Well I finally finished converting my two Carnifex to accompany my Hive Titan Tyrant, but before I finish them up proper, I thought I'd have a laugh.

My web sites down at the mo, so trying to use photobucket in the mean-time.







Oh, and the original image I wanted to enter for the comp, but probably wouyld have broke the rules.

Just need to add a few more finer details (elbow spikes and talons) and I can start painting. Here's a few pics. Still trying to get the hang of new new camera.

More at photobucket.

Is it based on the larger TL era Epic Canifex model? Regardless it looks superb. Awsome detail :cool:

Yes, its the 1st edition carnifex which is the larger one. I just took the body, stuck a 40K Gaunt head to the front, added loads of green stuff for the underbelly and tail, then reused two of the claws with a little green extension.

I've made two to accompany my Hive Titan Tyrant. I also used two different methods to do the back. The first was an all in one, very hard to do, but straight forward. The other I actually built one plate, let it dry and built the next. Easier, but getting the angle right is harder, as you can't go back and alter the first ones.

Well.. after a long break doing another Tyranid model (Tyrgon), I thought I build two more carnifex. Both of these ones have claws. Unfortunately I didnt take any photos of the second. Arms held together with tac if you're wondering :)
