Terrifying scream, enraged and full of anger - Tyranid Screamer Killer!!

Hello everyone. For those who have been reading this blog you may remember a post about my top ten miniatures of all time (You can read all about it by clicking this link). Those that have read it will have spotted that number 3 on that list was ...

THE TYRANID SCREAMER KILLER!!!!!

Run for your lives!!

This is the model that sealed my love for the hobby. Others may claim it was some cool space marine terminators, a dwarf on skis, that amazing John Blanche undead bridge diorama or even a giant spined dragon but for me it was the Tyranid Screamer Killer or Carnifex to it's science friends.

Hivemind has consumed an ork.

I love how alien looking this giant battering ram looks. With its four massive scythe arms, that disturbing head and gaping maw, the fact it also had some amazing stats to go with it was just gravy to an already delicious roast dinner.

Galvanise the memory cells with Eavy Metal!: Part 1 (White Dwarf 145)

Today we go back in time, to the early 90s. To be specific 1992 a time of mere 9 year old wonder when chocolate bars were a decent size. The Woolwich was a building society and this blog writer picked up a copy of White Dwarf for the first time in his local newsagent.

A mighty fine selection of readin'!

I do like going back and looking at old White Dwarf magazines when others post some nice painting displays or an interesting scenario. However these retrospective walks down memory lane are always within the early 100s of White Dwarf when 3rd edition Fantasy Battle was getting it's footing and Rogue Trader was but a companion and not the juggernaut 40k it is today.
