Would love to see the paint job! As a "counts as" - maybe a Scythed Hierodule? They ship on a 130mm base so that's about as close as you may get. They're in the Forge World data sheets if you want to have a nosey.

@Derploop 11 ай бұрын
Scythed Heirodule is on a 125mm base, so this thing should be like 66-100% bigger given it's filling a 180mm base. The Heirodule models do extend past their base, but only because of arm modelling and tails. The Bio-titan if it's 11x11 in is like, 50% bigger again than this. It's an awkward size. Need more nid models I guess, whatever happened to the Dimachaeron?

Yep that would be my take too. The bigger base size is just a sacrifice you sometime have to make with cool conversion like that! It's more of a penalty for you anyway so anyone outside of a tournament shouldn't have an issue with that.

I have been using a very old soldering iron. I removed the tip and added a razor blade, creating a hot knife. It works amazingly well for bashing.

I think you could continue the smoke/acid cloud effect that's on the rear of the model to the vents on the middle section that would look amazing. Really tie the two parts together and give you an interesting painting opportunity on the final product.

Yes please paint it! One of the things I find most interesting in painting tyranids is that they are 100% organic. There's so much color in nature to draw inspiration from. From the blue ringed octopus, cow killer ant, and even monarch butterflies it's like tyranids were made for colorful nature schemes!

The naming people were consistent. Abdomen just means "the cavity where the gut/etc. is". And, insects basically don't have a Butt, so their body ends at the abdomen. Long version - most of a mammal's "butt" is the muscles that drive the hind-legs, and insects don't have this. All their legs are kinda like arms (or fore-legs), and come out from their torso/thorax. So their body ends at the abdomen (which happens to be round). I.e. the mammal body goes "head, torso with arms/fore-legs, abdomen, bottom with hind-legs" whereas the insect body goes "head, torso with many legs, abdomen". To put it another way. That's not the insect's bottom that's its belly. Insects don't have bottoms.
@ericwilliams2546 11 ай бұрын
Our 'Thorax' is our chest area, we call it the thoracic cavity and it houses your heart and lungs. Our 'abdomen' is our abdominal cavity and is a separate cavity below the thoracic cavity which contains our digestive organs. We don't have a butt cavity.

I absolutely adore this model, and I would love to see it painted, either as a custom hive fleet or as a Gorgon model. In any case, I was struck by inspiration and gave this thing a name. The Myrmodin A titanic Tyranid bioform recently discovered by the Consecrator successor chapter during the protection of Rigoris Eta. The Myrmodin was the Synapse core for the invading force, as no Broodlords, Tyrants, or even Prime tyranids were accounted for in the aftermath. While it did not display the psychic prowess of its fellow Synapse leaders, its control range is considered to be significantly wider, allowing it to control innumberable of the lesser bioforms. Its size and density rivals or perhaps even exceeds that of the Harridan, though further analysis is required. However, it is confirmed that the chitinous shell of the Myrmodin is several magnitudes harder than the Harridan or the Hierophant, having survived three separate orbital bombardments with high-ordinance munitions before finally succumbing to the wrath of the Emperor. The Myrmodin possesses several offensive measures, including highly lethal sonic outbursts, massively monstrous scything talons, Ceramite-crushing tentacles, and corrosive gases. The sonic outbursts, similar to those of the "Screamer-Killer" bioform, reduced a Stormhawk to scrap and the infantry onboard to their base components. Even the Casteferrum Dreadnaughts deployed against it received significant structural damage. The talons and tentacles that surround the head of the Myrmodin allow it to eliminate multitudes of its prey, rending Ceramite and flesh from bone and squeezing prey into paste, before simply separating its jaw to swallow the remains whole. A series of vents along the abdomen of the Myrmodin's body, as well as across the thorax, can release highly corrosive and toxic gases, which seemed to have a somewhat empowering effect on any lesser bioforms nearby, sending the xenos into a blood frenzy and inflicting far more damage than they normally would have. A thorough autopsy is required.
