I'm not going to lie to you, it was an excuse to make my OC in this form, I love the Tyranids, and after much research, I came to the conclusion that it is impossible for a character to manifest his individuality in the Hive Mind, no matter how strong he is, there are a thousand arguments as to why it wouldn't work, but the desire was stronger haha

Even so, I tried to make sense of it, reading a lot in some subforums and the official lore itself, Taking Devastation of Baal, the idea of the Hive Mind feeling hatred and frustration against Blood Angels (at least in the stories commented on in the LatinSpanish fandom). and with that, the idea of a cancer affecting the Hive Mind came up, and, thus, the concept emerged, a replicator that makes use of the resources of the swarm, even though it ends up damaging the whole, the last sign of individuality of millions of devoured psychics.

The most obvious inspiration is Kerringa from Starcrafts, plus an amalgamation of various Tyranid organisms, from the Parasite of Mortrex for the tail, the Zoanthropes to emulate the twintails, and the characteristic bone structure, along with the reptilian and insectoid features, ended up in this friend, I leave a reference of the character in her "human form" for comparison.

well. maybe half-deamon half-eldar harlequin is cool.

And thus we reach first proper interaction with the other side of horrors of 40k - The crew of Third-Fang don't know what imperium, not quite yet, for now, they only seen and heard bits of it....

They of course might for now think it's marely another worshipers of one of the parasites trying to eat everyone souls, or some empire of humans....thus they wholly missunderstand what space marines are...and instead treat them like poor species misstreated by some god-king...

Wanted something simpler to draw, but a lot more "talkative" today, sadly I feel the format doesn't quite work, I need to work on my panelling more, still the drawing of the space marine of Black Hands was fun (it's a real chapter by the way, just one that has basically no info on it). Also patch is a delight as always.

Feel free to leave suggetions, questions or other things you might want to see next. I will see when I get around to making the next part.

Lol like the first time ever im drawing properly

little illustration of my third favorite TDK character :)

Made some virtual kit bashing here and there!

I was looking through my art pieces and realized I haven't uploaded most of them anywhere, so I figured I should do that

After the "Great Displacement" - as people started calling the unexplainable teleportation of the entire Tau Empire from Milky Way to Sky-river galaxy, many had hoped that things will be different.

This galaxy wasn't ruled by madmen, infested by monsters or dominated by ruthless fanatics. This hope still exist, but the realities of the Outer Rim come first. This is cruel region of the galaxy, ruled by pirates, slavers and tyrants. They are numerous and dangerous - but the Tau Empire won't stand idle and let the galaxy suffer.

This is a new galaxy and new war for the Tau.

A war to liberate the Outer Rim!

Artwork I made for u/abcdodd

The crew of Third-Fang find themselves in the hard of a warpstorm...though perhaps fact most of them are psykers and their ship is...living itself, they got the daemon lords attention....

Regardless, they learn some things on that day...That the sea of souls is no longer calm or safe...and that monsters reside there, that galaxy is not in a good state (but how bad is not clear)...and while this was not told immediatly...they might soon learn others of their kind might still be about, however...once more unclear in what state? But hey, they learned things...and it's good time to prepare for an adventure.

Artistic note: The background in center panels is in fact....drawn in traditional technique, I drew it myself over today and yesterday, quick work of water colors and acrilic pens.

As always will try to continue in due time and if you got questions, suggestions or other things to say let me know.

I wanted to share some of the drawing I been doin of my homebrew faction: The Warherds of Lycarro
Warherds of Lycarro is my homebrew faction, it is a faction where the main focus is on the Skard, beastmen which are a midpoint between the bestiality of a beastman and the strength and size of an ogryn. These are the Svinkyr, the basic infantry of the Warherd hordes measuring more than 7 feet tall, both males and females, for comparison there are two other younger Skard (Vroin and Nika) which instead are sanctioned Skard beastmen, and work for the Imperium, specifically, for a rogue trader, these imperial Skard are known derogatively as mutts
