In the US most of the time cold is 0° Celsius and sprays don't work well when It is that cold
As soon as I saw those game screens I went "oh darn, that's Yahtzees old stuff!"
Just wanted to say love that you're promoting his stuff. All of his books are really fantastic.
Mogworld is also fantastic if you like fantasy video game tropes
Everything that man has written is gold. Differently Morphus is lovecraftain humor, and Will Save the Galaxy for Food is a fantastic, satirical take on space cowboy stories. Jam is the gray goo scenario but with strawberry jam.
It's all coming together! I'm really glad that the Midwinter Minis colour scheme looks as good on a titan as I thought it would!
Thanks matey! Yeah, I love it! Can't imagine it any other way now
@@MidwinterMinis it looks really cool and imposing with the colours, it would be a shame to cover it with snow and hide all of your hard work
The blue of your icon is the same blue on the trim and I like it.
Wow you're so right and smart
Love how even if unintentional, the rust spots make it look like the titan is bleeding
Also some missiles should definitely be missing with some weathering around the ports to make it look like the missile exhaust had an effect of the paint and metal
Hey ^^
Doubt you'll spot this but I bought Space Marine 4 off you a while back :)
So awesome seeing the project coming together since it started as I was getting into the Hobby at that time I had like 12 space marines, now it's grown to a full 2K point army and a growing 1k point Knight army!
Cannot wait to see this finished! It looks amazing, I wish I could describe how stunning it is, I am so jealous!
As a long time fan of Yahtz, it's really cool to see him getting a plug here! Awesome as well to see the Titan almost finished!!
I might have to reinstall 5 Days A Stranger to celebrate
@@MidwinterMinis I already have the book 😈 but not the warlord titan ☹️
@@MidwinterMinis The chzo mythos is so cool. Odd how that series contains both examples of his very best writing, and his very worst though… but Trillby’s Notes more than makes up for any shortfalls he might have made with the ending to his sci-fi episode.
@@MidwinterMinis Yahtzee has a bunch of books and they're all great. I can honestly recommend them all.
I love that your mom helped you paint this. My mom often helps me pick the colors for my art. Some of my favorite drawings and paintings are the ones where my mom chose the colors
This titan doesn't look fresh off the parade ground, it looks like it's walking on the end of a long campaign with a demi-legio's worth of engine kills under its belt. Also, power claw and plasma annihilator has always been the pair of guns I've found the most cool looking.
That's why I say some of the missiles should already have been fired.
nice to see your mom supporting you for so long :)
D'aaaaaaw! That ending! My heart can't take the cuteness!
Oooooh exciting! As someone who does snow bases I 100% would recommend snow on this beast, it's got to be Midwinter after all!
Also some missing missiles I think would also be really cool, but not randomly missing as real launchers would fire off in a systematic pattern.
Was just about to comment about firing patterns as well, however there is always the chance for a hung rocket that wouldn’t leave the tube. Not an ideal situation to have happen, and probably a giant pain in the ass to resolve when your launcher is that high off the ground. RIP to the low ranking ad mech loader that has to safe that munition.
Your mom is grgeous! You defnitely got your warm smile from her, super wholesome!
I'd love a video on priming basics, feels like such an important, but oft forgotten step because of how fundamental it is
"Hear me heretics, you beleive you have come here for war. You are wrong, I am war, through ice and snow I march, I bear the names of those before me on this ancient machine, hear the plasma roar, watch my missiles crush thee. You cannot win agasint the oncoming tide of winter."
Anyways, amazing work as always guy it reminds me of the old knight you painted up which was my first video on your channel I ended up viewing, I hope you are enjoying your day and enjoy Christmas eve
They've said it so much I can't help but hear "Warlord TItan" in Emil and Lukas's voices now.
Love that you got mom involved (and that she was willing), that's cool!
I loved it. I'd forgotten how much I enjoy painting.
Great to see Midwinter Mum 😊
And hear the Midwinter Twinnies 🥰
Personally I think those little shield-shaped plates on the shoulders would look good with some kind of freehand heraldry on them
I love that Guy's mom came there to help out.
Absolute Chadina who I feel Guy could paint a Space Marine for using her favourite colours.
As I found to my cost, I think you can pretty much consider the GW rattle cans as primers. They contain about 33% acetone, which melts the paint into the plastic!! Also the Titan is looking amazing, loving it so far.
That's wild. Does that mean it isn't really a primer on resin or metal minis like the titan?
@@benweinberg3819 I'm pretty sure acetone does somewhat disolve resin so I guess it works too
Looks like a proper ancient god machine, the Mechanicum would be proud. Beautiful weathering all around, and snow would definitely look good on this.
Your mom is super cool! What a fun experience to share with her!
It looks AMAZING, Guy! Keep up the spectacular work!
Help from Midwinter Mummy! So wholesome! 💙
Lol that little bit of sharpie will almost certainly come through eventually. I've done this on purpose with a painting I made with acrylic, where a hidden drawing came up through the layers of paint a couple years later. Permanent marker is brutal.
Midwinter Mum 5:03
Always fun to get family involved.
Thank you , Guy .
All the best to you and your tribe .

If the base is gonna be snow, I’d really love to see a plasma-esque-firey-red glow coming out of the vents at the back to contrast it. Even though (hopefully) the titan doesn’t run on coal, it might help it feel more alien, and therefore powerful in the landscape!
Wonderful content as always - hope you have a lovely Christmas!
We can see the finish line! The warlord looks incredible guy and I’m 100% in on having some snow. Have a great Christmas and I’m looking forward to the first video of 2023!
Snow would be amazing on the base and titan, with some melted snow effects on the warmer parts (plasma annihilator, vents, etc.) if possible. Would also be cool to see some birds/similar flying creatures flying around the top to add to the effect of just how massive it is (similar to the birds flying around the Tripods in War of the Worlds).
Always amazing to see your work Guy, I hope you and your family have an amazing Christmas and New Year. Cheers from Canada!
That would be epic
Chaos Black primer really needs to be warmed up to around 30 - 36 degrees to get the best adhesion, the first couple of layers need to be a dusting then the subsequent layers to fill in the gaps, the initial dusting coats help bring texture to large panels, washing large panels in some soapy water also helps with primer adhesion, being the impatient person I am I want to get stuck into painting ASAP, leaving the primer dry for 12 hours or so really helps with the primer rubbing off this goes double for airbrush primer. That stuff will come away if you breath at it the wrong way if it hasn't had substantial time to cure. Love this series. Excellent work.
regarding spray primer. you want to keep the rattle-can warm to help the paint flow out while spraying. As you spray the pressure inside the can will decrease making it colder. Throw it under your armpit for a few mins before starting and as you are rotating models, just keep it under there to help it stay warm. And thin sprays.
THAT PALDRON WOW! the gold is perfect into this scheme
snow could look really cool!
Just a note on the spraying when cold - it's just the pressure would be slightly less, like you said, probably no real issue and just keep shaking the can to warm it up but you'll notice a pressure loss if you don't do this - I think that's the problem most people have.
Most people probably already know this and I sound patronising as heck, but it's something worthwhile knowing, and knowing the reasons why :)
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you guys too
Happy Holidays, Guy and family. Thank you for everything you did in 2022.
As someone living in the nordics with "fun" winters. Just be sure to shake the can well and warm the can under a tap with hot water. Always works for me.
Astonishing how far this has come, brilliant colour scheme, so simple yet with all the battle damage & grime detailing. You two have done a fantastic job so far, can't wait to see all the finishing touches!
My suggestion is to have the battery looking things on the plasma cannon glowing a little would look amazing!
That being said it looks amazing and I'm excited to see more of this model!
Have a merry Christmas and a happy New year
The main colour scheme is looking great - once the wee accents are on, the whole thing is gonna look fantastic.
Kinda hilarious how many new patreons signed up to get their names on banner.
Since you asked, I'd love a video about priming and spraying in challenging weather, especially if it covered spraying varnishes as well.
For the missiles, I actually think having some of them in the process of firing would look awesome. Some empty tubes, some yet to be fired, the rest *being* fired.
Awww love to see mum involved! Cheers to you and your family mate! Missing missiles for sure, yes to snow on everything
Amazing! Have a great holiday, and I look forward to the next video next year!
i would actually say that cold temperatures may be better for some priming-purposes because the pressure in the can gets lower. A
s an old graffitiwriter i actually sometimes used to put my cans in the freezer for a while for better control and if u want the pressure back the other way you can heat it up (NOT IN FIRE) but maybe in your armpit or perhaps warm water!
I’ve been watching since Covid. It’s amazing to have seen how far you and the channel have come. Thank you for letting us hear your boys! That was adorable!
Thanks for sharing this with us Guy, the titan looks amazing. I hope you and your familly have an amazing Christmas and I wish you all the best in 2023.
The amount of work put into this has been amazing and it shows. The final result is the best warlord titan painted on TH-cam. Great job
Man that thing looks sooo glorious. Absolutely love the color.
Beautiful work Guy 👏👏👏
i think having snow on the titan would look realy cool
THIS IS AMAZING! You need to do a battle report of a small force of marines plus the warlord vs a small force of orks plus the mega gargant! Also I am thirsting for the next start collecting battle!
I love how it’s turning out! And I think snow on both would look awesome with only a few of the missiles fired. Thank you for a great video and happy holidays!
I have been watching watching since the beginning of this project, it’s been a joy watching you put together and paint this absolute monster of a kit. It’s crazy to finally see this beautiful model come so close to completion!
Guy - an awesome project comes close to completion, this has been epic :) have the greatest of festive breaks, what ever that means to you and what you need, look forward to a smashing 2023 :)
Awesome, it's been great fun watching this come together.
If you are going to add snow to the model itself, don't forget that some places should be pretty hot so no snow should stick there. I.e. The plasma gun, some cables, the vents etc. I'm unsure how it would look, but considering it's a Titan as big as a house it should be similar to a house in that regard.
Cheers, have a wonderful holiday!
There's just something so interesting about watching the construction of that Titan.
I'm absolutely loving how it's turning out! Easily one of the best looking "minis" I've ever seen
Big thumbs up for that 10 out of 10 "Deus Ex" of an Audible add my man! XD
Best of luck and merry Christmas my man, see you, hatty and the twins in 2023 😊
I’d add snow to the top of the model, as way it could be fighting on any world you like to imagine but it’s just that massive, like a mountain, that it gathers snow and ice on its highest parts
Damn! Usually I never fall for like-prompts, but I could not resist this one :( what a cute pupper
Guy, you killed the pronunciation of my last name, so glad to be a supporter of such a massive project!
"Poor puppy" in such a sultry tone made me feel like my nervous system had frozen over
Alright, this is really cool. But on the missiles: Making a few of them look fired with some cotton or some 3d printed smoke trails would be really cool.🤩
Yes! A video on priming and spraying would be excellent!
Looks amazing! Also shoutout to MidwinterMom helping with the painting!
It looks amazing!!! As far as the missiles go, I think they need to mostly be in the chambers, a few gone and already shot, a few that are being fired. Smoke trails coming from them and maybe even magnetized in place so they can be removed for easy transport.
It looks stunning
Merry Xmas to you Guy, and the little uns. It's so cool to see this titan grow with your kiddos.
100% snow already looking awsome
I love how it’s all coming together, you must be so thrilled to see it so close to completion! It would look really cool with some snow effects like you suggested, it would complement the icy blue colour scheme nicely. Have a great Christmas and New Year!
Also, a video on advice for priming would be really useful - I’ve had it in the past where some of my spray priming has turned out a bit gritty and I’m unsure about spraying while it’s still cold outside, a video on some general guidance on priming procedure would surely be a big help to a lot of people. Keep up the great work!
Merry Christmas!
This Titan Is So Badass I really like that the trim looks like Weathered Brass 👌😁😁
For the priming. People always talk about priming in the cold causing problems. But it's not the cold that causes it, it's the temperature of the can itself that makes the difference. If the can is cold it will affect the paint but if you make sure it's warm before heading out it will be fine.
That fist needs yellow black hazard stripes stat!
Some frost effects here and there would be cool too
Excellent job! Excited seeing it just nearly there!
Oh, snow will complement admirably. Go on
oh god he looks so... GLORIOUS, I love the color scheme! keep up the good work!
Absolutely awesome video. Keep up the good work.
I'd love to see sow on every non engine part and specifically the ground and only a few missiles missing. Love the project and alle the best to you and your family!
Absolutely gorgeous, what a series this has been!
Croshaw’s audiobooks are very good. His narration is excellent.
Looks amazing! Using an inkjet printer onto blank transfer paper may be the most efficient way to do tiny neat script! (Looking at the stuff that the mini historical gaming community has been able to come up with for even 15mm tanks was a huge boost for me!)
Oooo the gold in the pauldrons looks just perfect
Love the model! And it’s so nice that your mom helped! Y’all are great.
Emperor's beard, she's glorious!
Additions: I personally would love to see some heat bloom effects on exhausts etc, believe it would look very nice with the colour scheme aswell.
Gotta get those Lens Glows too for sure!
You should green putty/ 3D print half size balls, fill the rocket pods and on the tips of them. You can add little names of your patrons.
Looks amazing, some snow all over the model and base would be perfect! You might wanna consider where snow would collect the most overtime and add rust streaks running down from there as the heat of various parts of the titan melt the snow. Icicles would look so amazing too!
Maybe you could use the rest of you Death Korp of Krieg minis to decorate the base with too. That would really add to showing off the massive scale of the model. Could be an opportunity to really tell a story of how this beast of a machine impacts the lives of the soldiers fighting below it too.
Awesome work with this project as ways. Can’t wait to see where it goes next.
Hi guy, I just wanted to say how much I, and the warhammer community, appreciate what you do for us. You are such a positive creator and I am sure a great father as well. Unfortunately I cannot follow you on patreon because I am not old enough but I can assure you, whenever I watch one of your videos, I feel so much better.
Keep it up
A fan
👍👍Looking great dude, you'll never make me doubt your work ethic or your sincerity 💜👍
Awesome work Guy! Have a great break and looking forward to more brilliant content next year.
It's so great to see this project coming along! For your snow suggestion, maybe you could make icicles hang from the bottom edges of the Titan's armor? That might really sell the effect of a winter theme and make it look way more ancient!
Don't forget a coat of arms version of the Midwinter Minis logo to go on one of the chest shields. It's what the shields are there for, after all.
I’ve seen big models, I myself own a huge P1000 Ratte model, but to see not just a big model but to see it as phenomenally well painted as this is amazing, I’ve been loving this series
Merry xmas Guy & fam!
a priming video would be great thanks for asking!
Enjoy your holidays!
I like the smile on the armour panel at 4:48
