But IMO just paint it whatever way you think looks best.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729155/9436360.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729155/9436360.page GMT Tyranid Hive Fleet Behemoth... wing color?

In the codex they're painted a fleshy sort of colour. So I guess that's the "official" scheme.

Where in the codex exactly? The only place I see any picture of a Hive Fleet Behemoth flyer in the Tyranid codex is the artwork for the Harpy, and it has red wings. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Thanks

I have the epub digital codex which makes referencing a location a nightmare In the section called "Colours of the Hive Fleets", the first picture is a Behemoth swarm fighting some Ultramarines with a Flyrant and a couple of Harpies/Crones/whatever. Later in the same section after some pictures of some Hormagaunts there's another Behemoth Flyrant, then later on there's a picture of 3 Gargoyles, one of which is a Behemoth.

That said, I think the flesh tone offsets the red really nicely and IMO the official colour looks better than most other Behemoth variants I've seen.

EDIT: I was flicking through my 5th edition Tyranid codex and noticed on page 73 the Behemoth Gargoyles actually have a darker brown for their wing membranes. So I guess GW changed from the brown to the flesh colour at some point when the Flyrant and Harpy/Crone models were released (I don't think the Flyrant and Harpy/Crone models existed when the 5th edition codex came out). They probably changed because the fleshy tone gives more contrast so makes the flyer models stand out more.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729155/9438731.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729155/9438731.page GMT Re:Tyranid Hive Fleet Behemoth... wing color? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729155/9441694.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729155/9441694.page GMT
