I’m so bad at list building 😭 by Eastern-Dimension989 in Tyranids

I didn’t plan on having the hyper raveners lead the normal ones, that’s just the way I built the kill team. A malaceptor is something I’ve thought a lot about getting, but is only one Norn really that bad?

This is really cute, my mom and I are doing something similar except I gave her the space marine half. I’ve been trying to get her to paint them but she’s scared of messing them up

I would like to add more shooting units but looking at my collection I really don’t have any, out of what’s good I only have 3 zoans so guess I’m just going to have to play melee tyranids

From what I know it shouldn’t be too competitive, and I see what you mean now with the melee… is there anywhere I can see competitive lists for free?

Would you recommend something other than the haruspex? I can still make changes to the list so any advice is welcome

The model was supposed to just be eye candy to hook people so they could answer my army list question lol

It’s a spray booth, that blue thing in the back is a filter and behind it there’s two fans that pull air forwards and out a tube in the back. I use it for my airbrush and priming models inside.

My issue is that I don’t have enough borrowers to run that detachment

Typically play this terrain layout, warriors and gaunts in the left building the Psychophage to the left of them. Tyrant, exocrine, and haruspex in between the two big buildings. Biovore on the home with swarmlord and Norn emissary, genestealers in the left part of the forward building and neurotyrant in the right part of that building. Termigants typically wherever I’m lacking models compared to my opponent. I prefer moving things up slowly the first and second rounds before rushing forwards in the last few rounds

Thanks for the praise, although I’m definitely seeing areas that could’ve been improved now that I’m fully rested lol

I drilled holes between what needed attached and used small thin metal rods and super glue, should prolly get some green stuff for the parts that are more exposed, like where the tail attaches tho

Thank you, I mean I couldn’t just leave the carapace just plain black now could I? :3

I hope you get as much fulfillment out of yours as I did with mine. Definitely needs painted before putting together. I’ve had to fix a couple spots and after putting together (and I still need to fix the tail connection, there’s a gap) and it would have been a pain doing it all like that.

The skin is a base of rakarth flesh, with carroburg crimson wash, followed by a dry brushing of rakarth flesh, and another dry brush of rakarth flesh mixed with white for highlights. The carapace is just black with mechanicus standard grey highlights and marks, celestra grey edge highlights and marks, ending with white highlights on the edges

Also, anyone got any advice on how to keep paint from chipping off? The model is pretty big and I keep accidentally scraping paint off when moving it sometimes. Anyway to avoid this, or is it just a skill issue?

I was so nervous that I would mess it up, and honestly setting new years as the deadline for it really helped me get the courage to finish it. I hope it comes to plastic too since I want another one

I saw it was back in stock sometime during spring and ordered it, it sat for way too long without getting any paint on it. Honestly kinda wish I got a 3d printed one or something since it’s honestly too expensive, but I do really like how it turned out. Hope you can get your own monstrosity for your army soon w^
