wow that is a lot of Nids, and a very striking colour scheme. Looking very impressive :)

A fate for squats worse than GW saying your entire race has been eaten by tyranids? ;D

Great looking army, looking forward to stomping it with orkeosauruses.

Ok, after more than a year I got the brush out again and painted a few more stands of infantry. First up is a picture of the infantry after the warriors, gaunts and termagants were finished. A few partially painted lictors are also lurking. This represents the first wave of infantry with lictors, genestealers and gargoyles still to come.
Image

Next up is the army shot. As mentioned earlier, credit for the non-infantry painting goes to Inquisitor Earl of Ferrus Workshops
Image

Finally, here is a close up of the infantry massed into broods (noticed some unpainted walls in this pic - still more work to do before stage 2 can commence...).
Image

Just in case these pics do not work here is a link to my user gallery on BGG where they are also on show:

Getting these bugs painted was a bit of a milestone for me as it is the first army that I have painted (it will be 3K+ of infantry once I have finished, maybe 4K) in 20 years of wargaming.

Nice army and lots of stands.

Wish I could get on and finish mine. I had four stands still sitting on my table half painted, but then got side-tracked and started building a Thunderhawk transporter, started and finished two scratch built Stormravens, painted two stands of converted terminators... and yet these four stands still sitting at the side lol.

Genestealers are next. I did a test stand today and they were a hassle to paint so it should take a while.
