Just wondering if anyone got any new ideas for Tyranid Terrain?

The spike/scythe protruding from the ground in a lot of 40K terrain, anyone got a common piece to use to represent this? I have thought about using the leg of a Hierophant, but all the ones I have are complete models, so reluctant to use these.

Terrain pieces so far I have (not my ideas)
1) The small nodes from Battle for Macrage box set
2) The large bio pool from Battle of Macrage box set
3) Three Devourer weapons pointing out from ground
4) Three Monstrous Sythes? pointed to the centre with three Deathspitter barrels pointing outwards
5) A larger Deathspitter like barrel with a Gargoyle shooting out of it

I think I seen someone use the tail of a gaunt protuding upwards (butt in the air lol) with a deathspitter barrell attached. Havent tried this yet.

Basically I've built a large mountain terrain (with tunnels and caves) that will be my Tyranid Hive, but need lots of decoartions to make it more Tyranid like.

Had a quick look, not really very Tyranid looking.

the concept behind tyranid terrain is that its all biological and all of it is either for "Spawning" or "Digesting". When tyranids attack a world they literally are digesting all the biological material present on said world. So creeping tubes, pools, current terrain with biological "stuff" added to it would all be good.

So lots of green stuff, guitar wire and maybe some resin water effects thrown in there would be good idea.

Also, if you have tyranid (or any other infantry) models to spare you could have a pool piece made up where they are crawling or being drug into it. When a tyranid is not useful anymore they throw themselves into digesting pools.

I just re-posted my 3 pages of 'Nid terrain, that I first posted in Feb. So that might give someone ideas.  And I have the DRM Bug Terrain SIB, it is very cool ! Get it !
