Hey there people!
Started a tyranid army last year and have been painting on and off. Just throwing in a few pics for fun.

I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE PAINT SCHEME! IT'S TOO LOUD!

But props to you for doing it, that's a bold, bold colour scheme, and I think you're awesome for going there. Also, the technical is solid. Good job!

definitely bold. very well painted. I do feel maybe a wash over the green, but other than that, very impressive.

I second this comment. The bold colors look great, but when you dig into detail there are a lot of brush streaks and detail overbrushes. If you spent a little time cleaning those spots up, then used a targeted wash over some of the main colors and all over the green, it could deepen your contrast as well as provide a unifying feel to the overall color scheme.

Cusp of Great. Please don't stop.

Ugh, yeah. Sorry about that. I did experiment with Coelia Greenshade for those purposes, but it came out pretty bad. I bought a pot of Biel-tan Green, so I'm hoping it will turn out better.

You have great skills, but its definitely that sharp contrast in colors that makes em a little difficult to look at. OH and a wash as the others have said would add a lot! Keep working at it, practice makes perfect after all!
