I run out of superlatives looking at your stuff.
It's brilliant. I much prefer the Scything Talons to the Wings, but even the Wings are brilliant.

Awesome work, the army on display diorama is really cool though I think your paint work on the carapace seems makes the army look really unique, it almost reminds of a digital camo, very cool!
My only question now is, what’s next?!

“Victory is not an abstract concept, it is the equation that sits at the heart of strategy. Victory is the will to expend lives and munitions in attack, overmatching the defenders' reserves of manpower and ordnance. As long as my Iron Warriors are willing to pay any price in pursuit of victory, we shall never be defeated.”

Me too, but I had the wings, so I figured it'd be a shame not to magnetize/paint them too. I'm not really about that flyrant+devourers meta.

This weekend should be another brood of 12 Termagants, which is all I need to hit 1000pts. Then it's time for some army shots, then probably a brief hiatus while I work on terrain for a little while.

Really cool work. Love the army and I really love the board. I've been wanting to do a beach themed battle board for ages and I'd love some tips on how you did the watcher sand etc... (Those trees are cool too!)

The deep water was built up with Envirotex Lite with a dash of VMC Blue Green, then the top layer (waves) and shallow water were done with Woodland Scenics Water Effects, with a drybrush of white on the waves.
The sand is just sand from a hardware store, painted with Liquitex Parchment, drybrushed Liquitex Titanium White, washed with heavily thinned Liquitex Raw Umber. It's a surprisingly close match for the completely different process I use on my bases.

Love seeing the updates to your force man, such a beautiful scheme. Your work here and on YT is one of the motivators that got me finally working on a Tyranid force of my own that I've had bouncing around in my head for a couple years.
Love the work on your Tyrant and warriors especially. The magnetization is really smart and these latest claws addition to the tyrant makes him even more menacing than even the scything talons version.
Always looking forward to seeing what you do next!

Thanks all for the kind words.

It's actually an old Forge World Hive Tyrant, which was mostly based on the 3rd Ed design but with some alterations (different head crest, addition of back vents, of course lots more detail overall), and more importantly is about 50% larger. The 3rd Ed Hive Tyrant is smaller than the current one, to the point where I often see people run it as a Prime, but the FW Tyrant is actually significantly taller than the current model.

As much as the big guys are cool, those Ripper Swarms look like they might have taken as long as the whole rest of the army put together Just all round great work.

Does who come with this head? If you mean the Carnifex, yes, the head with the extra eyes and antennae represents the Enhanced Senses biomorph.
