It's 6mm Warhammer 40,000, NOT Epic 40k!
Well everything has been chaotic for me since my last post, I was surprised by the early arrival of my firstborn biomass (mother and baby are happy and healthy) which I'm sure you can imagine has left me with little time to hobby. So here I am, a month late with an expansion for my 6mm 40k Tyranid force.
This month I come offering a third Hive Tyrant with lash whip, bonesword and venom cannon for 219 points. A trio of Biovores for 60 points along with six handmade spore mines, 10 points each. Next a pack of vicious Genestealers for 252 points and a Lictor, 96 points. This takes the swarm over 2000 points! a great sucess.
Shuffling around in the background looking shamefully "newhammer" I have a custom Barbed Hierodule based off a 3d print with hand sculpted additions and finally one of those newfangled 40k units the mucolid spore, here represented by a 28mm scale spore mine. Neither of these additions have points values in second edition.
I am particularly pleased with the spore mines, they are sewing pins, cut short and drilled into bases at a slight angle. I then used Vallejo Plastic Putty to apply some greebly texture.
Next month will be my wildcard entry (it's looking like terrain and a bio titan) and I shall try to get some glamour shots of the swarm so far, as a whole.
As I reflect on this project as a whole I am incredibly pleased to have a whole army that looks fairly consistent and is approching completion (I better get myself a Screamer Killer...)
There is a battle report on the horizon, Leviathan vs the Eldar of Saim-Hann.
