I came across another nice printable file online. It's from the same creator as the ‘Epic’ Trygon, and it's a Malefactor!
A few details differ from the Armorcast original, but it's free! These old Tyras looked really alien and totally crazy. It's almost impossible to tell which end is which or where the head is. Today's Tyras, unfortunately, look quite normal and are easier to ‘read’.
There are no rules for this miniature in the 5th edition of 40k (which are the rules I currently play by). Therefore, I will use it as a Tervigon. I think that fits well, since the Malefactor was originally a transport option for smaller Tyranid creatures, and a Tervigon comes closest to that nowadays.
I'm not entirely satisfied with the result, but on the other hand, I don't feel like painting any more. After all, the swarm is growing steadily and the first big battle is approaching...
