Here are a couple of Lictors. I've decided to use the Deathleaper model for my regular Lictor brood as I think it is such a cool model but I have no intention of using unique characters for my Tyranids. I tried to make it appear as if their legs were blending into the background on which they stand to represent their chameleonic abilities:

WOW great work on the Lictors, really liking the chamelon theme you painted them with, don't think I've seen that done before.

Finally an odd addition to this selection, a piece of Imperial Statuary. I decided to play around with the new technical paints (specifically the verdigris one) and I liked the results so much I want to show it off:

Damn those new Tech paints do give some amazing results when in the hands of a truly talanted painter...

Just finished up a conversion of my Tyrannofex. I've never been very pleased with the weapons provided with the model, they've always looked odd to me but some of the leftover bits from building the new Harpy model have provided inspiration and I think I now have an Acid Spray that I can live with:

Nice conversion! It even gives the model a unique look without the massive gun sticking out! I also love your Word Bearer too!

Well, consider me flattered then! I thought about the twin Stranglethorns myself but as Rupture Cannon (kind like baby versions of Hierophant Bio-Cannon) but when you mentioned your Acid Spray idea it got me to take a second look at that weapon and think about suitable conversions. I'm also thinking of adding some little Rippers to my Tyrannofex and Tyrant bases to represent Shereddershard Beetle thorax swarms...

Recently completed Ferrus Manus (an xmas present). I love the model and I'm very pleased with how it came out:

...and of course with both Ferrus and Flugrim it would be criminal not to set them up together in the final confrontation.

Some of new additions to my favorites, starting with some Heresy Era stuff (more to follow). The books have really made me fall in love with each Legion in it's own way, so I've undertaken to build small forces and/or individual models from most of them. Wherever possible I've tried to capture what I see as the "character" of each legion in their poses, wargear, and specializations. How well I have succeeded is a matter of opinion.

Legion Commanders for the 19th Legion Raven Guard (from left to right Vigilator, Praetor, and Moritat):

And some of the GORGEOUS Mechanicum models from Forge World.

A Magos Prime (some slight conversion work), both on his Abayent and off:
Mounted. The chassis weapon mount it magnitized for a Rad-Cleanser (shown), a Conversion Beamer, and a simple embedded scanner (representing no second weapon).

Castallax Battle-Automata (props if you can read their binary labels).

Myrmidon Secutors, arguably some of my favorite models EVER! Armed with a nasty and versatile combination of Phased-Plasma and Graviton weapons.
