Would like feedback on the effects on the carapace mainly, as im fine tuning my painting for my main diorama in progress

Thanks

Dan

Looks fantastic to me. I especially like the gloss on the carapace (but I'm a bit biased, I have the same effect on all my bugs...)

I also like the little gun eyeball

**Sturmtruppe**

Yeah, I agree, the gloss really looks good in my opinion. I also like the spots.

**Slushosaur**

Gives them a really nice H.R Giger Alien feel! you can prectically hear them slither across the battlefield! ^_^

**Element206**

Excellent work. Its brooding, sinister, and has a nice glossy finish to it. I agree about the glossy finish, it really gives tyranids a totally different dynamic. Nice color choices and real nice paint work.

**Reanimator**

Speckles near the armour/skin joins look very organic- nice!

**scotty kahn**

Nicely done. The slimey carapace is so very fitting for these guys.

**greenskin lynn**

**D.Smith**
