Ork Genestealers! Kitbashing a rare hybrid from Warhammer 40k

Показать описание

Ork Tyranid Hybrid, a kitbash I wanted to do since my Space Marines Genestealers. While making a Tyranid weapon for my Age of Sigmar Ork, I got inspired to make him into a full hybrid. Afterwards I go on a journey of painting him.

Old Lore: "Sometimes, albeit rarely, a Genestealer-Ork hybrid brood grows and prospers. Genestealer broods are usually only successful once a breeding community of Feral Orks has been infected, and the Genestealer genetic curse will integrate itself into any reproductive spores shed by those Orks. If a "civilised", technologically-advanced Greenskin community is infected it has a catalytic effect on the Ork breeding urge and Ork hybrids will develop from Ork spores eventually, but usually the Genestealer incursion among the Orks simply dies out. "

The lore reason why jeans stealers and tyrranids rarely manage to properly infiltrate the orks is because the other orks will notice that a "git" is acting weird and will "crump 'em real good", thus extinguishing the threat before it even became one. Gork and Mork truly work in divine but mysterious ways.

Personally I would have made the worm looking thing red instead of green to invoke the idea that it's a gene Steeler squig of sorts

funfact about the rippers, they were made using ork DNA and when the orks first came across the early stages of rippers their ork psychic link recognized them as "orky" and took them. That is the origin of the squig in 40k.

From what little Warhammer 40k lore I know, Tyranid-Orc Hybrids sound absolutely terrifying.

We don't see ork gene stealers more often?
because they are purple and purple is the sneaky color!!!!

I love Ork Genestealers (brood boyz) and they should really be a unit on the table top, IMO

What a swell video of ups and downs that not many youtubers show for their painting process. Very nice

I love the result! And thank you for talking us through all the highs and the lows of the process

I really like your Ork Hybrid, it is a great source of inspiration! I did some Hybrids in the past, using Acolyte Hybrids mixed with classic Ork Boyz. Aberrants also work really well as a base model since they have similar proportions to Orks. I hope you will do some more conversions like that in the future!

There is something wrong, I cannot see some parts of that ork and I do not know why....

Now do the reverse. Try orking up a Tyranid model :)

Imagine how cool Ghaz hive tyrant would be

I like when kitbashers and mini painters describe their mistakes in the process. It's reassuring that even guys who do this this well still make mistakes.
