you, based on three ideas.

Tyranids attract more tang than an astronaut convention.
Success is a little more than I already have. Every day, Forever. Until you have nothing.
As Galactic ruler, I promise to be tough but fair. But tough.
