GIVEAWAY WINNER - Congrats Bob McGregson for winning the Soviet army! ☺☺
I hope you guys enjoyed the video! I'm so happy to finally have an army (with a little more work to do).
Ollie, Congratulations on completing the 24 hour challenge and an entertaining video. The icing on the cake would be to beat Grim in a Bolt Action game WITH your the Polish. On behalf of the M4H Team, our beneficiaries and their families, thank you ever so much for your honest, meaningful support.
Welcome to another video and another 24 Hr painting challenge. I love depriving myself of sleep and taking on massive painting projects. We got it this time!! Let's go!!
Haha, sleeping is weakness. 😅
Been meaning to give Bolt Action a go for a while now, cool stuff!
Models for Hero’s... first I heard of this charity but I am totally on board... hah punny! This hobby and painting models has helped me so much through dark times and will always be a hobby I maintain. Also I am Polish and my grandfather was a machine gunner so this video rocks!
Oh thats amazing.. maybe they met, who knows?! 😀 I'm the same man, hobby has always been there, no matter what else is going on in life.
Models for heros are an absolutely amazing charity! Its fantastic news that a TH-camr with as many viewers as you is giving them some light!
Cheers!
Thanks! Im not massove by any means, but always happy to be involved in a bideo promoting something good. 😀
Love watching these 24 hr videos
Every time I see a video now I just see a hand coming through that hole in the studio. Great job as always. Cheers!
Haha, the wall hole.. ah itll be missed sort of. 😅
Awesome challenge. These challenges are getting better and better. Keep up the good work.
🤜🤛
Great job Oli. Enjoyed watching as always. 😊
I didn’t know about this charity. What a great cause, thanks for sharing.
Well there we go, if a few people learn about it, even better 😀
This is very cool I'm loving the 24 hour videos
Really nice job ! Greatings from Poland :)
It just shows what can be done when you set your mind to it.
Good job!
Thanks! 😀
Awesome, well done mate, I did miss a bit more shots of the 'finished' army though, would have like to see a bit more. And I was a bit worried about all the colours before the end, but the washes made them come really nice together, it looked great!
There is a still a bit more work to do, but not a lot of time needed. I'll finish them up this week I think, then they can move to the display cabinet in the new studio. 😀 ill be posting lots of pics in social media when they're done, so you'll be able to have a good look then.
Good job Oli! Loved the family link to the army choice. Keep up the good work 👍
My mate has tried getting me into bolt action for months...maybe this is the push to get some games in after lockdown? Best of luck with the charity challenge, and keep these challenge painting vids coming!
Its a grear system, I've not played it for ages, but im looking forward to getting stuck in again.😀
This is absolutely fantastic Oli and what a great cause it was for. Can definitely see you are becoming more comfortable with these challenges and your airbrushing skills. Given I am still waiting for my own Bolt Action army to arrive I can wait to crack on with mine when they arrive.
Ah thanks buddy! 😊 Yeah, I definitely feel like I'm more proficient with an airbursh now, so I feel more confident to use it on stuff now.
Ooo, what army you waiting on?
You're a real trooper dude, don't think I've got it in me to do ONE 24 hour challenge, let alone three or four, keep up the good work.
Haha, im just s glutton for punishment. I find them to be useful ways to get me painting my hoards of grey, as I never have the time to paint unless its for a video. 😀
Nice work Olly! Great backstory with Grandpa Bob, and such a great cause :) keep up,the great work!
Thanks man! 😀 Yeah, he'd be proud.. never popped his head out again. 🤣
Even unfinished they look amazing!
Thanks! I'll have a good go this week to make sure I finish them off, then they can move to the display cabinets in the new studio. 😀
Just love your 24h videos, it's really awesome you can do 24 hours of painting.
Ah thanks so much. 😀
Nice work. They look great. And well done on supporting such a worthy cause!
As much as I love 40k and AOS it’s great to see another gaming system. Video has convinced me to give this a go 👍
Thats excellent. 😀 Bolt Action is a really good game, with a good system.. I highly recommend.
Well done! In can be so difficult to work in the time pressure, but you earned the "and a bit" to see it done.
Still a bit more "and a bit" to get them finished 😅, but I'll do then this weekend. Then they've officially earned their place on the display shelf. 😀
I have an bolt action army based on my Grandfathers experience in WW2 as well. It was in my pile of shame but I have brought it out of the pile and I started building it up tonight! Thanks for the inspiration!
Amazing, its grest to see so many people use their real life as inspiration. 😀 What are you painting?
Great video... looking forward to seeing them on the tabletop.
Thanks buddy! I cant wait to have a game.. must get Grim Dice over for a game against the Russians. 😀
Great video Ollie, feeling quite inspired to get my Bolt Action British Paras clipped off the sprue and built up!! Thanks for the inspiration.
Yes, do it! I've got a British Para army say here too.. one day they shall get their turn. 🤔
@@BroadswordWargaming Yep, ive been putting them off for too long! Also have a Sarrisa Horsa to build. Might be my next lockdown project. Thanks again for the inspiration.
Cracking Challenge guys, was good to watch everyone involved. Well done all.
Thank you so much! 😀
Always fancied a go of bolt action! They came out great in the end!
Thanks! Good luck 😎
What an awesome historical link to an epic challenge! Congrats on completing this fine round
Great content ! Always loved Bolt Action but never been able to get the miniatures. I am crossing my fingers !
Well let's see if we can sort that! Someone has to win, so good luck dude! 😀
Madness in sues setting goals way ahead of the curve
Try, try and try again.. or something 😅
Good job Ollie! I watched BOTH streams and really enjoyed having a chance to be part of this. Was fun to paint along with you all. 💪🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much for the support. 😀 Did you get much done? It seems I ONLY paint in 24 hour sessions 😅
Woohoo! Congrats on finishing a 24 hr painting challenge Oliver. I must say this was the perfect video for me to get out my old SS army that are collecting dust in a box and remind myself on how much points i have and why bolt action is such a great game!
Keep up the good work and hope your move to the new studio transitions smoothly!👌
Thank you! 😀
Yeah, its such a good game. I've not played for a couple of years, but I'm looking forward to getting back into it now. 😎
Great work from you and Grim Dice. Fantastic effort for a brilliant cause!
Thank you 😊
Great work...getting back into using an airbrush, loved the tips on using one.
Cheers Nick
Great job Olly. Your models look very good. I've never done any WW2 stuff in 28mm, though I do quite a lot of scale model aircraft in 1/72.
Thank you very much. I've got a bit to do to them, which I'll do this week. Highlights, metals, more on the bases etc, but not too far off. 😀
I enjoyed doing these, you should give them a go..who knows, you might win a bolt action set. 😀
Enjoyed seeing your concepts and look forward to seeing more
Good effort . Well done . And viola . A proxy imperial guard regiment .
I'm never going to do one of these "Paint X miniatures in X hours" things myself, but I like watching other people do it. Nice work!
Quit a nice way of painting an army like this in batches.. Liked how the bases made the colours pop even more.. Weldone
Yeah, its a bit of a slog but it's certainly effective. I hate having to go back and do the boring parts.. so getting everything base coated together means I can do the rest in my own time. 😀
Fingers crossed these look really cool
Good luck!
The reddish earth really complements the khaki uniforms, great choice :D
Thanks buddy! 😀 I'm definitely going to add more to the bases, just to make them look fancy.
Just when I wanted to try to get into bolt action this video comes out to feed my need.
Boom, Internet win.
Brilliant charity and great content
These look great and a nice little change of pace from the GW models.
Great video, makes me want to paint up my bolt action.
Seems pretty great, great job!
Thanks buddy! 😀
Never thought of using the airbrush for the base khaki colors. Great idea!
Some amazing looking models
Never painted anything like these before, I should give it a shot sometime
Well good luck with the draw 😀
I really enjoyed watching this and talking to both you and the gents from Grim Dice Tabletop Gaming. You need to work on Belgians next.
Yeah, a nice Ardennes army 👌 Thank you for all the support and staying up with us, it really helped keep us going. 😍
Keep up the good job brotha love the reason for doing this!!
Thanks so much! 😀
We need Bolt Action Plastic Italians!
Bolt action looks fun. Reminds me of playing Close Combat on the PC. The Pegasus Bridge set is once if my dream mini purchases
That is a massive set too.. do it 😀
@@BroadswordWargaming I will. It's just a matter of time..
Love the vids would love to see more bolt action stuff 😁
Don’t forget to like and comment to appease the almighty algorithm 👍🏼
Thanks man!
I juet got into wargaming around 2 months ago. Winning the prize would be really cool!
Always love your challenges, and for a really good cause!
Another good effort especially in 24hrs, looking forward to next months challenge 🤣🤣😉
... oh god.. Did someone say Kings of War? 😅
They look really amazing. I really hope you can raise a lot for Models for Heroes
Got the british airborne starter and I'm nearly half way through after more than 30 hours of work. Nice painting! Looks like I need an air brush aswell.
You can do it!
Great effort and such a good cause! Wish I had time to do a 24hour challenge, I might make some progress that way!
Nice video! Really enjoyed it, and I wouldn't mind something to paint, but best of luck to everyone!
Very kind, so in return, best of luck to you too!
I was gutted for you when your previous army was stolen, so really pleased that you have a new Polish army to be proud of. Nice one mate!
Thanks buddy! 😀
Cool to see your charity efforts :)
Thanks! 😀
Poles were my first BA army. I used the vallejo paint set and it was like painting by numbers but took ages! These look cool! Good work and a great charity.
24h painting is truly a feat! well done.
Thank you. Yeah, its hard work but does force me to paint them. 😅
Fantastic to see bolt action pop back up.
Hope you get to catch up on your sleep soon.
Cheers
You were talking about the studio you work in but the cement wall is a really good looking backdrop
I know, its so good.. its jsut horribky cold and ruins everything (which is why inlook awful in this video 😅). Ill miss the wall.
Yeah thats too bad
Great cause and nice job with this army, it was close!
It definitely helps with motivation if there is some emotional resonance in the project. Well done!
Totally agreed. Its nice to paint up ole' grandad Bob. 😀
Great job ! Glad you managed to push through such a daunting quantity of models ! Thumbs up !
I’ve looked at Bolt Action and have thought about playing, this video has convinced me to at least buy some models to paint!
Great video and charity.
Thanks! Yeah, its a great system and it's a good way to learn about the history of different nations, in regards to the war. Its all very well written and researchee (as far as I can tell). 😀
Great effort! Good to see you doing historicals on the channel!
Was in Grim Dice last week.....cracking little shop
A great cause, well done.
Great charity and hope you get a lot of awareness!
Great to polish up my polish painting skills
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
A great video for a great cause dude :) Keep it up!
I haven't played Bolt Action but after seeing this and getting the free US marine sprue from this month's Wargames Illustrated I might have to look into it.
Do! I've not played for a few years, but excited to get back into it. 😀
For the record, you are right. The Polish cavalry never charged tanks. Though the tanks they were engaged by were Pzr Kpw Mk II which were miniscule by even the Mk III & IV tanks the Germans had. What happened was the cavalry caught a German supply column in the flank and were tearing them a new one when the tanks showed up. The Cavalry were supported by machine guns by the way. A German news reel team came on the scene after the cavalry had withdrawn and made the story up for propaganda. No mention was made of the chopped up supply column.
Just as an aside, that little TKS tankette looks like the model with the 20 mm gun which was piloted by a heroic type who fought and destroyed a significant number of German tanks using ambush tactics. The Germans said the tank was so small and fast it was like trying to hit a cockroach.
A really important thing to be part of .
Funny coincidence, I've started watching Your channel for Kill Team content, and lately I've been interested in Bolt Action.
Fingers crossed
Great minds! Be prepared for more of both. 😀
I don't think I could do 24 hours, but good on you using your gifts to help charity!
Loving the 24hr videos and the inclusion of your Irish belle as well. Keep the great work up guys
Thanks buddy! Bloody 24 hour videos, killing me slowly haha.
@@BroadswordWargaming just know we all appreciate the content and as much as it may be tiring, we all love it. You’ve helped me Rediscover my love for hobby between the two of you and I couldn’t be happier to see content coming out
@@chrisanderson3387 aw that's awesome, its amazing to think that it's helped you get your mojo on.. you'll have to paint a long to the next 24 hours and really get stuck in 😄
@@BroadswordWargaming unfortunately as a student nurse, I’m not able to do 24 hour painting challenges or I would have by now. I do intend on doing one in two 12 slots so maybe watch along with you on two different events. As I said, please keep the great work up guys, it’s a massive help to people in this crappy time
Looks cool!
Definitely gonna miss that gritty wall, but I'm happy to hear about your improvements to your working quarters!
I know. Goodbye sweet wall.. but fear not, ill.be spending alot of time (and probably too much money) on building the whole studio/set. 😀
Great job on the charity stream
The real story behind the Polish cavalrymen is the tale of I believe C squadron, 18th Pomeranian Uhlans and the Charge at Krojanty. The 18th Uhlans were actually in the middle of conversion to the modern mechanized standard. Their A and B squadrons had already been converted to armored vehicles and was trying to get mounted up on the first day of the war. The still horse mounted elements of the 18th responded to a break through by elements of the Wehrmacht 76th infantry regiment, who'd broken the line of Polish border troops near them. The lancers rallied, and rode out to battle, catching a battalion of infantry at rest, they charged, and routed the German infantry.
This actually had massive impact on the initial campaign, as wild stories of Polish horsemen in the German rear terrorized the German logistical element and through quite the wrench in their works generally. Unfortunately for our heroic lancers of the 18th however, they too were caught at rest shortly after their charge by German armored cars, and many Uhlans and their mounts were cut down by machine gun fire as they rallied and fell back. It's the bodies of these fallen Polish heroes and their horses that the German propagandists showed to Italian newsmen and spun as stories of Polish cavalry charging the mighty tanks of the Wehrmacht.
A valiant effort. Bravo. Love that you did this for charity, good on you.
cool to see Poles being painted!
Always loved WW2 and miniatures and its shameful I only found out about Bolt Action about a year ago, it would be cool to build and paint the Soviets Finest
Well good luck! 😀
Great cause! I hope you do well for them, nice one.
Great work man
I loved this video like all of yours.
Thank you 😊
Good video and a good cause what more could you ask for (except maybe cake)
Mmm.. cake.
Hadn't heard of the charity, its nice to see our hobby helping people when they really do need it.
I agree. Its great to find ways to help people. If I can help, even better. 😀
Madlad doing 24h painting challenges! Kings of War next? :p
I did think about it.. do I? 🤔 No.. I mean.. I could 😅
Nice work, I find my BA guys incredibly tedious going compared to big chunky Space Marines, but having picked up an airbrush in lockdown it might be time to try a similar project.
I know what you mean. Theyre quite fiddly, but, find a simple enough scheme and theyre alright 😀 The airbrush is a life saver really.
