So I'll post it here and keep it updated.

Tomorrow I'll try to add all the terrain I've done so far!



Starting with the Tyranid Aquila Strongpoint project:



The original model:





I'll start with the big hexagonal piece, so here it is the base of the model:

The walls will look something like this (still lots of work to do):

I hope I will no disapoint you!
While I work on It, I'll share some other Tyranid terrain I've done so far, with links to my blog to see the "step by step".

Today, my Hive nest (take in consideration that the miniatures beside it are from Epic Armageddon... 6mm):

That is amazing!

[abrahamlleida]

Thanks Tylertt!

I've started with the "wall":

Too cool. Your sculpting skills are insane!

I was considering sharing my scenery until I seen this. Now I feel ashamed

[abrahamlleida]

I hope that is no true!
Sharing is the objective of a forum, so share your work with us!

What I do is really simple, but when you put a lot of simple work in a small place it looks like it is something difficult to do. Not at all.
I'm just a noob and have a lot to learn on sculpting

And thanks, I'm glad you like it!

[abrahamlleida]

Well, new update! First phase of the "wall" finished!

As always, hope you like it!

I'm getting a distinct Space Jockey feel from this:

Like it so far, you clearly have the sculpting chops require for the project, so I'd love to see it finished.

This is cool. Watched

Thank guys!

just sharing a quick update!





I'm gonna do this on all the "wall" now, and see how it looks like once it is all cobered. Whish me luck!

Small update with the Base for the "Space Jockey" XDD: foroasaltorabioso.blogspot.com.es/2016/03/tyranid-aquila-strongpoint-project-wip_10.html





I'd bet now on, the posts will be really more interesting as the work will start to shine (if I can say so myself xD)!

What are you making it out of? If the answer is something clay based, how do you plan to harden it?
