Genestealer Hybrid Family The Next Generation

[kierkegaard]

Well, it turns out that I'm not quite finished with my genestealers, or with painting purple. A nasty surprise will arrive soon... Watch this space.

Robey - if I need brood kin, I'll just use my Hive Gangers.

Sorry about the double post, but here is the promised update.

The New Batch

And with their great great great great grandfather.

The genestealer looks like a real monster behind those hybrids.

Which models did you use for them, they look nice, are they perhaps newborn hybrids?

[kierkegaard]

Thanks.

They are meant to be newborn purestrain genestealers. I used the ancient familiar models shown on this page:

Nice! I have a lovely mental image of these little guys wall-crawling to get behind some poor mook and then dropping down on him and shredding him. Failing that, something like the Compsognathi scene from Jurassic Park 2 also springs to mind . . .

I think these would be a little more deadly than that, if I recall correctly someone even survived being attacked by the Compsognathi, I don't think many would survive these things, those claws are genestealer claws after all...

Those old models are still very good looking and characterful, the baby genestealers look very mean, I'd hate to be the one running into them.

[Swarbie]

Yeah, the little girl survived. Which is a given because it wasn't a horror movie so they weren't allowed to kill minors. However, one guy did get eaten alive 

[Dolnikan]

I'm sorry, I completely forgot about that one guy, I should really see the movies again someday.

[Van Helser]

Those guys are quite a find - or have they been kicking around in a box of old models for a while? They're an excellent addition to the brood - hunting those little buggers down could be quite a challenging scenario on board a ship for instance... So many nooks and crannies!
