I Made Insect Wings For My Hive Tyrant

[@Ballard258]

The bigass claws was a particularly clever conversion :D loved it

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Thanks so much! I figured they'd look more unique than just using broodlord claws haha :)

[@Ballard258]

@@TrevorGoesMeep yea a spare broodlord ito canibalice is a particularly rare comodity. I made my twinkinked devourers with a cupple of spare bone sabers from the swarm lord as the arms, and the guns with some spare devourers and part of 2 a deathspitters.

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

@@Ballard258 oh nice! I wanna hang on to my bone sabres to magnetise on my tyrant in case I wanna run him as a swarmlord haha

[@Ballard258]

@@TrevorGoesMeep to have it all in a single kit nice :D becouse of the wings taking an arm soket I builded my first one as a swarmlord with magnetized arms and guns so I can run it as a walking tyrant as well. the second tyrant made it with wings and magnetize the other arm soket.

[@EdwardWB97]

Thanks for the cool idea, Im going to use this for my vespids!

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Oh yeah go for it man! :)

[@pineapplefantastico3079]

That looks pretty excellent. I'm surprised I haven't seen other hobbyists do this.

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Thanks! Glad you like it 😁

[@MarcusLSchneider]

Great work on the wings and claws

[@outofthisworldmodelsandmin898]

Loving those wings! I might have to be ambitious and try moulding and casting a set for Mortarian!

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Oh dang that'll be cool!

[@doom7ish]

That looks Amazing.

[@computersocsci]

Awesome model!

[@srenpisani4968]

Another awesome model done 😃😊

Well done, man!

Here from redit. Thank you for this video :D, you have won a subscriber

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Hi! Thank you so much 😁 Really appreciate it!

[@brandihinson7967]

Ooooo I would love to do this with my Gargoyles!

[@j453]

I really like how you name all your models. Also, your Hive Tyrant looks sweet 👍👍

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Yeah I think naming them gives them more character! :) Thanks :)

[@felixchappell1366]

Awesome kit bash :) those giant rending claws are sweet! :)

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Thank you! I'm quite pleased with those 😁

[@kennygondales]

this actually looks pretty cool! could totally be hive tyrant variant in canon lore for a specific threat or environment the tyranids are facing

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Thanks glad you like it!

[@LoLCalmSnow]

This looks absolutely amazing

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Oh hey thanks man :) glad you like it!

Excellent Work 👏

Thanks! Glad you think so 😁

[@rolfkraulein2903]

I buyed Epoxy Resin last Week, now i buyed Silicone for Molds, u just gave me the Idea for making Translucent Wings, I'll make some for my Tyranids and some for my Maggotkin Rotflys😁

[@kavyaanshrike]

the mcfarlane figures of the nids also provide with some amazing (posable) large arms i got mine for under 10 euros so its quite cost efficient xD

[@TheMichaellathrop]

Very nice, I especially like the translucent wings. I would be interested to see what you can do for some chaos mutations with some spare tyranid bits.

[@isaacixtupe8983]

Yup the wings you lit bashed look better

[@yoyoyo9669]

that is so cool man you are so inventive! and talented. great video!

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Thanks so much man! I'm quite proud of this build 😁

[@renart5870]

I really, really , really , don’t want my cute little skitarii to face this thing

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Well I'm pretty sure skitarii can shoot my Hive Tyrant off the board pretty easily 😅

[@hangarter9584]

Wow, awesome

[@moxopal5681]

very nice

[@asimovstarling8806]

I love this kind of kit bashing! The only thing preventing me from doing this kind of thing is the money to get the kits and the space to do it. I live in a very small 1 room apartment with my fiancee. Rent is expensive for the room's size. Either way, Good video.

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Oh dear well I hope that one day you'll be in a position to do these sort of builds too! Rooting for you! :)

[@joshuagraham5422]

Dude how can you be so creative 😅 Good job

[@Brickerbrack]

This is really clever, and gives me the warm and fuzzies thinking about my old flying 'Nids from 20 years ago! I wasn't much for casting, though, so my flying Warriors had their wings made from clear acetate, with PVA glue to create the veining effect...

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Oh cool! I've never worked with acetate before but that sounds really cool!

[@Brickerbrack]

@@TrevorGoesMeep It was great for that; if you get the right thickness (I think I used something like 0.8mm), it cuts easily, and is stiff enough to hold its shape while still having a touch of flex. Might be worth exploring if you want to carry on the theme with smaller flyers... 🙂

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

@@Brickerbrack nah I'm too lazy to do it for the small flyers but it sounds cool!

[@Brickerbrack]

When are we gonna get another tyranid conversion my dude??

[@danielq6163]

Great vid! You just saved me 25 bucks for the set of twin devourers.

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

More money for the hive! 😁

[@rikter22]

ultra uber badass

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Thank you! 😁

[@dllorenzochannel]

Hey Trevor what size magnets did you use for this? Doing something similar as I also believe Nids are more like bugs than bats - your videos have made me join the growing swarms of the Nids 🤟

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

I'm so glad to hear that! 😁 I used 3mm diameter 2mm thickness magnets for this guy :)

[@kastking6042]

That's brilliant. I'm building a hive tyrant at the moment and that's a brilliant idea mind if I try it too?

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Oh please go for it! :)

[@LP_9438]

"Because the Tyranids are bugs" Fun fact, Nids are actually designed to resemble Dinosaurs more than actual bugs. This is just heavily overshadowed by all the more bug-like terms that have come along through the years: Chitin, swarms, etc.

[@augustjay6436]

They were originally ripoffs of zergs so who ever said dinosaur inspired was probably fibbing just a bit.

[@LP_9438]

@@augustjay6436 I'm sorry, but Blizzard got the idea of Zerg from the Warhammer universe. And it was one of the original designers of the Tyranid race that stated they were meant to be space dinos.

[@l1zrdking]

I gotta correct you on something, you're def wrong about one thing. It turned out much better than "pretty good" its quite awesome.

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Nawwwww

[@ThatGuy53297]

How did you set up the mood for the wings?

[@iShorty112519]

Actually badass 😎

Well, it is not just insulting in your culture, it is insulting in all cultures.

Plot twist, this is not even Shrek’s final Form! I just imagine that this is how anime decide what the next form of their character should look like. Starts as green biped of about 8ft in height, ends as this monstrosity that is over 30ft tall with 4 arms! P.S. Cool conversation!

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

I bet that's gonna be the plot of Shrek 5

[@patricknellis2375]

@@TrevorGoesMeep I hope it is better than the 4th one! I don’t know how they made a kids’ movie about an adult not wanting to have children, but it still works out in the end for Shrek. I believe that it was noticeably worse than the first three movies, but that is just my opinion. Thanks for responding!

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

@@patricknellis2375 yeah I do think Shrek 4 was rather odd 😅 I did enjoy the scene with the breakdancing witches though! Personally I like Shrek 1 and 2 the best 😁

[@micheal4526]

How much does it hurt to know instead of releasing an upgrade pack, they made this loadout illegal? Because at least with my hive tyrant that I cut the ball joints so I could fit 2 into one hole I didn’t use that much extra effort and it still looks cool/passable as a still legal loadout

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

It hurts a lot, but at least I magnetised everything!

[@Kodaiva]

They fly now?

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

They fly now

[@divinezero8183]

I want some wings 😭😭😭

[@TrevorGoesMeep]

Well I would send you some but I worry about legal issues cos of the casting and all 😅

[@Flamehack]

// Dude! this is exactlly what I am looking into doing! :D My problem so far: the wings are a bit too small for my taste - so I'm thinking about getting some acryllic glass - maybe? But your option will defenettly stay in my mind for this! :D Want my buggos to be nice n buggy :D sub for this! :D
