Subject: Tyranid doom of Malan'tai - scratch built
Here is my scratch built Tyranid Doom of Malan'tai. It is now removed from Codex: Tyranids but may still function as a Neurothrope or even as a Zoanthrope. I tried to resemble the original tyranids icon of an alien serpent almost biting it's tail. Please tell me what you think! For more images, visit my page Nikosworksop.com

You definitely captured the essence of this beast to a T. This model brings back fond memories of desperately trying to gun down this beast before it psyched its way through my whole army back in 5th Edition.

Impressive. To me, the most foreboding characteristic is its lack of dangerous appendages. You just know this thing is harmful and packs a psychic wallop when it doesn't even need physical tools to rip through armies.

Every tyranid has six limbs and I really wanted to make the arms for this monster as tiny as possible to put focus on the brain and psychic capabilities. It really is a huge brain with a tail basically.
