Born from the splintered lineage of Hive Fleet Kraken, Hive Fleet Maweth is a pallid and aberrant Tyranid swarm twisted by the lethal radiation of the Maweth Sector’s pulsars. Exposure to these stellar anomalies has scarred the fleet’s genetic matrix, leaving many of its bioforms partially stripped of pigmentation and riddled with unstable mutations.

  1. Wraithbone Spray the miniature with a light primer (Grey or Wraithbone).

    This helps achieve the pale albino skin and keeps colours bright.
  2. Cadian Fleshtone Paint the whole fleshy areas

    The goal is a very pale organic base for the albino look.
  3. Volupus Pink Cover the skin with a thin purple wash.

    Let it settle in the recesses to create depth and subtle alien tones.

    This gives the model a mutated, slightly bruised appearance instead of plain white.
  4. Pink Horror for tongue, eye, holes
  5. Tyrant Skull drybrush on the armor
