Hello to you all!

This is my first post in this forum and i want to introduce you to muy Hive Fleet, currently un progress but with some things that I can share :)

(a lot of links of wips of the minis in the bottom of the post)

First a photo of the whole thing:

Image

Then, some "interesting" close ups (interesting as I particulary like or I'm proud of).

My Dominatrix (I don't like the GW's one, so I made one myself):


Image

Image

Image

Image

My Trygon:

Image


And some minis that I bought. Greenstuff aside, this is what I love about Epic, (the mini-dioramas in each base)



A duel among commanders

Image

A destroyed Dreadnought in a Carnifex base

Image

Some barricade with dead Gaunts trying to get past it.

Image

A destroyed Land Raider

Image

A dead Carnifex and some Gaunts just leaping forward

Image


I hope you like them!
Cheers!

EDIT:

The Harridan:

Those look fantastic and painted really well. I especially like the Dominatrix and the 30k bits looks perfect.

Thanks to all of you :)

Now I'll post my Blast Markers (and I hope you'll be able to answer a question I have)

As you can see ther ara 1, 2, 3 or 4 dead gaunts en each base and even a Hiver Tirant in some others.
This is ment to represent 1 BE for each gaunt and 5 por the Hive Tirant.

I don't know how it will be to play with them, but I just though that it had to be a little messy to be carring a lot of markers for each formation, and this is a way to solve it...
I still haven't played a game, so ¿what do you guys think?

Blimey I think these are the best Tyranids I've seen for Epic so far! Are the big things Objectives? Looks like a spore chimney or something.

Damnit man I have enough on my plate without wanting to get a Tyranid army, too!

Thanks! ;D ;D
Yes, they are objectives. One is from the Tyranid drop pod, and the other is a Comms relay for 40k that I made myself (you can see it in my blog, it is in spanish, but there are lots of photos :P
http://foroasaltorabioso.blogspot.com.e ... o-wip.html )

I think Tyranids are a cool army to do if you have some 40k leftovers that you can use (as I did with the bigger ones xD)

Really well done! Great Dom, far better then GWs.

The trygon, what was it converted from?

also do you have plans to convery Dactyls or Exorines? Just since they seem to be the hardest to find

Its base is a Gargoyle and a Ripper as head.
I do plan on converting lots of models, if I find a good way to do them, but I'm currently working on a Harridan model :P
