So... Are you going to make the Genestealers "Crabs"?

hmm

When I get off work i'll glue some genestealer bits to a shell.

And..

Ball Chin Boy?

Massive Breast cannons on the Harpy, methinks?

I'm so utterly, utterly confused...

Great modeling... its just some of this stuff is a little disturbing...

For the people that seem to be confused, or not sure whats going on, I say to you:

Yes you do. You know exactly what that is.

I'm not entirely sure I shouldn't make this a wip blog, because I've done some work on these, lovingly teasing the paint and washes into the naughty recesses. There are also some good puns to harvest, succulent fruit ripe for the picking. We'll get to those.

Now, obviously the army as A hole (originally, there really was a w there at some point) is supposed to be distracting, even offensive to some. Thats kinda what I'm aiming for.
The Gobblegooklegrampypant gameplan these days seems to be target saturation, forcing opponents to choose between shooting down several t6 groups, knowing they will likely only fully kill one or two. My goal is to provide extra confusion there. Do you shoot the adrenal trygon within charge of the sternguard, or do you shoot the venomthrope that might be a problem next turn?

Well, ordinarily you'd go for both, but really focus on downing the trygon. If you're gonna be assaulted, you know assaulting into the venomthropes bubble is not something you need to worry about. At least right now.
But what if its a censorshipthrope? What if it has picked up a converted lascannon guardsman and is
(Separating out and explaining the pun for easy digestion. It will still be funny.)
Going to be a jerque about the bunghole.
(That is, he is going to inspect the manifest of the hole bored in the guardsmans liquid-tight barrel. Or rough nightmare tentacle love. See? Thats a doubly penetrating double entendre. There are just fractal word jokes spiraling downward there. The best for you, my Dakkanauts.)

But anyway, yeah. That venomthrope is horrible and its T4. Lets give it a blast from a lascannon because we hate it so much.

So your tactics are to make the targets thats are normally ignored high priority to the opponent because of how offensive they are...

Thats... um... an interesting stratagy

Pics of the cemsprshipthrope or it didnt happen!

Yeah, I kinda want to see the Venomthrope now, no matter how vile or disgusting it is. Because once you see Drop Pod goatse, there is no going back.

Oh god. I'd once considered a Deamon army like this, a whole tableful of Pink Horrors rushing backwards towards the enemy. Figured I'd never lose a tournament.


...considered was the key word here. I take my hat off to you sir, you win.

Chowder and Happy - Internet is still spotty- pic uploading won't happen for a little bit. I'm not about to go to starbucks with my laptop to upload Tyranid porn for you. I'm just not. Its like Jesus- Its enough that you believe in it, for now. I am making genestealer crabs though.

Aramus- Its rough, because for an army like this, every model has to have a "safe" counterpart for normal play usage.

As horrible as I may be, I'm still not at the level of being the guy that will whip out a bunch of models with cocks on them around kids.

Coming soon:
*A custom warrior head mounted on an old deathspitter = Tyranids with bewbs.
*Blood Angel "Two Corbulos one cup"
*Genestealers + Tygon toxin sacs = Chromosome Snatchers
*Pics of the censorshipthrope
*A carnifex with a special puppet

That's sigline material right there.

Ok what the hell is this.

My septum burns so bad from laughing soda out my nose on the pic of the old tyrant guard...

Seriously? Hips thrust forward with a giant dong. I know its metal, but that face just went from angry to oddly happy.

Are you... GOD???

He sure is!
Not only that, but this thing gets held in the backroom of a GW store from time to time. As in, people are ok with this sort of thing happening in real life as well.
So, wrap your mind around THAT.

Oh!
Almost forgot, soon there will be rippers with strap on dildos on their heads, as well.

And believe it or not, thats going out at the same time as the genestealer crab fanservice, because thats something that was actually REQUESTED by PM.

You guys are gross and I love it.

I know it sounds greedy, but do we get to see this stuff painted?

Ok! Updates!

To quote murderface, "Thats a dildo... a strap on dildo."

Look at how happy he is!

Ne... nevermind.

These new ones are... interesting.

A sitting down carnifex gets an easy cover save! Only 3 Hormogaunts do it!

This guardsman (converted from a Star wars rebel mini) has made an embarassment of himself.

He stands in a urine puddle, and has also browned himself. Tasteful.

This ripper was basecoated in dheneb stone.

The rest of the red is all human blood from whenever a xacto blade goes wild. Most of it is even mine!

Ummmmm... No.

I would probably... I dont know what I would do if I saw you in person...

Sweet Jesus.......

What do you do if you modeled a tyrant guard with the legs all screwed up?

Shove a vintage metal sergeant under there and make him look like hell, thats what. That arm is goin' nowhere!

Freakin no-where.

Hmmm what else now that I've got the net again..... uhhhh


How about a demon? You like those?
Also a shot of my painting tray for today. Those guys are all getting dheneb stone claws and hooves! 40 genestealers and 30 Hgaunts will be the worst of it.

Tomorrow? Glowing orange eyes.

Oh! and magnetizing these ball sacks!

Actually? Yes.
I'm not sure either. Never met you, but I'm pretty open minded and easy to meet. I doubt there would be any problems.
Most likely? You'd say wow those are some... (here you would struggle for a suitable adjective) models you have there.
Unlikely? You'd be directly offensive to my face.
Not at all likely? You even threaten to smash one.
Never going to happen ever? You actually do, and I bill you for it. I charge you the full value of my time put into the model, at a rate per hour that I deem reasonable.

And hey, I don't work cheap.
I am a law wrangler after all.

There is of course the physical confrontation avenue, but we won't discuss that, because we're all civilized here, right?

Forgot one.

What do you do with devourers that you've cut the cone end off of?
You trim it down and let the nids' "Social Finger" fly!
