In this video I guide you through how I painted a whole tyranid army/ hive fleet in around 27hrs -
The models i painted were -
The Swarmlord
a Hive Tyrant
a Trygon
Old One Eye
9 Carnifex
3 Dimachaeron
13 Warriors
a Broodlord
25 Genestealers
and 3 Hive Guard
thats around 3500 points!
The is scheme based off the Protomolecule Hybrids in the Amazon TV series 'The Expanse' @theexpanse4026 directed by Breck Eisner and based off the book series by James S. A. Corey, which is a pen name used by collaborators Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck.
My concept for this army was what would it look like if tyranids were infected with the Protomolecule from The Expanse? The result is a grimdark and scary, super alien, army of bugs!
This army is also what would be referred to as NIDZILLA - an army comprised of lots of big tyranid models!
Brent (@GoobertownHobbies) and Casey (@eBayMiniatureRescues ) from @PaintBravelyThePodcast were actually were discussing what a series of minis from the Expanse would look like - this is while I was finishing the army! haha.

This channel is about painting converting and kitbashing miniatures for your warhammer & d&d games, Age of sigmar, warhammer 40k games and Necromunda in a Grimdark Grim Dark Style most of the time. I will paint more Space Marines, maybe even Space Wolves, Sisters of Battle, Stormcast Eternals, Eldar Aeldari, Age of Sigmar armies too cities of sigmar, more chaos space marines, painting scale models or miniature busts in the future. I've done how to paint guides you could use them for how to paint d&D I may do a conversion guide for Darktide or Dark tide however it is spelled. And in the future I will build and paint some terrain for my miniature war gaming wargaming hobby. leviathan box out soon for warhammer 40000 40k 10th edition.
