THE RED DREAD

- The follow up video to "DREAD FALL" - follow our friend as they journey into enemy territory, making all sorts of friends along the way. Learn what it is they are up against, and the ramifications of failure within this mysterious hive-city.
This took way longer than I anticipated, some shots took a day, whilst others took months. But mostly it took time as I was working in-between work so I could pay for my debilitating coffee addiction.
I would love to make one more video to wrap up this little adventure, a final showdown if you will!
If you are so interested in seeing said future video, please support me by signing up for my Patreon, or sharing and commenting on the video, checking my Instagram for updates, and all the other things people say at this part of the text.

That was absolutely phenomenal. The enemy soldiers, the Hive, the way the shield blocked the missile, the crazy monster. All of it was just fantastic!
Makes me curious about how the lore keeps saying Void Shields don't deflect things, but open portals to The Warp to absorb the damage.
This would change so many things about how weapons interact with them! You could fire the most obscenely powerful weapon in the galaxy, but if the impact point is small and brief even nuclear weapons would take but an instant of portal opening to swallow whole, and detonate uselessly in The Warp while taxing the shield no more than a mundane projectile of equal size would.
Presumably weapons have since been engineered with this effect now, and the missile might detect the void shield opening such a portal and then trigger immediately so that the shield is forced to absorb the entire explosion measuring hundreds of meters for dozens of seconds and not just a split second of a five meter portal.
Impactors like Tau Railguns would be the most impacted by this as their projectiles are tiny and their velocity great, barely reuiring a tenth of a second and a portal the size of your hand. Maybe large railguns meant for anti-voidshield work have some kind of trigger inside that shatters the projectile like a shotgun blast shortly before impact when it detects the void shield, to force it to expend more energy over a wider area?
@@Hust91 Void shields redirect the impact into the warp but it can only transfer so much at once.
The tau railguns that are used against titans are normally installed on their space ships. It´s an obscene level of firepower that has to be brought to bear in order to breach through a void shield in one go. Most common strategy is to maintain pressure via rapidfire forcing the void shield generator to overload. Tau can breach a void shield but if the void shields are layered (aka multiple shields)... yeah that´s when they are in deep sh*t
@@Psychoangel-d23 What does it mean to redirect "the impact"?
If they're opening portals to the warp, then it seems the limitation would be how big a portal, and how long it's open, not how much goes through it.
A railgun shell traveling right below the speed of light would still only require a miniscule portal for a miniscule amount of time (not counting atmosphere effects), requiring less power from the void shield than a shot from a Leman Russ.
And I think the Manta also has anti-titan railguns? You'd essentially need specialized railgun ammunition for penetrating void shields because while mc2 a *terrifying amount of E, it doesn't matter if it's all concentrated to hit a demon in another universe rather than what you were aiming for.
Essentially, a lore-accurate void shield would be very, very different from the classical depictions of energy shields because small and fast projectiles would be very ineffective against it.
Was kinda cool. But really a Hive city is like every nation on modern Earth piled on top of eachother. Even if you have amazing void shields, you would expect a hurricane of AA missiles, flak artillery, air superiority fighters and ground air defenses fending off a singular attacker like that. Probably intercepting it an entire continent distant before it came close.
@@Hust91the generator that controls the opening and closing of the portals can be overloaded by forcing it to open and close multiple portals in quick succession, which leads to it shorting out.
The Tau do this by using massive airburst fragmentation cannons that can fire rapidly, forcing the shield to account for every small fragment of projectile. The Tau also use Plasma Accelerators and Plasma Burst Cannons that do the same thing, except instead of hundreds of fragmented pieces of shells, you're instead getting hit with hyper-condensed balls of plasma that then explode outward with stupid levels of concussive force, which covers a wide area of the shield and forces it to go into overdrive to redirect all of the energy.
Eventually it just overloads and fizzles out. Usually takes 2 or 3 Barrages of these weapons. The Tau can take out Void shields alarmingly quickly, as the Imperium found out during their last encounter with the Tau.
fan animations will never stop blowing me away with how good they are, literal AAA quality
Better then triple a have you seen tgat garbage
No hate to the animator, but you are smoking crack
Fan quality is better than triple A quality
@@Robert-wy4ry AAA rating and what we call "aaa" developers are different
@@revlouder5865 yeah fan work can definitely be better in a lot of cases. They have more creativity and put their heart and soul into it while triple AAA just wants a quick product to sell even if it’s the same crap for the 10th time buggy,incomplete or not.
R.I.P. to the Box Boi.
After hearing of his retirement this week, this was great to see. c:
Who’s the box boi?
There’s still the venerable kit AND Ironclad tho.
@@tiberiumnp8030 Let's be real, they're on borrowed time. It's abundantly clear that GW intends to gradually phase out all the old kits.
@@armata_strigoi_0 idk they also kept the old landspeeder, rhino and tactical squad
May his ventures be splendid!
Warhammer nerds are the best animators there is. They single handedly can make astonishing animations like this. Astartes then Dreadfall
i have to disagree while great the best? not likely
No other fan base besides maybe star wars puts this much love into non profit art projects
@Flare they lack gore due to ratings
@@SrAntonio301 I disagree
@redmafiapanda509 except they literally do, and did. And the moment GW took away their ability to do so unless it was on their paid platform, we saw a significant drop in fan made content. It's not a hard correlation to see.
1:20 I can’t articulate how kickass this whole video was. Better animation than most of the official stuff. I can also see how much you’ve refined your talents since DREADFALL with this clip
Mostly because GW cares more about the money than the passion.
Yeah that so epic, especially this one 1:24 so cool
❤ I was thinking the same this the exact scene you tagged made me jaw drop. Wish this was a movie 😅2hr of this yes plz
That purple creature is just such an amazing design. The movement, the color grade, the see through cover and the flowing tentacle. Perfection.
That was breathtaking. The scene with the camera going through the troopers almost felt 3d.
This is the single most impressive rendition of a hive city I've seen to date. It's been handcrafted to truly display the absurd scale of these megaliths. Your craftsmanship is worth the praise.
Those void shields can really withstand anything
exterminatus: let me introduce myself
@@Tampenismall heresy!!
I hate when enemies have void shield equivalents, it just makes any Siege or Assault take so much longer
**Laughs menacingly in Volkite Destructor**
I enjoyed the fact that the void shields looked nothing like I would have expected, but were clearly still void shields.
1:32 favorite part. Shows how resilient the human body can be, because even after getting stepped on by the Dread, there’s still a split second before the body gets fully crushed under the weight with the bones all cracking.
I would say its more so the armour he is wearing being resilient, and as soon as that gave way, he was squished like a crab after its shell cracks.
thats whats so horrifying about it he didnt went splat like in a cartoon he went crunch like a real animal being stepped on by multiple tons
Holy shit, I am blown away with how good this was. The nuke on the shield has to be the best explosion I've experienced on screen, the brutal shockwave is perfect.
And the animation of the Dreadnought and Demon... purpule thing is clean and effective.
Well done, I salute you.
Man - why you got to say all of those nice things? I'm blushing and looking pleased with myself now
@@MaxMurray3D Good, you should
I had a feeling that Hive city had a shield. The sound of the dreads cannon is just amazing. For all these years I never have thought of the claw spining. That man was spinned to pieces. You do a great job.
Hold the hell on, are the purple creatures and their constructs the Khrave? I know they take over humans psychically with ease and all their bodies and weapons are wreathed in warpfire. These guys seem to fit the bill!
I remember those from Lion El Johnson, Lord of The First. They are definitely one of the cooler scary xenos races
I'm wondering if slaaneshi demons?
+ Pink colours
+ Summoning
+ Seem to enchant people
+ Typical for human worlds to fall to chaos
- Not recognisable / known demon types
- Not enough depravity shown (yet)
@@TheRABIDdude it’s a misconception that all slaaneshi demons need to be depraved. She is also the god of excess, greed, pain, perfection - all of which could manifest without some sexual archetype.
@@rowser4472 agreed, Slaanesh is the answer to the question "what if X but too much"
@@TheRABIDdude Slaanesh Daemons have a very distinct look. This seems to be some kinda of warp inclined xenos species.
The guardsmen getting blended by the Dread claw and turned into a human smoothie is CRAZY
Looks amazing!!!
Hey Max! Dog with no bones here. This makes me happy and sad that the fans are always leaps and bounds ahead of their "AAA 'quality'" competition. You the man Max. Thank you for showing us your potential and we're all waiting, anxiously waiting, for your inevitable rise.
For the Emperor 🥹
For the Emperor
Tnx, I'm fine!))))
🤭☝️
If this was a full series... I'd definitely watch it!!
0:20 ah yes ambush at Disneyland
The least expected ambush location
😂
It’s Elon tusk
God, the way that Dreadnaught shoulders that enemy mech and just unloads into whilst throwing it to the ground gives me such Titanfall vibes, like when a Tone or an Ion just lays an enemy Titan out before absolutely pushing their s*** in and killing the target. Fantastic animation and I cannot wait for the next part.
Thanks man! I'm especially happy with that judo throw as well! - the next part is in development, but as with anything, life continually gets in the way - its why I wish I had some clones to get more done!
This is why we will miss the Boxnaughts
To true tre
Can still use them except for tourneys though
Miss them? Why? Is the Imperium scuppering the old models?
@@DinnerForkTongue its the chaos god GW that is scrapping models.
Congratulations! You just got hired! You will be contacted soon!
Jokes aside, if I DON'T see more future creations from you at this level, I will be both disappointed and surprised. Don't let your amazing talents go to waste! Keep up the amazing work
I shall continue to do so VoxMendax!
Henry Cavill need to see this
Looking SICK. Easily a successor to Astartes in terms of 40k fan animation quality!
It's got a long way to go but so far looking quite interesting
@@thechadcruzaider7864 we all aspire to something!
Not even close, my guy.
@@monbreau7306 Somebody needs to rewatch the first episode of Astartes. Let a team cook, these guys have potential. Don't you think that?
@@monbreau7306 its true Astartes is another level from a professional 3d artist with years of experience. I'm just some dumb fuck with blender :D
The Dreddie was super nice too. Great job! It looked very cool.
Some could say rad? But I shan't push my luck
more...just more. There needs to be more of this level of quality...and story. Please don't stop
The missile impacting the city’s shield caught me completely off guard
Thank you so much for animating a Hive city's shields getting hit. That was absolutely gorgeously made.
Even the sound was just perfect~♡
I dont know how many times I rewound the missile hitting the shield. the explosion, the delay to the sound. and the sheer BASS of it all
I like how you made the heretics more technologically advanced. They don't got admech limiting their innovation
The portal was the best rendition i have ever seen on energy collecting and forming a portal
Holy sh!t, man. Awestruck...
1 dreadnought to assault an entire hive city, I know he’s got extra battle brothers helping him later on but my main concern is if he’s got the ammo to last an assault that long
Idk man one dreadnought with orbital and air support kinda seems like overkill to me. XD
What would the dreadnought do if it ran into a tank company?
He could only punch them really.
ah you know how it is space marine's have exactly as much ammo as the plot needs, i mean you see and pockets or holsters for spare mags on any space marine ever?
My god. I need to share this far and wide. This is absolutely STUNNING!!! I can't WAIT for more!
Lore acurate dreadnought very nice
Lets see Paul Allens deadnaught
Not really but whatever.
AMAZING Mr. Cavell Please make our dreams come true!!
that is fucking dope
Thanks man. I'd love to keep continuing the little story I have planned, but having to pay for bills seems to take up all my time!
Hope to see more of your stuff soon Janovich!
that shock from the missile hitting the shield is amazing, so good sound design and layout. Also the dolly zoom vertigo moment was really good too!
100% fantastic the whole way through
My approval is immeasurable and my day has been improved
The demon is perfectly harrowing, dreadnought has beautiful movement, looks fully mobile and absolutely no clunkiness, this is absolutely amazing sir!! Finally someone gets it!!! Keep it up bro!!

I love how this captures the grandeur of the 40k universe by not resorting to using "familiar" enemies as an opposing force for the animation. Too often, a lot of animators and writers forget that it's a big galaxy and that the full scope of threats that exist in the setting are far from limited to the small number we see in the tabletop game. The enemies in this feel unique and inspired, and in a lot of ways evoke a similar "I wonder what *those* are?" to the enemy faction in the original Astartes animation. It's refreshing to see more than just the common enemy factions in one of these animations and I really appreciate it.
Great job, I really hope we get to see more!
I hope to do more as well! its just that making monies always seems to get in the way!
Amazing work! Loved every second of it.
woah! that shot where Red Dread took down that mech was insane!
My first thought when I saw the hive city was ...
"Charge the Lightning Field!"
... and then, you delivered!
Amazing!!!
Since you've blessed us with this fantastic upload.... you can't just possibly leave us without more future uploads can ya??.
More will be revealed! unless I am evicted... but I'm sure I'll be fine!
very fluid and crisp 👌
The Emperor sheds tears of joy, seeing your faithful work!
Les gooooooo!!!!
EDIT: Dude the Dready throwing hands with the other bot just made my day!
I was pretty happy with the judo throw myself (with assault cannon)
"Babe wake up! New Dreadnought animation just dropped!!"
In all seriousness, this is outstanding. Thank you for your effort.
Yo that was dope. I’ve read descriptions of how the Warp creatures can make people go mad and how they can almost hurt to look at; but I’ve never seen any depiction of one as genuinely otherworldly as that creature right at the end. This was incredible.
Best road trip story in a while.
YES, FINALLY AFTER WHAT SEEMED LIKE AN ETERNITY, MY FAV ANIMATOR UPLOADED ANOTHER DREADNOUGHT ANIMATION. LETS GO
IMHO, best "Dreadnaught vibe" video on today.
Thank you! 👍
The highest quality Warhammer 40k animation I've seen all year. You've outdone yourself, truly. What a love letter to Grimdark.
I feel seen. And slightly seduced? :)
The sound delay on the explosion was icing on the cake. Made you feel like you were there
Nice 👌
The improvement between RED's is seriously incredible.
So many months of waiting for this?..... I don't regret for a second that I waited so long, great job mate
Hollywood- & God-tier quality!! Truly glorious!
Thankyou kindly :)
@@MaxMurray3D You're welcoooome. Been watching your videos since "Dreadfall".
Superb. You got me with the missle attacking the hive. I thought a hivecity without voidshield as it activated xD
👏The lore and stories are sufficient to interest me in Warhammer 40k but...this definitely helps. By the dedication of their fandom shall ye know them; and Max Murray is one worshipful acolyte. Keep up the good buddy; I'm too damn cheap to financially support or subscribe but, praise is free and you've earned it. 👍
I'll take what I can padre :)
Amazing stuff dude. Look how far you’ve come with your skills and art! It’s been great to watch your journey, and exciting to wonder where it will take you next. Keep it up man, keep learning, keep working, you’ve got the stuff.
Thanks man - I love the source material, so its always been a pleasure working and developing and all of that jazz. Comments like yours make me feel like it was all worth worth it :)
I was captivated for the entire duration of this video, thank you for your hard work. It was truly a masterpiece to behold.
Very pretty. Hope you keep up your work, even if its not Warhammer related
Man - I've had a terrible day on the phone with my freelance agency saying theres no work this year. So this means so much more than you know! i hope to release some breakdowns of how I do models and creatures sometime - and works begun on the last "dread" video. But there is so much work that needs doing on that! Again man, thanks!
This is amazing! Since i first saw your work, so long ago, I've always been impressed by what you can create and once again you've surpassed yourself. You deserve great things off the back of this, keep up the good work! :)
Shucks man. You say all the nice werds
Очень мощно! С нетерпением ждём продолжения🔥
I've just discovered this, then went back and watched parts 1 and 2!! Wow!!! Love this!!
What!? Why!? How!? I have so many questions around this animation. It was phenomenal. I haven’t seen something this good since Astartes.
Astartes was better.
@@monbreau7306 "this ladies and gentlemen is a douchebag, everyone point and laugh"
@@Piemasta9000 He speaks facts
@@monbreau7306 I said since Astartes. Or are you just being negative for it's own sake?
Wow. This is amazing.This grabs my attention and imagination. GW is caught up with the Primarchs, and telling the stories of "main characters", forgetting the setting is great for dreaming up new, unknown adversaries. Vashtor is a step in a good direction, tho, and the Lion looks great. That warp plasma guy is amazing.
Yes. Absolutely. This I love. Quality animation and intriguing antagonists. Are these some unknown breed of xenos? They don't feel like demons, are these humans cultists? Again, not a culty vibe. I am intrigued and interested to see more.
Humans cut off from the imperium are susceptible to all sorts of influence - and sometimes in their desperation they find help in something potentially worse, but also something which can help defend from the other xenos threats
I love the little detail that we can see the explosion and the rippling shield before we hear the sound and feel the shockwave
Everybody is better at making Warhammer content than the people whose job it is to make Warhammer content and I love it. Good stuff.

I am so impressed how you took the slightly goofy design of a dreadnaught and made it look military-viable. In this and the other Dread vids
Oh you!
We really need a Dreadnought video game. This guy should lead the production on it.
Why hasn't a studio jumped on the bandwagon with something like this yet? It was absolutely outstanding! It's the first time I've ever really seen anything that I thought gave a real sense of the power of a Dreadnought.
Holding out for a feature film of this quality
I'd love a film like this. But yv/film executives would look at a box-boi killing machine and say it's not relatable enough. But you could totally weave a great tale of an ancient marine who was once human who ended up in this walking coffin of death - show his development in flashbacks, his fall, his internment, his reactions etc. As well as just neutralising the enemy :D
Will you please finish this before AI does? Jesus. I’ll f-ing pay you. And I’m poor as hell. Your work has been second only to the astartes project guy. Which Is above anything GW has released in film, so. Dude. Guy. Please. Before the terminators rise. Please finish this? Please?
@@Donnies_lil_ding_ding I have alot of work done on the project currently! But life always seems to get in the way... mostly work. And I don't want to release a subpar video - so won't be rushing!
But alas, everything takes forever!

@@MaxMurray3D I’m no stranger to life getting in the way. Sorry for my tone earlier. Thank you VERY much for what you’ve done so far. I truly hope you get the recognition you deserve for what you’ve done with this series even if you’ve only been able to get a small amount done. It’s light years beyond what most animators and story tellers employed by GW have given us, and don’t ever think your passion hasn’t been noticed. I swear as soon as next payday hits, I’ve got you a super thanks inbound. You’ve earned at LEAST that much. Please keep creating. You’re kick ass, and that’s a shame of a thing to give up on.

That monster is the closest thing to 'wrong' I've seen from any Warhammer animation yet. Absolute masterclass job on it. The rest is amazing too!
I had to search through the comments to realize it’s a fan made animation.
Mind blowing!
Excellent. I always loved the old Castraferrum pattern dreadnoughts. Back in the 90's when i played 40k, duels between these and my Screamer-Killers were legendary.
That autocannon sounded brutal, really great.
Stunning. As perfect in every single minute way imaginable. Effing bravo and thank you.
The assault cannon sounds exactly how I would expect it to.
Sick!

That was AMAZING!
Great Job!
I can’t wait to see you do more!!!!
Fantastic. So glad to have this pop up in my recommendations.
The kinetic pace of the action is so satisfying. Great sound design pulls it together. That missile on shield...so good.
Awesome!
It is greatest Movie!
I always knew it :)
This quality is phenomenal! I love how cool this is and how well it fits right into lore. Keep ‘em coming!
These shorts have more feeling than anything gw releases.
0:44 OKAY, the SOUND DESIGN on that missile hitting the shields............CHEFS KISS*
Spectacular. Love everything about it. The delayed sound of the blast was a great touch. Watching the guy get smashed into the wall with the blender treatment for good measure was gloriously gratuitous. The xenos thing is a work of art. Wonderful. More, please!
More will come
Wow wtf. Why is it so good ? I just want more. I didnt expect such a level of quality. Im blown away
Your work honours the very holy Throne of Terra.
OMG this is absolutely amazing!
Best thing I've seen in a couple of months!
Well done!
Epic , I hope to see more , it was superb it’s crazy the taker in the 40k space this was better than all the things on warhammer + . Great job.
This is probably the best fan animation I've seen since the Astartes project.
This series has been incredible. I cant imagine how many hours this took. Really awe inspiring stuff
That was awesome!
The Milky Way in 40k is a big place. I love how adventurous you were with what it was the Marines were sent to eliminate.
