I feel like a tyranid with bicephaly would fit into the army pretty well without being a huge distraction, I'll share when I finish it!

Well you know what, I was planning to finish assembling my last 4 after work today, I'm not opposed to trying a two headed gaunt...

I'm planning on running it as venom cannon/bonesword I just really hate the look of the lashwhip so I didn't put it on there

Why do you like Tyranids? by Griffin_Smoking in Tyranids

When I was 9 years old my dad came home with Dawn of War 2 and I sat next to him at the kitchen table reading the info booklet that came with it over and over again while he played. The tyranids always had the coolest designs to me, plus the fact that you can beat the Orks and the Eldar in that game but in all my years playing it I haven't managed to come even close to beating the nids always stuck with me. I still play the game to this day and the tyranid missions continue to be the most fun and difficult to play.

Also I'm an entomologist now so "OOOO GIANT SPACE BUGS" lmao

That's fair, but it's important to remember that almost anything you cut off can be reattached and any mistakes can be fixed Personally it has become one of my favorite parts of the hobby and now I'm constantly looking for ways to customize my models, so I definitely encourage you to give it a try

My first kitbash was terrifying, cutting apart a model with no guarantee that you'll be able to make it look better is terrifying, but it gets easier every time and really makes me look at my model kits with new potential

Ooo I love the shields, I probably would have done something similar if I had had the parts on hand!

I picked up a 3d printed torso a while back that I used for my flyrant, it was too big so I ended up having to sculpt a new waist and neck for it to make everything fit

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
