Lol! rayninblood umm... maybe you could do a city-like terrain with guey sacs all over the place covering the city buildings and ripping them to shreds. Without using capillary towers you could supply something like Aux did with his tervigons (without all of the claws and gaunts) spread on the city streets. Just a complicated thought ;D

Ok, for something contructive, then.

The Tyranid mod for the original Dawn of War held some pretty awesome Tyranid buildings. Here are pictures of a few. You can surely find more, or better yet, download the mod and play it. This of course requires a copy of Dawn of war...

See those tall things covered in spikes. Those should be Tyranid Bastions I think. This is nice too. i735.photobucket.com/.../TyranidTerrain2-1.jpg [/img]

Some more Shots:

Still needs a bit of painting.

If you want my honest opinion on what would be the best concept art and design for Tyranid Buildings, I can only give you one straight answer:

LOOK AT THE ZERG BUILDINGS OF STARCRAFT 1 AND STARCRAFT 2!!!!!

Honestly, I love the Building superscenic designed.

I think that you should also do something similar to a Space Hulk. Make a large ship or a bunch of smaller ships of twisted metal and Tyranid Biomorphs and have it crashed on a planet. That would make the perfect start, I think.

But, I think that would best be saved for a more Genestealer heavy army. However, I like the concept.
