So, like most Tyranid players, I would really like to add a couple Bio-Titans to my horde. However, like many Tyranid players, I just can't afford any. But, I can afford a couple Tyranofex's. So I got this idea that I could convert one or two into the bio-titan, as they look almost as big as a Hierodrule. What I am wondering is what kind of dimensions the different Bio-Titans have, namely:

Length (excluding tail/weapons)
Thickness (Ventral side to dorsal at thickest point)
Width of body

I figure from here I would be able to work out the rest as needed, as these would allow me to get the conversion in the right general area size-wise, and I could just use artistic licence for the rest.

Cheers eh!

Ill be honest, the terv/fex kit really is still tons smaller than the bio-titans.
Just have a flick through the pics on FW with the scale shots next to fire warriors.

Height wise, i would guess the titan is 2.5 - 3x the height.
Length is about double.
Width im not sure about, but the legs on the titan spread alot so give it a massive coverage.


Also, the way the tyranno kit has been designed, you cant really extend the body in any way shape or form without literally cutting it into smaller sections and spacing it, which will still be miles out of scale.
