I'm toying with using the privateer press model Angelius (from hordes, legion of everblight) http://privateerpress.com/hordes/gallery/legion-of-everblight/warbeasts/angelius as my model of the Parasite of Montrax but im unsure about the scale of the thing, is it the right size? or would this be a better stand in : http://privateerpress.com/hordes/gallery/legion-of-everblight/warbeasts/seraph although i dont like the legs on it, the angelius looks more like it can squeeze through small spaces. I also like how tyranidy the models look, also how unlike anything else in the nid codex they look like (except maybe a future hydra model) thoughts peoples? are the models too big, not niddy enough etc etc? thanks in advance!

Well here's an Idea. How about using the Red Terror?

I got my hands on one a while ago and I started to convert him for a Doom of Malan'tai. It's an awesome figure you can't use any other way in a standard game so converting it should do it justice .

RT has a very long tail that can be modeled very easily, you just need to redo the torso a little bit, add the wings and some other bits and youre ready to go!

I was looking at the Angelius model to use as the Parasite too. All I was going to do was swap the two lower sets of wings for claws and talons.
