GET OUT IF MY HEAD OLEASE HELP ME PLEASE GUY PLRSS LET MEOUT
Hey idea you could write on the panel you want to put the pateron names repsect the fallen and names below
Listen to horus rising!
love your greyhound you have a great community
"the clamps" now I'm thinking of Futurama lol.
For the parton names it be an idea to do up banners that hang off the Titan for people you want too give special recognition too.
Nice idea!
I dig it!
The house name should be either house of Patreon or a version of it or house of winter with the same idea of banners.
@@MidwinterMinis just print everyone's names in really tiny script and have em as the prayer seals etc. all over the thing.
sort of like, if you get em printed in a nice gothic script, on parchmenty type background, that's yer prayer seals right there.
That is a great idea! It would totally badass.
This thumbnail is a goddamn work of art
Oh shoot it’s Dr Simon Clark
I think it's based of a real work of art, but i forgot how it was called.
@@oddtomato1049 The Creation of Adam!
@@SimonClark Thank you kind sir.
Dr. Simon Clark needs to become the catalyst in the 2022 Hat Films x MWM x Simon Clark pancake day challenge
The JB weld attempt made me actually yell out "No!" Audibly like I could stop it
SOMEBODY STOP MEEEH.
@@MidwinterMinis I just finished up a phantom titan and I recommend the slower setting JB Weld that comes in individual tubes. I use superglue to hold joints in place while the JB weld sets. I also leave it over night just to be extra safe.
@@MidwinterMinis seconding what Mat said above, the individual metal "tubes" are easier to control, and the slower setting JB weld is also more forgiving and works well.
@Midwinter Minis Having worked with 2-part epoxy resins for automotive repair, resin garage kits, and wood working applications for almost 40 years, Mat is absolutely correct. Those syringe applicators suck. Whether you use the fast set 5 minute, or the slow set standard, separate tubes are far easier to use, and more precise. You can measure your amounts by squeezing out two equal length lines of resin and mixing them together on a piece of scrap plastic or cardboard, then apply to the model with a disposable brush or toothpick.
It was a bit like watching a dude get hit in the nuts. LOL, sorry @Midwinterminis Also, remember gorilla glue is not for use as a hair gel.
Thanks to Guy and gamers like you, we've raised $9,665 for Parkinson's research in the last year. I'm shaking just thinking about it.
Maaan you didn't have to say shaking lol
Love your work man, thought id put that here, anyone else who sees this, go subscribe to him, a genuine person in all manner of speaking.
Buh dum tiss 😂
thanks for the titan head!
😂😂😂
Did guy just nonchalantly reveal having twins on the way??? 5:05
Ya I loved that getting snuck in lol
It was actually revealed in his last video when he painted Judge Dredd in different styles
I bet gork and mork was a suggestion by guy but penny shut it down immediately

“I remember the first time i saw a titan. That...thing, could put fear into even a space marine. The ground shook as it took its first step. It then bellowed its horn , the sound was deafening, it charged up its volcano canon. Our sergeant told us to take cover but some of us were so in awe of it they didn’t. The cannon fired and I could see through my hands and some poor guys were just evaporated on the spot. We all got out of our dug outs and saw nothing more than a charred wasteland, we were all awestruck, some of us even burst into tears and some were sick. We felt worthless at the point, emperor knows why we still fight if a titan can destroy an entire army in a fraction of a second.”- unknown guardsman
So firing the vulcano titan is akin to detonating a nuke just by being near the cannon, not even the impact point ? Jeez ! It's not every day we see a description of such weapon in action.
@@WardenOfTerra weirdly specific, could have just went with spacemarines
@@JJJBunney001 its about deathwings new rules, they can never be wounded on better than a 4+
That happened to my buddy Luke once
Sad that those guardsman were obliterated by friendly fire. Their lives would've been better used assaulting a trench. Listen to your superiors kids
JB Plastic Weld is actually the Venom Symbiote. Also, for the Patron names as script, you could make them into transfers and apply them that way. Might be easier than trying to hand paint a thousand plus names onto the titan.
That's what it reminded me of!
When I was doing model assembly in my teens, I was amazed just how superior Japanese gundam models were compared to the the western tank/plane hobby stuff. Not only were the gundam models more complex with joint articulation, they were also snap fit with no warping of the plastic to trim or fix. Seeing just how...rustic this $k model is makes me wonder how on earth did GWS's figurine division survived to this day.
MidwinterMinis: "There's some bad cuts and bubbles from the production"
Me: "Sweet, free battle damage!"
That's like me when the parts don't fit exactly due to bad casting, the death guard never really maintain their equipment that well anyway.
Guy pretending to not know how to pronounce Bukkake is gold.
this
From now on it shall just be known as "The cake word" :D
... the icing on the cake, one could say.
@@MidwinterMinis evil
The sport of kings!
16:38 “what is that hooman, stop it, get it away from m-, actually that really nice.”
I'm getting a commission to build one of these obnoxiously massive lads, cheers for the videos breaking down what actually has to be done.
Edit, to make the magnets work better on the smaller Reaver titan, I went with 3 10x2mm in either section of the arm peice of a reaver to make sure they kept their strength on any angle. You'll want to go stronger than that, likewise I magnetised the waist using 50mm magnets, so you may need more and larger magnets for a model as large as that.
Good to know! Thanks for the advice :) Good luck with your build!
Good luck
You could also pin the one part and drill a few holes in the other part, so that you have a few poses and in wont bend if both parts a horizontal and the magnets stick better together.
“You just need some warm water, with a bit of dish soap mixed in, an old toothbrush, and school tea towel you made at primary school and somehow STILL possess”
FTFY
I mean, I still have mine >_>
(Honestly, I was more surprised to see that other primary schools had done the exact same thing as mine..!)
So excited for the final build/paintjob!
Living vicariously through Midwinter Mini’s hobbying!
Same lol
Literally EPIC
That's fine, Guy is also living vicariously through his hobbying. ;-)
One of my Audible 40k favorites: The Lords of Silence. Interesting look into a Deathguard warband.
petting the dog with your titan parts is an essential part of the building process
also, highly recommend Limmy's book "Surprisingly down to earth and very funny" its class.
@@drpenny9844 SHE'S TURNED THE WEANS AGAINST US
@@MidwinterMinis REQUIEM!
A tip for that kind of two-part epoxy glue. Save up any little disposable plastic tubs you would otherwise throw away like yoghurt pots, I especially like these little oval plastic dishes that soup stock comes in. Use them to mix the glue in and only mix a bit at a time as yes it will start to set within minutes of mixing. Then just throw the solidified mess away afterwards.
I didn't know you were having babies, when was it announced? Just now? Anyway, congratulations!
Name suggestion: gork and mork
WAAAAGGGGHHHH!!!
Alpharius, Omegon.
Rogal and Portarabo
Magnus and Arimahn
YES
You're having twins? Congratulations you two!
For BL recommendations, Genevieve is great for Warhammer Fantasy and Eisenhorn is good for 40k.
Thank you! :D
@@MidwinterMinis yeah! That is so exciting.
I loved the Genevieve novels. Good shout
Dan Abnett's black LIbrary books are all just a step above the rest. I would especially recommend the Eisenhorn series, or Gaunt's Ghosts. Special mention to Sandy Mitchell's Caiaphas Cain books too.
The books are very well written and Toby Longworth's narration is excellent.
I've heard lots of people recommend Eisenhorn!
@@MidwinterMinis Please do, they are amazing! wont regret it.
For Black Library, I'm currently reading Blackstone Fortress by Darius Hinks. You have done the models, now read the book set in that setting.
That might be the best and smoothest audible ad I've ever seen. I've had audible for almost two years but you've sold me
So, what is your Titan's grimdark name gonna be? You NEED an edgy name for that thiccc boi
Some Guy. First of his name.
Probably "Mr Sticky" by the time I've ruined it with all that glue ;)
I mean ' Thicc Boi' is pretty good.
@@MidwinterMinis You gotta Grimdark that name! Let's go with "Tenacious Belligerent". Yeah, because I googled it and apparently Tenacious meant sticky way back.
Oh, and for BL, I STRONGLY recommend The Infinite and The Divine. It's more light hearthed than most 40K, and it's a great interpretation of Necrons. The first act is basically Trazyn and Orikan going Spy Versus Spy over the McGuffin and whacking each other like grimdark Looney toons
@@MidwinterMinis i can hear mr blobby in the distance
This is the best warhammer channel on TH-cam. I appreciate the heck out of your chill, fun energy.
You better name the twins Guy jr. and Gal
No
I'll pass this on to Penny...
Congratulations to the growing midwinter minis family
So im not the only one who noticed that
No
Omg the cloth with all the faces, we did that at school too each student drew themselves and put their names under it, thats really sweet to see! :)
Hey, on the JB Weld, I do have a tip for you. I've never watched your channel before, this is my first video from you I've seen, and I've not gotten to buy and make any models for 40K yet, as I'm fairly new to getting into the physical part of the hobby, but I've used that type of adhesive before for multiple practical applications outside of hobbies. NEVER buy the combination tubes of that stuff unless you're working on something much larger than a 40K model. The stuff sets incredibly quickly once the separate compounds are mixed, as I'm sure you noticed, so buy the more practical packs that have the two different compounds in separate tubes. And since those tubes are made for dispensing smaller amounts of the component compounds, it's much more manageable for smaller things such as models and other hobby applications, unless you're making a large scale model of an entire landscape with permanent fixtures that need to be adhered onto the base. My other tip regarding that type of adhesive is to always mix it on something you don't care about if it sets before you can finish using it. A torn off piece of a cardboard box, an old piece of scrap wood, etc. Because once that stuff sets, it's almost impossible to clean it off of what you put it on.
I understand if you don't see this, but don't write off that type of adhesive for one bad experience! The form you bought it in just isn't suited to your needs, and it's your first time using it. It's a damn powerful adhesive, and very useful both in hobbies and practical applications, so don't write it off if you don't have to. Especially since it can bond things more conventional glues have difficulty adhering to.
Looks great - the Gaunt's Ghosts series are brilliant WH40k novels. Good luck on the babies - we found the NCT to be a brilliant support network.
One tip I read when using resin and super glue, if you score with a knife or scalpel the contact surfaces you are planning to use super glue with, it gives the glue something better to grip and holds firmer than smooth surface to smooth surface. So those finger joints and when you do the toes would be a suggestion.
'Er.. Bu..cake..bake?' 🤣 Love Ur vids man and excellent charity donations.
Keep it up dude 👍
Thanks Adam!
The thumbnail is PURE GOLD!
40k Audiobooks: Horus Heresy books 1-4; Eisenhorn quadrilogy; Ravenor trilogy &Chaipus Cain for the funny!
I second this but will also add Gaunts Ghosts too!
Listen to these guys, they know what they're talking about! (Basically, anything by Dan Abnett 😁).
My Audible library is sitting at 183 at the moment, yes I've been an audio book fan for a while. Put it on whenever I'm doing something monotonous, washing up, on the motorway in the car or on my motorbike, out for my daily lockdown walk etc. I was a big reader, but have barely read anything in the last few years.
The thumbnail and title makes me nervous.
Welcome to my world
😆 that tea towel takes me back, we made one in lower school back in 1996 when I was like 6 ... Still got mine too. I kinda want to see your self portrait 😆
The 4 people who disliked were getting blasted so hard in live chat one of them un disliked
Gotta love it when misaligned children beg for negative attention, then can't handle it. It's something the participation trophy generation is sorely lacking.
I highly recommend roughing up any surfaces are you are gluing together first. This will give a better surface for the glue to adhere to.
Listens to George Orwell, MY MAN!
AKA the news
Best warhammer channel in existents u have really got me back into warhammer over lockdown and thanks for all the painting tips btw
For items like the wrist, you can use large ring magnets with metal rods so that you can position them and effectively ignore shear force. This will still allow you to rotate the joint, but they won't come apart easily. (Be aware you need strong glue, but sometimes the bond will be stronger than the resin.... which can produce issues.)
I've listened to I Strahd, Memoirs of a Vampire about 12 times now. A wonderful listen if you're into the dark gothic nature of vampirism.
If you haven’t read Ciaphas Cain and somehow haven’t heard of it, it’s a fantastic 40k dark comedy. It has made me laugh out loud multiple times. Such as the time he tries to run away from a battle, only to run straight into a group of tyranids trying to pull a sneaky, ending up as an unintentional hero.
Last summer I bought my self a forge world mini the taunar supremecy armour as a treat for working so much during the first covid lockdown and that took me a few days to build and was a huge project for me looking at this model is scary but I'm loving seeing how it comes along keep it up 👍👍😳
Weird way to announce having kids, unless you already did and I missed it. Anyways, congratulations on having twins! Best of luck to you and Penny and all the best wishes.
Dspiae produces a tungsten "triangular" chisel. It's basically a fancier modelling knife that lets you scrape away at imperfections/flashlines/etc with ease. Really nice to have
Don’t use any of the resin or glue in your hair as gel.
Thanks to your channel I just bought my first models (celestine), so far the building was fun, the painting is what I'm scared off.
TWO BABIES?! Congrats and best of luck!
Better title
"Warhammer fan has girlfriend?"
Original...
@@Waddywoos360 Ita funny cause its true
Dark Harvest is the first audiobook ive ever listened to, i borrowed my mates audible to do so. I highly recommend it, both the book and the narrator are excellent.
okay, so i don't follow all the other fancy social media whats-its, but tell me....
WTF WHERE IS THE REST OF DA BIG BOY TITAN!??? ITS BEEN 2 GOD DAMN MONTHS! ALL YOU GIVE US IS ONE CURSEDED HAND? and thats it? just gonna end it there? £1,000 pounds well spent?
OMG CONGRATS!!!!! Twins sounds crazy but at least they come in less pieces than a titan
I'm so hyped for this series and building the Titan. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.
Man, you just have one of the smoothest easy to listen to voice I've heart yet.
You'd make a good audio book reader.
you can always use 2-5 smaller magnets (1.5-5mm) in a small circle/triangle or whatever you need to make it equal, or to assist other larger magnets to have stepped poses instead of infinite rotation, and id recommend a Dremel as well, since they can spin slower and wont melt the hole youre drilling as easily, and are far easer to wield
As I'm watching/listening to this I'm sanding sprue point connections on ladder for some terrain. So I totally understand where you're coming from on that.
seriously love the fund name
Any epoxy glue like that will work great, u can get clear ones, and u can get them in different tubes also instead of those syringe style ones, but u’ll need to mix and try to get the mixture correct, the syringe pushing both out the same time makes it easy to get accurately 50/50 mix ☺️
Perfect timing, I just got a resin kit after having only been using the plastic models up until now. You’ve saved me a lot of hassle with this, thank you
Those towels with the faces on we drew as kids 😂😂 what a throwback
For the magnet 'tilt' maybe just at a couple of pinholes and a paper clip, you could ad multiple holes around one side so it can hold safely in place in multiple different posses
Now this is incredible. Can't wait for more
I've recently been listening to "Mechanicus" (the Horus Heresy novel) on Audible. As someone who plays Iron Warriors, and adores the Adeptus Mechanicus' lore, "reading about" the Martian Civil War was an obvious choice for me. There are also plenty of Titans in the book, too!
Great story, great characters, great detail, great narration, great pacing. Highly recommend for any Ad Mech fans. :)
The Night Lords Omnibus is a fantastic look at an Unaligned Traitor Company and the failings of brotherhood inside of it
my favorite 40k novel form audible is : the buried dagger ( mainly because the narration is soo good on this ), Brutal kunnin ( its just fun )
Much respect for your choice in illustrators, Sorayama's work is amazing!
I love the sense of humor The Algorithm seems to have some times. I click on this video talking about making a Titan hand, I get the Turbo-Tax ad about the guy becoming a hand model.
That H.G wells collection is awesome on audible. The narration of war of the worlds by David Tennant is so good 👌
Loving the classic primary school tea towel guy
omg you have one of those classic teatowels from primary school in the UK. Nostalgia!
Very cool, my first stop before I start woking with resin. Really appreciate your detail my dude.
You should investigate accelerator for the superglue- you put glue on one part, accelerator on the other and they stick pretty much instantly. Also you can use baking soda and superglue as filler.
My fave cheap file trick is to buy fine graded wet and dry sandpaper and cut strips of it to glue to card or double sided tape. That way I can make files to whatever size I want and have them bend around parts without them ripping easily.
I didn't really have any idea of the scale of the titan before this video. It's going to be about the size of a two-year-old... Awesome!
Classic British school kid kitchen towel with hand drawn faces on it. I think my mum still has mine!!
Prophet of the waaagh!
by guy haley
probably my favorite book on audible right now, got the charm and comedy of orks and grots!
Water transfers of the names makes the most sense to me - with perhaps biggest donors getting a banner or something :)
The highlight of this video was deffo doggo brushing and scratches with resin hand ❤️
I am reading Dune right now for the first time. Really enjoying it. Great work so far Guy!
*Gets stroked by robot hand*
Dog: A good boi scritch is still a good boi scritch
I never expected a semi-competent modeler to apply an obvious two-part adhesive straight to a surface, haha. I find it really helpful to buy the packages of mini portion cups and a bunch of tongue depressors to mix any kind of 2-part adhesives, epoxies, or anything else I don't want on a palette
Top tip for the Irwin vice grips, use some masking tape over the grip pads to reduce glue or paint on them 👍
10/10 use of the classic primary school tea towel.
Nice tea towel! Lovely bit of British culture right there haha. My mum has loads of these from my school years
My horror when you put the JB weld directly on the model without mixing first! 😱
JB Kwik (fast setting version of normal stuff) is amazimg for securely bonding together heavy, or load bearing parts. Just use superglue for smaller stuff, with optional baking powder to cement it together for good :)
Great video!
I use that JB plastic bonder style two part epoxy at work. You should get a disposable mixing nozzle.
They mix it in the nozzle and have a fine tip.
Epoxy resins you have to work somewhat quickly with. Once the two precursors mix, you've basically started a chemical timer. On the plus side, the bonds are suuuper strong.
Realmslayer is only 5 hours long but it is an audiodrama with background music and noises and Gotrek is played by Brian Blessed! It's awesome
Emperor or Conqueror series by Conn Iggulden also worth checking out and not Warhammer related
First time with epoxy or other mixing components glues is always a shock. Next time remember that a syringe dispenser help you in pression and vaacum effect too. To avoid extra or sudden leaks and other annoying effects act thinking that you can push or pull pistons and the managing of these twin-components stuff will be much easier.
For future reference you can get mixing nozzles for the JBweld that makes life a lot easier just don't leave them attached when your finished
adapt and overcome, comes with experience...thanks for sharing everything, makes it easier not to be perfect and easier to enjoy the way you present with your commentary, good work like always.
btw, those thin sheets of plastic between parts is due to to high mold presure on the mashine when the part was made... its considered a "flaw" (i work with plastics)
We are legion (we are bob) by Dennis E. Taylor is one of my absolute favorite sci-fi books (and the series is absolutely amazing).
A great look at self, AI, space travel and cloning among other things. It also has a very warm sense of humor.
For BL: Anything by Aaron Dembski-bowden, but especially Betrayer, Black Legion, Helsreach and Spears of the Emperor.
Now that your journey has begun just wait till you want all the weapon and head options.... At this rate you are probably gonna be finished painting your warlord before I even start painting mine. I would recommend just using regular JB weld and quick weld since they come in separate tubes so you would waste less epoxy. Also dry fit everything and look at the pretty pictures to make sure the finger debacle doesn't happen again.
Also if you want some magnet dimensions I used on my warlord I could reply to this with the list of magnets I used.
I can't wait to see it all built
for magnet-fitting heavier parts, you can use a peg/drill system to mitigate lateral force.
in military modelling circles you can get custom decals made up, maybe that could work for the Patrons names.
That thing is crazy, Im really excited to see how it comes together.
This was the most whole some video related to warhammer 40k models I've seen!
