"My Eyes! The goggles do nothing!"
Now i got that out of the way, really nice painting and welcome to bols.
Damn thats a pink pink :p

[Atrocity]

Love the green accent. I don't know how but that pink/purple really just *POPS*. I'm sure it's even better in person. All the bio-pool basing is really amazing. Gives a really icky feeling.

Thanks for sharing!

[bloodangel 83]

Nice sea of pimk and purple. great job

[Lane]

Great paint job.

The colors are Creepy, very alien.

[fuzzbuket]

they are fantasticf- that hierophant is phant-tastic (*groan*)

really thoses colours really pop and the army looks fantastic

my only problems are 1) i could swear these imigas have been shopped even VERY slightly (sorry but it does look like that) and 2) a small bit more definition on the harridrian's occupant cold make it a bit less of an eye sore

but overall a top quality army !!! 10/10

-fuzz

[Lerra]

That . . . is amazing. It's the best tyranid army I've seen by far.

It's nice to see someone who isn't intimidated to work with bright, alien colors. The lining is very well done, especially on the gaunts and other models that most people tend to rush. The purple looks great, and I might have to steal that color for my daemons . . .

[Nard]

Thanks for your comments guys.

A lot of people say that my stuff looks Photoshoped. NONE of my images have been put through Photoshop, what you see is what you get

Heres some more group shots

[Morgan Darkstar]

One word EPIC !!!

[ivanng]

I still can't believe my eyes.
They look like Photoshop cartoon Tyranids.
You are amazing my friend.

Got any tutorials for them?

[Chris Copeland]

All I can say is that I used to think of myself as a competent painter... until I saw your army. Kudos. Well done. Your army is beyond beautiful... I will now go and ritualistically burn my brushes and pour out my paints...

[HarlekissofDeath]

Holy crap!!! How long did that take you to paint, and my gosh the level of painting on them is amazing. I haven't seen that well of a paint job on tyranids. They look really good, inspirational really.

[Calgar33]

You sir are amazing. Love the bases, great idea.

[Emerald Rose Widow]

Wow, this is just amazing, I can't even begin to properly express my amazement with this. I mean how did you even do the pools of gunk of purpleness. Not only that the green addition to the tentacles and the like is just awesome, it matches perfectly. And the chitin looks like real bone, which is a wonderful contrast. This is truly an inspiration to just what you can truly do with tyranid, I mean I could never best this hehe.

[FastEd]

So many things to complement. I think I'll go with your amazing blending, especially in regards to the bone and bone/purple areas. Stunning.

[mathhammer]

very nice work

The color scheme reminds me of the game 13 in that is has the feel it is cell shaded rendered.

very nice.

back to work on my own horde repaint project.

[Nard]

Cheers guys.

Ivanng, Going to do a tutorial at some point

The army took about 4 hrs to paint and still i need to paint more

[archimbald]

simply great, love the continuity of it

[Lerra]

The army took about 4 hrs to paint and still i need to paint more

Uh, did you mean "years" there? Or are you missing a few zeros . . .

[Nard]

Sorry, yes 4 years.......not 4 hours :)

[Emerald Rose Widow]

Lol, I was going to say, if it only took you 4 hours you should do this for a living, cause that is like super speed.

[Mystery.Shadow]

Sorry, yes 4 years.......not 4 hours :)

When I read four HOURS I really wanted to learn your secret.

[Tynskel]

gotta great theme going there. I like the armor colour. Similar to mine, but I use blues instead of purples. I think your guys look better, though--- but that's because I cannot paint!

[dwez]

Such subtlety, not in the purple and lime colours obviously but the quality, even in the littlest nid is impeccable. Did I miss any rippers?

[Nard]

Dwez,

Rippers coming soon, flying ones, crawling ones, burrowing ones, ones that you stick to you car window????

[Emerald Rose Widow]

rockin, I cant wait to see the rippers.

[dark_phoenix]

a full army in that scheme and to that standard of painting is just awe inspiring to behold, congratulations sir!!

[wh33lz]

Wow.............

[snikrot]

thats alot of bugs. i freaking love the white carapaces they look amazing!

[MuGGzy]

Wow I REALLY like this style. The hard black lining mixed with the bright pink blending. When I first saw the pic it looked like a Anime cartoon image and I couldn't tell it was an actual model until I noticed the actual base and background. Very well done!
