I'm having trouble uploading my pictures, any suggestions, I'm trying to do it from the gallery and would appreciate any help.

Copy the code in the "forums" box on the right.

As for the model, not bad! Could use some more shading, but it's a sound enough kitbash.

Go to the gallery page, then go to the 'forums' code box under the image on the right hand side, then copy and paste the code from that text box to a new post here..

Should look like this:

Which will make the image appear in the correct size..

Thanks, and i know i need to clean up/do more shading but i figure if i can get the main colors on some models i can go back and clean them up.

Yup, that's a good kitbash. I did some of the same when I did my 'nids. I also added one of the shoulder extra armour pieces to the back of the neck to create a cowl, trimmed down the r/claws to make barbs and added the flesh hook parts.

They look great when done well, but I still prefer the metal one

Edit: Mishung wurd

Well with metals increasing i just cant stand to pay that much for one model..especially when its not that many points in game.

Nice Kitbash
but what tyranid models body is that?
ABH

It's a plain ol' warrior body.

Yep all of it is from the warrior box, except the feeder tendril head from the stealers.

I like it, though it seems a little tame.

To me a lictor should always have a few torn open carcasses surrounding it.

here is a clearer picture, i still need to work on him but i think he's coming along. And on the subject of enemies on the base i generally refrain because i plan against a lot of different armies and i feel unless its a display piece it isn't really thematic.

I'm still playing with the lighting on my camera because I'm having a tough time showing the shading on the flesh that i did with a wash.

What I was mainly trying to say is that it looks pretty clean. Maybe some bloody claws or grime? I'm not trying to sound pushy, to each their own.

Yeah I've thought of perhaps adding some weathering and thats a good point, I also want to do a little more with the base perhaps adding some larger foliage.
