    Tyranid Hormagaunts, trained to reproduce the fast, low-slung alien bioform with elongated predatory anatomy, layered chitinous carapace, powerful digitigrade hind limbs, long balancing tail, and distinctive scything forelimbs. The dataset includes single creatures, packs and swarms, combat and pursuit scenes, dynamic running and leaping poses, vertical climbing, rear and side views, close-up head and claw studies, and a range of natural and industrial environments.

    The model is intended to learn the specific biological identity and silhouette of the Hormagaunt, rather than merely producing a generic alien monster with claws.

    Showcase Prompts

    1. Desert Sprint

    hormagaunt, tyranid, alien creature, 1monster, full_body, side_view, running, scything_talons, long_tail, purple_carapace, pale_flesh, desert, sand, photorealistic, cinematic lighting, A single Hormagaunt sprints at full speed across a wind-scoured desert in perfect side profile, its elongated body held low between powerful digitigrade hind legs, long segmented tail stretched behind for balance and large curved scything forelimbs extended forward. Fine sand sprays from its feet beneath hard low sunlight, revealing the layered purple chitin across its skull and back and the pale sinewy flesh between armour plates.

    2. Deckplate Stalker

    hormagaunt, tyranid, alien creature, 1monster, crouching, stalking, rear_three_quarter_view, scything_talons, long_tail, chitinous_carapace, industrial, deckplates, spaceship_interior, photorealistic, A Hormagaunt prowls through a dim spacecraft maintenance corridor from a rear three-quarter viewpoint, body pressed low above scratched metal deckplates as its long tail curves around exposed pipes. Its dark chitinous dorsal plates catch cold overhead light while hooked biological talons hover just above the floor, the elongated head turning toward something beyond the frame.

    3. Airborne Attack

    hormagaunt, tyranid, alien creature, 1monster, jumping, airborne, attacking, dynamic_perspective, low_angle, open_mouth, teeth, scything_talons, long_tail, battlefield, photorealistic, cinematic lighting, A single Hormagaunt is caught fully airborne in a violent leap over churned battlefield ground, viewed from a dramatic low angle. Its powerful hind legs are folded beneath the body, long balancing tail whipping behind, jaws open around rows of needle-like teeth and both enormous scything forelimbs sweeping forward as it descends toward the unseen target.

    4. Swarm Through Mud

    hormagaunt, tyranid, alien creatures, multiple_monsters, swarm, running, charging, scything_talons, long_tails, mud, battlefield, wide_shot, photorealistic, A swarm of Hormagaunts races across deep black battlefield mud in a wide cinematic shot, pale segmented bodies and purple carapaces overlapping as the creatures surge forward at different depths. Long tails stream behind the pack while raised scything talons form a jagged line above the charge, mud and water exploding beneath their digitigrade feet.

    5. Head Study

    hormagaunt, tyranid, alien creature, 1monster, head_close-up, close-up, elongated_head, chitinous_carapace, open_mouth, teeth, exposed_gums, saliva, sensory_pits, photorealistic, creature_photography, An extreme close-up creature study of a Hormagaunt's elongated armoured head, filling the frame with layered purple chitin, recessed sensory pits and a partially open predatory maw lined with narrow irregular teeth. Pale leathery flesh and exposed inner mouth tissue contrast with the hard cranial plates, with strands of saliva catching the shallow studio-like light.

    I don't use illu myself any more, but I have all the datasets, would need re captioning, and the trainer wants 500 buzz per shot. so yes, it's possible.

    @CatusRex I'd subsidize it, if you're willing to do that. How much do you want for the effort?
