Hey guys!

I've added a newly-completed hierophant to this army article. Please feel free to take a look if you like. I'd be interested to know your comments.

Cheers,
CW

I love the way you organized the article! I also like the paint scheme. Good work.

HAHA thought for the day... gets me every time.

Amazing work. I love the Tervigon. This gives me some much needed inspiration to work on my tiny hive fleet. If you have any words of wisdom by all means please share.

I've added new pics to the army! Check out my capillary towers, Swamlord and Doom of Malan'tai.

Seriuosly, seriously good stuff.
Really love the scheme, subtle but natural. Digestion pools and old FW scenery are great too. Loving Swarmy.
More pics of the titan please.

How on Earth do you use the Pyrovore in the army?

Belated thanks for the positive comments, everyone. I'll try to include a bit more on the hierophant as it's a rare sight outside of Apocalypse games.

As for the pyros, they're a fun-only unit. Most would rather use other units in their army if they're trying for tournament standing. But I'm a fun sort and prefer fun-only games.

Uploaded a different title pic. Thought it was more dramatic.

Added two pics of my new tyranid prime. I went for the subtle approach as the fluff would seem to indicate it's a bit of a challenge to pick a prime out from a brood of normal warriors. The lash whip is a dead giveaway though.

Great stuff, how did you make the Mycetic Spore btw?

The mycetic spore was created using a plaster Easter egg. I glued the two halves together and sawed one end off. I cut the open end to shape. Green stuff was used to make many of the organic parts. Venomthrope bits were used to make the tentacles. After paint was applied, I used Quickshade to finish it.

Glad you like it, btw.

Altered the army list substantially. Comments are welcome. I tried to create something that be somewhat scary and keep the enemy guessing.

Hey guys! Added photos of my recently completed biovores and a new (and much more disgusting looking) mycetic spore. View and enjoy.
