That's some beautifully painted heresy you got there. Sure would be a shame if someone PURGED THE XENOS SCUM
TheWulfrunian
Wow Tyranids have changed since I used to play. That (what I assume is a) Carnifex looks way better!
BuckeyeBTH
3x Carnifex in #4 second to the right from the winged dude. The big one in #5 is a Tyranofex

All I saw was "Tyranid Scheme".
kinosnightmares
It's not?
secretlibby
Rhymes with "pyramid scheme". 'Twas a pun.
SirSage
It's a reverse punnel system

That whole film is basically Imperial Guard vs Tyranids. Fun fact: The Mobile Infantry in the novel were on par with the Adeptus Astartes.

Nice work, mate. The Great Devourer would be very pleased.

If you don't have more than 30 gaunts you're not playing tyrannids

Nidzilla looks even more fun with 8e, although the standard swarmy tactics got stronger with the rumored blast and flamer nerfs.
ionicseraph
Damn fine looking army of space nopes
CarrotSharpener
Thanks, this post prompted me to order another WH40K book, with Tyranids this time.
NairnyBear
Something to do with the Scythes of the Emperor?
CarrotSharpener
The Ultramarine Omnibus, I'm told there are Tyranids in there among other things.
NairnyBear
There are indeed. Nobody writes the Ultramarines quite as well as Graham McNeill
NairnyBear
Any chance of some photos out of the sunlight? Makes it hard to make out details
TysonGiusti
I'll get some :)

I would love to get into warhammer. But I'd really need someone who could walk me through it one on one.
TysonGiusti
The new edition is just around the corner (17th ) it's gonna be awsome, and waaaay more simplified& easy to start :)
BarbieMagicHairStyler
Find a local hobby shop, people are happy to help!
havock003
Ugh, human interaction. What do you think I am, a philistine?
RandomHorribleDumbSobStory
That's a lot of money
Madskirke
For little plastic
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED
Like more money than Bill gates ever earned money
BuckeyeBTH
Eh, like $550 Freedom Bucks + around $100 in paints. The big suck is the time to assemble and paint
Xyfilae
I was just thinking "that's a small nid army"..
TheEightfoldPath
A mate bought a nid army off CL and when he was setting his list up he had 200 points to spare. 40 fucking hormies for 200pts.
Xyfilae
I have a mate who fields "swarms" of carni's. And here's me just drowning them in cultists..
TheEightfoldPath
Genestealers cult or chaos? I'd love to face off against a true swarming list tho, seems fun. Esp with pieplates although that's going away
Xyfilae
DO YOU HEAR THE VOICES TOO?!? Praise be to Lorgar.
1337JBear
Its not very expensive if you paint one kit before buying the next.
altrdgenetics
money doesn't not work that way... The price is the same no matter how you purchase them. I think you mean easier to budget.
1337JBear
Yes, but my point is don't by an army all at once and it is a much more manageable hobby.
RoadRageRob666
also "money doesnt not work that way"....... so youre saying that it DOES work that way? :p
RoadRageRob666
Theres a big difference between dropping $1500 in a single day and spending $1500 over 1.5 years. Its called being financially responsible
Thetextistoosmalltoread
those look amazing man, i envy your skills. Any tips for a new starter?
TysonGiusti
The start collecting packs are really good value , especially on eBay :)
GodLikeButHumble
Not OP, but: 1) Thin your paints. 2) Better 2-3 thin coats than one thick one 3) Keep it simple, but neat 4) not too much paint on the brush
Thetextistoosmalltoread
when you say thin your paints...what is your technique?
GodLikeButHumble
Dry pallette: one or two brushloads of paint, dip the brush with the last load of paint in water, eyeballed. You're looking at a consistency
GodLikeButHumble
that flows well off the brush, basically a milk-like thickness. I preach the gospel of wet pallettes, though: flat container (eg tupperware)
GodLikeButHumble
with 1-2 layers of kitchen tissue, water, baking parchment on top, mix/thin paint atop. Since the paint pulls water through the parchment
Ewanator
+1 for amasing work. Needs more necrons though. You excited for 8th edition? https://imgur.com/kHGudSw.gif
TysonGiusti
I have crons, fully painted, will post after work :p
Ewanator
Nice, nice. Have you seen their changes in 8th ed? They somehow became even MORE tanky.
TysonGiusti
Yess just went to the pre release today, very exited !!!
Ewanator
Nice. I've preordered the xeonos 1 book (eldar and necrons) and I'm buying the rules with a friend. Good Luck!
GodLikeButHumble
Dat Monolith tho.
Ewanator
I've been saving up for a monolith for a while, now I REALLY want one. Shame necron infantry can only move 5" now though.
GodLikeButHumble
Night Scythes, Monolith for porting them in. Otherwise, big-ass units and advance them with char support. 'Crons can take the extra turn.
TheEmperorOfMankind40000
Well look at this guy. He can afford a cool army, while I'm still saving up for my space marine army.
BuckeyeBTH
Betrayal at Calth set is your friend, $150 bucks, 2 Hq, 3x Troops, a dread and a 5x Term squad.. woop!
TheEmperorOfMankind40000
Thanks for the advice. I'm going for more of a salamanders army. I could probably get conversion stuff for it though.
BuckeyeBTH
If you get this, it doubles the cost, but gets all those tasty Salamander bits https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-US/Salamanders-Task-Force
BuckeyeBTH
Add this: https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-US/Cataphractii-Special-Weapons-Set and some Contemptor weps and you're all set.
BuckeyeBTH
Well.. the Betrayal at Calth set is basically neutral, they're still grey plastic, just Mark IV and Cataphracatii terms / Contemptor
BlackAttackMac
Well that's your problem in the first place. Playing Space Marines.
TheEmperorOfMankind40000
Well I'm definitely not playing tau, I'm also not a fan of nids or orks. I'd play imperial guard but they are expensive too.

Check Craigslist or sites like Bartertown. You can get some good deals.
TheEmperorOfMankind40000
I do. In my area the problem is either no one sells or plays with the whole Craigslist thing. EBay is just hard to trust sometimes.
