More of Graham's work:

Tyranid Warriors

I met up with my friend Graham, from 3 Colours Minimum painting, at Blog Wars 9, and was able to collect my last batch of Nids that he's painted for me. I'm very happy with the work he's done for me given that the price has been very reasonable and I've got another army painted without lifting a brush!

First off here are the Tyranid Warriors, I'll be doing the basing to match my other Nids.

Basilisk

I've never managed to complete my U90 conversion, and didn't have the time to do that for Blog Wars 9, so I quickly kit bashed a Chimera hull, some Leman Russ tracks and one of my Abrogator artillery kits with the usual bits of plasticard and details from other kits. Again this is a first of 2, the second one is not completed yet.

Wyvern

Nothing for a few weeks simply because I've been working on things that weren't good to photograph. First off was getting a second hand Dwarf army up to a consistent quality, and adding numbers to fill squads. I did have to farm out a couple of units to a friend to have them painted as time was short last month due to real life hassles. Anyway with the Dwarves out of the way I added a couple of Blood Pact units to take to Blog Wars 9. If anyone wonders how I did there - I was last!

First of these new units was a Wyvern. I really don't like the GW model for this, it's lazy so I've made my own. Normally I use my half track models for Chimera variants, but those are getting harder to find at a price I like, and given Blight Wheel have just released their new truck kit I decide to use those. It's the same size as the halftracks so win-win! The Stormshard mortar is from Curious Constructs recent Kickstarter (their quad mortar), some plasticard and a Warmachine style base.

This is the first Wyvern of 2, but I need another mortar before I can build the second one.
