No doubt.

Love the butterfly theme- perhaps lean into that, add wings, experiment with iridescent paint, pose them on grotesque flowers, add butterfly’s weird curled tongues.

Meaby add lore, prehaps they use visual patterns to confuse and overwhelm and consume plant biomass to create high sugar/calorie food for bioforms to improve thier metabolism

Murray never fails to surprise me with his paint jobs. When he's starting it all looks super sloppy but as he finishes it looks AWESOME, it's a really unique style. Also, those conversions are awesome, made me really want to try kitbashing minis myself.

oh man, that gun-out-the-chest conversion is PERFECT! I've always thought Tyranids holding guns in their hands looked a bit goofy, but was never really creative enough to come up with a good conversion I liked. Might have to try that one out!

It helped me to recognize how natural adaptations in reality use what material is already there to create new forms. Because a Tyranid bioform can have so many variations, there must be some kind of base "template" from which new adaptations evolve. It makes sense that, in the way that bat wings have integrated finger and joint structures, the adapted weapons--usually a different bioform, symbiotically joined--would be integrated into the already-existing hand and claw structures that the bioform template already possesses. More than anything, biology strives to be calorie-efficient when it can. Why waste calories iteratively evolving a bespoke genetic expression for each distinct adaptation that might arise when you can just adapt one gene to express differently in the presence of certain other symbiotic relationships?

@Stephanie Aensland 3 I like your funny words magic man.

It’s nice to see the scratchy drawings for the ideas, showing that if you’re not the best artist when it comes to drawing you can still get the idea down and use it as a base for what you want to do with your model.

It helps that he’s a really talented drawer too, even if the shapes are basic, he perfectly captures the look.

The guts Hanging between the blades are freaking awesome. I'm definitely stealing that!❤️

Man Murray I'm so glad you're part of the tabletop team. Seeing your features I'm always impressed and learn something new. Thanks to all the patrons to allow these guys to take their time with their process. It's been awesome and inspiring following each of these series.

"Oh cool a Nids painting vide... OMG THAT CONVERSION THIS IS AWSOME."

I forgot, how much I loved the diorama, such a cool mixture of my favorite colors. I can't wait to see your tyrannids crush, the space bears, sisters, and tau warriors.

Need more Murry and their tyranids. So flippin cool. Absolutely love your conversions!

Hey Murray. Next time you do the running goop effect mix PVA and Superglue. Both glues will allow you to stretch it out and drip it down better than just your glue snd paint mix

I used to have a custom Tyranid army, till my Septic tank backed up and destroyed all the models. I love seeing people work on their own concepts for these little buggers. One of my favorite things to do with my old models was to make a heavy weapon variant of the Devourer weapon. I did this by taking two devourers, snipping off the 'barrel' part of one of them, shaving the bottoms of both devourers flat, and then gluing the spare head to the bottom of the first. This made for a beefier looking weapon overall. I liked to put these on warriors and Carnifex's. As they were a little too bulky for gaunts unless you were very good at reposing. Hope to see more space bug goodness from you guys! Keep up the good work Murray!

Seriously, Murray is amazing! He brings such a unique and different vibe to the whole channel. Amazing!

This is really really nice idea and great execution. Love those guys and I hope you'll spin kill-team into full army some time :D

The colour scheme goes really well with the hive fleet name. I also really like incorparating the weapons into their bodies as a proper organic part of them. I'm eventually going to do similar when I get around to my Tyranids.

Love the custom army videos. Nothing more entertaining and inspiring than to see someone crafting their own models and making something truly unique

Murray has such an awesome, relaxing voice. This was a pleasure to watch and listen to.

These warriors look just amazing for a custom hive fleet! nicknamed my Tyranid prime w/ 4x boneswords the Swarm Prince. Not quite a Tyrant or Swarmlord, but still acts as a commander in their absence.

Those jotunns look amazing, love your paintwork Murray. Need to see more of these conversion contents please

Murray has done nothing but KILL it! These are nasty in the best of ways! The distended jaw and the stretchy flesh is so unsettling and really gives these guys something special! Not to mention the painting itself is just beautiful. I love this so much, what an amazing job well done!!!

5:30 - ahh, chaos black nailwork :D

Amazing conversions! I'm genuinely impressed. If you ever get to build a whole army, you ABSOLUTELY NEED to include a Mawloc and a Haruspex, they look like they fit absolutely flawlessly in with these. In the meantime you should convert a Parasite of Mortrex with a xenomorph-like mouth. Not only would it fit thematically with that it's doing but it'd be great alongside the predator-mouthed tyranids you have already :)

It would be awesome to see some truly outlandish Tyranid kit bashes. I know Murray can come up with something epic!

Love that chest-gun tyranid. Definitely better this way, than the first idea.

Murray can be so silly or so serious, but always so talented just like everyone else on the team 💚

These are my favorite videos of yours, exploring how you guys inject personality and lore into your killteams and armies - it’s amazing to see both the technical aspects of your conversions and paint schemes, as well as the planning and scheming that goes into building up your personalized factions

I just love how Murray is always smiling. Also the not-zergs look great. Gross, disgusting... but great. :)

Absolutely INSANE how awesome these are. Suggestion for a Carnifex- the Jotunn are often depicted with axes, so for scything tails, make them more like an Axe Head!

these are amazing, my favorite is the mouth gun, just the way it all came together *chefs kiss*

I genuinely wish I would have known more about warhammer when starting instead of going straight into the SCE army half of the khorne sets my dad got me into. Building was his favorite and still is mine, and chaos/nids are honestly the most fun to kitbash because you can basically just do anything. Most of my stormcast just have different heads, different side swords, and sometimes some custom weapons, a far cry from mashing extra limbs on or having a straight up artillery piece coming out of the chest

Absolutely stunning! I'm definitely using a bunch of the techniques from this video on my own nids. Especially those open jaw mouths, I have tons of extra gaunt heads. Fantastic work, another great conversion.

These look fabulous! Thanks for giving me some inspiration for my own Tyranids, I'm definitely going to try that stringy blood and acid effect!

UHU glue is really good for that dripping blood/saliva vibe vs hot glue tendrils

Three way kill team battle between Murray, Dave, and Jazza would be incredible!

the details are crazy!!! wow

Congratulations Murray great art work. Your very talented! Hope we get to see more...🤩

The final effect is so good! Wellington done!

Love the butterfly effect for the carapace. Might steal for my own tyranids.

the butterfly pattern makes it so beautiful

Whilst I am 99% sure that if a warrior came out of the birthing pools like your venom cannoned here the hive would fast track it to the reclamation pools, or kill it with bioplasma, its super original, grotesque and is a really really interesting.

The color scheme gives me hunter vibes from Halo, which I feel fits pretty well with the whole Jotunn naming.

Hope to see more os these Tyrannids, your work is amazing!

You were not kidding about going for the awesome silhouette! Great job!

Crazy awesome custom build Murry!

im always super blown away by the colour theory and bold use of contrast in Murray's videos. Really impressive.

I think you're custom stuff like this is my favourite!

Love seeing all the awsome custom armies they make

Maaaan this is one of my favourite projects you guys have done, these are so slick

They look so good!

They look amazing!

Amazing conversions!!

AMAZING! why haven't i thaught of such conversions

They look great! Particularly love the cannon protruding from the warriors mouth! Reminds me of the original art from the tyrannofex from the 5th edition tyranid codex

These look fantastic!!!

Thank you for this video. I just bought a box of warriors and I’ve been searching for inspiration.

These are my favorite models on the channel. Incredible work.

Those warriors look incredible! Wish I had the ability to pull something like that off

Those look so cool! Would love to see you do another 3 for a full warrior kill team

so cool i want try to make some of this warrior i loved the same side canon it's incredible

You _could_ use the diorama as a Unit Filler for a standard block of Tyranid infantry. It just represents a bunch of regular "Gaunts".

They look great!

wowwwwww, they look so amazing!

WOW so cool well done Murray

Amazing work Murray!

Great video Murray. The Tyranids look fantastic!

Oh god... You've inspired me to start painting again. I haven't touched the game, or the models, in years. However, this might have just restarted that love afair I initially had for Tyranids. Also, these turned out brilliantly!

Wow Murray, your Nids look awesome. That's some pretty nifty conversion work, and that colour scheme is beautiful. Would love to see a massive swarm of those guys in the future.

Hell yeah man, they all look so unique

Mad lad actually named them jotunn, listening to the fans, nice!

I really hope to see this project continue! Murray's presenting skill is also top notch and whilst I know it's repetitive I'm almost upset I didn't get to sit mesmerised and watch gaunt after gaunt get painted up!

They look sick! really giving the terrifying alien vibe. Please do some Genestealers and make the old sculpts look like this!

Great job man they look awesome 🤟

👍👍Looking awesome mate you've done great there! How about doing a little guy coming out of a big guy as the Tyranids are known to recycle their own dead 😊

the venom cannon sculpt is incredible! what a cool killteam

also i think hive guard are an incredible model, would be fun to see your take on those!

Fantastic models

Love the slime-drool-effect

I really enjoy Murray, my favorite TTT personality.

For "horrible drool", may I suggest the Splash paint from AK Interactive? I think if you paint Nurgle's Rot or some other glossy paint over the drops, it would look like saliva strings

They really look spectacular

Jotun is a good name. Suits the Nordic mythology/folklore theme of the Fleets

I cant wait to see these monsters in action

Brilliant stuff

that stop motion was really nicely done :)

The Cannon mouth one is so cool but disgusting. The lumps being held in place by the hands looks so good

Very creative, I like it.

I can’t wait to see this battle report. Tyranids! Would love to see a trigonometry in your colour scheme, Murry. Would certainly be interesting to see

They look great 👍🏻

Two things One are you ever going to add more to the playlist For this custom hive fleet Two Are we gonna see any more of these From the hive Fleet Leviathan Bach

Holy crap muz they look sick as!

Haha I love lil mouth gun guy. That's really great.

I mentioned not being able to wait for more big things on Dave's Crisis suit, now can't wait to see Carnifex, Swarmlord, Hive Tyrant, Tyrranofex, Exocrine... geez, the Tyranid line has a bunch of cool stuff.

Love them, and really looking forward to some more Kill Team battle reports. I've made a tyranid kill team too, and just a tip, if you swap out the gaunts for genestealers they can be brilliant in the kill team game as if they are concealed in cover they can't be targeted other than by things like grenades. Also i'd love to see how you personalise them.

Literally building a Baneblade custom for my Fenrisian Guard and planned on calling it JotunnBane and now need to get tyranid bits to put on it

Gonna be honest, these are some of the nicest nids I've seen. The one holding his deathspitter out to one side gives me kellermorph vibes

Murray you absolute genius! These look fantastic 😍

If you're struggling with balancing the amount of water on your greenstuff you might get some mileage out of instead applying Vaseline directly to the tools to lubricate them and prevent them from sticking. It works well for me.

Yessss...conversion is life.

More Murray videos! This video was great (and disgusting)! Can't wait to see a batrep with these nasty monsters.

I just had a friend who stopped painting minis drop hundreds of tyrranids off at my house to get me back into the hobby and this was wayyyy to perfect

Maybe I’ll get into 40k now…

I've always found myself thinking of doing Tyranids, but tend to get cold feet, and do something else. But I'm thinking you might be changing my view on this, Murray, cause these look sick! As per ideas, I think you need to go with some gamesmanship. The guardsman on the diorama is awesome, but you could start with the mindgames on Dave and Jazza. So, since you're going with the detachable jaws, maybe have one mid-devouring a Fire Warrior, by having a leg sticking out. Or having one stomping on a Space Bear! 😈
