Hey guys! I'm away this week so there'll be no Twitch streams, Middle Earth Monday will be back again next week too, I promise! There is a 12 hour Twitch stream coming up on the 9th of September though so mark your calendars!
Cool paint job as usual Andy 👍🏻 I vote for the Stormblade to be painted next. I’ve painted one before and it took ages - I can’t wait to see what you do with yours 👍🏻
ABSOLUTELY would I like to see these FW tanks in games. They're rare enough in videos but especially once they go to legends they tend to be forgotten about completely in battle reports. I think they'd fit in really well for your more narrative focussed batreps, plus it's just cool seeing more krieg stuff painted up. That thunderer looks lovely! I have 2 but had a feeling they'd be going to legends eventually so modelled pintle heavy bolters, so that they can at least be proxied as demolishers with a hull heavy bolter.
loved it mate, I have just got back into the hobby after a long time out. My 8 year old son gave me the push to get back into it, when he discovered my old minatures's from back in the early 90's, which he loves. Seeing the passion and skill that you and others have is a true inspiration.
For the weathering powders, if you can use white spirit to fix them, not brushing over them, just touching the surface with a wet brush a letting the capilary action work. This way, the powders keep the dusty look and they fall off much less. Also rubbing alcohol works, but is less durrable.
Any armor you do would be great. The model looks fantastic and I like the weathering! It looks dirty without looking in need of an overhaul. Thanks for sharing this tutorial.
This was a cool video, I like that it was more of a "I want to do this" rather than "I need to do this" kind of video I feel like having a side project during projects is fun be it painting a mini while assembling others or assembling a new mini while doing some batch painting. Great video as always Andy I can't wait to see the next tank
Great stuff as usual. For tracks I just like doing primer black and heavy drybrush with metal color. Then can do dirty effects later and highlights as I need. Super fast and for me looks good.
With pigments try the ballast or binders. They do leave the pigments looking different. I can see the Stug, but I mostly see the WW1 stuff in the tanks.
Really cool to see you working on these, the twin barrelled super heavy is the one I like most would certainly like to see that one done next, just can’t remember it’s name doh! I want to say vanquisher but I don’t think that’s right. Looking forward to the 12 hour stream too.
Not judging your weathering by the way. I am glad it makes you happy since that's the whole idea. I just stop watching at that point in the video but let it play through to the end so you get credit. FYI I just bought a thunderer off ebay inspired by this video. I too am a Krieg buff.
@@MediocreHobbies So Light Grey , The Fang, Seraphim Sephia, then the fang again? Also when you stipple do you wipe any of the paint off before applying?
@@MediocreHobbies true, but then it became a jagdpanzer instead of a STuG. But yes, the type of gun on the chassis kind of decides what it became. Still, good video, tone it down on the powder (see what i did there?) 🤣

Ye it’s a fan favourite for sure I even have a very rare upgrade pack for it.
Would be great to see that army in full in a battle report
That would be a big battle report.

Clever boy getting them ready for after legends.

So happy to hear your back pal. And being able to do it with the lad is the dream.
@@MediocreHobbies You are not wrong there mate, thank you
I love painting guard tanks, so much fun
Me to. There so much fun and you can have so much variety.

Oh might try that, cheers man!

Glad you liked it pal. So happy to have it done.
Lol! Love the idea of prayers on the dozer blade: sort of "here, read this while we bury your heretical hide!"
Hahahahaha yes
06:00 I fully agree, it's important to have a passion project or two so you cam unwind and just have a good time painting something leisurely
There so important. I use twitch for it a lot of the time.
You should do a monthly army showcase video
That’s a good idea! I sometimes do showcases on my Patreon as well
This was a cool video, I like that it was more of a "I want to do this" rather than "I need to do this" kind of video I feel like having a side project during projects is fun be it painting a mini while assembling others or assembling a new mini while doing some batch painting.
Great video as always Andy I can't wait to see the next tank
Awesome pal. Can’t wait to show more of them off.
Get them painted!! 👏 😊
Hahah im trying.
Can never have too many tanks Andy. Nice one!
Totally agree 😄
Love your Krieg scheme
Cheers Jack!
The transfers make a massive difference. The super heavy tank would be my vote. Have a great break man
Cheers pal. And yes the transfer stage is so important.
Thanks, these are the videos I've been waiting for!
Glad to hear that! Lots more tanks left to come haha
Great stuff as usual. For tracks I just like doing primer black and heavy drybrush with metal color. Then can do dirty effects later and highlights as I need. Super fast and for me looks good.
That’s a great way of doing it, love it

I can see the Stug, but I mostly see the WW1 stuff in the tanks.
That’s fair.
Looking good!
Cheers pal.

You are indeed rite. Twin vanquisher cannons.
10/10 would ride into incoming Heresy.
Hahaha 🙌
love your vids, inspiration to building my own krieg army
There such a nice force to collect. So man h beautiful units.
I love how GW used to take WWI and WWII tracked vehicles, then smash them together.
Hahaha yup. It works.
oooo battle reports again i am so excited
They’ve been a lot time coming, I know!
Didn’t even realize that this kit was oop but the Avrus (presumably in plastic) just got revealed so here’s hoping 🙏
No it’s the resin kit but it’s been retooled so it will be nicer.
@@MediocreHobbiesyeah just saw that guess they needed updated molds lol.
Awesome job Andy. Macharius Vulcan next pleeeeease
Cool beans.
I am all about the Shovel Boiz!! Come on its a giant shovel with an engine and wheels ;-)
Hahahaha you noticed.
The tank with the Mega Vulcans next please.
Cool I shall add your vote in.
MORE KRIEG 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Always always always 🙌
Wuhu Krieg Tank series :-D
Hahah yes sir.
Do you have a Weathering Tutorial? That would be great
Here you go! th-cam.com/video/g4G2i_RhFpg/w-d-xo.html

Cheers pal and I get it’s not for everybody.
How would paint a krieg tank but using the same method you do for the Cadian tanks? Like what colors in order would you use?
Same paints as in this video. Grey blues sake to bright.
@@MediocreHobbies So Light Grey , The Fang, Seraphim Sephia, then the fang again? Also when you stipple do you wipe any of the paint off before applying?
Are there still rules to allow you to use the thunderer?
Yep.
Is that a demolisher cannon ?
I believe so. Ok not 100% sure.
A STuG is not a tank destroyer.
It's an assault / infantry support vehicle.
But i get where you're going with it.
Depends what gun it was fitted with. Early model was support late model was a tank destroyer.
@@MediocreHobbies true, but then it became a jagdpanzer instead of a STuG. But yes, the type of gun on the chassis kind of decides what it became.
Still, good video, tone it down on the powder (see what i did there?) 🤣
