- The follow up to 'WAKING DREAD' - see what happens when an Astartes Dreadnought crashes down on a heretic battalion... Modelled, animated and textured by me. All in Blender. (It gets better every release)
This was a long time coming. Hope you all enjoy the show! even if it is 1 minute 30 seconds long. I feel it packs a punch.
If you would like more from me please - help contribute through my patreon, so I can follow my dream of not working on corporate videos anymore, and make the things I want to make instead - like this!

I like how in general dreadnoughts are shown to be pretty clunky but when you really think about dreadnought being called "Masters of war" you trully realize that they are extermely dangerous
Oh yeah, like Wulfen Dreads and Death Company Dreads
it is basicly a walking tank,
within the heart of every dreadnought lies the living remains of a veteran of millennia of war. Thousands of years of experience, knowledge, and history, wrapped in an armored sarcophagus, and equipped with the weapons and tools to wage war like never before.
@@rhino2960 dreadnorts to wounded to live to Precious to die
They are pretty clunky. Then you remember that they're being called pretty clunky in comparison to Space Marines and the chills down your spine start freezing the atmosphere.
I feel like besides all the other comments remarking about the fluidity and shielding itself, this also captures another aspect: the sheer f**king terror of a metal coffin with a chain gun and flamethrower just dropping out of the sky and rinsing your whole group. No epic battle music, no dramatic slow mo. Just the roar of the chain gun and the hiss of the flamethrower. This was terrifying, and I loved it.
When the coffin dancers have had enough:
I love the grab and twist then rotating fling lol. And the brrrrrrt. Awesome. Seeing dreadnoughts animated is one of my favorite things. The entombed marine using their new body to its full capabilities isn’t captured as well in literature. Would love to see some gritty texturing and additional light effects to pump up the grim dark.
Absolutely the most stunning depiction of a dreadnought I've seen anywhere! Including official content.
I've always loved looking at or imagining SciFi things and how they would operate and this just hits so close to how I've imagined a real dready. Steady and rapidly deadly!
I dunno i still DOW 2 trailer one takes the cake. "I HAVE COME TO DESTROY YOU"
Best part is, this is one of the more basic, simpler patterns too. Now imagine if it was a Contemptor, or Emperor forbid a Leviathan.
a dreadnought dropped into an enemy trenchline is terrifying nowehere to run but in a straight line away from it and get perforated by its autocannon
Learned that spin move from a Chinese industrial unsafety film
The animation is cool but the SOUNDS are just awesome!
Amazing keep it pushing you got this
Amazing work!!!
My only nitpick is: could use some camera shake effects to really emphasize the brutality inherent in the setting in general, and this character in particular. For example: when the drop pod hits the earth, or every step taken by the dreadnought, etc.
Well done!
DEEP STRIKING
pretty sad for a gunship without anti-armor missiles or rockets.
My only complaint is that the dreadnought moves like it doesn't weigh anything
Death to heretics! Glory to the Emperor!
It looks clunky, but they're surprisingly dexterous. That's a Dreadnought, and you captured that perfectly.
@Gronkers If it's intact and just falls over it can swivel it's waist to turn on it's side or front and push itself back up with it's arm and do so surprisingly fast.
So yeah, tripping that helluva angery metal box ain't gonna help you much if you are on the "to be purged" list :D
If that boxy dready was replaced by a Contemptor dreadnought or a Leviathan Pattern Siege Dreadnought, it could've turned all that Heretic camp into a slaughterhouse.
@Gronkers Well same can be said of any vehicle really. Destroy a critical component X and it's useless.
Even bigger issue with tanks, blow one track off and the tank is a sitting duck.
Also for tanks getting immobilized in tank on tank battle means certain death, not to mention that all it needs is a single infantry soldier with a potent AT weapon.
In my opinion everything has their pros and cons. When it comes down to two legged walkers it really comes down to the setting and a multitude of variables.
For example look at Titanfall, in that setting I would rather have a Titan than a tank simply for the sheer amount of utility the Titan brings to the table on top of their combat effectiveness.
When it comes down to a dreadnough... well let's just say that you are talking some mad shit on Assault Cannon range.
Very scary. Like the evil robot from Robocop2 - that al ways scares me as a kid
@@therandommarine1430 same could be said for a modern tank though -Doesn't take an awful lot to tear a track off
A very brave individual, posting a warhammer fan animation in these dark times.
I've seen a few new 40k animations popping up lately. I think it's swung from a passion, fan made project just because to simply looking to get hired by Warhammer+ at this point.
In the dark times, dare to be brave
Инквизиция, одобряет!
This isn't Warhammer+??!!!
what you talking about? this is clearly battlemace 40M
For 27 years I have thought that the dreadnoughts looked blocky and would move slowly, almost ponderously... you have purged me of these heretical thoughts. This was amazing!!!
Grandpa is back, with a vengeance!
@@VioletDeathRei grandpa has been released from the home
Shut it Billy, grandpa has to go for a walk. There's heretics about.
There slow by space marine standards but to us regular folk there fast as shit
you should see how they move in the space marine game
I've always admired how a dreadnought can be used as a ballistic by simply dropping into combat
Space marines use the same kind of drop pods the Dreadnought did. They are cool tho.
I'm impressed that the helicopter bullets didn't even chip the paint 😂
@@weeeeehhhhh There is an interresting story with the red paint development for the supersonic planes. In the XX th century the planes were made faster and faster. Eventually planes broke a sound barrier. So the problem occured. Eventualaly conditions became harsh enough to cause panit to constantly fall of. Identification marks on Soviet aircraft continued to be erased. Thus the new types of paint were developed able to withstand hight temperature and constant friction.
And now I'm going to ask you to sit down more firmly. So quote: "However, given its rather weak resistance to increased radiation, especially in a marine climate, and the rapid loss of gloss with intense chalking, fluoroplastoepoxide enamel was created"
So some paint nowdays might as well withstand a nuclear blast.

Dreadnought perfectly represented!! Power, presence, overwhelming destructive potential while still having some tactical acumen. Superb work my friend
Thanks padre - glad you liked it
@@MaxMurray3D Areyou related by any chance to that Astartes guy?
@@Prophetofthe8thLegion can't say we run in the same circles sadly - so no :)
I liked the destructive power of this animation, but the dreadnought movements felt too light and spry instead of heavy and tough, which looked weird when it took bullets and experienced no impact.
@@MaxMurray3D Ah, was just joking. Anyways- ( This comment has been removed by the request of Games Workshop. Your video will be taken down in the next 24 hours. We are not sorry if this inconviences you. Sincerly UA-cam )
Everyone is raving about him spin cycling the cultists or soaking damage with his arms but what I liked the most was how he threw that cultists at the other cultists. That was a very novel way to chuck something if you have 360 degree waist rotation. Lol
I need a weapon, you will do.
Not only is it cool, but it also captures their prowess as well. I mean, people don't have rotating spines, but the dread does. His control over his body and manipulators to pull off that throw, that shows not only experience as a space marine, but as a drednoughtas well.
@@HGScout I wouldn't say he has a rotating spine but it's like a mongoose bike's handlebars. lol
Thanks for commenting and reminding me of this video so I could watch it again.
it reminds me of that kill animation in Dawn of War 1
Flinging a man like a discus 😮👍
The dreadnought acting as a human would do by shielding his face from something thrown at him truly shows that that's no machine but still a true human being. Iconic
Right? The fact that there is no need to shield as it is armor through and through, but the instincts of the brother within, makes it more lore accurate.
Makes his flamethrower exposed though. Luckily that weapon didn't blow up.
His head is behind that rectangular slit in the center so wouldn’t a bullet flying through there kill him?
@@samomico9536 I guess that has some reinforced glass or something. Because if dreadnoughts can be killed that easily then they are just a walking chunk of metal.
@@samomico9536 No the slit in the dread sarcophagus is the vision cluster, it's set up that way to give the battle brother inside the "human" perspective has he controls the suit via the MIU, the battle-brother in question is basically in the fetal position in the belly of the sarcophagus there's more then a couple reasons an Apothecary is needed along with a Tech Marine but one reason is the removable of all "unnecessary" appendages of the interred battle-brother , a Dread bound Marine is a limbless torsos perforated with tubes connecting the body to the internal system to handle the necessary functions that the Marines body no longer can with what amounts to a VR headset hammered into his face and wired directly to his brain.
If it was as simple as a crippled Marine hooking into a battlesuit I'd understand but crippled Marines teach Scouts you've got to be on another level of broken for the battle-brother to be wired into a dreadnought sarcophagus.
Hi, I'm from Russia and my English language skills are very poor. But, I am your video prompted me to get a dictionary and phrasebook in order to write this review. The video and the animation itself are beyond praise. It's reminiscent of SODA, but your animation also has more atmosphere and quality... THE DREADNOUGHT OF THE BLOOD ANGELS! These guys are incredibly cool, and personally, I, a man who loves space wolves, wanted to take a bolter and go cut down heretics. Thank you for your quality work.
Thankyou! It means alot that you took the time to translate and review! Thanks again my Wolf King friend
"Time is not spent on a good cause." That's what they say in Russia. Perhaps the translator will distort this phrase, but I hope that he will convey the essence. And so, I can only wish you success in all this, because GW themselves will pay attention to you and, perhaps, even offer you a job!
Hi dude, even though you said your English is poor, I think it's pretty good.
As a professional English language teacher, your English is already outstanding - frankly, it is better than the average English person's English! Not to mention that you actually took the time to piece together what you wanted to say yourself. Really great stuff, and good review :)
Не хватает только эпических возгласов дредноута.
This actually makes sense if we think about it. Dreadnoughts are masters of war who have lived for hundreds if not thousands of years. They are constantly lubricated and worshipped whilst they slumber to prevent any harm while they rest. Once awoken, their experience, knowledge, wisdom, and foresight are their 1st tools. Those that are deployed are virtually unstoppable because of their combat prowess. In the stories most of us have read, few enemies have been able to rival a dreadnought.
I realize the game has balance to ensure every player has fun; but it's nice to see how the Ancient Ones are supposed to be depicted from the books. It's refreshing to NOT see 3 Venerables completely decimated by a single squad of Orkk Boys because my friends dakkadakka 6s are unstoppable...
While all of that is true, the conditioning it requires to continue to serve while in a giant metal death dealing casket is still horrifying. The way the books explain it, I cannot imagine being ok with not just resting forever. Even if it is an honor and privilege to be considered for continued service. The constant sleep for super long periods of time, only to be awaken during times of war, then back to conditioned sleep... its bonkers and fitting of the 40k Universe.
You mean you have to die to get lubricated in your slumber? Sad
@@YetAnotherTechRaccoon To be fair: Space Marines were made for the express purpose of making war. As Ibram Ghreer once said: "Dorn made builders, and Magnus thinkers. Guilliman raised bureaucrats, while Lorgar made priests and the Khan vagrants. Of all the Legions, we are the only ones who are exactly what the Emperor wanted, all that the Legiones Astartes were ever meant to be. Conquerors. We aren't meant for the world that is coming, the new world that will rise from the ashes. We are only meant to burn this one down." They are ONLY meant to fight, so being put out of commission when there's no fighting is probably a Space Marine's wet dream.
@@YetAnotherTechRaccoon you think thats bad, try chaos version
implying a single squad of Ork boys couldn't kill 3 dreadnoughts and loot what evers left
Never underestimate the Orks
That first soldier being spun into oblivion was so awesome
He did not survive the vibe check
RUN: Ripandtear
EXE : powerclaw sub:Ragdoll
I would be suprised to see that guy survive till the spin happen tbh
Since reading from the (wiki) lore, the claw pretty much have the same power as a modern crane or even more
Came down to comment the same then spotted yours. That was simply awesome! If the initial grab didn't kill him outright, having his internal organs thrown out of both ends definitely did the job!
@@henrycooper3431 he super dead, lol
My strat for Dawn of war:
“Sir we’re losing forces.”
“Drop the dreadnoughts.”
“How many?”
“Yes.”
Yes tbh the entire space marines race suck if you don't just spam them
All of them!!!
Why only one dreadnought ? Because we have to deal with only one invasion.
Did the Blood Ravens 'borrow' fallen brothers from other chapter then shoving it into their Dreadnoughts?.
That'd explain the amount of Dreads they can field.
@@arya31ful great, now the magpies are grave robbers too
This is exactly why dreadnoughts are so awesome. They look big and cumbersome, but the Astartes inside is a master of the mechanisms and weapons, and can easily wipe an entire fortress by himself!
My thoughts exactly. You always read in novels and fluff about how agile and quick Dreadnaughts are, but it doesn't seem possible when you see the art or the specs. Then you see something like this and... yep, I can believe it lol
Yeah, let's ignore that if they had anti tank weapons it would be blown up in sec. Stupidity of 40k is legendary, everything is made for rule of cool.
I'm pretty sure most Dreadnoughts have shields though I'm probably thinking about the ancient Dreadnoughts (I never read the novels/books of Warhammer 40k, only play the games, and you would think people would built a small shield generator of some kind that doesn't make the Dreadnoughts slower than it is, and I'm sure you need more than a standard anti tanks missile to take down a Dreadnought if it was built to tank small arms fire from other space marines which blows you up on impact on your body for a couple of seconds, I even seen a Dreadnought surviving a shot by a las-cannon in a video called siege)
@@matthewyang5752 You are quite wrong. You are thinking about Knights. Dreadnought is rule of cool, in real life it would be useless.
@@AkenValle you said that but I seen a Dreadnought surviving a shot from a las-cannon in a video and you need more than a standard anti tank milssle to take it out, and you are thinking about Modern Warfare against a frictional race, never put frictional and reality together, it will never work, and beside if it's stupid than ignore it, not throw a fit and said will never work 🙄

Shooting at a Dreadnought with anything less than anti-vehicular weaponry will do nothing but further incense the pilot, who's having the equivalent of an eternal, enraged hangover.

what
@@chrisbrighton8114 24 means "24 inches". That's the range of a Dread's Assault Cannon in the tabletop. The weapon can't be fired if the model is too far away from it's target.

A dreadnaught is that, tuned to 11.

@@SapFeaRon stop with the bullshit. Sodaz was bullied out of the hobby by people calling him a sellout while he waited for GW to make a choice (to be fair, it didn't help that his English isn't great).

After that, GW changed its stance to only allow for licenced animations.
Then, Alfabusa quit because "asking GW for a licence would expose me", as if knowingly refusing to adjust his position would be of any help, and as if they didn't already know about him, and kept his stuff on a monetized Patreon (it doesn't matter that you don't really have to pay to view them, that's how it works) while, given GW's stance, the sensible thing would have been to keep all Warhammer-related stuff on a demonetized platform, and keep the new projects on Patreon.

Now, I don't really like how aggressive they are in protecting their IP, but I know this isn't the exception but the norm. And the mindset "I know I could get a licence and make money off of it, but fuck you anyways" doesn't help anyone.
@@SapFeaRon Sodaz was waiting on communication from GW after accepting their offer (regional issues, as far as I know), meanwhile it was the so called 'fans' who started screaming 'sellout', 'shill' and basically harassing the shit out of them, to the point they nearly quit animating altogether. So get that fact straight, for starters.
Following that, the only people ACTUALLY struck (TTS were ones who CHOSE to pre-emptively stop animating, using directly copied art assets no less, rather than ask for a license etc) have been direct 3D print IP violations/rip offs or stuff that infringes brand reputation - i.e. as far as I know it was something heavily NSFW daemonette stuff.
TL;DR stop trying to make money off of other peoples IPs, development and miniature design and, amazingly, no one has any problems! Who'da thunk it.
If GW ever contacts you tell them to go to hell. Either that or string them along but point blank refuse to sign the NDA. Unless it’s been SEVERELY edited. By your own lawyer of course.
This really meets the level of tactical combat in astartes, beautiful work and I hope GW won't strike you
@Spring Trap it’s just a matter of time until GW unleash their censorship hammer I fear😞
Dreadnought: Falls on heretic's positions
Heretics: It actually was a bad idea to betray...
This is exactly how a dreadnought fights! Oh my Holy Emperor! To be a guardsman watching this holy machine-warrior crush your foes into pulp, mush, and ash while you pepper it with lasgun fire would be beautiful.

That was pretty good. They're always shown slow and clunky, but there's no way they could keep up in the setting of they weren't at least as good as you just showed. Kudos!
Madlad, you're gonna get demonetized by GW..!
Also it's a great animation, one of the best dreads I've seen! Congratulations!
That first kill was brutal. The Emperor is with you.
perfect !!! The pop of the chaingun set the mood , enemies receiving the emperor's mercy . The animation shows a lot of work and love ..yes creator , we will want more .
Really like it! Cool to see a dreadnaught be fluid and adaptive. Ive never really liked the dreadnaughts to be portrayed as heavy and clunky, we got titans for that. Dreadnaughts should be like space marines, moving WAYYYY too fast for something that big.
Now THAT IS WHAT Assault Cannons should sound like. GLORIOUS.
@Nathan O'Keefe
Very few get the proper gatling gun sound right.
I actually think the sound of the gun is the worst part of this video. I think it needed to be much DEEPer. This sounds like a machinegun.
Remember the Dawn of war Intro cinematic from a thousands years ago? Thats how an assault cannon should sound like.
....Like a .22 belt fed?
Not only is your character work amazing, but your action and camera blocking is on a stellar level. Your use of lighting to reveal and emote dread is also fantastic. Genius work and I can't wait to see more.
Thanks man- that means alot to me. Hope to post more soon!
Damn dude, that was pretty good.
The movement on the dread could "feel" a little heavier. It looks a tiny bit to agile.
Bit Overall great work !!
I disagree.
it should be agile, it's supposed to be the equivalent of a Space Marine to a mech, what use is there to put the nervous system of a crippled Astartes into a clunky piece of shit if the body it goes into can't even keep up with the Astartes' mind. i like this portrayal of what you would assume a clunky and loathsome machine moving like a veteran demi-god of war
There's a little detail I love about this.
The assault cannon and claws don't automatically stop, when winding down. They have to spin DOWN. It's the little things.
@The.Necro.Maker are you referring to the assault cannon? Storm bolter is just a double barrel bolter. No spinning there.

GW : "send the hounds.."
...please no...
IF we could get a full blown version of what a terror the Dreadnaughts are on the battle field, we would never go back. This helps support that narrative. Good work.
This is glorious! I really like it
Just a small thing for the future: I think the gun-sounds, especially of the dreadnought, could use a litte more bass to give them weight. But other than that, this is what Warhammer Animation should look like!
The way that heretic gets spinned like a fucking fan almost made me barf. The bits of armor and weak limbs flying off, leaving nothing but a floppy meatbag.
Absolutely brutal.
Amazing work.
Also +1 for then using meatbag to kill another chaos trooper

GW: We have proprosal that you can't refuse
I was looking for one like this…..
Replying to this comment to get it higher up there in the queue.
This is fantastic work. I absolutely love it =) So I watched it multiple times to see if I can give you some feedback, and I have to say it is very close to being perfect. The only thing that I could think of was maybe trying to give everything a tiny bit more weight, maybe this would make it feel even more epic.
I agree with this criticism, the tower in the beginning flew away like it was paper. Besides that, everything was great.

You know, that was a really cheesy fan crossover....and so you get a like for Nerdromancy at that skill tier. For real made me laugh. Thanks. :)
All these fan videos of WH 40k not endorsed by GW but not seeing anything from GW like them? Helsreach, would like to see a Blu-ray available. Just like this series. Watched them all but seemed to stop this right as it was getting good. GW pay this guy to finish it. It was videos on UA-cam that got me into WH 40k. Have spent god knows how much on figures. Just ordered Furiouso Dreadnought partly because of this video(I know it’s not a furiouso but already have a Imperial Fist Dreadnought like the one in this video.
Геймплей нового Dawn of War выглядит прекрасно !
Incredible video, it’s giving me serious Tiberian Sun cutscene vibes just at a much higher quality and not as cheesy! What a gem this channel is
0:54 The gun is manned by a trained solider. They're aiming to the best of their ability and scoring hits in a difficult position on a moving vehicle. They are doing what is humanly possible. It makes for a great contrast when paired against the dreadnought who's perfectly tracking and making consistent hits on a moving target, with an inaccurate weapon!
The fact the dreadnought still blocks with its arm while making inhumanly accurate shots, strikes a great balance that this thing is both man and machine.
This honestly made me feel like an uncontrollable kid during Christmas morning! I was looking forward to this video and here it finally is! You sir, are heading in the right direction!
I really liked how the perspective and styling gave it a sort of tilt-shifted look to it, making look like it was actually miniatures fighting here. Really impressive work!
The way it grabs that person and kills them then throws them at their buddies is so crazy

ya, they are really well equpped, defintaly not yer standard canon fodder, more like Stormtroopers. and WAS THAT A DRONE?
It's very good animation-wise, although I think that some better quality sound-effects could have really elevated it. Still great. Hopefully despite GWs Black Crusade against independent content creators for 40k, we'll see more.
