#warhammer40k #tabletopgaming #gaming After I posted a video on painting up the newer Tyranid Hive Fleets using contrast paints and very little effort, people wanted to see some classic Hive Fleets schemes done in the same style! So here you go! Kraken, Behemoth, and of course Leviathan, the poster child for #new40k! Tyranids are super easy and fun to paint, but try not to spend too much time on the hordes of gaunts running around the table or you'll never get an army finished! These mini tutorials are perfect for army painting large numbers of little 'nids but I'm also planning a tutorial on translating these schemes to a larger model. Let me know what is your favourite Hive Fleet from the 6 I've covered so far and I'll paint up a Hive Tyrant to show you how to add extra details to your main character models! I'll only be painting one Hive Tyrant(the steps for translating the schemes will be the same for all) so make sure you vote below! PS These tyrands were 3D printed for testers and were not harmed in the process. Here's the video on the new Hive Fleet schemes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av8Ia7pVxB8 Primers: Chaos Black Grey Seer (zenithal) FAQ: Adding a light spray of Grey Seer over a full coat of black primer adds a small amount of texture to the primer which gives the contrast paint more to grip on to. It also adds light and shadows which helps define the model more.
