Figured it was okay to post GSC painting here. Bout the only thing I'm proud of with my armies ^_^.

So name is pending but I wanted my GSC to at least be associated with my Nid army in name if not in color (I was tired of painting green/red and wanted a new color scheme). Don't have a lot painted yet but I'm plowing through them. My phone is doing weird things to make a "high def" picture and in the future I may just use my camera, but hope you enjoy.

I really like the little flashes of flourescent green, especially on your Primus.

Thanks! I'm genuinely surprised it turned out so well. I had my doubts because it was essentially an amalgamation of different things I liked about all different color schemes. My biggest concern being the acolyte skin being too similar to the armor.

These are some pro looking Cultists, the extra colors go far and above in adding a feeling of depth from the paining that is often lost on humanoids. You do a great job adding a lot of colors and tying them all together.

There is a cancer eating at the Imperium. With each decade it advances deeper, leaving drained, dead worlds in its wake. This horror, this abomination, has thought and purpose which functions on an unimaginable, galactic scale and all we can do is try to stop the swarms of bio-engineered monsters it unleashes upon us almost by instinct. We have given the horror a name to salve our fears; we call it the Tyranid race, but if it is aware of us at all it must know us only as Prey.

I appreciate that, because a part of me (while I really enjoy the end product) feels like I picked the parts from other concepts and created an amalgamation of them all haha
