This Artwork by @adriansmithartist has inspired me to paint Tyranids since 20 years – but I never dared to directly copy it and paint them like 3rd Edition Tyranids. Today though…is the day!

That is one sick as hell result! Loved the video style 😀
More Adrian Smith art!
Mega Cool
May I ask what blue gray shade colour was used? It looks amazing
Bloody awsome , best nid paint sceam I've seen and brilliantly excecuted.
Hey trovarion, thank you for the awesome tutorial on that scheme, that's the colour-scheme that made me, twenty years ago, collect & paint 'nids, all sold now – lol. My apporach was way more simpler. Maybe I should get me a handful new 'nids for painting fun.
As for other Codex-Cover-Schemes suggestions, I always liked the 7th Ed DeathGuard Codex Cover with that pale aquamarine Plaguemarine, with the bright pinkish fleshy parts. I know it's not something recently released and may not feed the algorithm xD
Бомбер и нож – бей чертей всех уничтожь 🤗🤗
Nice job. Thank you for the video
They look awesome, Dude!
I remember that book art well, it's when I first started playing Warhammer in general. Funny thing is, I always thought that it would have made a bad color scheme compared to the actual paint examples they had in the book. Now I see all it takes is good color understanding and imagination. Nice work!
Love it, love it, love it
dude that is fantastic! I was just about to start attempting this myself but had no idea where to start, thanks!
I would prefer a straight line over the eyes instead of the uneven one, because it adds to the horror effect in being kind of unexpected on such an organic subject as a Tyranid. Wonderful video all in all!
Best Nids I've seen, and basically everyone has made his one version after Leviathan…
What I'd really like to know or better, what I'd like to watch: A video with a talk about time. How long did those two models take you each, how has the increasing experience in the grimdark-videos on space marines changed your time needed, something like this. Would be real interesting to know!
Amazing work!😮👍🏽👍🏽
Sooo cool and sooo many memories of 3rd edition my first edition and I’ve only recently come back in end of 9th and 10th that scheme is incredible I wish I had the patience to do my splinter fleet this scheme god if we only had a pause button
That leaped! So cool
Simon bisley inspired bugs?
I wanted to make some edgy joke about how it looks alright for someone who is published in a book, but dayum Trov. You described my childhood feeling about this exact artwork and nailed the paintjob… Next time you invade my head and thoughts, at least buy me a drink first 😅
🙁 D
How long to complete start to finish not including research time, camera work, editing etc – just the painting? Love your content man.
I like taking inspiration from artworks like you did here, great stuff.
DAMN! It looks fantastic! I would love to see a whole army with this scheme…
Next level Tyranids, a masterclass in scary but stylish!👌
Nothing livens up deep blue/black armor like a gentle glaze of a bright red in the recesses. Absolutely fantastic take on this scheme – and by sacrificing just a little bit of detail, it can be done very swiftly with contrasts, too!
As always, love the content!!
This color scheme is so badass, dark and grim, I love it. But for a whole army in a similar quality, nope 😂 fantastic work 👏
any chance of getting an exact list of paints used? 🙂
16:00
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
😂
Can I use this paint scheme for the new tyranids I’m kinda new ?
This is the best Nid scheme I have ever seen
It would be cool to see a series of you painting miniatures from all the old box art. Like the old space hulk, death wing or maybe the old rogue trader harlequins.
Adrien Smith is my fav artist for Warhammer, his artwork is what made me dive into this hobby
Love it!
I'm so happy for this video
i just started painting the leviathan box nids in this scheme although mine is blacker rather than blueish, orange claws and of course not as good lol. but im enjoying it and excited to see my army in this scheme. one thing though unsure what kind of base to use have them on
Again, this is my favourite artwork of all time and this video is so juicy, I'll watch it again 😮
paint yellow tyranids pls!!!! so hard black skin and yellow on top : S: S teach us how to paint it as fast as u can oh our god! haha
Now I have to watch two videos simultaneously, to get the army I'd love to field one day. What do you think about the approach @Infernalbrush took, to achieve this look?
Bro your work is amazing!
How would you do this scheme on Genestealers??
Finally, someone did it justice.
