Embarrassed by all that bare plastic hidden in boxes, I decided to do a NO SLEEP challenge and get my 5,000+ point Necron army painted in one go. Did I manage it?

Thanks for allowing us to be part of this (actually insane loco) project 😁
Loved this vid - great production values
I'm pretty sure I subbed around your 1st video.. Time has flown hasn't it
Will you do a giveaway for some of the Necrons for a milestone or other event?
confused you have this plan to do this big project but you dont stock up on necessary supplies like spray paint? and the complain about how long it takes?
I loved the first 24+ hour challenge. Please keep making bad hobby decisions, they're great.
I agree
I'll do my best!
One of my favorites too. Just like the titan videos. Sth a non TH-camr hobbyist won't ever be able to. And Hattie (did i spell that right?) is a great addition to MWM.
@@MidwinterMinis 2000 point imperial guard is a bit of a challenge in a weekend
HUGE agree
You know you've made it on TH-cam when you can have someone else build 150+ models for you! Nice job, both of you!
I did actually have to pay her though. Can you believe it? Outrageous.
Thanks! It was like a weird form of torture
@@warhatter welcome to the joys of the hobby
@@jasonmolenaar119 she was a former employee of GW 💀

"The trick to making small rocks, get your rock, wrap it in a tea towel, give it a smash with a hammer."
*stops reaching for smaller rocks*
"Ah yes, smash bigger rocks, how silly of me to reach for smaller rocks..."
*looks for hammer*
Well.... it is warHAMMER :p
To think it all started with some Sandstone Necrons. Look how far we've come.
Amazing work, Guy et al. Whoever snags those spare models will be lucky gamers indeed.
I know, such a crazy adventure, I would have never imagined!
I reply, on the brink of sleep, for the algorithm gods
Also yes, how far he's come!
Well I’m watching this like 19 minutes after this so I might as well say something. I genuinely love this channel and it’s one of my favourite TH-cam channels after a few months of watching them.
You're far too kind
The Campaign Against Living Miserably... painting a zillion Sandstone Necrons 🤔 Still, misery loves company; so it was nice seeing Hattie, Simon and Nessa all chipping in to help out.
Gotta say Simon is so sweet for showing up at 4:30 in the morning to help with this. What a guy!
Dog makes the video a 20/10 instead of the usual 10/10.
NESSA :D
It was so lovely meeting you in London. Apologies for my crutch, I hope I didn’t hold you up! Silly as it may sound, but when you bump into a content creator you respect it somewhat wrong foots you (no pun intended). The way that you made me feel ‘normal’ was really lovely and as silly as it may sound, meant a lot.
Ultimately, Guy, you came across as a really lovely person and I appreciated it.
Don't be silly matey! It was lovely meeting you too
Some serious dedication Guy (and Hatty & Simon)! Amazing accomplishment and also a great charity to donate to. Fantastic stuff
Rather you than me, I find that getting through a regular length day is enough of a challenge personally!
You may want to dig out a bigger base or something for the Reanimator that's standing in for a Doomstalker, apparently while the two models look similar the Doomstalker model is quite a bit bigger.
Noted! I will have to have it climbing on some fancy, tactical rocks.
@@MidwinterMinis apparently the base for the Reanimator is 60mm and the Doomstalker's is 90mm. It's surprising, I'd assumed they were of a similar size until someone pointed this out to me. As you say though a few tactical rocks will beef up your phallic Doomstalker!
As some one with Indomitus x3 worth of marines waiting to get painted I sympathize with this video's subject deeply.
Laughed really hard at the "Look at all these chicken"! Thanks for that one Hatty
Everytime I click on your videos (every single one indeed) the opening music just instantly gets me a "being home" feeling every single time. And also motivation to paint. And also a bit of a nostalgic and melancholic feeling. All at the same time.
Always a pleasure watching you doing hobbystuff.
I had the most genuine smile on my face when I saw the Start Collecting battle arena.
This series is something that greatly influenced me starting this hobby.
Massive congrats to three of you for all that hard work - absolutely inspirational.
Don't forget Nessa! Haha
@@MidwinterMinis of course! Well done Nesa, good job for keeping the troops in line.
Honestly Guy, I was hitting hobby block and your team just inspired me!
Loved this video. Also, your necrons are so cool. I love your cracking paint and wondered for ages how to do it till I realised you have a video on it. And it was your very first. I still reference it to paint my bases for my black templars. Thanks for being such a great creator!
Woah. I dont know if you saw my comment about it specifically but thanks so much for bring back deathwatch. Yay!
Really great to see you back visiting this army and they look great. Hattie, what a trooper!
🔝🔝🔝🔝Thanks for the feedback,

I thought i had seen you in Colchester before! It's very strange to see your home town in a 40k painting video on youtube. Great video and fantastic result. I was only today showing my 6 year old son your original Sandstone necrons tutorial, as soon as he saw it he knew that's how he wanted to paint his necrons. Now he is just hoping he gets some for his birthday in 2 weeks. I'm not sure they will end up as impressive as yours but we'll give it a go :)
Cracking video. Hatty - what a team player. Massive effort from all three of you!
Great video man. Love the inclusion of friends. Always cool to see Great people hanging out together. Keep being awesome 👌 👏 👍
stellar job.... Always loved this scheme, glad it was revisited and still worked a treat as it always did.
Love that your donating towards a mental health charity! Well done mate!

I had no idea the sandstone necrons were video one. I remember watching it when it popped up in my recommended feed. I don't know how old it was at the time, but I watched nearly every video after that. Glad to see you doing so well.
It is really wonderful to witness the evolution of this channel. Great work! Thanks a bunch for the great content.
It was interesting to see this show up as a reply to more than the directed person. It showed up in my email this morning. Lol
Fantastic effort! Keep up the good work.
Great to see you revisiting this again, and on an epic (but not Epic) scale! Fantastic content!! I'm still totally jellyfishing over your awesome studio.
My buddy was nice enough to give me the necron force from the indomitus for Xmas this past year. Very fun army to build paint and play
These are so cool! I've actually just recently sold my Necron army and on the off chance that I ever get back into them, i know what paint scheme. Amazing work to you, Hattie, Simon, and of course Nessa for helping (and in the latter case, providing emotional support) on this project!

I just rewatched that first video this morning just before I left for work, and here I am sitting at lunch seeing this. How serendipitous!
Spooky!
Amazing, just amazing. Thank you for sharing.
I'm excited to see more battle reports from you! Yours are by far my favorite on youtube and I'd be extra excited to see necrons since you're the reason I started with them. Also, if you were going to do a nurgle daemon video also, since the update's coming, I'd be very excited to see that too!
So cool that Simon came to help in the early morning! 👏👏
I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed this style of video, very fun 😀
Such a solid painting session! Well done to all involved
Can't wait for the next start collecting showdown, my favourite series in the channel!
Love the "Dr Manhattan" vibe on the Void Dragon! 😍
Nice work you three! That sure is a lot of Necrons!
That's a sick paint scheme and army!!!! Necrons are awesome, definitely my favorite army next to Chaos.
Love the colour scheme! Good job Midwinter
You’re mad, MAD! Also massive kudos to Hatty for powering through this challenge, massive respect!
This was hilarious. Would love to see more challenges like this but please don't compromise health. Looking forward to the army showcase. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
Hat's off to you.. what a marathon painting session & what results, job jobbed 👍
This army is really giving me more motivation! Here I am months into building just a 500 point Necron Patrol squad when I can. Happy that I'm almost done with it. I couldn't even imagine painting this much at one time haha
My toxic trait is thinking I could easily do this alone ( mean while I'm scared to paint even one mini 😂😂)
Amazing challenge and supporting a great charity!
Congrats on a job well done Guy and Hatty! And Simon of course!
They look lovely!

I absolutely love this paint scheme and time challenge
Shocking stuff. A cautionary tale of how painting an entire army at once gives you (shudder) Zoomer hair. Truly chilling.
Epic. Best video in ages and props to Hatty and Nessa for soldiering through!
I like midwinter mini videos but now they always make me wonder how Penny and the twins are coping.

i've gotta say, the music in this video is top notch. such nice chill tunes to relax too while painting
One of my favorite TH-camrs painting my favorite 40K army. 🍻 you champion!
Congratulations to all of you that is very impressive. Unfortunately all the auctions are already out of my price bracket but big respect for the charity idea as CALM is a fantastic charity.
I can’t lie, this video has given me inspiration to paint my chaos knights in the week I have before returning to school! Thanks Guy!!
Awesome color scheme!
Painting the whole army in one go really makes them feel connected ! Great job
Your sandstone theme got me into the hobby and has led me from a hobby newb to a pile of shame expert. I swapped the blue for a nice lime green for my dusty boys. Thank you for the incredible videos Guy.
I've recently had a operation yesterday and watching ur videos made me very happy

I'm still working on my Necrons. Highly influenced by the flayed one lore. I cannot thank you enough for the videos you've made. We all appreciate it more than you know.
What a great video! Pulled back the veil on the creative process. Industrialised art! What a great thing we have.
Everything looks gorgeous as expected, ha ha.

Love the stone-headed C'Tan... When I chose your scheme to base my own Necron army upon it, I didn't know it was such a popular choice... But come to think of it, of course! It looks great!
as always, awesome video.
Great job !

Such a cool challenge, I really hope to do something similar one day. Looked like hard work, but amazing results!

Another amazing video. Midwinter minis is the goat, and Hatty is quickly achieving goat status as well
Nice work. 27 hours for 5k points of necrons is crazy. Like two months ago I did about week to paint arena of shades DoK part. 21 minies in seven days...i was so proud :D
Guy just rolls up to hattie’s house and screams “the time is now! Get in the car henchmen!”

Sweet looking minis Guy!
I always like your videos Guy. So much enjoyment watching them. I watched as I'm kitbashing my Horus Heresy Death Guard Praetor, not stabbing my fingers with tiny drill bit at all. 👍❤️
Good job to everyone involved in the project!

Great stuff friend 👏 👍
That is hardcore, massive respect to you, Hattie and Simon. Can't wait to see the arena back again.
I've reported this telegram comment it looks suspiciously like spam I've also seen play on tabletop are getting plagued by similar.
I don’t play Warhammer or paint minis, but I love this channel. It’s so relaxing to watch!
"I love your MWM inspired Necrons!"
"Thanks, they're genuine Midwinters."

I was here since you did the speed painting ork terrain video, thanks for all you do! Keep doing what you do, also I will make a donation to the mental health charity. Once again, thank you! @Midwinter Minis
My god that was a bit of a saga, Imagine not having the dog walks to break the monotony. The fact you couldn't bring yourself to do the last bits says it all about sleep deprivation. Well done to Hattie and Yourself, hope she got paid double time!!!! Great video as always. :)
Truly a hobby hero, boss!
Just painted my first mini in 17 years! And it went pretty OK I have to say and I can only credit any of it going well to watching Guy's painting videos, he goes over techniques really comprehensively and I'm pretty goddamn happy, all I can think about is painting 🤣
Listen guy we need to talk........ Since finding your channel just before cristams I woz stunned and in awe of your miniature painting!!! (so basically am a littel bit older than you, I've got 4 children and when I woz thier age I used 2 play war hammer fantasy, orcs or skaven, but then I grew up, and forgot about warhammer pretty much until u sprung up on my you tube feed) I watched intently and all the old feelings came back, so that night I had a look on ebay n woz shocked how far this game has come n the following it has, it blew my mind.......... So guy wot am trying to say is, watching your channel has literally made me invest in a ultramarine primirus army, my wife's not very happy with u guy 😅, but listen thank you, thank you 4 makeing me remember, and wot u do on this channel is amazing keep up the good work, n I hope we see the fully built titan soon, I might get one!!!! That's if she doesn't devorce me, thank you again pal, take care n see u on the next one
I can understand the torment 27+hours of painting, but damn these challanges are so enjoyable to watch.
Amazing work!
