This guy was a lot of fun, I really liked the Carnifex model, but I wasn't really all that happy with the hunched over pose. After a bit of rearranging, and some other modification, we have the big bug: LOTS more pictures in the gallery here: And one more to show scale:

Man that paint scheme is eerily similar to my Hive Fleet.
Really, really nice paint job IMO but I do have to say that the model doesn't look at all like a Hive Tyrant but rather just a Carnifex standing up.
Reversing the back carapace just looks wrong to me and there is nothing besides the Lash Whip/Boneword that even attempts to note the model as a Hive Tyrant.
Still kudos for the great effort and the fantastic paint job!

Sweet model! Paint job is awesome. Good for you for making something a little different. Who cares if it does not look like the GW Tyrant, there are enough of those as it is. Personally, I think the Bone sword and Lash Whip make it pretty obvious what it is.
I would love to switch my heavy, easy to break, metal Tyrants to plastic... one day...

Pin the parts of the Tyrant together that you commonly get breaks at...it'll really help

I did that once with one of my 'Fexes. The one I made did look exactly like a Hive Tyrant, so I quickly tore it apart and rebuilt it as a normal one. I've still got a couple of unbuilt 'Fexes waiting for attention, so one of them will end up looking like that (they're so TALL!), but as a 'Fex I don't like 'em like that. BYE

I dont like it, but tat is the choice of head and weapon pose, not the conversion or paintjob, both of which are excellent.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.
