Colored up these Hive Fleet Kraken Nids getting shot at, the hue of the explosions should give a hint as to whose doing the shooting.Original artist unknown.

Your Tyranid colourings are so neat, it makes them seem even more threatening, great work!

Really great colouring on all these pieces of artwork, all of which I'm greatly familiar with.
On all of your stuff though you really need to add copyright information (especially on those you don't know the artist (as Games Workshop seldom credit the artist as they own all copyright since the job was done under the company, for the company)) that looks like something like this (and feel free to copy and paste this, but you should add to it.):

Oh and actually you might find that some of the artwork is ยฉFantasy Flight Games that was used under license to Games Workshop in some of the Codex/Rule Books/ Army Books.

Nice to see the T'au lads splatting Nids, as only they can.

I only colored it, but thanks very much!

wow, this looks spectacular!
Tell me, what exactly do you mean by colorist? Do you receive a line drawing (black and white sketch) and add in all the color yourself? For what are these illustrations?

Couldn't have said it better myself, that's exactly what I do.
Granted, things are far easier when the pictures have already been shaded so really all I ever do is just make sure the colors look right.
These illustrations are from Warhammer 40k, it's a fairly popular sci-fi setting.

well, to color that good you must be a pretty good illustrator yourself. The two usually go hand in hand. Do you make your own illustrations and drawings as well.
Nevertheless I am very impressed. Do the guys make use of a colorist to save time so they can produce more drawings? probably, I guess. There is no conceptual art industry here in South Africa, so I don't know much.

Oh how I wish my drawing quality was as good as my coloring, but it is not.
I'm not a professional by the way, I just do these colorizations to hone my skills and for my own enjoyment, so no company backing me of any sorts.
