Don't forget to let me know what other resin and 3d printable parts you'd recommend for customising your Salamander army!
Please make one of these videos for the Sisters of battle
I saw red Warden miniatures has a decent free 3d file for some fancy salamander chapter symbol shoulder pads
I really like the video but there is one thing you did wrong the salamanders have black backpacks not green
Finally, I now have everything I need to paint every Ultramarine I come across glorious Salamanders green! VULCAN LIVES!!!
Quick tip: just add a yellow glaze to Ultramarines to turn them into a much better chapter ;)

I would love to see this done for the Iron Hands. Glory to the Gorgon!
Maybe one day!
I don't really play, but I do have an Iron Hands venerable dreadnought. I replaced the head with a more robotic Tau one and added some Mechanicum weapons on little mecha-tentacles or whatever they're called.
Video would be about 2 minutes long with the current state of iron hands lore lmao
I've heard of the Gorgon... Not a great head on his shoulders.

A very Salamander army is 18 flamer Aggressors, 18 Eradicators, 2 Land Raider Redeemers, Vulkan, and an Apothecary Biologis with Bolter Discipline enhancement. It may be difficult to do mission objectives due to the small number of squads, but they are rather durable and capable of killing stuff.
Sounds absolutely brutal!
honestly i would swap out some of the eradicators and aggressors for heavy intercessors
Do you really need that many troops, when the enemy's infantry and vehicles/monsters are all charred, smoking ruins?
Current list is as follows
2 Land Raider redeemer's
2 invader atvs w/ multi meltas
Drop pod
Adrax w/6 blade guard
Captain in gravis armor w/ 6 Flame aggressors
Vulkan He'stan and librarian (for 4+ invul) w/ 10 infernus marines
6 eradicators w/ Apothecary Biologis for lethal hits
5 infiltrators
@@evilmonkeylords The Gravis Captain, He'Stan, and Agatone bricks are very efficient for how thematic they are, I love this army.
Look at the tastful thickness of the paint, the subtle highlights. Oh my God, he even put burn marks on the barrel.
This is easily one of the best videos you’ve made, here’s hoping the pride of Baal is next
I'm sure this video took a lot of work Guy but I would adore more videos like this. My beloved Blood Angels getting a video would be really special!
It took a ton of work, yes, but it was a new format, so that was always going to be the case. My first video took 2 months to make, haha
I could not have wished to be featured in a MWM video in a better way than with that drawing of Salamander Face.
As Guy said, "He is beuty, he is grace. *He has a Salamander face.*
These guys helped me when i was in a very dark part of my life. I was depressed, absolutely hated myself, and the pandemic made things worse. I had a hard time picking my army when i decided to get into the hobby but i ultimately picked Salamanders and it was the best decisions ive ever made. I loved learning they're lore and painting them was really fun and now my mental health has greatly improved and so has my skill, tho I'm no where as good as you.
That's really nice to hear, glad you're in a better place now!
@@MidwinterMinis you were also a really big part in my journey. I would listen to you talk while I was painting. It's honestly relaxing. You're an amazing guy and keep being amazing
Man we really have a mental health crisis in the states. Technology, relationships (or lack of), pandemic and culture have really caused alot of people to hide away in a dark space. We need more help and good rolemodels to help lift the population out of the funk. Glad your doing better and wish nothing but happiness for you.
@@zzconmanzz1 thanks
Vulcan is proud of you, your strength to stand up to your demons means you're right at home with the 18th Astartes. Keep it up 🔥🔥🔥
LETS GO!!! I LOVE SALAMANDERS!!! Other easy conversions are just using MK3 heads & Shoulders, Red-Warden miniatures also has some fantastic 3d printable bits!
Plus lyche skin makes great lizard scale fabric! Not my idea!
Though its official, and thus more expensive.
The Forge World Salamanders Decals for the Horus Heresy are absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
Yeah, I've heard even from people who like to keep things on a budget that the FW transfers are veeery nice
Sad, though, as they tend to go the way of the dodo without much warning or get replaced with newer sheets that have lost some of the magic :(
For the chapter symbol, it looks like the standard SM transfer sheets now come with Salamander specific decals. Finally getting some representation from GW is nice to see.
The transfer sheet from leviathan doesn't seem to have Salamanders on it
@@hidebehindapole8669Im talking about if you get something like a new box of eradicators the new transfer sheet has Salamanders on it. I was a little disappointed when they weren’t on the leviathan sheet but it looks like I’ll have plenty moving forward 😁
Please make this a series its amazing!
I've always watched your videos since I got into warhammer so I might aswell say it here, I finally managed to go England and see a warhammer store in person it was cool
Very cool!
@@MidwinterMinis went to warhammer world 2 weeks ago, was very epic and i got a reaver titan (titanicus scale lol)
Has someone who just started collecting Warhammer and my first army is salamanders this videos brings me great joy
The new studio looks great man! I really loved this video. The lore part was epic, and the painting was also amazing, perfect content as always Guy, great stuff 👏👏👏
Thanks matey! Nice to hear you think the style-gamble paid off :)
@@MidwinterMinis it’s great :)
Love the idea of this series, lore, hobby and tactics in one video. Also a good reference point for newer players wanting to find out more without the fear of going down rabbit holes. Keep it up! (looking forward to some of the successor chapters!)
Really like this new kind of video! Always thought I wasn't that bothered about collecting Space Marines compared to other factions but you've now got me thinking about Salamander successor chapter colour schemes! Also love a cork based base!
I am STOKED for this series. Especially the conversions and tactics ideas. Looking forward to the next installment!
This a great series idea and would love to see more, hope we can see more factions in the future like guard regiments or eldar craftworlds
I foresee this series being an absolute powerhouse! So much great info for conversions in one place. I'm forever asked by friends where to get bits and I've got an extensive library but its hard to remember all the companies. Will be grest to just point them to a video like this and the description for links. Great resource for years to come!
Fantastic video Guy; now I have a perfect excuse to make my own Slamanaders army
Some other things about the Salamanders too:
- Vulkan is a perpetual. Everytime he dies, his body disappears and he respawns somewhere else in the galaxy.
Vulkan lives, and his return is inevitable!
- Salamanders are very self-reliant; they frequently make their own custom field repairs to their weapons and equipment instead of getting it repaired by a Techmarine: no two Slamander weapons are the same, so you can go nuts with not just armour upgrades, but weapon upgrades as well!
Absolutely one of the best chapter overview videos I’ve seen, and I’ve looked at quite a lot of them. I think you did a great job of capturing the nature of the salamanders who I love. Some great ideas that I’m going to try on the customization. Vulkan lives!
I know the danger of long videos can affect the way UA-cam promotes them, but this was really engaging Guy. You will never convert someone who has been a Space Wolf since 3rd Ed so this should show you how engaging it was. (Loved the basing ideas.) I am looking forward to the next in the series.
I feel like you revisited the lava tyranids idea for the first lava base, and I can say that looks a LOT better than before the little differences means everything, maybe a neutral grey dry brush after wards and some ash black texture paint in some random areas and it’ll look legendary
That second base looked fantastic.
This is a brilliant idea for new collectors, can’t wait to see new additions to it as they come, great to see when stock-standard space marines become a really unique and personal force to a player :)
I thought this was an awesome video. There is slight chapter bias but I’m excited to see if this becomes a continued series or not 🐲🔥
Thanks pal! Glad you liked it
I wish this video existed when I was just starting with Warhammer back at the start of 9th edition, Salamanders were my first army and working on them and playing games with them was a large part of what kept me sane during Covid. I'm really proud of how they look, and I've been meaning to go back and put the finishing touches on them and finish up the stuff that still needs more work, I'm going to try and utilize some of these tips when I do.
Thanks for all the great ideas, Guy. Would love to see more of this series, even though you've already covered my favorite chapter. Vulkan lives!
SALAMANDERS MENTIONED 💥💥💥💥🦅🦅🦅🐉🐉🐉🎉🎉🎉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Awesome video. Definitely fills a need for lore, kits, and painting in one video. Also, the new studio looks great!
5:20 it's also worth pointing out that the Eldar (not sure if they were Drukhari at the time,) used to come onto Nocturne and hunt the people for sport before Vulkan was picked up by Big E. This is more of the reason why Salamanders strongly dislike the Eldar, but more specifically the Drukhari.
i sometimes burn out on painting, then mwm makes a new video and i feel inspired again
This should most definitely be a series, I’d love to see some of the more peculiar chapters like the iron hands or space wolves
I honestly couldn't be bothered with Space Marines until recently when I found out just how cool the Sallies are. Great video!
That trick for the three base coats is exactly what I needed for batch painting! Thank you so much, MWM!
MY FAVORITE (loyalist) LEGION YESSSSSS
Kate's art is just amazng!
I think I have the exact same glass as the one you drink out of at the start here. Nice choice of drink too
Not a painter, not a wargamer, and familiar with the lore for the most part..
But watched the whole thing and gave a like/comment for the algorithm!
Another great video Guy. New studio looks awesome. Cheers 😊!
Glad you like it!
PLEASE make this a full series
First of all Vulkan lives!
This is my type of content. everything in one video whilst i work. Great work.
Dark Krakens are my space Marines i started painting which is appropriate considering they are from the Leviathan box where they hunt bog bugs.
being a salamander player this makes me very happy :D
The new studio looks great! And the Salamander looks even greater!! But i think instead of "Astartes Archive" it should be "Archive Astartes". Just seems fitting with "Adeptus Astartes".
I love the idea for this series, and I'm really glad it started with the Salamanders -- super underrated chapter. Of course I'd love to see this branch out to other factions, like the Imperial Guard regiments, but I also know that's asking a *lot* given just how many Astartes chapters there are to go through!
YEAH!!! The Salamanders are where my chapter comes from, so it's great so see Guy do them!
Love the longer format. I could start and stop, jump around, and get a ton of info in one place! Thank you for making and sharing. Can't wait for the next one!
Kate's drawing of a salamander Salamander may be the best thing ever.
Couldnt have asked for a better video on my favorite chapter!
Seeing you paint Raven guard would be AWESOME!!!
I like this idea. One stop videos for everything, and it's MWM. Couldn't ask for more.
I love the Salamanders! Their colours, their lore, their primarch, their usage of "dragons" and fire... The only space marine mini I ever painted was a Salamander.
I play chaos space marines and my warband's lore is that they were Salamanders corrupted by the Alpha Legion...so I paint their skin black.
Btw, I really like that you chose the Salamanders as the first chapter in what I hope will become a series covering all the chapters. Blood Angels next, please :)
Great start to a series, love that you've included conversion ideas and sources for bits.
Both lore and assembling tips? Hell yeah.
New studio is pretty lit
Please keep this idea going this is incredible
Proud Patreon supporter 🫡
Awesome concept for this video- would definitely tune in for more of these on other chapters/factions !
Awesome video! I love the clarity and simplicity of the painting guide! I'd love to see this for more chapters!
Thanks for including my mini (on its best side too no less)! I'm not the most accomplished painter by any stretch, in fact I would say mine was the least good of the bunch, some truly amazing painters in the community! But I'm super happy with the freehanded flames and for an experiment (I'm an ork boy mainly) I don't think its too shabby!
Great idea! Congrats! Looking forward for the wolves🐺🐺🐺
Awesome video! Can’t wait to see the rest of the chapters!
I enjoy the structure and format of this video, going into different aspects of the chapter/legion. I think it would be nice if you did continue this format for other chapters.
great content, hopr this continues
Great video. Hope this Astartes Archive series continues! I’d love to see it cover all 18 legions.
Don't need another episode, already did the best chapter!
I'm new to 40k. I've been playing and building for about two months. I've dove deeply into creator content to engulf myself with this wonderful game. I have to say, your video is a cut above the rest. Full breakdown. You put a lot into this and I love it. Big ups my guy. 😎
It is a glorious time to be a Salamanders player!!!
Into the fires of battle, unto the Anvil of War!
Vulkan Lives!!!
Vulcan Lives!
I've been meaning to start painting Salamanders for a while now, as I have a number of old Tacticals sitting in my pile of shame. I considered doing a few for the recent 90s marines painting challenge, but had to go out of state for a week, which scuppered any possibility of that. I definitely think a set of Sternguard Veterans using heavy Spellcrow parts would look lovely.
For those looking to spice up the paint scheme, consider painting flames on legs of your infantry. Drawing the brush downward only can make the flames seem to fade as they rise, as paint tends to collect where the brush stroke ends.
If you're making drake scales on your models, consider using a completely different color from the armor, like red or yellow, to make them pop.
This is the kind of video i was looking for!! Lore, painting, fun and excellent content, and a great host!! Cheers mate, very good job, will see the next on this series for sure!!
Love this idea and format. Great video!
10/10 video my man - I can’t wait to see a whole series of this.
Of course the first founding chapters are always a hit, but I’d love you to do some of the lesser known but equally cool chapters like the Necropolis Hawks, Minotaurs, Soul Drinkers, Astral Claws - I could go on and on! Cheers!
One of my favorite videos you’ve ever done! I hope the next one brings glory to the khan! I could really use some help with the white paint
Love the format of this video!
Re. The series name: Midwinter Marines was RIGHT THERE
This is by far one of the best videos you've made, everything you need to know in one video definitely would like to see a series that is for sure :)
"Huzzah! A man of quality!"
I've been using thermoplastic moulding material (blue stuff) to make impressions/moulds from the Forgeworld Firedrake Terminators, particularly the tabards, for my conversions. There's also loads of 3d printed helmets (shapeways and etsy) with stylized drake helms similar to those worn by aforementioned Terminators and the Pyroclasts.
Also I've gone for a slightly more natural/muted green using Molotow Premium's Fern Green as the main colour, sprayed from above and sides leaving the black just showing on the undersides. The whole model is then given a Biel Tan green wash then given a light drybrush with Moot Green for quick and easy highlight, giving the impression of shadows on the underside but still with a slight green tone.
30:07 That ironclad dreadnought in the end 🤤
The new studiolook looks amazing
Excellent format, and salamanders is even better - as soon as I had the Leviathanbox in my hands I thought "what better against those nasty bugs than fire?"
My fav faction! working on the new terminators right now and some great tips for basing and faces!
I love this idea for a series.
And i love the salamanders
Yes to this as a new series.
Great video, love to see attention being given to the Salamanders
As a Salamander painter myself, here's some other tipps:
1) I prefer to do the opposite of Guy's lava base effect but that's just preference. Instead of making the spots darker, you can go the other way around and start off with a uniform red and then go lighter. Gives it a much more subdued look.
2) Experiment with secondary colours. For example the red eye lenses work from a lore standpoint but often they're depicted with yellow ones instead, hiding their red eyes. This can be used to make unhelmeted marines stand out a bit more and imo aids the more humane look of the Salamanders.
Further I usually paint any scales in a dark red but I've also seen them in black or violet. This breaks up the green nicely. Same thing wiht the gold, you can go for a dirty look with a brown wash or give it a red tinge with a red wash, which makes it stand out that bit more from the green
3) To get some of that dusty look if you want to have your Salmanders in an ashy field or waste, use pigment powders! They're excellent for this though not that good at sticking around if you actually play with them unless you lock them in with a coat of varnish, which imo dampens the effect a bit.
Lastly there's the shoulder trim question that I see a lot online when it comes to Salamanders. Sometimes they're painted with golden trim, sometimes with green. You can go with whichever you like, I personally like giving only the veteran and high ranking units a golden trim, while standard troops stick with the green trim. Makes those other units stand out a bit more.
I just love timestamps! Thanks guys 🥰🥰
My way of painting bare Salamander faces is to prime with black, and then, dry brush with a dark grey. The nicely detailed GW faces work well with this.
Like this video format, please keep em coming.
please make more of these. so great
Amazing work love the new studio ❤
Great stuff. The new studio looks great and the quality of your videos keeps improving. 🎉
Love this idea! Would love to see this done with all chapters, including those who pledged their loyalty to the chaos gods
Lamenters would be awesome to see in this series!
Awesome video especially for Sally players like me.
I just finished my ~1000p of Salamanders and i used Tabards and Cloaks seen at around 9:34 for my Assault Terminators which also fit very well lore wise in terms of their thunder hammer weaponary.
I painted these extra bits in a dark red coulour like the cloaks of Agatone and He‘Stan and ist looks quite awesome i must say.
Just wanted to bring some more inspiration to everyone who chose to pick „the nice guys“ of 40k.
Vulkan lives!
I love it how he tried to pronounce his Patreon supporter "Verbuggter Herr der Dunkelheit" right. The three german words: close to perfect. The one english word: Waaaayy off! :D
Loved the video, I am really happy for the series!
I really want to see this for the Space Wolves. Awesome vid!
I love the new ideea, please do this series with each one of the chapters, successors.
The forgeworld upgrades looks nice too, basically for all chapters that were legions originally, btw love to see a pretty kitbashed ultramarine too one day(if you remember who I am, I’m the guy at Warhammer fest that was making the full chapter of Smurfs)
