Hello Everyone! I will be posting a blog-thingy for my Nid army!

<==(| The Army I Am Working Towards |)==>

I am working towards a tournament-grade Tyranid army based on Hive Fleet Kraken. Anyway, here's my army list:

HQ

Swarmlord w/ 1 Tyrant Guard (340 pts)

Elites

Doom of Malan'Tai w/ Mycetic Spore (130 pts)
Beast of Devlan (Deathleaper) (140 pts)

Troops

3 Warriors w/ TS, Rending Claws + Scything Talons (105 pts)
8 Genestealers w/ TS (136 pts)
16 Termagants (80 pts)
16 Hormagaunts w/ TS (128 pts)

Fast Attack

Raveners w/ TS, Rending Claws + Scything Talons

Heavy Support

Carnifex w/ TS (170 pts)
Trygon Prime w/ TS (250 pts)

Please give me feedback on this as this is my first fully fleshed-out army!

Well, I've got a battleforce a few weeks ago but I've only put them together far. I've chosen 4 models to showcase: a Termagant, a Genestealer, a Hormagaunt and a Ripper Swarm base. I might take a couple of pics of a Warrior once I've finished one completely. I'll also probably take some pics of the finished battleforce. The images will be coming soon, in fact I'm uploading them to imgur now. Here's the paint scheme I'm going to use for them.

<==(| The Paint Scheme |)==>

Primer: Skull White Spray (GW)
Basecoat: Reikland Flesh-shade (GW)
Carapace: Mephiston Red (GW)
Second coat (body): Seraphim Sepia (GW)
Details (Eyes/TS/Weapon Detail): Flash-Gitz Yellow (GW)

Well, there you go, the paint scheme. Really good for a horde army. It's nice, quick and easy. Images will be coming soon!

Wow. That took longer than expected to post. Anyways... here's the first set of images: PRIMED ONLY!
