Below is my attempt at putting together a "fluffy" and tactically competent Rogue Trader Tournament tyranid force. All of the units below minus the Zoanthropes make up a complete 1500 point army. The paint scheme was meant to be somewhat contrasting and alien and is carried throughout the entire army. The red is a combination of Scab Red and Blood Red. Carapace plating was painted Chaos Black with Shadow Grey trim. Chitin was painted with a Snakebite leather undercoat and drybrushed (on most models) with Bleached Bone. Eyes and exposed internal organs were painted Goblin Green. Various tongues and appendages got a Lich Purple undercoat and Tentacle Pink drybrush. Bases were created in a Space Hulk theme using plastic wire mesh and drybrushed with Boltgun Metal. The base edges were finished off with Ral Partha Steel. All bases were properly weighted and balanced to ensure good posture on the tabletop :)
Veturi Monarch
Mutable Hive Tyrant. Minor conversions include
a Zoanthrope / Tyrant head merge, sculpted lash whip, larger
base, and Fantasy Wyvern wings.
Veturi Queen
Standard walking Hive Tyrant. Egg wound
counters have been added to the base.
Melted clear, plastic sprue will be added soon to create a drool
effect.
Veturi Brood
Standard Tyrant Guard. One spineshield has
been replaced with an OOP Zoanthrope head (strong support for
Darwin's Theory of Evolution!). Ripper jack wound counters with
sculpted appendages have been added to the bases.
Veturi Ravagers
Mutable Warriors with venom cannons. New
ripper models have been pinned to the bases as wound counters.
Veturi Raptors
Standard Gargoyles. One has been mutated into
a Weapons Beast with Rending Claws.
Veturi Horrors
Squad of standard Genestealers.
Veturi Horrors

Weapons Beast mutation.
