Hive Guard Conversion

[maddockala]

So, I decided when I started putting together my Tyranids, that I really didn't like the look of the Hive Guard and the Tyrant Guard compared to the rest of the Tyranid models. So.... I made my own from Warrior parts and Carnifex parts that I had lots of extras of. Anyways, I created a picture tutorial on my blog and thought I might share it with you guys.

I think I did a pretty good job, all around, but if you guys have any questions, comments or concerns, I'd really appreciate some look-sees.

Here's the link:

I like the idea of turning warriors to guards, though I am wondering why you do not like the official hive guard model. I think it looks good. Yours looks good too, though. What did you use to make the impaler cannon?

It's all in the tutorial. I basically used a green stuff equivalent and mashed two guns together.

The reason I don't like the current models is the carapaces don't look 'in line' with the rest of the Tyranid models. So I used Carnifex carapaces instead.
