Tyranid Swarm by Awaken Realms

[Awaken Realms]

Hello,

Today we have a small part of a big army to show you! When you look at the photos you’ll see numerous little space bugs (indeed, a mass of them), but it’s only a small tendril of the whole Tyranid Swarm we’re currently painting. Much more of the little ones are incoming, and the ground is shaking with the footsteps of the bigger ones that are incoming…

Ever played Tower Defense games? Think of this part as the first wave of critters incoming – and there will be more and more of them, with bigger ones and biggest ones as well – so stay tuned and wait for more updates – there will be a handful of them – and see how the Hive Fleet is growing bigger and bigger!

The models were painted in our equivalent of tabletop quality – put quality-wise and pricing-wise below our Standard quality.

Also, you may see the pictures in ourgallery (http://awakenrealms.com/galleries/tyranid-swarm/) as well!

Hello,

Another Tyranid monstrosities appeared, this time in even more bizarre variety of shapes and monstrous ways to kill and devour:

may need to shamelessly steal this colour scheme

[Awaken Realms]

Hello,

With one of the final waves, the hoardes of Raveners and Venomthropes amassed the Imperial defences, only to be followed by the mighty Hierophant Titan. He was such enormous beast that even the cybernetic eyes of pic-capturing servo-skulls failed to comprehend fully the creature (and had to catch some white background as well). We call it “shrimp” in the studio, due to the characteristic curvature of it’s back (and of course, size)

You may see the Hierophant in our gallery (http://awakenrealms.com/galleries/hierophant-titan/) as well.
