Me, a women: YEAH BOOB ARMOUR!
Edit: Most of you have stated that the sternum wedge crushing your heart has been disproven so Ill retract my earlier statement but leave it intact below so all the responses telling me how wrong I am makes more sense. It was mostly a joke about a vampire having intentionally chosen armour that increased the chance of ending their existence to finally be free of the vampiric curse. I am not against female miniatures in games and representation is a good thing if it brings more people into the hobby.
Original: the ridges are to deflect blades and make them slide of the dents would make the force focus on the boobs and classic boobarmour with a ridge in the middle to crush the sternum and heart is never a good idea for anyone, moobs or boobs.
so the dents in the armour is a vampires cry for an end to the unlife much like the one that keeps a stake and hammer on the coffinside table while they sleep.
also my kitbashes rarely if ever save money and i noticed the trick was to know john and have him give you things for free. we cant all do a podcast with john your cellar would become very cramped very fast. usually i end up using 3 kits for one model and it would end up costing me 500 dollars for a unit instead of an army.
Dmeep ok but why was this needed?
1. This is a fantasy game and the minis are small so the best way to define a feminine body is to have boob armour
2. As a woman myself as as this commenter is stating we are just happy to see more women be involved in warhammer as there aren’t a lot of female figures- I’m also glad that there is now a whole 40k army that are solely female.
If i have made a mistake at all I am sorry but you just seem to be spouting facts you know for that sake of someone excited about boob armour
Woman weighing in (grandmother helping 10 year old navigate his new interest). Since it's my hundreds moola financing this addiction, also happy to see creation of female armour. These kids integrated female characters into video games ages ago. Good to see table top catching up.
TJ Duprey I love the female sculpts as well, they aren’t overly sexualised in most cases. There are some exceptions but most are powerful and beautifully made. I know she isn’t alive per say but I love Lady Olynder so much- such a Beauitful mini.
I really want a female cadian set. soldier women in fatigues.
Miniac: "suck on that comment section!"
Vampire viewers: lick their lips nervously
Imagine living your undead life for hundred of years of training to be the perfect combatant, only to get shot by a 3 weeks old rat on cocaine with with a machine gun.
Future is now-now old thing.
Or swarmed to death by a mob of screaming, flailing, green morons, who've also only been alive for 3 weeks.
Or shot but a 28 year old rifleman named Henrik.
@@BUSSTISEBOOST Rather all of that than being slaughtered by a bunch of Stormcast -posterboys
@@BUSSTISEBOOST *laughs in helstorm rockets* "you got a rocket target?"
Kill-Slay Dead Things Yes-Yes
I am a simple man, I see "Savin money in warhammer: I click.
yup me too
Im a poor man, i just bought archeon..
Kinda fitting considering a lot of their products are going up in price again. 😆
I mean yes, money was saved. But how much time did all this converting and sculpting take? Your time is worth money too.
@@alcovitch Well, that depense in how you look at this endeavor.
If Warhammer is your hobby and you are into the building and converting part of it, then this is no work at all, but pleasure. So stating it is not cost effective is not working here.
If you are only into the playing or painting part of the hobby, by all means, you are right.
So it totally depends on angle of approach here :)
"6 Months later, they are still not painted"
I'm painting them next week
@@Miniac Great job - would love to see the painted result
@@Miniac We'll wait for the footage.. lol. I expect nothing but love like was done for your vampire kit
Miniac Suuuuure, we believe you Miniac. If that even is your name! Pffff who names their kid ‘miniac’
@@internetman1213 xD
-"He's going to drill into his finger isn't it"
-"And then I drilled into my finger like a moron"
BINGO!
Side note, fun video to watch. Worth your blood sacrifice.
I was waiting for the same thing and he did not/did disappoint lol Have you ever heard of a pin vise, Scott, you Miniac??? XD
Would they even really be blood knights if it weren't for the blood sacrifice?
I was really hoping to see what happened to his finger but I guess he didn't think it was worth showing and seeing how quickly he started working again I see why
I want to say that while it might not be getting as much attention, the EDITING and STYLE in this video is on point. The short skits, the editing and on screen writing, the camera angles - this all screams professionalism while also having plenty of character. Good damn job!
Uh oh, he put kitbashing and saving money together at the same time, the channels success has clearly gone to his head.
Puh, save money while kitbashing, the man's mad!
To be fair, he spend as much as a regular unit cavalry would cost but bloodknights are just absurdly expensive.
AoS heroes are easy places to save quite a bit of money by kitbashing, but that's also true in some edge cases, like these, Varanguard, Gyrocopters, and getting the most out of kits like the Volleygun and Hurricanum. Mostly it's just a way to make your stuff look better in your army, like using drakespawn for saurus knights or using anything else than the regular set for Freeguild Handgunners.
1) love the kitbashing
2) love the transition/reveal lighting
3) love the general style of this video
4) did not love drilling into index finger
In ten years someone see this video and think: what on earth do they means by corona swap?
Lets hope so.
can we just mention the fact that he gave him mc Donald's? Nearly died of laughter there.
Conversions are honestly my favourite part of the hobby.
I also did a Blood Knights conversion. Fist I took my extremely old Vlad Von Carstien model, put him in a drawer with my old empire knights. After a couple days they were all turned. So I painted them red.... that's it. oh, and put them on oval bases. 👍.
but seriously yours look amazing. That was some crafty work on the custom armor.
Do blood knights start moving faster when there are orks around?
I feel inspired! Putting "ork Kitbash" on the list!
Orks would be fun because some of their stuff seems to be similar to contemporary things, so you can hit up the toy aisle.
One word: Rivets
These look really cool Scott, can't wait to see them painted! :-) Thanks for the tip about Dan, I'll bring McDonalds the next time I see him.
When doing chainmail armour, If you do one row the way you did in a line down and then the next row turn the model upside down and go the other way it looks very effective. Just a little tip
I'm not part of the whole miniature hobby. I just play the total war game. And I have to say I'm mighty impressed with this. Sculpting and cutting away things from the models to make them look good blows my mind. Actually so sick.
This is a great way to get a gentle introduction to sculpting your own minis. Mostly you used what is already created but you get to sculpt a little. Personally I don't think the cost savings is worth the time unless you really love making your own minis but the really cool aspect is having something that is unique and exactly what you like/want. This is a great video to show how to go about kit bashing and I love the covid exchange - informational and entertaining.
Reminds me of the time when I was a teenager, just had the money for an Inquisitor for my Witchhunters in 40k and none for his retinue. So I just build them out of all the bits me and my friends had. From todays point of view, they are not looking that good and some really teenager ideas I would say, but still the models I'm really proud about.
I feel like the recent surge in 3d printing could be a massive help in making conversions like this, especially considering this month's theme on the titan forge patreon is Vampires.
Printing individual parts from models for conversions at home seems like a great idea and i'd love to see what scott could do with it.
An extra bonus to a heavily converted army:
Everyone will think you are a modeling god and nobody will ever forget your super cool one of a kind minis.
Highlighting a book, that's heresy in my eyes.
Dude, this video was a shit ton of work I'm sure but I think it's one of your best from a technical filmmaking standpoint - not that my opinion means anything at all lol. But seriously, man, great work on this, excellent shots, I love the sound design and the music cues, great gag bit for the social distancing trade off, excellent work on the actual content of the video, this was really great man, hats off!
I've been kitbashing my guard an loving it. I appreciate this video a lot Miniac!
Excellent overview of the process and skills, without lingering too long or being patronising. Thank you!I Also I _love_ the effort and humour you put into these vids. Informative and entertaining!
such a great conversion love to see these painted up
My favorite part was the banner. Brass, drilling, glue, perfection.
This is a fantastic video, I've been planning to kitbash some old fantasy Dwarfs for a long time. Thanks for the great tips and inspiration! I'd also love to see more kitbashing videos, they're so entertaining (and since you're kitbashing, cheap too!).
This is by far one of my favorite videos from you!! Super cool and awesome conversion!!! And a nice path of the video with funny and interesting parts. Thanks for sharing this conversion story with us! I'm really looking forward to seeing them painted ;)
Awesome done. Love it. Great to see how you made this, thx for sharing!
They look awesome, great work! Looking forward to seeing them painted
Thanks for this. It really helped me.
It was really cool how you did a video applying the skill you recently learned. I would love to see you do a vid or two showing how you decide to paint this kitbash.
It's so good to see you working on something you really love again buddy. Can't wait to see these folks painted up!
Would love to see a future video of these being painted up! Great work Scott
I've watched this video many times. Always gets me excited about another kit bash. Thanks for a great watch, Scott!
Awesome work as usual Scott, by far my fav mini painting channel. I'm yet to find a video that hasn't made me laugh. I love your humor.
Scott your last two videos have been excellent. I always enjoy the episodes where you have to learn something, it's very interesting to see your process for learning and practicing. Great job man!
Dude, they look great. It's great to see the videos and skills you learnt like sculpting, then featuring in later videos. It's great to see your skills develop and shows what's possible! Keep it up.
Great video. Great breakdown. You are getting me to start wanting to attempt sculpting again.
This is Insane, I was JUST thinking about this these past few days!! Thankyou Scott
Kit bashin and sculptung makes your army Unique.TRUE LOVE.
This is such a great video! I always love saving money + mini work!
Great video. Kitbashing and converting is honestly my favourite aspect of the hobby, more so than painting. I modify almost every unit I get my hands on even if it's just a simple headswap.
I can't wait to see these painted. Very cool.
Man, you make it look easy! You keep surprising me with new skills every single video. I know scultping from the last weeks video should translate to this pretty well, but I still think this is a different kind of approach to sculpting, and needs a lot of organization in your head.
Can't wait to see them painted next week, they look sick.
Makes me want to finish my soulblight stuff. Thanks for the detailed list of bits.
Excellent work!!! Your sculpting is getting better each time!!!
I really like the fade in with the units. Great video man.
I love your dedication for your videos. These vampires look absolutely sick and the amount of work you put into it is amazing. And the result is well worth the effort!
This was such a dope video! Nice conversion work!
These minis are awesome, a lot of personality! And they are unique! This is what this hobby is about! Very well done!
I love kitbashing, not much for units but all my characters are made of bits from my bit box or from the Internet. They deserve to be unique after all!
Great conversions! Would love to see more videos as you continue to expand your army :)
Kitbashing is the best thing in our hobby
Impressive!... I look forward to seeing these painted.
This is awesome! I hope we get to see them painted next week!
Can't wait to see these painted!
Id love to see more kitbashing videos like this!
Fantastic video! love the project and the video editing aswell!
YOU HAVE IMPROVED BY 100% SINCE I HAVE BEEN WATCHING!!! WELL DONE, INCREDIBLE!!!!!
Can't wait to see them painted, nice job!
That was great, I'd love to see more videos like it.
Absolutely perfectly timed. I found a few boxes of the old chaos knights that had the metal riders and horse upgrades. Great shout on the terrorgheist vampire. I'll break out the blue stuff and get copying. Thankyou.
Awesome dude! Another cracking video. Also you've inspired me for when i return to complete my Legion of Night blood knights. Cheers
Looking forward to seeing them painted!
So cool ! Hope you'll make more conversions videos in the future !
Can't wait to see you paint that unit!! Love Vampires!!
How many memories, i did a similar thing eith black knight before they had the plastic model. Great job awsome result you had!
Conversion projects video are dope ! Nice job
I really like converting/kitbashing, great to see a video on this channel about it. May be one day i'll see here same video about some space marine chapters/warbands.
Exceptional work, awesome video, bravo sir!
Great sculpt work !
The thumbnail for this video had me dying hahaha.
Excellent video ! I hope you will do more conversion/kit bashing video in the future, it's really inspiring :)
Sick conversion!
This view just popped up on my feed but I really enjoyed watching it. For me, part of the enjoyment of the hobby is kitbashing - it's a way to save money but also make your units really unique. I'm currently kitbashing basically everything Aeldari possible since so much of their stuff is compatible/interchangeable. Also, many of their older heroes are using multi-decade old metal models which are hard to find, expensive, and are too small for the modern game. I'm having loads of fun finding parts and making idea boards for the units.
totally awesome dude. keep it up.
Bro this is so dope! Very inspiring 👏
Cant wait for the painting video of these guys!
Really badass work, Scott!!!
Great job smashing all those together..... look forward to seeing them all painted up. Would drive me crazy painting them in their completed form though, good luck slim
Awesome kitbash. I'm truly inspired.
These are so good! You should be very proud. I've subscribed because of this video.
This video was super entertaining Scott. I love the kit bashing and sculpting. I did Kit bash recently for creating my own Savlar Chem dogs.
I love shit like this, great job! They look so unique and even better than from the box!
These are amazing
So much inspiration to be had from this vid,✌️🤙
I would love to see another kitbashing video and/or sculpting to add character video in the future! Like many commentators have said, this is one of the more fun aspects of the hobby, regardless of how hard GW is trying to stamp it out MONOPOSE STYLE.
Very inspiring, once I get money I look into buying bits to test out some conversion ideas.
1:23 - great scream, I must give it to you. Oh, and I could've guessed, that you paid for Jon's bits with chicken tendies hahaha :D
Love this video, man, kitbashing is one of my favourite things about the hobby, and as cool as I think the newer more dynamic minis are, the tandem move towards less kitbashable kits is a shame. Thanks for the inspiration, and I agree that you got a significantly cooler and totally unique result. Keep up the great work!
Amazing work.
Bravo Sir, BRAVO ! Excellent kitbash ! Good video !
awsome to see more kitbashing videos
Love the fridge doorhandle!
This is an awesome video! Keep up the good work.
We have a good rule at my local. We call it "permanently counts as". You can kit bash and play any unit you like but once you say waht it is, that is what it is. Helps prevent confusion and misunderstanding in the store comp, while still allowing you to be creative.
Superb job!
Man, you are not just an excellent painter, but a pro at making the videos and narrating them. They are fun to watch and very informative. I paint 1:72 jet fighters, but got to your channel after watching the airbrushes video. I went to visit a friend, and by coincidence, picked up a box of Chaos Cultists at Amatos' Toy store in New Britain, Connecticut, US. I would love to paint a Space Ultramarine and a Blood Angel, but I do not want to get too many of them.
This is amazing
Thank this has inspired me
