Hey Jay, only bc I care: Try using some gloves using green stuff, epoxy allergies due to regular handling are a thing ❤
Only came to the knowledge recently, spread the good word and help protecting hobby people ^^
Just joined🎉
Jay: I'm gonna make a 2000 pt Dark Eldar army this year!
Also Jay: Let's start things off with a Hive Tyrant!
BEAT ME TO IT
Welcome to ADHD Theater!
lmao just my thoughts
My thoughts exactly🫣
Same tho
Babe wake up . Eons of battle uploaded
Lol 😂
I literally just did
Literally me and my wife, we both love this channel lol
he maintain my mental sanity
EOB is the best hobby channel
Normally I don't care to watch ANYONE build and paint every model they have. But Jay has such amazing passion and childlike awe, I can't help but enjoy the heck outta all these videos!
Don't dismiss the pro-quality filming and editing. These videos are ENTERTAINMENT.
“It looks weird” is actually a pretty good sign you’re going on the right direction with Tyranid gribblies.
When you were drawing the S shape, the whole world was waiting for you to continue on with a more different S shape and adding in some consumate V's.
Consummate Vs! CONSUMMATE!
Burninating the countryside
The "S" is for "sucks"
I’m so glad someone else was thinking this.
It means Hope!
1:12 - TROGDOOOOOOORRRRRRR !!!!
lol that’s all I saw too
It needs a Consummate V
Incredible conversion! i don't dig the snakey head much, but the craftmaship is top knotch
Not necessarily my style either, but I can respect a man who has the balls to freehand sculpt large parts of a kitbash.
Yeah, the nake could be a little shorter. Just amazing besides that.
The only thing i would have changed is that i would make the base of the neck thicker. Otherwise it's nice
Great base form, just needed a few scale plates or spikes thickening it towards the shoulders to even the look out.
"You know what else has hangin' sacks..." 😄😄😄😄
Thanks for another great video.
As a tyranid player, it's great to see a big painting channel actually cover tyranids in depth. It feels so sad to go looking for anything Tyranid related and only finding a few videos scattered around.
I screwed up the polarity once too and it was a nightmare to fix. Here's a tip to prevent that in the future. Take the biggest magnet you own and color one side with a colored sharpie. From now on, any time you use magnets, stick your new magnet to your big colored magnet and use your sharpie to color the same side. Now, when you place a magnet into your model, one side will be shiny silver, and its connecting pairing piece will be colored.
It’s funny because on his magnet tutorial video he did exactly this. I think he just forgot to do it this time.
I do this as I prep the models for magnetization. I fix in the body magnet, stick on the weapon/limb magnet, and use a sharpie to color the side that sticks out. That way, when I fix in the weapon magnet, I know that if I see the sharpie mark on the outside, I have the polarity wrong.
With the S shape, I was surprised at the lack of Trogdor jokes
Make an "S". Make a more different "S".
JAY! this is a great kitbash you definitely inspired me to do try kitbashing using all the techniques (sculpting, armature, and heating models!) this is as part of the hobby as painting love this model
Yeah the neck is maybe twice as long as I would have made it, but thus conversion is super cool! Lifting that body and turning it! What a treat it got!! 9,5 out of 10! 👌
duuuude you invent technices other people would do a whole channel about and give them 10 seconds of screentime you are a goddamn genious!!!
your paintjobs are super crisp, nice one
I think this tyranid already looks awesome but I do get where you are coming from.
That neck does look silly but its also creepy so i like it
This is a really cool conversion and I love it.
Man, your channel is both so motivating and also intimidating. You pull off mini projects that end up looking amazing, and your easy breezy attitude makes it all seem so joyful, but I know that if I tried to pull off this much crafting of my models, I'd just end up giving up 15% of the way through.
Absolutely love the sculpt you've gone for. Few people saying they aren't keen on the snaky neck/head shape but i really dig it! Very different and adds to that retro feel!
I love the additional sculpting you did on this one. Looks great!
I love how this one came out. The contrast in the color looks so good.
Incredible video Jay. I love how creative this was! Excited for more Tyranids content
Holy crap! That sculpt and creativity is amazing. Well done!
thats a good customization, love the tape resin addition, good job
Not a big 40K guy, I just paint minis and Gundam models for my friends. BUT this channel is such a gem because you're so passionate about your hobby. I love the little tangents and stories behind certain models or paint jobs. Keep it up!
Dude, the shading on the red is great! I've never thought of doing it like that.
I love these. Have 2, a flyrant and hive tyrant which I just built. I will build a swarm lord soon. At first I didnt love the melee weapons, but they have really 'grown on me'
My best hobby tip for magnets is to sharpie the outward facing sides of each pair when they are stuck together. Then, you know that if the non-sharpie'd side is facing out from its recess, you're good to go!
This is exactly the kind of guy I'd wanna be mates with, so much love and passion for the hobby, can see how happy he is it's infectious 🤘🏻
Love to see more of this kind of conversions
Nice work on the swim lord!! I really like you kit bash really made it your own!! Thanks gents!! Fantastic as always!!!
Noodles looks great, that slight orange tone to the highlights delivers a lot, it adds to the overall saturation and looks kinda fleshy.
The sculpting was really well done too!
He is unique and cool as funk!
I really like this conversion, agree that you needed something to bulk out the neck, some bio sacks or jaw/neck armour might have helped. Great job
What a great project! Amazing work.
Dude the sculpts look sick!
Great conversion and paint job!
for magnets i used to use magnetic ballbearings that where the same size as the joint, then remove as much of the plastic ball joint as i could then replace it with the metal one, then put a disk magnet in the reciving hole, that way had a poseable arms/joins
This is one of your best videos yet, super impressed with noodles, and as always in awe of the volume of skills you possess. Keep it going!
Tyranid hive tyrant is one kit that’s is just a joy to assemble, I built it three times once each variant in the box (flying, walking, swarmlord) later I got 2 more flying variants off eBay when what I wanted was the rest of the army then I converted the walking variant to be able to use wings so I could play proper flying circus back in the day when it was good.
That’s the most beautiful model and kitbash I’ve ever seen you do. I’d love it if you did more nids!
Whoa, Nice idea extending the chimneys! Ima HAVE to do this now
this is the best hobby channel on youtube thanks for all your vids Jay :))
That's giving some Blue Eyes White Dragon vibes
The first ones design still holds up to this day. I think it’s pretty great. Love the kitbash!
I was doubtful before the model was finished but after finishing? It looks amazing!
The head from the Norm Assimilator has a place reserved for when I come to build my Swarm Lord, can't wait!
I dig noodle's snake-neck. The "curvy tyranid" joke made me laugh lol. Also the paint-dot magnet trick was a great idea, I will use that going forward. Cheers!
How good! I finished up painting my swarmlord/hive tyrant right about the time this video uploaded. Safe to say yours looks much better than mine 😅
Those extended exhaust fins on the back with UV resin turned out amazing
I am also a hive fleet behemoth enjoyer, the 10th edition boxset finally got me to start an army of them as well
You're so awesome Jay! You inspirited me to start a dark eldar army!!
Very cool, very inspiring! Keep it up
Jay, that Hive Tyrant is amazing!!! Kudos!!
I've been using my Hive Fleet Kraken as my xenos project for 10th, definitely getting less attention than my custodes and deathguard, but when I lose motivation on those two the nids are a great palette cleanser
Amazing work, really impressive.
While I agree that swarmlord is weird, I'm really glad i saw you do the sculpting because I wouldn't know where to start with tyranids.
More tyranid conversions please
5:53 - I keep a Sharpie marker in my paint brush holder to mark the magnets' correct polarity before installing them in the model. It's saved me a ton of grief over the years. 😛
Ahhhh yes the ghilie dew. A perfect mixture of a ghille suit and Mountain Dew.
really cool build!
That long neck gives me Blue Eyes White Dragon Vibes. I think I need to kitbash a lord aswell. Love the video!
Nice conversion, awesome Paintjob, very good Base! I personally think the neck looks a little thin, but overall its a fantastic conversion!
man !! with the carnifex talons would have looked awesome! Looks pretty good
Just got my first Tomb Kings; 3 old second hand Chariots without command bits and missing a head... going to do some milliput work to build a head to replace the missing and filling some gaps on one chariot's body. Also found that I had to pin a ton of parts as well as the charioteer's spine... I didn't expect these guys to be 'this' fragile. XD
I always like the black and red look of the old editions Tyranid.
Awesome altogether! Probably asked a million times - what are the massive but great tipped brushes you use?
Was here many years ago when they made bases. Love it.
"nipple spines" is a phrase I wasn't prepared for this morning. lol
noodles and pickles gonna tear it up on the battlefield!
Love it! The base looks insane what greens did you use I’m planning to use something similar for my jungle tau.
The jungle bits are from make it epic?
That Swarmlord would've looked fantastic with the wing option.
“You know what else has hanging sacks…
… OUR PATREON”
the uv resin chimneys was an amazing idea!
Very cool as a kitbash, looks so weird and creepy. I think maybe some glowing sacs from underneath the neck could have helped the silhouette not be quite as silly looking from some angles, but from other angles it looks downright unnerving.
Great job.
Almost thought you were going for a StrongBad reference there with that S shape...anyway, I'm going with Hive Fleet Kraken for all of mine so far (Leviathan and the Xmas battle Force), except for Genestealers. Went for an inspired by Alien(s) that Midwinterminis suggested.
at this point you could sculpt the whole things out of green stuff, bravo
man its soo hard to convert nids properly but this looked awesome, and the paintjob was sick as well
Love this, so freaking much.
Looks awesome!!!
I love everything but the head in this model. I'd try to give it more mass under the throat and neck zone. Anyway it is really amazing! 😍
😎👍❤ Great conversion.
It's making me want a swarmlord 😅
LOOKS WICKED
Not sure if it would work but here's an idea for a custom paint job for the tyranids I was thinking since they devour all resources on planets doesn't that mean they devour all the metal and other ore so wouldn't a non-metallic metal paint job work for them
amazing work
Brilliant conversion, love these kinds of videos you do. Also, I spot the Fanatic Warpaints by Army Painter! How are you finding them?
dude youre so talented!
I really regret not magnetizing my Hive Tyrant and now in 10th all I run is Swarmlord. Luckily I went with all melee Hive Tyrant so it's not that big of a deal, but part of me really want to make an alternative build just for Swarmlord.
You should paint your magnets to know the polarity. Just put the magnets together and then split them and put a drop of paint on the right sides and then put them back together again. That way they will always go together even if the magnets get separated somehow.
Superb conversion 🙌🏼 Noodles best stay away from guillotines 😂
Man made the xenomorph Queen in 40k. Still a great kitbash though.
Would love to see you use the cats eye magnetic nail polish to do some cool painting effects on some minis
I find it a little sad that gw loves the short beefcake insects. I absolutely adore the large weird gangly tyranids. in my opinion there is never enough ganglyness.
Noodles is adorable and will bring death to the galaxy!
You know Jay, this means you need to build "Old One Eye"
If you gave it wings it would be a blue eyes white dragon.
Nice looking Nid if you want to make it really pop put a UV light on it ( neon and fluorescent paint glow -i use inks on eyes 🤫)
I think something that could've really helped the head is sanding down some bits on the head plate and adding maybe a big horn or a mohawk like ridge line or something
I love how it turned out though!! Kinda makes me wanna mimic something like this for my army, I love the more slender and nimble look it gives the model
🐍
The embiggining of the stacks worked great!
I loved the doom reference :D
i persenly like painting my boneswords and talons with a base of wrathe bone, then sceleton hord contrast. it looks fantastic, can recomend
