    Default Insect themed Tyranid army: Need help

    I recently started a Tyranid army, I've been bouncing around a few paint theme ideas, I like the idea of doing a bio-luminescence themed army, but can't find too many pics to help me out. I also have toyed with the idea of doing an insect-ish themed army, painting each unit type according to a dfferent type of insect. I've already got a few going, and some ideas for different units, but I could use some help figuring out what would work for the other units.

    There's multiple different types of scarabs, you could theme each HQ after a different coloured one.

    For the Tyrannofex I'd recommend the Bombardier Beetle.
