SPACE HULK TYRANIDS AND LIBRARIAN CALISTARIUS . YEAR: 2012.

Get ready for the... TYRANIDS!!

Hello everyone!
We are really pleased and satisfied about the work that we have performed last week. We have finished the rest of our Space Hulk request:
- 22 Genestealers.
- 1 Broodlord.
- 1 Librarian Calistarius.
- 1 dead Terminator Space Marine on a throne.



If you want, you can check here the Blood Angels Terminators that compose the other part of this big request.

It's been a tough work and longer than we expected. These miniatures are complicated and full of details, not only at the bases. But apart of this, we have to recognize that all of them are great, very dinamic and together they offer an espectacular vision.

Our client wanted his Genestealers painted like in the original set box. He wanted to change just one thing: the Genestealer's claws must be painted with a "Bleached Bone" weathered instead of the original black. And we have to recognize that they look really nice with that. We have also added at the bases some electric wires and some rusted  iron sheets, apart of the details that they already include to give coherence with the Blood Angels Terminator squads. Of course, we highlight the Broodlord base as he deserves. Painting them with dark colours with those rusted details make the bases adquire a great environment of desolated spaceship.

Talking about the Librarian Calistarius and the dead Terminator miniature, we have also painted them like in the original box with the same decoration for the bases. We have included the Librarian shoulder pad "free hand" as well.

Let's see what you think about these miniatures (what a blue tide!):











Each Tyranid has practically his own details, so we want to show you a couple of them by photo. In this way you will be able to see their details more accurately.



We love these Tyranids, the one which is licking the Terminator's head and the one which comes out breaking the ground.









We wanted to highlight the only Tyranid hero that this request included (the Broodlord), so we have added even more details to his base. Pay attention because they are not randomly placed: electric wires form a pentagon which guide you and highlight what it's inside.







Now we shift of army. We want to introduce you the Librarian Calistarius, leader of the Terminator Squads.
Check out all the datails that he has like the axe, the cables or diferent parchments throughout his armor.







Shoulder pad "free hand" detail.



And finally, to end this request, the dead Terminator on a throne. We really like this miniature. His pose is very dinamic and realistic. Just great.





To sum up, a varied request full of complex miniatures with many details which we have used several interesting techniques and enjoyed painting their bases.
We hope you like it and of course we accept all your opinions and ideas.

Cheers!!
