Hi every one !

It was a moment that the desire to paint something colorful tickles me, something swarming, ill-tempered and full of claws so...

I think i'll use that for colour scheme :

I've already started working on bio titan scratched with 40k bits:

Hierophant:

Hydraphant:

i think the second one will get smaller front leg...

Cool interpretation! They look suitably stompy! I especially like the heads + mouths you used.

Hmmm.... Oversized limbs on smaller bodies really works for Tyranids here.... Inspirational.

I think the new 40k plastic Tyranid parts are great for this kind of titan project.

It's looking very promising! Also, that looks like a good haul of Tyranid proxies, will be great to see where you take them. Will you use your urban bases the same as your Sisters of Battle or perhaps something else?

Could you do a parts breakdown for which bits you used for which Titan / war machine?

Tyranids are still a slightly difficult list to get all the right beasts for, even with the available proxies.

Heyho, first of all, great to see some Tyranids coming in again. Then some constructive feedback you might consider or ignore as it pleases you. The parts you chose for your monstrous creatures and bio titans are great, though I would suggest readjusting the position of the legs slightly. Take a look at the way crabs and insects move. Though sometimes legs in movement tend to be positioned like those on your titans, some need to hold the entire weight of the creature. Assuming the sheer height and mass of your titans, the legs would just break in the middle due to too much pressure. Repositioning some into a slightly more strait position should make them look more realistic.

Anyway: Keep it up - looks promising :)
