I especially like Spawn of Whatsit the Broodlord, the colours came out really well on him. Even your humble Hormagaunts look satisfying in large groups ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726171/9372903.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726171/9372903.page GMT Hive Fleet Turnip (Tyranids)

Ahhhhhh, Think you may have just solved a problem, yes they are missing something, did wonder on trying to make them look "wet", but don't want to do just a spray gloss varnish.

Think you may have hit it for the claws and teeth though, just 'something' without it being too much.

Do like the Raveners, there are a pair of metal ones here (somewhere) to go with them but I like the plastic ones more.

There is one of the brainy ones around somewhere but don't have a picture of him.


Main purpose was to have them done decently fast for a horde army, but in a way I can go back later.

First idea was two yellow stripes, either side of the ridge on the armour, may be a bit much but a muted yellow may work. have to have a think]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726171/9373228.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726171/9373228.page GMT Hive Fleet Turnip (Tyranids) http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726171/9373248.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726171/9373248.page GMT Hive Fleet Turnip (Tyranids) Also nice highlighting...I like the whole colour scheme!
