i. Hate. METAL!! 
Because i loathe metal to the extent i do i decided to convert a plastic carnifex into a hive tyrant, which not only saved me £5, but spared me from a solid lump of metal to carry round and game with.
Overview:
front view:
and a Tri-sythe tail to mark it out as a more powerful beast, and to make the tail different to a normal carnifex
the middle section. im rather pleased with this EDIT: CURSES! there is always a blob of paint somewhere i dont want it to be
a devourer cannon. i didnt want a normal devourer stuck in there, it looked so puny and out of place, so i modified it to fit onto the end of a deathspitter
one of the talons. the standard grey was very boring, so i applied a lightning effect to it. the effect looks very good from a distance. the same effect has been put on the head crest as well.
he is not fully finished yet, as i need to touch him up a bit. the base needs to be painted, and the arms are blu-tacked in as im not too sure on what i want the position to be.
this baby is also going in the LGS window, along with my harpy today. ill get some photos of them there at some point.
comments welcome
(the ironic thing is almost every piece of this ended up being pinned together with superglue and metal, so sort of defied the point of a model using only liquid poly)
