I liked your review of the Kit itself at the start, would love to see more like it, especially new releases like this.
thank you. i plan on doing videos on all the new plastic releases and the resin characters that are relevant to my current projects.
@@heresyera Let's hope we get the mythical plastic melee upgrades soon. And there are rumours flying around of a new box with new Mk II plastic marines and saturnine terminators. Would be pretty cool if true
@@punecMkII would be perfect for non-corrupted IW chosen in 40k. I hope that’s true
@@punec seriously - we need plastic melee weapons and combat arms. We also gravely need breacher, seeker, and recon kits. Would be cool if they did a standalone breacher kit, and then a seeker / recon upgrade sprue. One can only dream. Wouldnt be surprised if the saturnine terminators are the first upscaled terminators and then they revisit the cataphractii and tartaros
@@CMTechnica Yeah I hope too. The rumor was that the set was painted like IW vs Salamanders and the new command squad has those legions on the transfer sheet so it could be true
If the next thing you're planning is traitorous, I'd love to see some World Eaters
I really appreciate your clear presentation style with these videos. It's already levelling my paint up. Thanks!
You're like the emperor of mankind, that stayed concealed until the people of terra was ready for him to show up.
I hope this channel grow up to push the hype around this great game ambientation that I love.
Looking forward to new contents. I very like the efficency of your work. Good job mate.
thank you so much. really appreciate it. your feedback motivates me to make more horus heresy content.
I love all of your imperial fists related content. They are my favorite legion. I would still very much like to see you do some imperial fists terminators next
Next Imperial Fists video will be a Contemptor Video but I can probably get some terminators up.
@@heresyera That also sounds great! I look forward to watching it
Looks brilliant!! My friend is about to start his own Imperial Fist army shortly and I just sent this to him!
I'm about to start Night Lords myself, so I'm hoping they are next on the list, and are as simple and effective as these guys! 😁
Appreciate you sharing the video. I do love NL and they are on the list, but they are further down. Right now working through the Siege of Cthonia armies.
I'd like to say you Command my attention with these excellent videos! Bravo!
Amazing work. I'm really enjoying your videos. I'm a total newbie to Warhammer and your videos are very informative
thank you. i appreciate hearing that.
Painting and kit review, your content just keeps getting better
I want to focus on mini kit reviews in each video before painting. Especially on the newer kits.
Nice video, you explained your steps well, a great job
glad you covered the Sons of Dorn.
Great stuff, really clear and instructive!
This is a wonderfully comprehensive and practical approach to group painting. Very well done.
Thank you
Excellent video production and I appreciate the mini kit review at the start.
What a great detailed description of your painting process. Well done!
thank you
Beautiful work as usual mate!
you are the best wh40k painter i've seen. amazing quality of the videos and narration, and great skills in painting. keep up the good work, you're great!
i would love to see you approach to herecy era world eaters legion.
thank you. i want to do some mid / late heresy world eaters but they are pretty far back in priority right now.
nice and methodical. Nice video
another awesome video! thank you.
Hope one day to see night lords but i doubt, anyway, great job, love the brick guys you've done ! Gonna paint mine in midnight clad :)
so many people have asked for Nightlords that i might have to move them up in priority
Ave Dominis Nox Brother.
They look awesome. I've been eyeing off the upgrade sprue because I want that standard. I'm going to use it to make a chapter ancient for 40k. I can see some other bits and pieces that I like too. This was another great tutorial. Thanks for sharing!
I know they are super painful, but I would love to see a video on how to paint and weather drop pods. They are my favourite thing about space marines.
i’ve done tons of drop pods. assembling them is usually the biggest pain. doing to do some crashed pods soon as part of a terrain video
@@heresyera I still haven't worked out a way to assemble them effectively. I look forward to that terrain video.
I would love to see more Terminators
I *love* that banner. Can’t wait for mine to arrive, my Dark Angels Praetor (and myself), are very impatient.
dark angles have great transfers for the banner too
When I opened my kit and saw the two separate banners I was so stoked ngl. Between needing a legion herald for 4 different legions, a standard for a chieftain squad, and an actual command squad, I am going to get some mileage out of this kit. If only it had a few more of those Tigris bolt pistols...
You can get sooo much mileage out of this sprue and use it for a lot of different squads. We need that close combat sprue with more bolt pistols, combat arms and some of the other power weapons in plastic.
@@heresyera yeah, I'm hoping we get something like that soon. Maybe with whatever must be in the pipe for GW to include new Legions on the decal sheet. Breachers and chain axes would be nice.
You sound like Patrick Bateman painting freaking Warhammer
Awesome! I have this kit in the mail. Going to do Iron Warriors squad with the big banner and a Sons of Horus counsel with the small banner holding the helmet.
The kit is really good for Iron Warriors. The parts themselves stylistically lend themselves to iron warriors and the inclusion of iron warriors transfers is a huge plus.
I'd love to see how you'd do stuff like the effrit disruption cadre for the alpha legion, It's a little more kitbashy but seeing your take on the dark furies and mor deythan from the RG army showcase makes me really curious to see how you'd do it! Insane looking models and mad production skills, keep up the amazing work!
appreciate it. I will be returning and doing an alpha legion infantry video and possibly a tank video for them too.
Amazing painting, basing and transfers. They look fantastic! The highlights on the nuncio vox were particularly cool. That banner us also hands down one of the most beautiful I've seen. Dorn himself would be proud of that.
Thanks man.
Marvelous!
Another awesome video. Cheers
As a new beginner, I would love to see a review and tutorial about the dark angels ❤
it will happen but not for a few months likly -
Love the video 🤘🔥
Can you someday maybe paint up a breacher squad?
i’m holding out for the new plastic breacher squad - breacher are one of my favorite units
@@heresyera got the resin kit XD still need to build it tho, but yeh. Hoping for the plastic box.
@@rebellars60 the resin kit isnt bad. Ive probably done 40-50x of the old breachers. They have the pistol grips in the hands and you can paint the bolters and shields separate which will speed them up.
I love the look of the kit and paint job! Maybe do a word bearer one next??
i have a gal vorbak video coming but doing the mk6 as word bearers isn’t a bad idea. my original leaning was sons of horus as so many people have asked for them
I just discovered your channel today, lovely content, keep it up!
I am so happy with the new Command Squad kit. I am considering using it on Rubric Marines bodies for my Thousand Sons, as a kind of ornate MKIV legion-specific squad. Probably using MKIV backpacks and Achaean helmets to keep it grounded in 30k. I'd love to see your take on their metallic red!
That would be awesome. I have a video coming on some Loyalist thousand sons. Transfers should be here from the printer this week. A friend, Scott, from Heretic Games, gave me the recipe for the armor. He has an awesome Thousand Sons force.
hell yea!
Do Dark Angels, I need to see my boys to be done beautifully.
100% doing dreadwing
Amazing!
I really like your channel. Personally i really like kitbashing basically every single model for my armies, just having a big pile of legs, torsos, arms etc... picking together my marines like in buildabear. But this channel is just kinda a representation of a more vanilla army building style. You really show what can be done with that simple out-of-box style. And the editing and little cinematics in the intro are great!
Thanks man. I do a lot of subtle kit bashes throughout my armies. I never go too heavy with conversions and generally aim to try and make them so subtle that one would generally not notice. This is still a very new channel and im really still building the foundation right now and will later move to the less conventional units and builds.
@@heresyera i mean i actually think this "box art" feel you have could really be a nieche your channel could neatly fit into. There are a lot of them out there already which do "i made the craziest custom preator" and stuff. What id actually like to see more of would be rescuing old 40k stuff to put to use in the heresy. Maybe a video idea? I know box naughts are useable with legends rules for example, and forgeworld used to make beautiful mk4 ones for all major chapters and chaos legions.
@@heresyera also, maybe some less common paint schemes from tje old black books? Slate grey word bearers, nemesis ultramarines, camo white scars, some of the more exotic alpha Legion schemes in black and orange which are described... i imagine all that looking great on the new marines.
amazing work on keeping the yellow looking yellow! a very underated skill!
yellow was always such a difficult color when i started painting in 2nd / 3rd ed but with the modern paints it’s soooo much easier and consistent -! thank you
You just had to get me hooked on heresy didn't you.😂
Get on the Heresy Train
5 star videos mate!
You're awesome! You should try painting Heresy-Era Knights!
next video is a Knight video -!
I know this is awfully ironic to ask for on an imperial fists video, but I’d love to see your take on some iron warriors
Dang that was quick. Mine haven't even come yet XD
i pre ordered this set from my local game store, Heretic Games and got them at release - i orderd a few alongside the characters from GW and they haven’t even shipped yet -
Great job man! Looking forward to the traitor command squad.
hoping for some ultramarines soon
oooooft looks epic
So this is where all of the really cool old-school Marine option sprues went too...all the more reason to play Heresy then.
as a player who has been into warhammer since 2nd edition, i barely recognize 40k now. 30k still has so much of what brought me into the game in the first place.
Another superb paint job and tutorial! Yellow ain't my color lol, but I will be patient for my preferred legions when the time comes
what legions are you painting?
@@heresyera I run emperor's children and salamanders :)
Already done???
5 marines is pretty quick
I'd like to get myself a MK3 Kit someday!
it’s worth picking up for a command squad or simply to get some cool bits for a veteran squad or random sergeants
@@heresyera Most definitely, I'll see about getting a box set or two one day
Yes! Another banger!
bro has 3k subs but makes masterpieces
doing it for the love of heresy
INcroyable !!! Magnifique !!! même ma femme les trouves beau xD
Blood angels Soon ?
Ultramarines! Please!
Great video - I appreciate your distinct style while painting, pretty conservative (mostly Citadel acrylics, no oils or enamels) but not exactly 'Eavy Metal, streamlinef and focused on efficiency without compromising on quality. I'm just starting my hobby journey with Iron Warriors and try to find what works for me so it's nice to see you work :D
BTW you don't have any issues with glueing pistols/grenades after painting? No super glue creeping over the paintjob? They hold well without direct plastic to plastic contact?
thank you. no issue gluing over paint - i still seal the models after adding the grenades so it gives eveything a consistent sheen. i try and keep things as simple and efficient as possible. the process you commit to can be the difference between finishing an army or not.
When gluing on your sub assemblies, do you use plastic cement or superglue? (I imagine superglue since the paint won't allow plastic cement to set.)
I just use super glue. with the arms and feet being glued pre paint - the models are very sturdy and have no problem withstanding the use from regular gaming.
Really nice squad! QUestion for the campaign, do you plan to use the same AI to do the voice? or a mix of different voices?
its a mix of voices. narrator is AI, live action is actual voices.
Hey I have a question what would you recommend for a thousand sons army the mkIII or the mkVI command squad?
i’d do mk3 with acheon pattern helmets for a command squad. acheon are mk2/3 helmets and look awesome.
IRON WARRIORS!!!!! Please
🙏 🙏🙏🙏
I cant decide on a legion dudes
Many thanks for these videos man!
May I ask if you have any tips on how to make a traitor legion using the MK6 kits? I have a bunch of those as well as mk4 that I want to use to make a traitor legion to fight against my Imperial Fists, but they look so bland and I don't know how to make them look different.
Cheers!
MK6 works for any traitor legion out of the box. Just make sure you get some appropriate transfers and look at the color plates in the books. If you want something to counter the imperial fists, Sons of Horus are a pretty easy choice as their transfers come in all of the plastic kits and they are an iconic traitor legion. Alternatively, you could do something like Iron Warriors or Alpha Legion pretty easily. But regardless which legion you pick, Id do a mix of armor marks.
@@heresyera Many thanks mate. I have some Mk6, MK5 and Mk4 minis, as well as cataphractii and indomitus termies.
Would this work with some Sons of Horus? whast else would I need aside from the transfers?
@@Nusphigoreall of that would work. the cataphractii are more on theme and common then the indomitous - if you haven’t ordered transfers yet, you can always get the Forge world mark 6 helmet upgrade kits. you can buy a single pack and use them as sergeant helmets to add a little more cthonian style and help the leaders stand out a bit more.
@@heresyera many many thanks man! I will look up for your suggestions
What do you use for your sand mixture?
I use a mix i made myself that resembles the old Citadel Sand from back in the day - the closest off the shelf is a mix of Gale Force 9 Fine Grit and Medium grid. Use about 80% fine and 20% medium.
@@heresyera Ah thank you!
How do you paint death guard?
They have a few painting guides coming - one for infantry and another for vehicles.
What model is that captain in the thumbnail? It looks awesome.
Its the plastic Fafnir Rann body with the Forge World Imperial Fists praetor arms and head.
@@heresyera thanks, might have to steal that for my army
when Death Guard painting tutorial?
vehicle and infantry tutorial is coming
0:24 wait, Sons Of Horus Green (trademark) is BLU?? Also do you hold grudge against Abaddon, everytime you say Chaos Black XD
SOH Green is a dark green / blue. The more green tone comes from the Lupercal Green or Sybarite Green. Thats funny, hahaha. Back when I started it was only Chaos black, maybe my age is showing.
I have the feeling my Emperor‘s children need those. You bring me to buy new things from GW curse you…… damn who I’m gonna give the fault! 😂😂😂
MK6 command Squad with EC heads and pads would be so good. Be awesome to get a few Phoenix spears too in there.
I'm going to say it again.....................................................MORE EMPEROR'S CHILDRENS
you guys are chipping away at me
I can’t tell if you’re using an ai voice, or if you’re just that robotic lol
No hate though great video!
maybe both?
Hey man, love the videos but I hate the AI voice. If you're not confident in your own, do it anyway, as anything would be better than the AI gen stuff.
AI speeds the production process up. Voice can be a bit hit or miss. Some people love the AI voice (especially non native eng speakers) and some people cant stand it. I try to make 2x-3x painting videos a week and if I had to record / mix / do performance takes for my own voice, it would probably drop to 1x. Real voices will be in bat reps and other live action content.
Hey brotha’ this looks PHENOMENAL‼️ 🤙🧐
I saw you in Valrak’s chat the other night… He does “Members Models” days ever week, & he’s OBVIOUSLY a Son of Dorn lol You should post yours! Everybody would love it.
HOWEVER… For The Lion‼️ 🤌 lol
Ill drop them in. That was a pretty hilarious moment in his video.
