i've only ever found 1 decent one and it was on some obscure german website years ago.... made its way quickly into my guard army which i promptly sold.....

The Imperium of Man is able to traverse the Warp with difficulty when their Emperor concentrates from his golden life support machine and lights the way. Unfortunately, because the Emperor has the attention span of the average 5-year-old Pokemon fanboy, this means that many an unfortunate Imperial ship has had the WTF WHERE'D THE LIGHTS GO experience, which in the Warp is invariably fatal. |

Can't tell for others but we propably haven't done them because I'm goddamn perfectionist. I wouldn't release something that IMO won't work. So in short the sculpt would have to be bloody good (checked  ) and we would have to release other parts for female minis (where would you stick female head - there are no proper torsos, legs etc, and that's the real issue).
I've added conquistador heads to the webstore:

Nice heads - I can't use with any of my armies but they are very well executed.

I just got my steam knight heads, 'power' weapons, and large shoulder pads from you guys. And once again I love it all!
My only request is maybe a new armored helmet design for humans in 'heavy' armor. Maybe a head that isn't quite so tall so it will fit in 'heavy armor' better.

My last order they threw in some sample heads. It worked, cuz I'm buying some right now in another browser window.
I would seriously love some good female heads. Unfortunately, the best female heads on the market are all Elves/Eldar/Dark Eldar and GW makes them....

Ok, I just ordered a Confession Machine (looks brilliant, btw. Been drooling over it for the longest time) some commando heads and some Gothic Backpacks. I'm stoked.

The savage orc heads are great, and perfect for 40K Snakebite armies too - the only shame is there's only 5 different heads.

July apears to be really good month - lots of projects that were taking a tad long got finished to my surprise. This means that lots of cool packages reached the workshop .
Here's one of the items from the talented hands of Maxime Pastourel that I can share:
To make it better for gaming I want to cast the biowhips in metal. This will delay the release date but IMO will result in better piece. Let me know what do you think .

Not a big fan of the biowhips, they'll get bent or knocked off too easily during play or transport, but I like the main pod a lot.

It's a nice Spore model and the idea of metal whips is a must due to transport issues.
First impression is that having only one side carapaced is a bit illogical for a device coming from orbit. But I might switch the whips for some scrythed talons so that it looks like a grounded flyer

thx folks
@Clang: that's why I'm thinking about casting biowhips in metal - this should get rid of those issues .
@Kroothawk: while I understand your comment I have to admit I think that putting too much logic into something that should simply look cool won't do good when you design sf stuff . Especially when possible explanations are not so difficult to come up with .
You know, I'm a huge fun of cool design vs "realism" - it's fiction after all, even if backed up by "science" .

It's not realism, it's believability.
Either way, it's one of the best Mycetic Spores I've seen. It actually looks like it fits with the Tyranids.
How large is it?
The price will be the deal maker or breaker.

Yup, best pod design I've seen so far.
Although I'm not seeing any obvious sort of egress... How does everyone get out?

Arguably they could just eat their way out through the pod's carapace, which seems to suit nid fluff, and the pod has effectively sacrificed itself by landing anyway...

That is a nice pod, and Clang's description of it having sacrificed itself by landing sums it up perfectly. It doesn't just look like a pod, but rather a big fat mommy-Nid that crashed headfirst into the ground in her eagerness to deliver her baby-Nid payload.
