Pictures of Tiger Warrior bugs?

[Xenomrph]

I just finished priming a sprue of Warrior Bugs in white, and then painting them all yellow, but I realized that I've got no idea what the Tiger Warrior markings are supposed to look like. Google image searches are kinda coming up dry, so I was wondering if any of you folks had any Tiger Warrior pictures you could share.

Thanks in advance!

well there is no official tiger warrior to be found in any medium other than the game...theres none in the CGI or movie... so whatever you like will do.

Well, I know they show up in the first-person-shooter game. I shot a few up in the demo I played several months ago.

yeah but thats hardly canon, but hey there you go! Use that!

Personally I would try to do Light Light Tan and Red...

Wait, why isn't the PC game canon? It's got all kinds of stuff from the movie, and even several bugs from the CGI series, as I understand it.

(I hope I'm not opening a huge can of worms by asking this )

meh well what is 'canon' is really really really flexible in SST, because of too many sources, Novel, CGI, and Movie all have very different takes, I just consider the largely failed FPS PC Game to be of much less value as a source material.

Should the old 2000 PC Game be considered canon?

Canon as a term is pretty silly anyways, all I'm saying is that I just don't think anyone has a particular idea of what makes an 'authentic' paint scheme for Tiger Bugs.

So back to something cooler- I never got around to modeling Tiger Bugs specifically, I always wanted to try giving them 6 legs... there are lots of possibillities to differentiate them besides the paint!

So what ARE you thinking of for a paint scheme? Once upon a time I tried doing Red with Black and therebye most of the model was Red, and I absolutely hated it lol... so I'm curious what you have in mind.

Well, I'm planning to do it pretty much in yellow, with black markings similar to how they're done on regular Warriors, and red eyes. Pretty much... color-reversed Warriors. I might fire up the PC FPS demo and see how they did it, because theirs might be a little different.

I've got a CHAS coming in the mail, and a bunch more Warriors to assemble, so my plan is to make a diorama of a CHAS fending off a crapload of bugs, similar to the CHAS's final stand in the CGI series.

People annoy me when they use the term canon. This is a miniature game for god sake, and a licesned one at that.

So?

There's a licensed miniatures game for Star Wars, and that has a very well-defined set of canon. Likewise, there's one for Aliens vs Predator.

It sorta already is in my mind, since they jacked the mantis assassin bugs from it.
