Those four chaos marine models made by Jes Goodwin are the gold standard of the classic chaos marine look. I have two of the "Nurgle" marine models. I'm hoping to get a few of those classic rubric marine ones, they are perfection.
Gotta love the Perrys, Morrisons, but Jes Goodwin was THE MAN
GeeDubs should really trick us into giving them money re-releasing those four as a collector set....
Totally agree. There was something about them for sure😊
I'm so happy for my completed set of those four. They're so iconic!
@@TheExcessus I got lucky enough to buy 12 of these Rubric marines for less than 100 dollars. That's honestly a solid price for how rare and expensive they are getting these days. Haven't painted them up yet though.
Not many people know this but they’re called Thousand Sons because Arkhan Land pays a LOT of child support.
Poor dude. Spent his Raider fortunes paying for his kids.
He was a bit of a lad back in the day😂😂😂
Those 4 Jes Goodwin chaos models were sold on a MTO last year (Sold as the Traitors of Chaos), they all had those 2000 era backpacks as well!
I gladly swiped them when I had the chance, now to grab some 2nd Ed Chaos Space Marines squads XD
Wanted to say this! I missed out on them (since I only got back into warhammer last year after they went mto) but I got it recently for a good deal and they're such beautiful sculpts!
Yup got those, just gave the Emperors children marine to my brother when i heard they are coming to 40k(he plays them in heresy) and I have the death guard marine and the thousand sons marine as part of those armies. (i dont have world eaters so hes in my pile of shame)
the skit with the bill in the kitchen was hilarious
She has that great Monty Python accent
Does she?
@@Miniscape-wh40kto us, she does :)
Ah yes, a fresh video from my favourite ASMR channel
Do I put you to sleep?
@@Miniscape-wh40k the most peaceful kind.
they play this to the insomniac dreadnoughts to help them sleep better
@@theliteralsun-k7z that could just mean I am boring 😜
@@Miniscape-wh40k it could also mean you have a very nice voice
Rubrics were another model design I wasn't crazy about in the '90s but I love now. What a treasure!
I've been saving this video for today. When I can enjoy it out on the porch with a cigar and some whisky.
Cracking job on the freehand tzeentchy badge. It's not easy doing it over ridgey cloth bits, good effort.
Also I expected the song to be a riff on Carry On My Wayward Son, only with "Thousand" instead of "Wayward". This is still good.
Cheers 😂
Those old models are perfect ...
Every iconic one should be painted as a statue with a description of their nemesis and deeds/lore in a book of heroes on a scenic base.
Great looking model! Love the bright colours of oldhammer paintjobs really makes the models stand out!
Cheers
I think this is one of your best paint jobs. Looks fantastic, and you nailed the old 2nd Ed colours/appearance. Those Citadel Miniature catalog B&W images brought back a massive wave of nostalgia.
Thank you very much!
Love it. The song is very relatable.
good to hear your soothing voice again!
Loving the content. Commenting to support. Love your pacing and singing lol.
Thank you
Takes me back to being 15 again...beautfully done!
Man, you're reminding me of when I first played 40k and chaos just had one codex. There's something to be said about both now and then, how the games feel different.
Who knew Julian Barrett was
Into Warhammer! Absolutely loving your channel.
Who?
Greetings and Salutations! Thank you, always fun to see what you´re up to. I bought a couple of the Khorne Marines back in the day and when a set of the 4 classic Jes Goodwin sculpts appeared at our local GW store my son bought them and has painted them, very expertly I might add. Look forward to more, hopefully another Batrep w. Ed. The best to you, Billi.
This is one of my favorite things I’ve seen you paint. Wonderful work, as always.
Smashing paintjob. Im actually very impressed at the sculpting
As always, great video! Thank you!
My pleasure!
I didn't play 2nd edition, though I bought my first minis during that edition.
So I mostly remember going up against these from 3rd edition onwards.
If I remember correctly, you needed dedicated anti-tank weapons to dakka the Thousand Sons Marines off the table.
Which, if you played Space Marines, dedicating a Devastator squad or a Predator Annihilator to dealing with them.
Or charging them with Terminators, as power fists, and thunder hammers dealt with them nicely in melee.
I've still got my old Plague Marine you showed in the mag! Great job on the Thousand Son. Only 999 to go...😂
Awesome work love this video was waiting for you to do a Thousand son they are my favourite army
I got this exact model a few months ago, along with a 2002 Rubric Marines squad, which was 9 regular chaos space marines with the same upgrades you showed off later in the video. It's like I needed that one 1991 Rubric Marine to go along with it to make a full squad of 10. Hope my paint job will turn out as good as yours.
oh wow...I bought a squad of these out of the 2nd hand bin at my game store a decade ago. I figured they were old...I didnt realize they were THAT old!
I think your getting better at painting this is one of the best minis I’ve seen you paint looks awesome! Thousand sons where the first box of Warhammer I got I should go paint one of mine
Thanks 😍
Timely! I just found and bought three of these on fleabay. Looking forward to painting them up (but not finding six more!)
Yeah, 2nd ed Thousand Sons!!! It was such a chore to be a Thousand Sons player back then, but they were the coolest legion so I had no choice! I spent a lot of time chopping of heads to put on librarian bodies and such. Energy drain was such a massive drawback... :( Nice video!
Always loved the rubric marine aesthetic, years ago as a kid in the mid 2000s I remember them catching my eye, little me back then was sure that these were the good guys. Recently saw 3 of these guys in a bulk lot I was going through for space wolf bits. Didnt realize they were a pain to find. Shame I have no room left in the budget otherwise I would get 'em.
Really enjoying these videos!
I'm glad
Your helmet crest BLOWS ALL THIRTY SIX of them I painted back in the day out of the water
For my army from Codex Chaos Space Marines (3.5) I had 3 Squads of Rubric Marines and One squad of Rubric Terminators I converted from Loyalist Plastic Terminators and Metal Thousand Son heads.
Good sir! Your painting is getting better and better with each video. This guy looks amazing!
Thank you very much!
that thousands sons sculpt has aged beautifully, only just noticed that the legs at least are mk 4.
Great model. Big fan of tzeentch marines and warriors.
"Yellow over black is a bit hard to do."
*sobs in Iron Warriors...*
Not impossible though ☺️
Never been able to find those organic backpacks in metal but I am sure they existed. I have a an original chaos renegade model that deserves one but my search continues.
Love how your army is slowly growing to include all the chaos warbands. Just need the emperors children and I am highly interested in how you'd paint them.
Top notch song, would listen a second time.
The songs are my favourite part of your videos and I love that you put the lyrics on screen so I can sing along
the wave of 40k nostalgia has made finding things on ebay cost almost more than the currently over-priced miniatures that gw is selling. oof. I have been looking for thousand suns, plague marines, knorne berserkers, and daemons of every god, and its just nasty how high the costs are. Love the paint job you did.
We can only hope for more rereleases since those usually cuts down the costs on eBay. Saying this as someone that dreams of affordable guardsmen😂
@@luclin92 RIP mordian iron guard
Glad you like it. Sorry if I am responsible for the price rise. I think they were already high when I started my collection though.
@Miniscape-wh40k i wouldn't blame you, it seems to fit in the general nostalgic trend that happens with every hobby
I would have cast him with some blue stuff and milliput. Oldhammer minis are sacred relics and expensive as all hell. But also out of production. There is no dishonour in making a few castings.
Food for thought.
Wow that model is beautiful.
Thank you thank you
These videos are so lovely; relaxing and fun. The choice of music really reminds me of one of my favourite games for the PC; "The Operative: No One Lives Forever".
Glad you like them!
There's a paint guide somewhere that shows a squad of these Thousand Sons painted in a predominantly red scheme which makes them look really Rogue Trader.
I have a small squad of 4 of those rubrics. We 1k sons been eating good this year 🎉
I really like the way thousand sons look. If I had to collect a marine army it'd be them.
Phwoar, thats one cool miniature, looks so good painted. Definately the fancied of the evil space marines, look forward to seeing a squad of these in the future.
Love your videos.
Thank you buddy
always a pleasure to see your videos. I wasn't around when 2nd edition released so it's great to visit it from someone with first-hand experience and painting talent! Thanks for your hard work and all the videos you put out! :)
My pleasure!
Apparently the last edition sort of came back to grand buffet armies; undivided Chaos Marines were described as having mono god warbands within them. In the modern Black Legion, these warbands were Bringers of Decay (Plague Marines), Sons of the Cyclops (Rubric Marines), Hounds of Abaddon (Berserkers) and Children of Torment (Noise Marines).
What a beauty! Well done.
And... Remember Tizca!
I do not remember Tizca
Wow! your skills are amazing! Great paint job! You should be very proud of this one. You did this ancient Jes Goodwin (My fave sculptor btw) model a great service sir! Great Video again buddy. Keep up the amazing momentum! Thanks for the video!
Thank you so much!
thank u for your lovely videos i find them very inspiring for my own hobbying
I'm so glad you do. You are welcome. Happy hobbying.
Older Rubric marines are cool as and their modern brethren, these MK4 and MK7 helmets, just very nice sculpts)
Man, your painting abilities are second to none, and your songs are ace!! 😂. I’m hoping and preying to the unholy slaanesh that some tasty leopard skin clad noise marines with their rainbow top knots and goblin green bases will join your hoard of Chaos
That's very kind. Thank you. I still have many skills I could improve on though. For one, I need to get better at blending.
@@Miniscape-wh40k I do see you push yourself in each new clip you release.. All I can say with the blending, is go slowly, keep the brush strokes in the same direction and really light applications.. Your colour matching is on point, so you’ll nail your technique sooner rather than later I’d recon.. And I now paint gold over a brown base 😉 thanks for that
@@malevolencemotorsports8361 I'll try what you have suggested. And you thank you ☺️
Good stuff as always, love those little speech bubbles on sticks, a nice touch. Also the model turned out perfect.
Thanks Drez. I like doing the speech bubbles.
Getting very 'Elaine Page' vibes from the ending song. That 'Soot' line had me in stiches. What a heartless bastard I am! 😄😄😄
I thought he might do a cover of "I ain't got nobody."
Thousand sons are also heartless
That model is a banger.
Too bad there weren't any alternative poses.
Still, it'll slot right in with the upgrade heads and torsos.
And I love the striping on the helmet crest.
Cheers.
beautiful, well done!
Thank you very much!
Thousand sons marine knocks on the door of a imperial bunker,one guard says to the other...who was that.. the other guard says nobody.
Ha
Another winner sir! Waiting on some noise marines…. Wink wink.
They are in the pipeline
superb video as always, the backpack works very well!
would love to see your take on an emperor's children recipe
Watching this with my Mrs and she said you sound like Howard Moon (Mighty Boosh) 😂 keep up the good work as your vids are awesome!
Thank you...I think 😂
@@Miniscape-wh40k 😂😂😂
This channel is a joy to behold.
Thank you sir
Please make a separate video for the other models! Even if just showing the different stages of completion, it's still a treat!
It's a hard maybe. Sometimes I like the joy of painting without filming. Grant me this respite.
@@Miniscape-wh40k Whatever you want to do! You did ask 😁
@@gfortunate8650 I suppose so. I'm a hobby butterfly though. Changing my mind quite often.
One of your best paint jobs mate.
Thank you so much
Looks great, bud!!!!
Thanks!
No worries! I'd have used him as a captain for a Loyalist Thousand Sons army I'm working on.
Fairly heavy Chris De Burgh vibes from the song there. Take that however you see fit😋
Me and this mini came into this world in the same year 😅
Dope ass channel, keep it up brother
This video was awesome! I've always been partial to Tzeentch, but the more recent Thousand Sons sculpts didn't really do it for me. The one you painted in this video really is the gold standard. Regardless, I'm looking forward to your army showcase video!
Hopefully will get that video done before the end of the year
The combination of the extra tedious paint scheme and the fact that my brother has a TS army, means these are the last of the specialist legionnaires to be added to my Black Legion.
Everybody gangster until the Jazz of Tzeentch starts playing.
Looks great
Thanks!
i just got lucky with a auction for 10 of these rubrics, very excited to paint them up but i need a sorcerer now for my collection
😮
I love the thousand sons so fucking much :'D , this was awesome.
Celine Dion is canonically the Primarch after hearing that beautiful jingle.
😂
THOUSAND SONS BABYYYYYYYYY
Huh, fun song at the ending!
Thousand Sons, because Nine Hundred and Ninety Seven Sons just doesn't have quite the same ring to it.
The Space Wolves have 999, problems but Barry ain't one.
Finally a channel run from a proper county
Now I'm wondering where you think I am from 😜
radical sons
A near complete lot of renegade marines from RT recently sold on ebay. I don't know who the sculptor was, but they were amazing, having characteristics of all four ruinous powers... Not to put ideas in your head.
I'm knee deep in ideas, but thanks 🤩
A sad, sad song, for a sad, sad Legion. Kudos.
Thanks 🙏 I felt they needed such a tune
I heard they're canonically called "Thousand sons" because they originally had an M next to their legion for Magnus' sons, and M is the Roman numeral for 1000, so someone misinterpreted what it meant and began calling them thousand sons
Clever
Haha I was about to say if you wanted some of the later Upgrade part half/Half metal/plastic guys I haven't touched mine since 6th edition
and was probably going to list that army for sale at a point soon
when you are the catalyst of bad financial decisions, you know you have a good influence in terms of hobby spenditure
I just wanted to hear your smooth and smarmy intro, I'll be back to check this out later.
😉
Saddest Miniscape song yet.
"Sorry, who's paying for all of this?" Lol
Would love to see you so a video on arbites one day
I'm not saying no but I would need the models first
Yet another excellent video.
But what everyone wants to know is, will you be adding Chaos Squats to the army?
Does EVERYONE want to know that? 😉
👏
Hello my fav mini UA-camr
Hello hello
The only information I have is that my friend was a thousand sons fanatic and he had about 100 of these bad boys in 1994 and he painted them red.
you could field a plethora of chaos legions all in the same army all the way up to 7th edition.
Yes
Abbadon had rubric marines onboard the vengeful spirit. So nothing wrong with the lore there.
FIND SOME NOISE Marines now! the ones with the guitars
🫡
only if gw used the superior tech of our day to make models like these
I wish
Back when they had less trim to worry about
