The only good Carnifex, is an OOP carnifex.

The original.

So, I got this guy a while ago, now. £13 on ebay.

Painted him up in my Hive colours (I lack up to date pictures of "Nibbles" on his own.)

Over the last year, I felt Nibbles was... Lonely. The only other Carnifex I had was the new plastic, and he was kitted out with so much stuff that the new Codex made redundant that he just grew depressed. Nibbles didn't find him much fun at all, so I knew I had to make him some new friends.

Well, I got some gargoyles, loads of genestealers and even a lictor, but none of those even liked to play with Nibbles. Too much plasma, they said!

Then I got hold of a Trygon, and I thought he may finally enjoy himself, having a bigger nid to play with.
Sadly, he was away a lot, being slowly turned into a massive Red Terror.

I knew then, the only thing to do would be to get another Screamer Killer.

Well, two attempts and £8.50 later...

Thumper. c:

They even play nicely!

But not with others...

Excellent!

I look forward to seeing 2 of these on the board together - tearing aside Marine corpses and blasting plasma down corridors

Still my favourite Carnifex too. For me this era Tyranids where the only ones I've liked the look of.

Iv never fully 'got' nids on a personal level... But I see why others like them.

But for me, the detail and the hulking menace of the modern plastic big nids is much much better, but I understand how gamers longer in the hobby like the old skill stuff.
Good find on eBay tho kiddo

I just got another Screamer Killer, £8.

Help me name him?

Mankinds first mistake; Questioning why those around him, are dying.
