The Hives' mind has nothing on Messys.

"Floating, claws and arms and tentacles just waiting and reaching and feeling and stroking and.... It didn't want to kill us. It didn't even try, it didn't once even glance at us. Like it saw through us, but straight into our minds. It could taste us, it savoured our thoughts and it plotted against us. By the Emperor, it was a horror beyond horrors, and no bigger than the swarmbeasts... How could the Hive have found a way into our heads without killing us, first?"
The private was dragged back to his quarantine cell, and quickly huddled amongst the thifteen men who hid at the back of the darkened room.
"We're still no closer to working out what the hell happened out there, sir" The sergeant said angrily between tightly gripped teeth. The base had been on edge since the sighting, and was in utter dissarray now that the creature had managed to demoralise every single member of the night patrol team without touching a single one of them.
"We must find it, we cannot allow it to disable our defences!"
"Correct, sergeant. However this creature is as stealthy as it is dangerous. How long could it have been within these walls before anyone actually saw it? How could it hold my men in such a trance, for so long?"
"But captain, we had our best men on guard!"
"And still it stood here, just a fucking foot from where our spotlights were resting..."
"To be specific sir, it didn't exactly stand..." Started an attendant, bearing a tray of drinks.
"Yes, well thank you for raising our moods. So now we know what we're up against, don't we? It floats IN THIN FUCKING AIR. WHAT NEXT? IT READS OUR FUCKING MINDS AND TELLS US WHAT TO DO?"
Sudden gunfire outside of the compound had them darting for their lasguns, peering out into the day-lit scenery to see a man being flayed a foot off of the ground, not even able to scream before his internal organs started unravelling from between his exposed muscles.
"That was the Commissar..." Noted the captain, before he turned his rifle upon his chin and fired.
This thing will be a... Peculiar option for my Genestealer horde.
It's clearly got the basis of Zoanthrope imagery, blended a bit with lictor/ venomthrope.
My uses will vary between the aforementioned Zoanthrope, Warrior "Prime", Venomthope and even.. The Doom of Malan'tai.
Perhaps Mortis would like to use it as a creepy, smaller Zoanthrope for Space Crusade? ;D
Oh, and clearly still WIP. I made the above model in 10 minutes as I stared at bits on my desk.
