Tyranid Neurothrope and Zoanthrope

This is my first post to this blog for many months, unfortunately real life has interfered a lot with my wargaming in recent months but hopefully now I will be back for a while. Prior to this week I havent done any painted or gaming since about June time but a few days ago I did pick up a brush and paint a Zoanthrope, then this morning I saw this image of an upcoming GW release and decided that I didnt want to buy the new plastic Zoanthrope/Venomthrope kit but I probably will want to use one of the new Neurothropes


I had a bit of time to spare today so I thought I would have a go at making my own version of the Neurothorpe based on this image. I wasnt really too bothered about copying it exactly so this is what I came up with:



I am by no means a master of the kit-bashing, sculpting type skills used with this sort of work but it was fairly simple and Im quite pleased with the results

I also painted a regular Zoanthrope a couple of days ago so here are the two of them alongside each other
