Help - Biological Batlemap Assets needed

TheSword

Legend
Hey I thought I’d turn to the collected wisdom that is EnWorld.

I’m trying to make some battlemaps that involve Tyranid bio ships - fleshy alien spaces
resembling the interior of a body but more alien. I’d also like to add some assets to create maps of human worlds affected by the Tyranid presence. The key is alien and biological.

I’ve looked at some mindflayer stuff but to be honest everything I’ve seen is too humanoid - with humanoid assumptions about furniture etc not really working. Any ideas? To be clear I can make the maps if I can find the assets.

Artwork for inspiration.

You might look at Zerg assets from StarCraft. The Zerg are basically a mash-up of Tyranids with "Alien" xenomorphs.
 

Go to the original source: H. R. Giger.

His Necronomicon IV was the inspiration for Ridley Scott's Aliens to the point Giger was hired to work on Alien, which is very clearly also the inspiration for Tyranids and Zerg (Blizzard actually mentioned Alien and Starship Troopers as inspiration for Starcraft)

He has tons of art, including land flesh scapes...
