      Hey Jay, only bc I care: Try using some gloves using green stuff, epoxy allergies due to regular handling are a thing ❤

    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.

  • @ssreeser95
    @ssreeser95 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +27

    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.

    • @flyingflyer9506
      @flyingflyer9506 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      It’s funny because on his magnet tutorial video he did exactly this. I think he just forgot to do it this time.

    • @Totema1
      @Totema1 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

    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

  • @AsgeirrSpjuth
    @AsgeirrSpjuth 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    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! 👌

  • @Crackawacka95
    @Crackawacka95 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    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.

  • @UnIvErSaLsOuL94
    @UnIvErSaLsOuL94 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    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!

  • @DungeonTheory
    @DungeonTheory 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    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!

    Noodles looks great, that slight orange tone to the highlights delivers a lot, it adds to the overall saturation and looks kinda fleshy.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

  • @400KrispyKremes
    @400KrispyKremes 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    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.
