DinoCop´s High Hive Fleet Executioner

[DinoCop]

Hi,

I´ve decided I´ll make my own threat so I can just throw my creations in here and not to spread them wastly across the forum.

I´ll be posting here ideas, sketches, artworks, and stuff like that of my Tyranid army. Conversion I work on and stuff like that.


Let´s start with my latest Monster Tyrranofex (acid spray)

PROLOG

Few weeks ago I ordered my first ever Tyrant, Tervigon, Harpy, Haruspex kits. And I had known I would make something out of them that does not fit the kits´ cover. I´ve already put everything to use. But there was some leftovers - Harpy´s torso and Tervigon´s tail. I wasn´t sure what to make of this. The Harpy´s torso quite don´t match the ground physiology of other Tyranid Monsters. But as I was playing around with pieces I put something together.



Concepts and Artwork:

Looks a little bulky for the size if its legs but is insanely cool. You are a legend among men for your off the wall kit bashes- i love how you make the army your own and dont stick to the norm.

[gigasnail]

That is one nasty (please do not swear). I approve.

This is one if those times that I wish I had a better vocabulary, because I can't come up with an adequate way to describe how impressed I am. Not only the model but sketches from the ground up. Well done sir.

If you are looking for some big words, I believe 'epitome of creative excellence' would be suitable> This lloks great, and I have since come to grips with your previous reasoning behind the extra limbs, higher-level tyranid life-forms and such. this gonna be a counts-as tyrannofex?

[DinoCop]

Ok, so here´s painted Tyrranofex - Yes, you were right, Gman. It is Tyrranofex (Acidoffex - I must come up with some unique name for him yet).

I try to use more technique on him with watering black (similar to black wash).

This creature was developed / created / evolutionized to heavily forested areas and to scour destroyed cities. He towers above trees and ruins and his double acid (Acid Spray and Throrax) flame punishes every fool brave enough to get close to this Monstrosity.

Great job

*Jaw slams into floor* WOW! absolutely stunning! well done!

[DinoCop]

This time there was no concept or higher idea. I was just messing with several pieces and I think it come out quite nicely.

EXOCRINE

Most noticable things are the Head (Hive Crone), Supporting talons (Tervigon´s) and extended chimmneys (Tervigon´s).
The head for some reason reminds me of Godzilla.

[seethe]

Heh nice job. I think that head looks much better than the little grinning one. Also cool how it is obviously different but not so much to distract from what it is

[gigasnail]

see? simple head swap and exocrine is baller. i dig the legs and extended chimneys as well.

well done, A+.

Hi Hive

HIVE CRONE - Flying Fortress

hey, currently I finished basics on my Crone. As you can see he´s based on Tervogon´s body. I shortened his chimneys to give him more aerodynamic shape (Exocine´s).

As you can see he is birthing Tentaclids right from his sacks. Head scythes make Vector Strike S8 as he is slicing through enemies like knife through butter.

Base and finishing touch on paint is in progress.

I love it, all of it.

[monkeychuka]

brilliant conversions. That Tryannofex looks like some sort of horror out of Resident Evil. I like your Exocrine best though. The 'ickle' head and scything talons on the original always looked a bit derpy to me and this is a great kit bash and looks seamless.
