What jimmys my jangles when starting a new army is buying it, having it sit in its box and watch me buy more armies for my pile of shame I’m also never going to paint
That paint scheme is amazing - and yep, made me feel ill. I love buying a new box, building the pieces, then spending the time looking at the box art, other sources and deciding how to make it my own. My Thousand Sons Rubric Marines also have had skulls incorporated into their armour/weapons, gotta show off the results of their actions.
I love the lore of the hobby, when starting a new force I get very excited to think about their place in the universe. All of my armies have a story and through those stories I get their sub themes and guidance on what tactics I should be building my lists to support. I dont always feel the need to base my color scheme on the "traditional" guidelines of the factions I base my armies on. I tend to pick what I find interesting when painted to a tabletop standard, and whats effective to replicate. This video has me very excited about this scheme and may have been the final push I needed to start a Nids list.
I love that too. That’s the only thing I do overly like about the nids. Their lack of personality is a bit of a bummer but you can create a cool narrative around their hive fleet which is cool. Thank you so much for the comment and the support you legend.
I swore I was watching a guy with a huge subscriber count, then you saying 5 thousand (now 6 thousand) subs. It is insane how good quality your vids are and I am definitely going to keep following even though I know nothing about Warhammer, but enjoying how cool these minis are! Also as an American this is the first time I heard the term Rattle can and I am going adopt that term now for spray cans.
I got into warhammer when I was at school then got out of it. That was like 20 odd years ago now 🙈. I am considering starting again. Dark angels were my army. Might just have to take a trip into town 👀.
Very awesome! A buddy and I split the Leviathan box set and went with Tyranids myself. Being completely new to Warhammer, bought a small range of different bugs to go with the Invasion Fleet detachment to get an easier feel for the game and army rules. Having a blast with it so far.
That Tyranid looks disgusting and terrifying, I love it! I love hobbying and kitbashing, and I think my favorite part of starting a new army is finding ways to include custom bits or parts from other kits to make the new project really feel like my own, and plan how to do so in a consistent manner across the whole army.
Recently got into the hobby, have armis of marines, nids, and orks. Salamanders are my chapter choice, the nids i went with an army painters aztec gold carapace with greenskin, with dark red claws and talons. You're scheme turned out incredible for the big bad bugs.
Also, I really enjoyed the paint scheme, at first I thought it wouldn’t be as good as the black and yellow but those finished results were hard to argue with! Great choice that was very well executed!
@@morewarhammer Thanks man! I’m not sure how choosing an army works, or if how you paint them matters in game. I hear people talk about painting their minis to match certain factions, but does that give different abilities, or is it just cosmetic? Keep up the great content!
Awesome video dude, love the colour scheme! For my jangles it’s all about creating something unique coming up with the paint scheme, the theme, put that together on the models and writing a bit of lore. Big fan of zenithal undercoat, then metallics and some contrasts easy to work with and makes my average painting ability look so much better!
Firstly, great use the term jangles 🤌🏻. The zenithal approach really can make the painting aspect more appealing and less overwhelming can’t it. I do love creating my own lore too. What are you working on at the moment?
@@morewarhammer thanks bud gotta respect the jangles! I hadn’t used the technique until recently now it’s a must. Currently working on my custom Space Marine chapter just had the art work and Sigil designed so getting that printed out how about yourself?
@@morewarhammer Yeah! I cant wait, and I might steal that colour scheme, or something very similar, for my own nids. Still don't really like what I came up with and this looks good!
I watched your first video on the topic, very poignant as my Wife bought me a Leviathan Box for Christmas. Ive got some Imperial Fists and Tyranids to paint up this year. Looking forward to seeing more of your progress.
I like to do a mixture of both since Crusher Stampede and Swarm detachments aren’t great competitively and Invasion Fleet doesn’t discriminate against specific models. In other words go with “rule of cool.”
I do run them mixed. Currently running a Swarmy, tyrant guard, Haruspex, tyrannofex w/ rupture, psychophage, cannon, 2 x20 termagants, 2x 10 Hormagaunts, 1x3 von Ryan’s, deathleaper, 1x6 zoanthropes, winged tyranid prime, neurotyrant, mawloc and 1x3 venomthropes. So a nice balance between the two.
Awesome video as always! What jimmys my jangles is always rolling failed hits and saves… all the time, basically against you 😂 also painting, I get so frustrated and then move on to another model 😂
Some tips from a poor soul that’s been collecting and painting the same guard color scheme for almost 20 years: - Paint a complete miniature first and make sure you love the scheme - Use techniques that you won’t mind repeating 1000 times. If it’s not enjoyable the first time you do it, it certainly will not be enjoyable the 500th time. - buy and store unopened paint bottles for your scheme. Paint companies change their recipes and discontinue paints all the time (RIP Devlan mud). That way, if you need to add new models down the road, you have those unopened paints. - Get an airbrush and compressor with tank. It will save you hundreds of dollars/pounds and thousands of hours. - Paint an army that you love seeing on the table. That gives you joy to play even if it always loses matches. Don’t buy models because they are powerful, buy them because you love the way they look
What jimmys my jangles is when I can’t get my tau to stand in the position I want because all of their joints are made from toothpicks. #popeyethesailorrobot
@@morewarhammer I would say knowing what to implement - in relation to how you play? I’m relatively newer to playing and I find I either do not bring enough fire power and bring too much melee or the opposite. I get confused going over other peoples lists and how they decide. Like I said - overwhelmed 🤣
A little unclear as to whether jimmy jangling is a positive, negative, or context specific experience. Anyway, assuming a jimmy jangling is good it's the excitement of getting into the whole process, really, but cracking open the box and assembling the models I think is the high point until I start seeing finished, painted models start to come together. At that point, the feeling builds and gives me motivation to keep going. And assuming a jimmy jangling is bad, it's the cost of this hobby (which, yeah, it is what it is really) and the fact that I can occasionally get hyper-focused on the acquiring stage and end up with a lot of unbuilt kits.
This comment is absolutely incredible 😂. Jimmys can be jangled in many ways you are correct on that. I do absolutely love building the models too. Very satisfying.
@morewarhammer Absolutely. But if you think that's an extremely high degree, you don't know much about mini painting. Take that Nid to a golden daemon, and let me know how it goes.

The most painful of jangles to the Jimmys I find.
That is quite relatable :(
It's incredibly satisfying seeing how fast slapchopped models come together. Excellent work!
Isn’t it! 😂 even watching it in the edit was satisfying. Thanks for the comment too.

Thank you so much mate. Honestly comments like this mean more to me than I could express. Welcome to the team.

If you are getting into dark angels it’s the perfect time. If you go into the store you can get a free deathwing terminator.
@@morewarhammer oh no way. The one in Belfast?
@@laudel7 yeah they should be.
@@morewarhammer probably missed it by now.
I will get down to the shop at some point and no doubt spend a load of money 😂

Brilliant way to get into the game. I have done that many times. You both got a solid and very flexible army too. Thanks for the comment as well.

Thank you 👌🏻 mission accomplished then. I actually just did my first scenic base. I love that excitement you get with a fresh army!
Recently got into the hobby, have armis of marines, nids, and orks. Salamanders are my chapter choice, the nids i went with an army painters aztec gold carapace with greenskin, with dark red claws and talons. You're scheme turned out incredible for the big bad bugs.
The best boys too. Salamanders are so cool. Thank you so much mate. Really happy with how they turned out.
I don’t play Warhammer, but I’d like to at some point. Thanks for the tips that I hope to use one day. very entertaining. Glad I found this channel!
Also, I really enjoyed the paint scheme, at first I thought it wouldn’t be as good as the black and yellow but those finished results were hard to argue with! Great choice that was very well executed!
Thank you mate. Honestly probably one of the best times to start. What questions would you have about starting? I could make a video to help.

A bit of both, small greeblies AND big monsters
I think this is going to be the way forward.

Great video! Keep up the good work and congrats on the subscribers 😀
Thank you so much! Truly is crazy to me.
Best patreon pitch ever 😂. Sign me up 🙌
😂 thanks man
Do both! big creatures and small ones too!
I agree with this haha. You have to mix it up right?
Cool 👍
Thank you mate!
This hive fleet has beaten a squad of death guards and gen stole their resistence to sikness (might be the lore for their color sceam)
I love this idea!!
Congrats 🥂 on 5k!!
Thank you so much Brody.
Thanks for the tips Thor I love your vids!!❤
Haha you are very welcome 🙌🏻
What's that light setup you have there looks really handy
Ohh yeah it’s very nice. Great addition to help get good light coverage.

This is an absolutely top tier comment. Thank you so much for this.
What army do you collect?
@@morewarhammer Imperial Guard and Tyranids!
Wher I can bought the box in Game workshop I put "bundle set tyranids" and not apear
Sorry my English is not so fine
It was a Christmas offer. I don’t think you can get it anymore unfortunately
Thanks You
BETRAYAL!!!!!!!!!! Practice games? Painting tips? This is on......
am playing for keeps!!!
The resemblance is uncanny, are you related to Josh Strife?
btw nice video
Haha I had to google him. No relation to him but it looks like he does some cool stuff. Thank you. 🙏🏻
says linked the video here and there is nothing
Thank you, just sorted that. 🙌🏻
Where did you get that fantastic light on your desk???
I got it for green stuff world
@@morewarhammer thanks bro
What jimmys my jangles is when I can’t get my tau to stand in the position I want because all of their joints are made from toothpicks. #popeyethesailorrobot
😂😂 yep I know that feeling. You should have seen the necrons before they got updated. 🫠
Do you have a link to the light you use??
It’s from green stuff world 👌🏻
What would you say"Jimmys Balons Jangles"???
I would indeed say that. 😂
Building the list is my big issue. I enjoy building and painting but the creating of the list is just - overwhelming
I hope the next video will help. Is there any particular aspects of it that you would like me to try to cover?

Funny how matt doesn't paint anything, he sends it out to a company or someone he knows.
The video I linked is literally him sitting down and painting one model with the guy who helped him create the scheme.
Slap chop gives you an extremely high degree. Lol no, it's the absolute opposite. It's designed to get models looking ok fast.
Well that’s just your opinion mate. My opinion is different and that’s cool.
@morewarhammer Absolutely. But if you think that's an extremely high degree, you don't know much about mini painting. Take that Nid to a golden daemon, and let me know how it goes.
