Hi All,

I'm new to this site and wanted to show you sone of my stuff, enjoy

**Jerick**

Wow these are amazing looking, at first I thought the photos had a photoshop filter applied to them, but then I realized it was just your paint scheme. Awesome job man!

**ghosty**

Yeah. I just checked, and I did poo myself.

That cell shading painting style makes them look straight out of a comic book.

Love the army, so damn cool!

**brolthemighty**

That's an amazing looking army! Lovin the Cthulhu look with all the tentacles, and your bases are perfect!

**MannyMcCoconut**

You sir, just blew my mind. Awesome.

**Aduro**

Wow, quite an entrance to the forums!

**Tyranid Horde**

Oh! that is one army for the record books, they are beautiful! The carnies are my favourites, how do you get such an eye-dazzling green? I would love to know please.

**cgage00**

Very nicely painted. They look like they are right off the pages of a comic book. nice bright vivid colors.

**Nephilem**

Wow, these looks awesome. Any chance of a quick breakdown as to how you achieved the chitin (what paints you used etc), or even a little step by step as to how you painted them?

**Depraved**

that is intense! Ive never seen such a great use of brilliant colors and lining before! What did you use to do the lining BTW?

**rodgers37**

wow!!!
How do they look like that, it seems impossible!
Well done

**Aduro**

I've decided I do have one major complaint about these... The pictures aren't hosted on Dakka so I can't give them the 10/10 votes they deserve!

**TheRavenWolf**

WOW!

Your stuff is absolutely amazing, I love the how clean you've got the colours. 10/10

**KaloranSLC**

Holy carp, that's some amazing work! Good show!

**Son Of Horus**

WOW

This is absolutely amazing stuff, I wish i could paint like that.

**Dorion**

Normally I'm not a fan of the "neon nids" approach but this army is great. Did a double take when I saw the first picture, it really jumps out at you, I'd love to see it in real life.

**Destroyer**

Wow I just shat myself.

**The_Savior**

The Hive Mind would be damn well proud.

**tipios**

This is not just stuff, it's fantastic pieces of work!

Wow, the spawning vats have been busy! I'm impressed by:
1. The graphic art stylings
2. The quality of painting across your whole army, including the numberless gaunts/gants
3. The sheer scale of the fleet!

**greenskin lynn**

crazy awesome
one of the few nid armies i've seen that i actually like the look of

**JunkyOrk**

Brilliant work!!!

Its style kinda reminds me of how environments and enemies were colored in Borderlands.

**geordie09**

This is by far, one of the best uses of the colour pink I have ever seen... and the cobo with the green and bone colours is excellent.

Muchos well donos!

**KRUDD**

absolutely stunning dude

**Valkyrie**

Gahh, too bright for my eyes, but awesome nonetheless!

**Kroothawk**

Unusual, weird but fantastic painting scheme!
What colours did you use, as the violet doesn't look like anything from Citadel.

**Captain Jack**

Nicely done, one of the best 'nid armies I've seen

**awb**

Awesome scheme and the purple is outstanding.

**JaxnFury**

A very vivid and well made army. I'm not a fan of the neon or comic book style but I must tip my hat to the level of work and skill put into these, will done sir.

**Clang**

Rilly rilly nice.

I'm keen to hear how you painted all those zillions of lines.
