Hey to all you dudes out there,

My choice for the BoB was a easy one and one i hope you all like the look of which are Tyranids

The Reasoning behind choicing them as easy becuase i havent played 40k for a long long time so a new year a new army :) and i rolled a dice for the army and this is what happened :p

The Hoping work to get done in January/Febuary

Previous month's leftover: -
This month's amount: 233pts
Total budget: 233pts

9x Ripper Swarms ( with Tunnel): 108pts
10x Gargoyles : 60pts
1x Lictor : 65pts

Remaining amount to be carried into next month: 17pts

i'd be tempted to sneak in a little Glow in the Dark for the 'sticky' parts, especially on the larger beasties. :P

Nice scheme so far, will be watching with great intrest.

Is that the ripper base from FW? Always thought that captured the idea of rippers better than a base of them, they should be a carpet of beasties after all.

Probably not but after 3 cans of that rank stuff his urine will do!

Can we get some closer pics on a white background please Pyro Pete?

Those are some nice carapaces. I really like the green on black, that was a good choice.
I hope you'll choose to do a little more on the black parts though?

Thanks guys for all the good feedback on the Nids so far a little more progress has been made on them and also i have better pics for all you lot to see them with :)
Kervain @ - Thanks dude and no sadly they dont glow in the dark :P

Tychonaut @ - Thanks glad you like them :)

Nife @ - Thanks dude and the green was easy to do it was Orkhide shade for the thick lines the Knarloc Green inside them for a smaller line and the final highlight was Scorpions Green will do a step by step guide for you if you so wish

Easy E @ - Hell ye thats why i bought 9 of them :D just going to be a pain to paint

Marovian @ - Yes they are the FW ripper bases

the_great_gonzo @ - Here are the pics for you gonzo and how did you guess that correctly ;)

Shortsonfire79 @ - Thanks dude and im not to sure yet about the black :/
