Tyranid Battleforce & Hive Tyrant Commission

 Well I don't get to paint Tyranids very often so when I was asked to a commission for them , I jumped right on it. I had painted some Tyranids last year for the same person, those models were part of the new Space Hulk set that GW released. So he wanted them painted in the same purple that they were with the only difference being that the armor plates be painted red. With some of  the inner parts painted in a glowing green.

The models were only to be painted table top quality. Other then Hive Tyrant which I went a little further on. As for the basic battleforce units there were basecoated purple then washed with leviathan purple. After that I painted all the inner parts Knarloc Green and then went back over them with Scorpion Green, followed by a Thraka Green Wash. After that I painted the armor plates Mechrite Red then went back over them with Blood Red and Blazing Orange, followed by a

Project Genestealers

Here are some Genestealers a customer requested me to paint. He wanted each set of genestealers painted bronze and silver and bases on a 2 pence piece. I always enjoy painting metallics and thought after painting both these batches that it would look real cool to have a metallic nid army. In both sets of genestealers there are one with flaming read eyes and one with glowing blue eyes and the other 2 have piercing black eyes. Helps add some variety to each unit. I don't know exactly what the models will be used for but hope they are put to good use. Feel free to leave your comments and questions.
