In your thread, trolling.

I like where you were going with the scheme, the colors are a bit intense for my taste though.

It really stands out against the mostly organic colors of other more common nid armies.

Sihamoni takes great pride in the league he helped create, as was conveyed in his recent advertising campaign for the CMFL that stated his midgets will "... take on anything; man, beast, or machine."

Not bad. Maybe try to get the colors to blend together just a bit if you paint any new stuff.

The painting technique is good. The color choices leaves a lot to be desired, though. In design, the elements should go well. In this case, they clash: there is no focal point. The green and black is too busy and the blue is too intense, so the shape of the Tyranid as a whole (which is also detailed) is obscured. Every element is competing for attention. I'm sure it needed a lot of patience and skill to pull this off, it's just that the colors don't work.

Violence is not the answer, but it's always a good guess. |

I love the idea, but TBH I would have swapped the colours about. The intense blue would look great striped, with green weapons. But my opinion aside, blindingly good

AAH! MY EYES! THEY BURN!
Looks really good. I like the scheme, but(and this might be the pics fault) the green is really bright. I'd hit it with watered down Badab Black to bring it down a little.
The blue guns look a little flat too. I'd hit them with watered down Asurman Blue(the blue wash's name?).
Looks really good though.
