Tyranid Fleet for Battlefleet Gothic

Lately, my interest in Battlefleet Gothic has been rekindled, and I've been investing on expanding my collection of ships. I had a couple of Hive ships sitting around on my shelves for quite a while now, so I decided to work on a Tyranid Fleet. 

I don't like the original sculpts (bar the hive ships) and was not willing to pay current ebay prices for models I'm not even excited about, so I chose instead to come up with custom ships for cruisers and escorts, using bits kindly provided by fellow gamers from our club, who play tyranids in 40K. 

Now I only need to add fighters and boarding torpedos to the fleet, which I'm arranging already.

More british infantry

Another unit of british line infantry done. This is my second unit of yellow facings. I now have 2 dark blue (royal) and 2 yellow, which were the two most common facing colors in british regiments in the napoleonic period. I also did a few bases of skirmishers, to represent a mixed formation.

(I learned after taking these pics that I placed the grenadiers and the lighties on inverted flanks: Grenadiers should be on the right, and lights on the left.)
