Hive Swarm Sporemorph Hunter – Bio-Engineered Apex Predator

The Hive Swarm Sporemorph Hunter is a towering bio-engineered predator designed for brutal shock assaults and battlefield terror tactics. Standing an imposing 52mm from feet to eyes, this monstrous creature charges forward on digitigrade legs, its barbed tail coiling behind it with lethal intent. Two serrated spikes jut from its shoulders, framing a head marked by four unblinking eyes that gleam with predatory intelligence.

The beast is sculpted mid-slaughter, perched atop a decapitated soldier while clutching the torn halves of another victim. This dynamic pose captures the raw, unrestrained violence associated with creatures spawned from the deepest genetic pits of any Hive Swarm bio-culture. Layered carapace plates, exposed musculature, and chitinous growths combine to create a model rich in texture and storytelling potential. The miniature comes on a custom scenic base, amplifying its tabletop presence and narrative impact.

Suggested Painting Guide:

1. Prime:

• Black for a sinister, horror-infused tone.
• Bone or grey-white for a brighter, alien aesthetic.

2. Flesh & Muscle:

• Basecoat with bruised purples, deep reds, or sickly pale tones.
• Wash heavily with violet or sepia to add organic depth.

3. Carapace:

• Try deep blues, greens, or glossy blacks.
• Edge-highlight with sharp, contrasting lines to emphasise segmentation.

4. Claws, Spikes & Teeth:

• Bone, ivory, or ochre blends work perfectly.

5. Gore Effects:

• Mix gloss varnish with deep reds for believable fresh blood.
• Add brown-red for dried, congealed staining.

6. Custom Base:

• Drybrush greys and metallics for rubble and armour fragments.

A gruesome centrepiece creature ideal for painters, collectors, and anyone who enjoys the visceral look of bio-horror monstrosities.
