Hive Crone

Most of my choices come down to the fact that I face Tau a lot. My buddy acquired a flyer, so I needed something to counter, as well as scare the Hammerheads in the back with it's S8 Vector Strike.

Enter the Hive Crone

It is quite an amazing model, and I really enjoyed watching it take shape as I dry-brushed the various layers of browns and bone.

I particularly love the Tentaclids, the living missiles that ride under its wings. I've kept them detachable so as to keep count of how many I have left, and, if the feeling takes me, I can pretend one is zooming across the battlefield to bring bio-electric death to the enemy vehicles.

 I think I've decided the left side is its better one.
