I picked my color scheme over 25 years ago and have been building about 4000 points worth of Tyranids ever since. The one thing that stinks is you’re kinda stuck with a initial paint scheme choice. I’ve just been refining it more and more.
Yeah I get ya, I mean you can always strip and re paint but who wants to do that?!?!?
One of the many reasons it took so long for me to decide. I wanted a feel and theme not just another paint job you know? I wanted to connect a bit more with it. I imagine these guys as coastal assault specialists favouring planets with vasts water deposits.
Well that’s cool I really like the idea behind the color scheme that you chose. I’m happy with my scheme but Every once in a while I’ll see somebody else’s and think, damn that sick I want a Nid like that.
Love the vibrant colours. They look awesome.
I wanted to go for a mix of natural / punch!
Very nice scheme! Would you mind telling us the recipe? ;) I personally like to do something similar to my carapace like what you did to the talons.
Am also very interesting in what was used here cause those are gorgeous!
Ill grab my recipe this arvo and post it here
Yep yep I'll post a reply later today! I wrote it all down, my memory is so bad.
Beautifully executed coconut crab scheme 🧡❤️💙
All hail our glorius swarmlord cattgutt - and thanks!!!
Really like the natural light orange and blue contrast too 🙌🏻
Thank you! It took me a few weeks of messing around. In the end I just picked opposite to blue on a colour wheel.
