Hi there Hivers,
This is where I'll be posting up pics of both my Old Nid army, recently awakened from years in hibernation and begin posting the WIP for my newly evolved broods as the Seeder Fleet updates and adapts after reintegrating back with the greater Hive Mind.
First up, a disclaimer. You are not going to see pro painted stuff here. The older stuff I post up was all painted 10-15 years ago to a basic tabletop standard.
Some of the earliest stuff is pretty ordinary, with no understanding of highlighting, shading or attention to details.
It was intended i would play against a group of friends, but that never eventuated and to this day I've yet to actually play a game of 40k. (My Nids were used as part of a Necromunda campaign, but that's another story).
With a different group of friends now interested in playing, that may soon change....
With huge amount of new stuff for me to paint up, hopefully we'll see if my skills have improved (and continue to improve) as we go.
Secondly, Apologies for some of the quality of the photos. I'll try and replace pics over time with better ones. For now I'll settle for getting -something- up.
For a bit of background on my concept of a Seeder Swarm, I've linked my short story and comment posted below.
It's my answer to "How did Genestealers get ahead of a Tyranid fleet in the first place?"

Lets start with my original army then. Where better than what got me started with Tyranids in the first place?
1st edition Genestealers out of original Space Hulk.... Blue plastic sprues, awful mould lines and "snap together" arms (of sorts)
