One of the things I wanted to explore with my contributions to the Nestorian Infestation was the way the airborne tyranid spores released by the genestealer cultists would corrupt all aspects of life on an Imperial world, and what better way to do that than with some tainted servo-skulls?
Where once these skulls served the Imperial authorities now they have become slaved entirely to the will of the cult, the inflated gas-bladders growing from them swollen with more spores, ready to corrupt yet more loyal citizens.

Haha – at first glance I thought these were skull-headed parrots! 🙂 That would have been neat of course, but a closer look shows these to be even better – I love the idea of the brood’s corruption spreading to all things… sinister!

Skull-headed parrots would be excellent, very much the sort of thing a piratical rogue trader would want around. Definitely an idea to squirrel away in the back of my brain for future inspiration…

“Lurid” was the word in my head when I was painting it. Once or twice I felt tempted to tone it down but I stuck to my guns and here they are (for better or worse!) :-p

I’m glad you were stuck on your guns.

That’s what happens if you’re not careful with the super glue…

Sigh….. many time I’ve had a laspistol stuck to my thumb.

A creepy idea, well executed. The vibrant green works well with the more subtle colour choices of the skulls and weathered robotic arms.

Thank you 🙂 The green was always going to be something of a gamble, I prefer more subtle colour schemes, but I think it came together in the end.
