Heya everybody, shopping for a new race, i thought of the tyranids, postponing my salamander space marines. by coincedince, i thought of alien, looking at the warriors, and thought "hey, xenomorphs from alien are cool and damn scary, and remind me of warriors" what if I created an army themed around warriors, using an alien paint scheme?
so my project begins. i want to do an Alien tyranid army. i'm sure this has been tried before, but i want to do an outstanding job on this. the easy part is arming them. rending, talons, implant attack, and leaping. however, i come to the hard part: the pain scheme
from all the movies i've seen, xenomorphs have silvery/blueish gray skin, wet and glossy. however, I have No clue on how they would look like in regular lighting. it would be great if any of you know a thing or two about alien, and could help me with this epic task. I could use all the help I could get with painting these warriors.
