I agree. I couldn't help but just have pure admiration for the conscious kindness to a complete stranger who shared a hobby. We need more people in our friends groups like Brent. Real upstanding dude who we can all honestly look to for compassion. I think it does so much more for us to be kind and to see Brent express this as a hallmark of the video is seriously cool. He didn't have to, but he did, and that makes all the difference. I'm a new fan to this channel, but I'm definitely here to stay. I can tell it is full of positive energy and I need more of that right now.
This whole video was great, but two things stood out. The tribute to a fallen fellow miniature painter, and you getting excited about 1,000 subs. I'm so glad to see that you now have over 140k. You deserve many more!
As we speak, I'm planning a 5 man team of winterized Skitarii, to go with my first army of Mars red ones. Army cohesion can get buggered, I just think it'll be pretty.
@@GoobertownHobbies since you are a chemist, could you please tell us what to buy in countries without 'LA's totally awesome'?Which kind of product should we search for? Is a degreaser some kind of oven-cleaner? Which ingredients should we look for in a liquid if we try to find something to put into our ultrasound machines?
@@theswampus670 I think of him not as uptight, but just liking the fact that his personal squad (retinue) is in his colors. Plus, they can't really run away and hide in another unit dressed like that, can they?
Dress up montage! He’s got a couple servitor skulls outside the changing room that shake their heads at his outfits until he comes out in the final one and they nod
I like the mental image that he has a space on his ship that has several copies of the exact same outfit, just in different colors so he can always “blend in” despite having a giant hat and a big glowing sword. But nobody wants to tell him he doesn’t blend in at all
Inspiring. I have the same relationship with a few of my models as they were originally owned by a chap who sadly passed away and his sister was selling them at a big "bring and buy". Bless her she didnt know what anything was worth, so of course you had the vultures circling her stall before long. In the end I stepped in and helped her get a grasp of what was what. By all means the models were still extremely cheap but it just left a bitter taste in my mouth that a few tight scavengers were scamming her. In the end I bought a load of stuff (at a good price for me and her). To this day I'm still finding bits and Bob's from the guys collection. It makes me think what will happen to my guys when I'm gone. I hope they all just go to nephews lol. I just try to make the models look as good as I can in memory of the original owner. I just love these type of videos that raise issues like this.
In the end, we just hope they go to a good home and somebody gets a few more of them painted ;-) I definitely got Chris' collection for cheap, but I'm resolved to honor them!
What you said about and to the previous owner of the miniature was really touching, Brent. Made me well up a bit. Even though we're just talking about silly plastic(and metal) miniatures, it's genuinely heartwarming to hear stuff like that and remember that there's a story behind every miniature, and a person behind that story. Keep up the wholesome videos. :)
Can you imagine Gerald getting the power sword? “Servant.” “Yes Sir?” “Make my Power Sword my personal colors.” “Sir?” “Did I stutter servant?” “Sir-with all respect-I cannot change the color of your sword.” “Well what is the reason?” “We have no understanding of this xenos crystal, we could destroy it.” “MAKE MY SWORD GREEN!” “I CAN’T!” “TO THE BRIG WITH YOU!”
correction. he stabs the poor servant. and then falls in love with the color the blood on the sword makes when back-lit by the glow of the sword. he then proceeds to start stabbing someone every few seconds because the blood keeps boiling off the sword. poor Gerald has fallen to chaos. all because of his love of color.
"Dude Gerald is gonna get us killed!" "No he's not." "How ya figure?" ".....would YOU fight him?" "......ok...back to marching." *canned laugher and clapping"
“Greetings, guardsmen. I am Brother Sergeant Bran Wulfram, Tactical Intercessor within the 3rd Company Ghost-Stalkers, 8th Squadron of the Raven Guard chapter. I have been briefed by my Chapter Master Kayvaan Shrike on a mission concerning your commanding officer, Gerald Weeks. Have you any information regarding his current whereabouts? It is extremely urgent that I speak to him.”
So very happy the way you gave a kind of tribute to the previous owner of the model. Very touching and honorable of you. Congrats on 100k! May your paint pots never run dry.
My co-workers husband passed away years ago. One day I told her about my hobby and she said her husband used to be into the hobby as well. The next time we were working together she brought me a box of his old paints and his airbrush and compressor. She said it brought her so much joy knowing his hobby stuff could be of use to someone else.
Congrats on 100k! You are definitely my favourite artist on TH-cam, and I love your blend of wisdom, skill and wholesomeness. May your paint pots never run dry, friend.
0:45 "I've got a lot of unpainted stuff, huh?" Well, clearly you're a real mini painter. As Abraham Lincoln once said "you're not a real mini painter unless you have your own body weight in unpainted minis"
small critique, the flame coloring is backwars. the brightest colors are in the bulk of the flame towards the base. thats how fire works. its brighter near the source and darkens as carbon and other elements burning off mix into the air. yellow should be the base color mixing into orange and then red near the tip.
I just love watching your videos. You're like the Bob Ross of mini painting. No hurry, low key and with that calm voice. I paint while listening/watching and get inspired. Thanks!
Congratulations on 100k!!! Thank you very much for putting a smile on my face with every single one of your Videos. Your positive Attitude really affected me, not just in getting into the Hobby but in Life in general.
I love that funny little backstory, imagine if These cadian shock troops knew eachother for a very long time, so when this crazy inquisitor leads them to all kinds of crazy mission, shenanquins ensue, everyone is just messing around but making proggress.
Grats on the 100.000 subscribers. What a funny moment with the cats and the surprise from above! Stay as you are, this channel is so refreshing! Thanks for sharing.
@@81DaddyMac Nobody cares about your super-creep alarm. :) Any uneasy feelings you get watching this probably has more to do with your own self than it does him.
Fantastic story, awesome minis! I am really inspired by your skin tones too! They are really well done! I'm really thankful that you did this project, and I'm so glad you have so many subscribers! Your care and attention to detail being so much to our community. Thank you Brent. I love you too!
Your videos are always such a comforting, enjoyable and passionate ride. Watching them is like you lift the viewer up into a pillowy cloud of biscuits that is your content and smother us in the warm butter that is your voice. Then the cat fiesta, I just about lost it lmao. Please keep doing what you love. Please keep the stories driving the project. Please keep the uplifting vibe. Thank you for your hard work !!!!
How do you always manige to make me smile in the cutest ways, that dance plus expression is pure joy, congrat's on getting a 100k you deserve it and im looking forward to see what you do next
Congratulations on hitting that 100k “score”! It was your “fundamentals” video that got me into miniature painting hobby! I do really enjoy your content, it makes me feel the whole community to be way more soulful than usual (sadly it is not always the state of affairs outside the Goober town). Thank you, King Goober!
I'm so glad you said about enjoying the smell of the old paints! I have a few old hexagonal pots myself, and I find the smell of them is great for nostalgia and actually getting me in the mood to paint.
Perfect video for my birthday today, since I think I'll be working on my setting up my painting area at our new house and maybe even getting a few miniatures painted. Thanks again for the videos. Keep them coming.
Great presentation and clarity when presenting thoughts. I haven't painted any minis myself for a decade but really enjoy watching your approach and listening to your reflective and honest thoughts. Thank you for your effort and for sharing.
It's absolutely not weird to say you love the smell of the old paints! When I got back into the hobby and smelt those old paints again it brought back so much nostalgia
I just have to say I love watching your channel. I play dnd and have been painting since the 80's. But it's been only the past couple years that I've stepped my game up by watching various channels like yours. I am also a terrain maker and I have a system when I make terrain which I call doodling. I take various pieces of bits I've collected and just play around with them and see what I come up with. It is so relaxing to do that even though I have many terrain and painting projects to do. They can get done later, I am enjoying myself now. Thanks for reinforcing that.
...I am so curious about what you're saying to the camera in that timelapse... Totally agree with your choice on that inquisitor, I had that model years ago, it's a joy to paint. And as ever, you're a joy to listen to!
It is much more fun to paint a mini when it has a story. When I am painting characters, I always invent something for them. It makes the color choice and base style much easier to figure out. Congratulations for the 100k!
Congratulations on your milestone! Your recent videos about painting what inspires me instead of what I have to has got me painting more than I have in the last year. I'm painting a beholder now that I have been putting off for years. It's turning out great and his name is Goober as a tribute to you!
You have been such a big inspiration for me returning to the warhammer hobby after a 15 break. Keep up the great work! My was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, and with the social distancing restrictions we are unable to hold a more traditional benefit for her. So I am going to hold a paint-a-thon style event hosted by our local hobby shop. The entire event was inspired by you last 24hr challenge. Thank you again for the work you do!
I virtually never comment on vids but I’ve recently discovered your channel and it’s just absolute joy. I could listen to you talk for hours. ☺️ Also... that sword is badass!!!
Thanks for the video, I am new to mini painting and it is always great to learn new information and it is definitely preferable to learn from someone as pleasant as yourself. My son (Thor, 9 months) really enjoys your smooth narration at afternoon nap time.
I recently got into watching your channel and been all over the place on watching. I love when you are giving the backstories, and have started to do it myself.
New subscriber and newly back into the hobby for the first time since being a teenager (now pushing 30!) and I just have to say that I love this format for videos. Just pick one mini which takes your fancy that day and paint it up while talking us through your process and whatever else you're thinking about. Painting by vibes. Would love more of these types of videos.
Love this video. It was so nice of you to dedicate it to Chris Price, the chap who previously owned this mini but wasn’t able to paint it. Well done and I like to think he is looking down and smiling approvingly at the great job you did.
I bet Chris would be happy seeing the witch hunters next to each other in your video. I know it made me happy to hear how grateful you were to have them.
me: i want to have no backlog at all meanwhile Goobertown hobbies: doomsday prepers gonna feel sorry when they run out of minis and they all will come to me
I love how you changed paint schemes during the process! And the thought that High Inquisitor Gerald has a giant furred ginger warbeast at his (heh) beck and call... And also glad to see when you hit 100K (60K better than 40K)!
I liked the video before I watched it because I've been watching you long enough to know every video is as good or better then the last. Love you brent, my friday just got so much more relaxing. Edit: Congratulations for 100k!!!
A lot of people would have just painted the whole squad the same (probably white) skin color. But not only is the diversity nice to see. The diversity is literally nicer to see. It instantly makes it feel like a squad of real people rather than faceless clones.
@@GoobertownHobbies Remember that time Grnfn'rr got reprimanded for wearing blueface, and it's so funny because his optical cutoff is at 563nm? These issues are tricky to negotiate, especially when our subjects are probably themselves socially unacceptable, but then again, diversity is fun to paint!
The inquisitions best kept secret is how 'Cadia Blackface Matters' was the actual cause for Cadia to explode. They were a group of insurgents of Choas, hellbent on destabilizing the planet. Not even the voice of reason could reach them... Initially the Inquisition was soft on them, let them set up RAPE and MURDER zones, or 'Cadia Autonomous Zones', but things got out of hand and thats what ended Cadia.
@@stephenspackman5573 I'm sure the WH universe would be so much fun when all the grim dark themes are simplified to Disney stories, where no one really ever dies. And of course no more dark elves/ Eldar taking slaves, and everyone wearing facemasks to prevent Nurgle19, where Grots are an Orcs best friend while singing songs of Whaag lives matter. Ugh.
Please continue to paint up the adventures of "Gerald goes forth" aka Blackadder in the 41st millennium. Perhaps they go down that hatch and find a colony of Croc-mutants... Or gnomes! Such a great tip - paint for fun. Sometimes we forget we're meant to be enjoying the hobby! And congrats on 100k - well deserved!
At first glance I thought the mini from the thumbnail was as the classic witch hunter one at the end! I need it for my Mordheim Witch Hunters. Nice classic rare mini
I love watching you're videos! I watch your videos when I need inspiration or guidance on some of the minis I'm looking to paint. Thank you so much for your dedication to making quality content!
7:40 same. I'm so happy my Dark Angel Green is still usable (albeit very diluted), it was one of the first colours I've ever gotten and still using it to paint my new, better models give me a sense of continuity
Oh man, congrats on the big 100k I'm happy to see you grow this much and also see how much celebration you gave it, never seen anyone do confetti to celebrate
Gerold was a good sport and kind of a fashion hound. I bet those guardsmen enjoyed their time with him. I think I have him in one of my piles of “reinforcements “ ! Fun video
God I love watching you, I can not afford this hobby anymore which breaks my heart. But it fills me with you to see you put so much heart into your minis. I feel a bit weird about being a huge Warhammer Nerd without a single Mini but at least I can enjoy watching you.
I recently stumbled across your channel, and I just want to thank you for the awesome content, and the relaxed air and good vibes you bring with it. Congrats on the deserved 100K, here's to many more.
I'm saving this video for later today. I plan to cook and/or do the dishes while watching Brent paint his perfect mini. I'm sure I'll enjoy it because Brent rocks!
I loved that you made story and even a set pictures with objective markers (also I own the same model and I've been putting off painting it because it so cool). Really made my day! Thank you!
Gerald looks amazing and I pray for the safety of those troopers as they hunt the forest for whatever baddies may reside in there. Congrats 100k Brent! Been here since about 70k. I'll see you at 200k my dude
I feel happy for your accomplishment, Im not into minis hobbie or anything but I enjoy watching people doing and talking about stuff they like, and you sure enjoy your hobbie
Found these videos by accident. Took me back 20 years to when I painted minis. I went and got a new set. Very rusty but great enjoyment. Thanks for these awesome videos.
Thank you for this watched it on my lunch and made me chuckle go go Gerald!!!. Thank you for the day brightener!!!! Plus cool as hell mini and paint job!!
Dude, your scaring your cats while joyfully throwing confetti, totally made my day. I laughed out loud and scared my own cats 😉 Congratulations on 100k subscribers, may you reach 100k more. Thank you for taking the time to produce kind, intelligent and thoughtful content. I’ve never painted a mini in my life, nor have I participated in gaming of any kind, but I watch your videos as I would listen to a friend eagerly describing something they love. My subscription is to the spirit of your channel and the personality you bring. Thank you for being you and keep doing what you do.
It was actually really touching, the way you spoke of Chris, a man you never even met.
Is Baldrick a reference to BLackadder’s servant? I always have one unit called Darling’s darlings. For captain darling from blackadder goes forth

I cannot overstate how important it is to stop every once in a while and paint for fun.
Agreed!!

Brent, you by far are the best miniature youtuber ever. Your positivity and pure joy is the absolute pinnacle of the hobby. Thank you for your videos.
I like the idea Gerald changed his gear - solely because of how many times you repainted his colours.
yeah, but it's also pretty funny to think that you have this super uptight officer how can't stand the sight of anything but olive green and brown.

2:15 I'm not crying. You're crying.
Inspiring. I have the same relationship with a few of my models as they were originally owned by a chap who sadly passed away and his sister was selling them at a big "bring and buy". Bless her she didnt know what anything was worth, so of course you had the vultures circling her stall before long. In the end I stepped in and helped her get a grasp of what was what. By all means the models were still extremely cheap but it just left a bitter taste in my mouth that a few tight scavengers were scamming her. In the end I bought a load of stuff (at a good price for me and her). To this day I'm still finding bits and Bob's from the guys collection. It makes me think what will happen to my guys when I'm gone. I hope they all just go to nephews lol. I just try to make the models look as good as I can in memory of the original owner. I just love these type of videos that raise issues like this.
In the end, we just hope they go to a good home and somebody gets a few more of them painted ;-) I definitely got Chris' collection for cheap, but I'm resolved to honor them!
Better than finding bits of Bob in your collection, I'm sure! ;) GJ dude
I really like the energy you show during the celebration but then you are just speaking normally

I feel bad for stripping a few of his old minis- gotta preserve a few too! ;-)
Can you imagine Gerald getting the power sword?
“Servant.”
“Yes Sir?”
“Make my Power Sword my personal colors.”
“Sir?”
“Did I stutter servant?”
“Sir-with all respect-I cannot change the color of your sword.”
“Well what is the reason?”
“We have no understanding of this xenos crystal, we could destroy it.”
“MAKE MY SWORD GREEN!”
“I CAN’T!”
“TO THE BRIG WITH YOU!”
correction. he stabs the poor servant. and then falls in love with the color the blood on the sword makes when back-lit by the glow of the sword. he then proceeds to start stabbing someone every few seconds because the blood keeps boiling off the sword. poor Gerald has fallen to chaos. all because of his love of color.
Dammit, Brent! Now I NEED to see the entire series of The Holy Chronicles of Gerald. Thanks a lot...
You can start reading The All Guardsman Party. It’s pretty much exactly this.

Brent, you just seem like an all-around good dude. Love the channel and what you are doing. Thanks.
I enjoyed how painting one turned into a handful. Congrats on 100k 🍾 🥳
I bet Chris would be happy seeing the witch hunters next to each other in your video. I know it made me happy to hear how grateful you were to have them.
me: i want to have no backlog at all
meanwhile Goobertown hobbies: doomsday prepers gonna feel sorry when they run out of minis and they all will come to me
Absolutely loved this video! It was really inspiring to see you create a cool backstory for this character
I really enjoyed this mini series. And congrats on reaching the 100k mark! I've enjoyed your content these last couple of months.
I love how you changed paint schemes during the process!
And the thought that High Inquisitor Gerald has a giant furred ginger warbeast at his (heh) beck and call...
And also glad to see when you hit 100K (60K better than 40K)!
Thanks for the hobbyist content! Please keep it up! Love it! Thank you, I spend the week between episodes waiting for your new post.
:-) I've gotta paint faster!!!
@@GoobertownHobbies I'm happy, you have a day job! Don't feel pressured!
YAAAY! Congrats on 100k! Wonderful job Brent and the mini turned awesome! I love the story behind it.
Thanks Brent!
@@GoobertownHobbies I am really happy to be a part of the Goobertown Hobbies citizenship!
I was not expecting to start this video with tears in my eyes. Touching.
I liked the video before I watched it because I've been watching you long enough to know every video is as good or better then the last. Love you brent, my friday just got so much more relaxing. Edit: Congratulations for 100k!!!
A lot of people would have just painted the whole squad the same (probably white) skin color. But not only is the diversity nice to see. The diversity is literally nicer to see. It instantly makes it feel like a squad of real people rather than faceless clones.
Yeah the picture of the squad I painted in high school was really glaring with all of the 'elf-skin' faces
I noticed the same thing and wanted to chime in and say I also appreciated the variety of skin tones. 😊
@@GoobertownHobbies Remember that time Grnfn'rr got reprimanded for wearing blueface, and it's so funny because his optical cutoff is at 563nm?
These issues are tricky to negotiate, especially when our subjects are probably themselves socially unacceptable, but then again, diversity is fun to paint!
The inquisitions best kept secret is how 'Cadia Blackface Matters' was the actual cause for Cadia to explode. They were a group of insurgents of Choas, hellbent on destabilizing the planet. Not even the voice of reason could reach them... Initially the Inquisition was soft on them, let them set up RAPE and MURDER zones, or 'Cadia Autonomous Zones', but things got out of hand and thats what ended Cadia.
@@stephenspackman5573 I'm sure the WH universe would be so much fun when all the grim dark themes are simplified to Disney stories, where no one really ever dies. And of course no more dark elves/ Eldar taking slaves, and everyone wearing facemasks to prevent Nurgle19, where Grots are an Orcs best friend while singing songs of Whaag lives matter. Ugh.
Please continue to paint up the adventures of "Gerald goes forth" aka Blackadder in the 41st millennium. Perhaps they go down that hatch and find a colony of Croc-mutants... Or gnomes! Such a great tip - paint for fun. Sometimes we forget we're meant to be enjoying the hobby! And congrats on 100k - well deserved!
This project sounds like so much fun, it's definitely on 'the list' :-)
There is nothing like some Goober in the morning
Congrats on the 100k, man! So glad your channel has had such great growth. I really enjoy both your content and demeanor in presenting it.
At first glance I thought the mini from the thumbnail was as the classic witch hunter one at the end! I need it for my Mordheim Witch Hunters. Nice classic rare mini
I love watching you're videos! I watch your videos when I need inspiration or guidance on some of the minis I'm looking to paint. Thank you so much for your dedication to making quality content!
Love you too Brent! Please keep makin these crazy cat videos :)
You are such a good soul .... I can’t help but end your vids feeling honoured to have had the experience ... sooo proud to know I’m one of the 100K
7:40 same. I'm so happy my Dark Angel Green is still usable (albeit very diluted), it was one of the first colours I've ever gotten and still using it to paint my new, better models give me a sense of continuity
Nice! My dark angels dried up on me, but I glued my 'polarity reference' magnet to that bottle so I still have a use for it.
Oh man, congrats on the big 100k I'm happy to see you grow this much and also see how much celebration you gave it, never seen anyone do confetti to celebrate
Thanks!!! Cats hate confetti- live and learn ;-)
Gerold was a good sport and kind of a fashion hound. I bet those guardsmen enjoyed their time with him. I think I have him in one of my piles of “reinforcements “ ! Fun video
God I love watching you, I can not afford this hobby anymore which breaks my heart. But it fills me with you to see you put so much heart into your minis. I feel a bit weird about being a huge Warhammer Nerd without a single Mini but at least I can enjoy watching you.
I recently stumbled across your channel, and I just want to thank you for the awesome content, and the relaxed air and good vibes you bring with it. Congrats on the deserved 100K, here's to many more.
I'm saving this video for later today. I plan to cook and/or do the dishes while watching Brent paint his perfect mini. I'm sure I'll enjoy it because Brent rocks!
Now I've watched it, and it was very fun indeed. Now I want that Witchhunter mini :(
Congrats on reaching 100k!! I do love that miniature and Gerald came out great! I may have to root around my collection for something that grabs me
I loved that you made story and even a set pictures with objective markers (also I own the same model and I've been putting off painting it because it so cool). Really made my day! Thank you!
Yesss another video from Brent!
Thanks man ^^
The smell of the old citadel pots are pure hobby love 😍
Gerald looks amazing and I pray for the safety of those troopers as they hunt the forest for whatever baddies may reside in there. Congrats 100k Brent! Been here since about 70k. I'll see you at 200k my dude
I feel happy for your accomplishment, Im not into minis hobbie or anything but I enjoy watching people doing and talking about stuff they like, and you sure enjoy your hobbie
Found these videos by accident. Took me back 20 years to when I painted minis. I went and got a new set. Very rusty but great enjoyment. Thanks for these awesome videos.
Thank you for this watched it on my lunch and made me chuckle go go Gerald!!!. Thank you for the day brightener!!!! Plus cool as hell mini and paint job!!
Awesome! It was quite enjoyable watching this group of characters come together.
This was such fun! I love the story you made... both of them! You're the best, Brent!
Dude, your scaring your cats while joyfully throwing confetti, totally made my day. I laughed out loud and scared my own cats 😉 Congratulations on 100k subscribers, may you reach 100k more. Thank you for taking the time to produce kind, intelligent and thoughtful content. I’ve never painted a mini in my life, nor have I participated in gaming of any kind, but I watch your videos as I would listen to a friend eagerly describing something they love. My subscription is to the spirit of your channel and the personality you bring. Thank you for being you and keep doing what you do.
