Project Unknown Tyranid Beasties Vol. 2: The Harpy

So on to part two of my intrepid journey. I decided the Harpy would be easy enough to do, and I just happened to want a couple in my list. A Carnifex with a set of Balrog wings would pretty much fit the bill.

I once more didn't go wholesale for the picture in the codex. I didn't like the gun placement in the picture and I really wondered why they didn't go for Harridan style mounts, so I decided that's what I would do with mine. You can see a detail shot of the weapon mounts below.



The only part of of the conversion that really took any, well, conversion was the tail section. I cut the Carnifex tail just below the armour plates and pinned a paperclip in its place. I then curved the paperclip how I wanted it, covered it in putty, and gave it a scythe tail from the Fex kit.

Project Unknown Tyranid Beasties Vol. 1: The Tervigon

So I'm sure many of you have seen all the new goodness in the Tyranid codex, and the one thing that stuck out at me is that this codex has one of the most incomplete model ranges since second edition, there is alot of undone stuff. So I'll be building a few.

For the Tervigon I used the Hive Tyrants legs and head combined with the torso of a carnifex and a bunch of green Its middle arms are fused together into the egg pouch, and I used one of the terrain bits from the Genestealer kit to make the 'orifice' on the pouch, which you can see below...


I also magnetized the Termagaunts on the base, because with this guy on the field, I may just need to pop them onto their own bases...

Warlord with Fellblade and Skaven Army Lists

So I have been doing pretty damn well with my Skaven since I got back into playing them, but my list is a bit on the heavy side. Thus I painted up this Warlord to make it a bit more palatable. Here are the two versions...

Grey Seer Tarrik's Horde of Many (heavy)
Lords
Grey Seer w/ 2*Scrolls on Bell 500

Heroes
BSB w/ Halberd, Storm Banner 122
Lvl 2 Warlock w/ musket, Condenser 135
Lvl 2 Warlock w/ musket, Doomrocket, Scrying Stone 160

Core
30*Clanrats w/ shields, full command, Poisoned Wind Mortar 220
30*Clanrats w/ shields, full command, Poisoned Wind Mortar 220
40*Clanrats w/ shields, full command, Poisoned Wind Mortar 265

Special
8* Censer Bearers 128

Rare
Hellpit Abomination w/ warpstone spikes 250
Hellpit Abomination w/ warpstone spikes 250


Raskat's Clan (hobby)
Lords
Warlord w/ Fellblade, shield 193

Heroes
BSB w/ Halberd, Storm Banner 122
Lvl 2 Warlock w/ musket, Condenser 135
Lvl 2 Warlock w/ musket, Doomrocket, Scrying Stone 160

Core
30*Clanrats w/ shields, full command, Poisoned Wind Mortar 220
30*Clanrats w/ shields, full command, Poisoned Wind Mortar 220
40*Clanrats w/ shields, full command, Poisoned Wind Mortar 265
21*Giant Rats 2*Packmasters, Master Moulder w/ Great Weapon, Poisoned Attacks 131
24*Night Runners w/ Warp-Grinder 228

Special
11* Censer Bearers 176

Rare
Doomwheel 150
Hellpit Abomination w/ warpstone spikes 250

Both the lists have the two Aboms, but the second list is not near as powerful because it cannot dominate the magic phase. I think the Warp Grinder Night Runners will be fun. If I don't misfire them, they are pretty much guaranteed a charge, maybe get Death Frenzy off on them...

More Skaven!

A unit of Clanrats...
