Tyranid Tervigons

I made these a while back, but never got around to photographing them! They're not as hard to make as they look, just takes a bit of greenstuffing on the gut to bulk it out.

Thank you very much, the bit list is rather short actually: Trygon + Carnifex legs = Tervigon!

The only thing I did that may not be obvious is that I didn't attach the middle section to the tail the way the kit normally does, instead I glued it outside of where it normally goes and covered the area with greenstuff, that allowed me to get the more horizontal pose of the beast, as well as extending the body.

Now that is an interesting way with the underbelly. Did you build the greenstuff over a frame of sprue bits?

Are you going to make a Tyrannofex next?

I actually already built a Tyrannofex, but I gave it away, lol! Maybe I'll bring my light box to game night some time soon and steal it back from my friend to take a picture of.

The underbelly is just a big wad of green stuff sculpted, I don't usually fill up areas with sprue or anything because I frequently change my mind how something will look while I'm in progress.

Yes please. I would really appreciate that - sooner the better please given the latest GW price increases I might as well purchase a couple of trygons before they go up end of this month.

What did you use to build your Tyrannofex?
