Thanks Dice Goblin! Go grab yourself an awesome set of dice RIGHT NOW! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dicegoblin/dice-goblin-session-1-misfits-and-mayhem?ref=4g9etd
oh dear, i did the orc wyvern for my 11th birthday in 1993. with no pinning, suffice to say it broke soon after as it was only balenced on one leg.....stupid design
Excuse me- you forgot a credit. Flight of Dragons music all the way through the first part of the video. ua-cam.com/play/PL8jHsu_6xI7QXtuA8VjM7Caat3lJndBw4.html
I immeadiately recognised some of the music in this video! From my favourite childhood movie!! Flight of Dragons!!! Got to find that on my external drive and watch it again now... Thanks for the memory of good times!
Models are meant to be opened built and painted if they stay in the box it does nothing you might as well have a poster. Normalise opening old model boxes. I opened a screamer killer that was in the shrink wrap I bought when I was maybe 14 nearly 12 years ago I bought on eBay for 30 quid best experience of my life.
Hell yes! I love seeing older models inamongst GW's newer fare, particularly when people incorporate it into a modern army. I can understand how the billions of mono-pose space marines and lizardmen might end up sitting un-sprued and un-painted in countless bits boxes the world over, but it'd be a terrible shame if a model as marvellous as this one shared the same fate. Especially for the noble cause of painting a pink dragon :3
there's a great scene in a TV show about Toys with James May. He goes to a model train auction (since he has a run up in his attic and wanted a specific engine) and he sees the one he wants but its considered a 'collectors piece' which just means it's going to be kept in the box and not run. He proceeds to overbid for what it was worth and, at the auction, takes it out of the box, hands the clerk the box and asks them "yeah can you put that in the bin for me". The absolute look of horror on the collectors faces was priceless and he made the point that you made, these things were toys...for children...they were meant to be run and played with, not kept in the box and just stared at.
I totally agree, My mindset on perfectly mint condition stuff has totally changed over time. I still have a great respect for people that are able to keep their stuff as fresh as the day was made. But in my opinion I think that the emotional bond you build with something by actually using it, painting it, or playing with it is so much stronger. Having this mini sealed and mint condition especially if it was your first ever one would be very meaningful. But I think it's even more meaningful actually take it out of the box and give it the paint job you always dreamed of as a child.
Those old snake-like dragons were so awesome. I must admit I didn't appreciate them back in the day. Now I think they give the warhammer fantasy brand a unique and fairy tale kind of aesthetic.
My boy,Luke, is 7 and picked an undead dragon as his first model that was "his", so this feels really real! Good to know that if he follows in your footsteps, it'll only be 20 years till he paints it! Awesome stuff
Unsung hero of this video is Big Bro Josh. So wholesome to hear he wanted to help his lil' sis build a mini and paint it how you wanted. 10/10 big bro value. ❤ Great content, as ever. Keep it coming. 😊
Well done - beautiful work! I guess ya gotta be quick or this dubble bubble will take a bite out of you! I’ll bet his breath smells like big league chew. What kind of fire-equivalent do you think he spits out?
Damn that's a nostalgia blast from the past, I hadn't thought about that movie in such a long time but it, combined with The Last Unicorn and sitting down on a Friday night to play Hero Quest with the family is probably what made my a big old fantasy nerd.
Great job Hatty! Awesome to see these childhood dreams that we keep in our heads for so long without the ability to manifest them how we want to, and make them come to fruition, It looks absolutely fantastic. Never give up on your hobby dreams people.
Haha, That's soooo cool. I have a little sister aswell and she's amazed by my (mediocre) painted miniatures. I should maybe bring her to a warhammer shop someday.
I literally screamed when I heard the Flight Of Dragons theme at 2:15. Easily one of the most influential pieces of media coming in at the right time to make me who I am today.
I grew up near Peterborough myself and the Lord of the Rings models were my entry into 40k. I remember seeing those in the shop and being so excited to go in. I'm 29 and I recently returned to GW Peterborough and the magic of creativity is still there in the displays. Its great to hear of someone else having a similar entry into the hobby. You did an amazing job on that miniature!
@@warhatter I remember when they released the Return of the King stock I had real anxiety about it selling out before I could get into town. I remember going through secondary school and meeting people just as nerdy as I was and heading into to GW to paint in store. I have very fond memories of GW Peterborough and I'm pleased to see someone else does Hatty. I think your past self would be thrilled with the model you painted up and I can picture it on the spinny display right next to the Oliphants!
Looks EPIC. The green base just pulls it all together. Ah the glories of working with metal, I still gloss coat first out of habit. If you ever start to see shiny points, you know the top coat has rubbed off and you needed to do some touch up before you damage the paint. The good ole days lol. Army painter dip was a godsend back then.
This was my very first mini at the age of 11 or something like that. Definitely too much for a kid of that age. It got squashed badly while moving houses and it was never fixed, some of the broken bits also got lost over the years. In more recent times I was able to repurpose the dragon as basing material for a couple of my best paint jobs so far and I’m very pleased with the final results.
Oh my goodness, the hairs on my arms pricked up when the 'Flight of Dragons' score started at 2:09. That, and The Last Unicorn, was bascially my childhood. Feeling a bit teary now :)
Ooh spooky! I recently sold a copy of Imrik on eBay my sister brought in the early 2000's plus we lived in Peterborough at the time!!! Looks amazing in pink!!!
Incredibly awesome looking dragon! Great job and wonderful video. Thank you! :) I'm currently in the process of macing my own warhammer dreams come true by FINALLY owning an (or several) ACTUAL army/armies to play with. Back in the day I spent soooo long painting each mini, and reading the books and putting together lists that I never managed to get an army and actually playing the game. Another factor was that I was a child and Warhammer was/is expensive. But now I can afford an army or four, and while I don't have that much time to paint I DO have an airbrush :)
Hey Hattie : ) While Miliput is a good product, it dries up pretty coarse. A couple of alternatives are Tamiya Epoxy Putty (my present favourite), Magic Sculp and a combo of Green Stuff AND Tamiya Epoxy Putty : ) They all give app. 1 hour working time, ease surface to work on, and a smooth sandable texture. And they can be manipulated with water. Give it at try ? Great video and fantastic theme : ) Best regards from Denmark - Mike H
I had the (far superior) Malekith kit from when I was 10 😂 I found him in my storage unit, dragon still unassembled, and with a painted cloak of purple ink... I'll definitely get him sorted now that I've seen this. He deserves it, being the TRUE phoenix king after all
Wait. Was that the theme from The Flight of Dragons? Jesus, talk about transporting me back to my childhood with a note. Edit: OK, you actually reference this at the end of the video. Still, I was caught off guard.
@@mr.deviljho9789I really love the old sculpts, and as a sculpture/ceramicist myself I really really appreciate all the love and care that went into hand creating these original models The molds are made from. But I also get not liking them, some people prefer the cleaner computer made designs, and some of the older sculpts can definitely be very silly and goofy
@@mr.deviljho9789 whilst they're great and have their own charm, the modern sculpts are still amazing and oldhammer definitely gives a way more goofy vibe
@@the7569 I love them too, but somewhat in the middle - I don't like the over-the-top sculpts, but there are many with personality and their own charm compared to the stock standard faire you get these days.
Awesome video. Happy to see more videos from Hatty. Had no idea this miniature even existed it looks awesome. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.
I used to sneak in to my friends older brothers room in the early 80s, in one of his draws he had a really old gw model centaur ogre thing pushing some sort of War machine trolly device that had lots of spikes, blades and I think a big wooden fist on a pole i think. my first gw model was the old metal snottling pump wagon loved it, still got it in my fully metal Warhammer army
I didn't realise you had worked with Warhammer before MWM! That's awesome and you're doing an amazing job here I'm so glad MWM is expanding and exploring more avenues in content!
As a veteran of the Metal Mini era... longer pins of heavy paper clip, rough up the mating surfaces (even gouge them up or drill extra holes), then go for the beast of glue... 2 part 5 minute epoxy. You have to hold for many minutes, brace or clamp your parts until it's well set... but it's STRONG.
The model that really sparked my intresst was a tau drone, I never started collecting them but I'll always remmember them as the thing that got me into the hobby.
this will probs be lost. but a tip for glueing metal minis, use two part epoxy, the heavy duty stuff. and if you do remember to use less than you think ull need or itll gush out the sides. also pinning is your friend
Holy shit this was an AMAZING VIDEO, Hattie!!!! I am a super Fantasy fan and all the 40K stuff is an afterthought but MWM (Guy)does such a great job of being a wonderful ambassador to the hobby that it's hard not to love! Please keep up the mixed genre content!
Legit, the model that got me into painting was actually Guy's Ultramarine Intercessor speed paint. It really made me realize that I could make what I saw in my head a reality and now I have a hobby shelf that is overflowing with models.
Aluminium!!!! Lol! Its alright Hattie...I can't pronounce 'Brewery' for some reason. All of which is irrelevant as the dragon looks the business!!! The textures and skin tones alone were worthy of an award. Bravo!!
I love oldhammer so much! Useally when a channel that is based around one person introduces a new host it feels off but Hatty's videos are so good I enjoy them as much as the videos with Guy.
They both look really legit! All that regal purple fabric and bright silver armour on Imrik is pretty quintessentially High Elf, and his dragon being such a fantastically pink hue fits that factions vibe surprisingly well.
I started in 2012 with Dark Eldar. The idea of the pirate raiders, gladiatorial wyches, and genetic mutations from the covens... I was so tired of playing good guys in all the RPGs. They were never over the top strong, but I enjoyed every aspect of the hobby with them.
LOVE IT!! I find myself getting into a periodic rut of painting things how it 'should be painted' and inevitably, it stops being fun. Videos like this remind me that it's your plastic, your canvas and you should paint it how you like. Great Job Hattie! ☺
Hattie, you look much more comfortable presenting and being on camera, even from a month or two ago. Glad you are continuing to make videos and expand the MWM universe. Keep going!!
Another amazing video and fantastic work by Hatty! I remember going into a local hobby store and seeing all the 40k Models (pretty much the only game the store had come to think of it) and feel in love with the T'au (particularly the Hammerhead in that nice T'au sept orange that the T'au had for their box art that's sadly been pushed to the side in favor of the boring white). Its always awesome to be able to actually get, build, and paint those models we looked so fondly at back in the day
I was impatient to see the end result as soon as you started talking about that project. And the result is awesome. You did not disappoint me, you exceededmy expectations. Well done and congrats. 8 year old Hatty is happy, but 28yo Hatty can be really proud.
This model turned out GORGEOUS!! I love the colour scheme, and the throwback to the 90s models. So many wonderful memories growing up!!! Thanks for bringing me back, can't wait to see more!
man we really need some more retro fantasy stuff on the channel throughly enjoyed this one. for me when i was a kid the tomb kings really made me want to get into the hobby but sadly i never actually got any tomb kings. :(
I remember when I played 6th edition HATING this dragon (I played Vampire Counts). Yours looks absolutely incredible, 8 year old Hatti would be EXTREMELY PROUD
The Mûmakil for the LOTR tabletop game had to be the one. I still have a bunch of the OG LOTR metal models kicking around somewhere. I am sure the paint jobs are just... horrendus.
One of the first models that got me into painting minis was the Dragon King miniature for the Dark Sun AD&D setting. I currently have four of them. Right now I'm painting Dragon Lords miniatures by Grenadier. This is a board game using dragons on a 6mm scale. Plays exactly like Battletech (hex grid, cross out dots on certain body point for damage etc.). I got the base game and 11 blisters pack (each blister has 2 dragons inside). I have 10 more to paint after the one I'm working on right now.
This sponsorship came at the perfect time as I am just starting to build a Pathfinder Goblin druid. That model is one of the first model I ever saw as a child. I have always loved the fantasy elves. Amazing job on this one!
I collected High Elves when I was in my early teens, and remember staring longingly at that older lead version of that dragon, and Eltharion the Grim on his griffon... I wasn't well off enough for either though, had to make do with mostly the basic plastic archer and spearman box and a few blister pack heroes. I eventually got Teclis and he was my prized possession, stuck to a hefty piece of slate for a base 😂
Pink is one of my favorite colors. Seeing someone take the time to make such a fantastical color palette for something so classic is just wonderful. I remember going to the comic shop to watch my friend play MTG and seeing the Warhammer boxes lining the shelves. They even had some Middle Earth sets. But what really got me interested was the people playing with some Tyranids that they had hand painted. Honestly, I think what killed me from enjoying the game/models wasn't the fact that I was about 20 years behind at the time, it was the price lol
Funny coincidence, my childhood dream Model was the Square 40k cybot, complete lump of Metal. Bought one last week and now finishing it in the colors of my Chapter, the 'Azul Hunters'.
Thanks Dice Goblin! Go grab yourself an awesome set of dice RIGHT NOW! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dicegoblin/dice-goblin-session-1-misfits-and-mayhem?ref=4g9etd

Man I love how strange older monsters looked. There isn’t a focus on anatomy it’s more like they were bringing medieval depictions to life.
And they were drawn by people who had been told about a monster fish but having never seen one they went wild with the pics
Those old snake-like dragons were so awesome. I must admit I didn't appreciate them back in the day. Now I think they give the warhammer fantasy brand a unique and fairy tale kind of aesthetic.
Agree. I was hung up on TSR/DnD dragons and didn't fully appreciate what I had until it was gone.

Good to know that if he follows in your footsteps, it'll only be 20 years till he paints it!

@@RogueWraith909doesn't necessarily do damage but creates huge areas of difficult terrain

Flight of Dragons definitely holds a dear place from my childhood too Guy. Little Hattie would be so proud of this dragon, well done!!!

Love that movie. Though I heard the theme playing.
Love that movie. Randomly found it on DVD a while back. The art style and the impossible noses are perfection. Also not a bad adaptation of the book.
It’s genuinely a stunning paint job, any young girl would be proud to have that in their army. Well done 👍

Epic Music. The Flight of Dragons is known for its weird dragons (No other movie describes a dragon as a 747); the model fits right in. :)

This might actually inspire me to finish off the Wood Elf Dragon I’ve had half finished for 25 years
Cutest video on the channel
no offence to Guy (he is great), but more Hatty please.

She has this vibe to her- it’s energetic and bubbly, vs. Guy’s more subdued chill vibes
2nd Ed Ork Traktor Kannon for me, as painted in the 2nd Ed Ork Codex.

Great job hatty my mom used to collect wood elves when she was a kid in the eighties she had that model
I really love that this is a childhood dream come true
The end product is fantastic
My first ever model was the Officio Perfectus Commissar model, that kicked off the hobby and an enduring love of the Guard
ALYOUMINIYUM ......Aluminium.
Amazing job Hatty! Absolutely love the pink dragon!
Nicely done hun. Always do something for the child in you 😊
As soon as i heard that music i was like WAIT, that's flight of dragons. My all time favourite childhood movie and inspired me forever into fantasy
All that's left is to find a shop window for it to inspire another little girl.

You could say the 95 version was 'eavy metal
FUN FACT!:If you add a drop of water to super glue, It bonds almost instantly, so helpful for resin.
LOVE IT!!
I find myself getting into a periodic rut of painting things how it 'should be painted' and inevitably, it stops being fun.
Videos like this remind me that it's your plastic, your canvas and you should paint it how you like.
Great Job Hattie! ☺
Paint with your soul 🤩
I started painting and playing in 2006 and I LOVED the necron warriors! It was my first box I ever bought. Wonderful video! Enjoy your dragon!
Stunning job, love it.
Holy crap this was cute AF. I'm not crying. It's just super glue fumes.
Hattie, you look much more comfortable presenting and being on camera, even from a month or two ago. Glad you are continuing to make videos and expand the MWM universe. Keep going!!

Its always awesome to be able to actually get, build, and paint those models we looked so fondly at back in the day
Awesome job Hatty. Much respect. Love it
I was impatient to see the end result as soon as you started talking about that project. And the result is awesome.
You did not disappoint me, you exceededmy expectations. Well done and congrats. 8 year old Hatty is happy, but 28yo Hatty can be really proud.
Such a fun project. Nice work, Hattie.
I think that was the music from "flight of Dragons"? I havent seen that in forever, what a great movie!
probably shouldnt have commented until i saw the whole video haha! Great work guys
those warhammer dragons were so expensive.
This is so awesome! Great model with even greater backstory. Congrats Hattie!
This model turned out GORGEOUS!! I love the colour scheme, and the throwback to the 90s models. So many wonderful memories growing up!!! Thanks for bringing me back, can't wait to see more!
Thank you!
HELL YEAH MY SISTER IS A PATRON NOW!!!!!
I really liked the nostalgia and personal approach in this video. Well done, I really enjoyed it.
man we really need some more retro fantasy stuff on the channel throughly enjoyed this one. for me when i was a kid the tomb kings really made me want to get into the hobby but sadly i never actually got any tomb kings. :(
you impressed us all, and made little Hatty Proud I'm sure of it!! fantastic fantastic fantastic work!!
It looks wonderful. And should you have your own child one day, I agree that their eyes will stare in fascination at this mighty and vivid beast!
I remember when I played 6th edition HATING this dragon (I played Vampire Counts). Yours looks absolutely incredible, 8 year old Hatti would be EXTREMELY PROUD
Oh my, what a paint job. Absolutely love it. For me it’s the old metal dwarfs especially the slayers
This was amazing! I hope you can enter it into the Golden Demon next year!
Now thats a strong pink horror
The Mûmakil for the LOTR tabletop game had to be the one. I still have a bunch of the OG LOTR metal models kicking around somewhere. I am sure the paint jobs are just... horrendus.
One of the first models that got me into painting minis was the Dragon King miniature for the Dark Sun AD&D setting. I currently have four of them. Right now I'm painting Dragon Lords miniatures by Grenadier. This is a board game using dragons on a 6mm scale. Plays exactly like Battletech (hex grid, cross out dots on certain body point for damage etc.). I got the base game and 11 blisters pack (each blister has 2 dragons inside). I have 10 more to paint after the one I'm working on right now.
This sponsorship came at the perfect time as I am just starting to build a Pathfinder Goblin druid. That model is one of the first model I ever saw as a child. I have always loved the fantasy elves. Amazing job on this one!
That’s the coolest dragon I’ve seen. Thank you for sharing that and your story behind it.
You painted this beautifully, Hatty. I'm glad you could make your childhood dream come true.
I collected High Elves when I was in my early teens, and remember staring longingly at that older lead version of that dragon, and Eltharion the Grim on his griffon... I wasn't well off enough for either though, had to make do with mostly the basic plastic archer and spearman box and a few blister pack heroes. I eventually got Teclis and he was my prized possession, stuck to a hefty piece of slate for a base 😂
I love seeing a passion project :D
Beautiful work, and congrats on fulfilling a childhood hobby dream!
Pink is one of my favorite colors. Seeing someone take the time to make such a fantastical color palette for something so classic is just wonderful.
I remember going to the comic shop to watch my friend play MTG and seeing the Warhammer boxes lining the shelves. They even had some Middle Earth sets. But what really got me interested was the people playing with some Tyranids that they had hand painted. Honestly, I think what killed me from enjoying the game/models wasn't the fact that I was about 20 years behind at the time, it was the price lol
Funny coincidence, my childhood dream Model was the Square 40k cybot, complete lump of Metal. Bought one last week and now finishing it in the colors of my Chapter, the 'Azul Hunters'.
