Hey guys just finished my first model for my tyranid army.first model I painted in 4 years.any tips or critiscm wealcome.just need to be based
and sorry camera phone pics

First things first. Welcome to Dakka.

Looks really good. Even more so that you haven't done any painting in a few years. The feathering lines are a bit heavy but I think it works on this one.

Post up more pics as you get them.

Great work for sure, basing always makes a major impact too though

I think it looks nice. Question, is this repeatable over all the figures you will need to make a full army?

Welcome to Dakka.

Looks good, and the scheme/style should allow you to do a lot on the big beasties while being easy to simplify for the smaller ones. Looking forward to more.

Once again; Welcome to Dakka

That's quite an impressive Tyranid, so much so that I can't actually think of any improvements that could be made (aside from the feathering as darefsky mentioned). Well done, looking forward to more!

It looks like a good scheme. Personally, I would like a little more color on the fleshy bits. You can see a little bit of difference with the pink coloring, but it blends in too much with the other flesh.

Hey guys
Just finished my second warrior and based the first 2. WIP on 3rd .
The first warrior was just painted with brushes I then decided to wip out my air brush and do the second 2 together so you will notice a slight difference in overall colouring but not much.
once again its a phone camera so forgive me
C&C welcome
Thanks

You can click on the images to enlarge them.it helps a bit
just remember 2nd model in 4 years
if you like to see some of my others I can upload pics of them if you wish ( necrons and a hordes diorama)
Thanks again

Personally, I think they're terrific. A colour scheme that's all the better for being simple.

Can you run a Venom cannon on a Prime? Or is it a stand-in for one of the biomorphs?

Thanks for comment

As far as I know you cant have a venom cannon on a prime ( I could be wrong , maybe someone could clarify that ) with that being said I will just be using him as a warrior.I only used the prime bits to add a bit diversity to the brood

Both look great!

Both look great

thanks
