Tyranid Warriors!

Using Nomad Sculpt to create heads, legs and pelvis/tail to be compatible with the current plastic kit, I have updated the OG Tyranid Warriors to fit in with the current range, and how I've always prefered them.

The legends return!

More images in next thread!

Little bit of a 'beg' and I'm sorry for that, but does anyone have the old Codex Cityfight gathering dust that they wouldn't mind parting with, please??
I'm working on my Imperial Guard over next few months and want to do some YouTube for them!

Thank youuu #WarhammerCommunity ££

I love when someone says 'You can't drybrush Space Marines!' I love it so much I immediately go and do it, just to watch the miniature catch fire, fall over, then sink into the swamp-... wait.

A few traditional edge highlights in a couple places, but that green is all stippling and drybrushing!

Part of being autistic is being effing exhausted the whole time when you see people not thinking things through and making damaging decisions and *always* being the awkward one who points it out. I am tired.

If you need to get firepower and brutal determination up close to the enemy, you might want to send in Sergeant Reynolds and his combat engineers.

When I was a child and having meltdowns I would simply run away or hide to help me. I didn't really know where I was going or what I was doing.

Now as an autistic adult ?

I will go sit in a field surrounded be nature to gather my thoughts and to recharge. I know where I'm going and what I'm doing.

Waiting for Phillipson to ban ear defenders for kids with sensory overload in England & Wales 🫠 After all, if Labour doesn't do it, it will be unable to stop Reform. There is nothing Labour likes more than copying Reform and banning things 🤷‍♀️
Reform deputy says pupils wearing ear defenders in class is ‘insane’
Reform’s deputy leader claims there is ‘over-diagnosis’ of neurodiverse conditions, appearing at an event where a former Ofsted chief says dyslexia just means ‘bad at reading’

This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

Being autistic and doing day to day tasks can be extremely draining. One day you feel like ok I can do these tasks quite comfortably.

Another day can feel like what the hell am I doing, I can't do these tasks, I can't even remember how to do these tasks, I need to go in a dark room and lay down.

I have extremely strong opinions on protecting refugees. Every time this comes up I feel the need to post something, but I never know what to say. I can't believe I even need to say anything.

Without Britain taking refugees I would not exist. My family would have been wiped out.

Adulting is hard for autistic people, especially when we never got the instruction manual. It doesn’t make us permanent teenagers, it makes us adults who struggle with being adults.

Every color blended on the shawl was fighting me, but I was able to get it pretty close to what I was imagining! Even did some dry brushing on the banner but my dumb ring light washed it out

Giving autistic people platitudes like "don't be wierd" or "stop being autistic" or "learn how to talk to women" is not helpful. If you want to help, give them something actionable. My guess is all you want to do is feel superior to them.
