- I was gifted a "land raider" by a generous fan. So I painted it.
I also wrote a song about land raiders, so hang on until the end of the video to experience that.
And Mrs Miniscape may have something to say too.

Entertaining, esp for those of us that only DREAMED of having real money in the 90s
It is called a "Land Raider" because that is what half the "Kill Dozer" was called in Matchbox's "Adventure 2,000" toy range. It was featured as the hero vehicle from Judge Dredd: Cursed Earth storyline (2,000AD, progs 2000 AD Progs 61 - 85), which was a cross-company advertising campaign with Matchbox.
The paint job really sells the 2nd Ed vibe; and the model is a great reworking of the original. One of my favourite minis released in the past few years is the rescaled Fury Dreadnought available as .stl.
The Miniscape Singers really nailed the official Land Raider song.
Oh I thought it was 🎵called a land raider because it was found by Arkhan Land🎵😅
In the grim darkness of the present, everything you know is a lie! =][= 😄@@Miniscape-wh40k
No that's the Landspeeder XD
@@kharnifex no, he found both
No. Neither did he find. Only found he condiments in the desolate pantry of space.
This is the most happy I’ve ever been while listening to a song about Land Raiders 😊😊😊
😍
To be fair! It's the only song about Land Raiders we've heard, so not sure what metric to go by?!?!?!?
Maybe it can be followed up with a smash hit about Land Speeders?!?!
@@utubenoobie01 Haven't you heard the classic "Land Raider, Bang-a-boom!"; the Cadian entry in the 1973 Eurovision Song Contest?
Retro stuff brings a burst of nostalgia to my hollow heart.
Glad you like it 😊
My friend gave me a damaged original landraider from his unfinished models a few months ago. When I stripped it back I found 2 different chapter paintschemes and decals under the paint. A relic of decades of battles. Now its the sacred relic of my Hospitallers.
Whats the name of the chapters?
A fellow Hospitaller Player? Nice!
@himenolover69uwu it was originally an ultramarine with the decals and was painted over as a dark angels

Oh man the metal sponsons.... reminds me of the predator annihilator that had metals sponsons, top plate and turret. The metal parts weighed more than all the plastic sprues combined and was a nightmare to construct 😅
Indeed
I've got a metal Whirlwind that I've never successfully assembled. I may give it another shot one of these days.
Yeah but the good thing is it’s so heavy you can use it as a weapon against your opponent if you lose
I managed to assemble mine both left handed back in the day.
Haha yes! I have the whirlwind and it's bloody heavy! 😅
Yes, the best battle tonk there ever was. Never had one of these but they were something like £8 entire pounds back then, and they'd published the templates to build your own anyway. I have a 3D printer, yeah, baby, deep gurglie resin, and if i had a mind to, I gots me the skillz to build the box. Might give it a go someday, probably after the doc tells me the liver's shot.
On the other hand, there's little point owning one of these if you're not going to play, and I live in Brighton so that's absolutely not an option.
Never really got how one raids the land, of course. Sounds like a synonym for 'mud-mugger'. "You there, the big clod with the tufts of brown grass, give us all your money!"
I'm looking forward to your song. When I see one of these beauties my brain starts playing 'Renegade Master' by Lardlad Slender, also a resident of this benighted hellhole-on-the-wet.
Now, I knew the Lozenge Revenger before I became an engineer and would get irked by such things, but, the twin big-zap is a gentle reminder that in OG Rouge Turnover the big zap needed a turn to recharge, so the idea was these things would alternate over and under each round, making them a wee bit dangerous, although they could fire all four at once should the need arise. I might not be remembering that right but my 1st ed Range Trader is deep in dad's attic and if I extract it, he'll have me take the entire box home with me, and that's an entire box full of 1st and 2nd edition books I have no current use for except to withdraw ye olde trivia from. That includes both Realm of Chaos hardbacks, both signed by Rick Priestly, I am not above gloating. Or bloating. I remain opposed to boating, however.

Auricus You never forget it.
Lentillian Sir?
Auricus The smell of battle. The scent of war. The acid bite of death.
Lentillian I think that's the latrines, sir, they've just given them a dose of bleach.
Auricus Beyond that, Sergeant, a deeper malodorous stench.
Lentillian Right, sir, stench of death. With a subtle hue of pine, sir.
Auricus There's no romance in your soul, Sergeant.
Lentillian I'd hope not, sir, I'm not fond of the Asteroids Medicawhatsits, sir.
Auricus It's a metaphor.
Lentillian Sounds like it, sir, probably terminal, sir.
Auricus Well, there's no time to waste. This Necron horde is growing in power every minute. Charge up the las-cannons, Bertie, we've got robots to kill.
Lentillian Right-oh, boss. They're on medium heat. Of course, they're sorta dead already, aren't they, sir?
Auricus Not dead enough.
Lentillian Right, right, sir. Only they're robots, aren't they? Robot's aren't alive at all, that's what they told me in Mechanicus school, sir.
Auricus These ones are special.
Lentillian I'm not complaining, mind you, I'd not bothered what we're shooting at, exactly. Just tell me what colour's on the menu today and I'll burn it away regardless, sir.
Auricus Anything glowing green.
Lentillian Green glow, yes, sir, easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Spot 'em one point six kilometres off, sir.
Auricus These ones are relentless, Bertie.
Lentillian Relentless robots, yes, sir.
Auricus They don't feel pain, Bertie. They're out there. They can't be bargained with, reasoned with. They don't feel pity, or remorse, or fear, and they absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.
Lentillian That reminds me of something, sir.
Auricus Yes, well.
Lentillian It's all far above my pay grade, sir. These las-cannons, sir…
Auricus What is it, Sergeant?
Lentillian They're not charging, sir.
Auricus That's a problem.
Lentillian I'll just pop out and check the cable's plugged in.
Auricus As you like, Sergeant.
Greene Ah, sir? Commander, sir?
Auricus Yes, corporal?
Greene The power block has failed a bit, sir.
Auricus Failed… …a bit?
Greene Well, there's no power at all, sir, so, it has failed, sir. Sorry, sir.
Lentillian Uh, sir, I'm sorry to report on the las-cannons, sir…
Auricus Don't tell me…
Lentillian They're not entirely attached to the blessed machine, sir.
Greene …and the engine's gone, too, sir.
Auricus The engine is missing?
Greene Yes, sir, even the frame mounting bolts.
Auricus Do you mean to tell me that in the last ten minutes we've been parked here, someone has stolen all four laser cannon, AND the entire engine block, from this armoured battle tank, and neither of you noticed?
Lentillian And the proximity sensors, sir.
Auricus Well, obviously. I checked the Order of Battle, Bertie, we're four hundred kilometres away from the deployment zone for the Liver Birds chapter…
Lentillian May I see that sir?
Auricus Very well, there you go.
Lentillian Ah, that's the problem, sir, if I might be so bold, sir.
Auricus Do feel free to enlighten me, Sergeant.
Lentillian See, what they've done, sir, I think, is draw a big circle on this map, sir, to confuse you into thinking they were deploying over here, instead of here, where we are, sir.
Auricus How can you tell?
Lentillian Well, sir, tactical and strategic battle topology documents are produced by the Adeptus Cartorius, and printed on laminated wrinkle-resistant sheeting by embedding ultra-contrast quasi-static molecular dyes, sir…
Auricus …yes?
Lentillian Well, that bit's written in biro, sir.
£8 wow
Yeah, I'm pretty sure £7.99 got you either a James Spader or a pair of Winos. I mean my memory is not what it were but it was around that. Of course, you could get four pints of lager, two packets of crisps and a bowl of peanuts to consume while you chain smoked at the bar for that, too, so. WAY better times is what I'm sayin'. @@Miniscape-wh40k
You kill me every time 😂 you got the family involved! Hilarious man 😂😂😂
🤣
I got this for my birthday when I was like 12 in '92 even though Id never even played 40k and was only vaguely aware of what it was (I think the closest thing I had at the time was Space Crusade board game).
So, you invented a special rule to have the land raider crash onto the table and annihilate the dreadnought?😊
Okay so the makeup brush skit was basically a direct recreation of what happened to me too…. 😂
That Land Raider song is stuck in my head now….
😅
I remember the Land Raider effectively being a blank during 2nd edition. Some older people had them left over from that mysterious game that came before but I never saw one until the new model released during 3rd.
That was also my experience
I had an original but needed to add to my forces during the dark ages of 2nd and early 3rd when none were to be found. There were Leman Russ tanks though and those could serve as the basis for a scratch built Land Raider many, including myself, used.
@@kennethfharkin very cool. The ingenuity of hobbyists always amazes me.
This took me back to the wilderness years of the Land Raider. Luckily I had 2 from Rogue Trader but we all wanted more. I can remember all the WWI kitbashes (I think one based on the Mother tank did even appear in White Dwarf) and many of us tried to make versions of the one in Epic (our first glimpse of what would eventually come to 40k). But, back in the day, we could go through whole editions without having models to represent what was in the Codex.
I've got an original painted in 2nd Ed style on a box somewhere. I remember being so excited to get it in 1994 ish
🤣 Loved the "Raider of Land" encore. Great looking tank, mate. Hope we get a video of it in action some time. 👍Hope the premier went well.🍿
Glad you liked it. Yeah pretty well thanks.
My favorite Land Raider moment was in 5th edition when my crusader (blessedly plastic by that point) disgorged its full capacity of master-crafted thunderhammer wielding assault termies on my friend's wraithlord and he just picked it up without making me roll. Pretty nice feeling after spending most of 3rd and 4th watching my White Scars bikers getting ripped to shreds by starcannons.
Absolutely and I relate to that situation
Only just stumbled on his channel but I really enjoyed the video! I like the little skits inbetween the painting really breaks up the video nicely.
Well thank you and good to have you along. I like making the skits too. Someone complained about them earlier but hey ho you can't please everyone
That's my era and that looks bloody awesome!
Cool tank! The song and the brush skit were the highlights though!
There seem to be much happiness and joy on the home world of your chapter.
I think so too 😊
Came out great. I remember my friends and I looking at pictures of the Land Raider in White Dwarfs and books when we first got into 40K and lamenting that it wasn't something that was available to buy at the time. Back when lascannons were some of the biggest guns in the game, a tank with 4 of them seemed insane.
Grand old dutchess of tanks, love it
The video started great, then it got better. Following that, it grew better still. The video continued to get better, until a time wherein it was, again - better.
Finally, by the time the Land Raider song came about, the video had received so much more betterness that this ol' nob got da best laff he has had all day.
Thankyou for your service. Enjoy your trip to sunny Catachan!!!
I am so happy you enjoyed it 😄 and thanks for taking the time to comment 😀
This might be the cutest thing I've ever seen released from Games Workshop.
🤣 awesome second edition vibes mate - thank you! Also, I have your bloody song stuck in my head! 😱😱🤣
How the heck have I never heard of this channel before?
This man’s a bloody comedy genius!
Literally the best hobby video I’ve seen in literally many, many, many years!
Liked and subbed!
Too kind. I'm just a small, fledgling channel. Been going since May, which is why you haven't heard of it until now. Thanks for your kind words.
@@Miniscape-wh40k you are a legend in the making
AND as I also play Ultramarines I was super excited to hear about the paints used and some of the techniques You applied - looking forward to TRYING to recreate a TINY percentage of what you can do with my limited skill set?
@@Waaagghhh thank you. An older video of mine where I paint Saul Invictus, that's where I go into more depth painting infantry. Might be useful to you. Also the whirlwind video might help.
@@Miniscape-wh40k thank you!!!! Me newest and bestest TH-camr!!!
@@Waaagghhh 😍
Howard? Cool Jazz and Land Raiders... you've gone mental!
This vid is ticking all sorts of boxes mate. Super Kudos. Best of hobby luck Skipper :)
Thank you 😊
Have it run over some 2nd edition Nids and you've got my vote for life :)
i still remember the land raider crusader for the black templars of my friend ,always falling off certain bits! love the paint job on the 3d printed one, props to Ed from the US for the print.
Well Landraider, Raider of Land is going to live rent free in my head for maybe a decade
Haha sorry
Been waiting for this for so long, and boy it was worth the wait. Crisp and awesome as always bud!
Also the skit 😂 hahaha
😅
Such a hard model to find around the place.
Glad we have an alternative.
I"d love to see an original Darlek predator in the same colours.
This guy came up on my recommended and I absolutely love this video so much!
Glad you like it
I have the land raider song stuck in my head now, I think I'll annoy by brothers by singing it all the time 😂
Excellent ! Thanks. i have one Land raider 2nd édition that need to refurbish, i will sing the song while doing it
Yay
That ditty really cooks!
Very entertaining and it's so much fun to see how far the hobby has come. I do miss some of the older models. They're just so 80's.
The unpainted turnaround instantly reminded me of Wall-E with those guns on the top as his eyes. Can't unsee it now
I got into 40k very end of 9th ed and these kinds of videos are really pushing me down the retro hammer rabbit hole. Already painting my primaris lads up in a pseudo 2nd ed paint scheme and am slowly acquiring a collection of 2nd and 3rd ed marines and terminators. Would very much like to get the chance to play with the old rules some day.
I’ve been searching Apple Music for the Land Raider song but can’t seem to find it 😢. Your retro army knocks the socks off all the fancy shmancy Primaris armies with their “pro” paint jobs! I’m off for a brew….😙🎵 land raider, raider of land…
Haha it's in your head now. It's not on any music streaming platform...yet
I've only ever seen it from the front or close to facing the front; wow those proportions were a surprise.
It's a mighty machine, and you've done it proud. Like you I never saw one in the shops, just saw them in the occasional battle report, and the ad in the one old White Dwarf that was my first, long before I played the game. Speaking of its resemblance to the old WWI tanks, I remember a White Dwarf where they featured - after the original kit was retired, but before the new one was announced, so I guess it wasn't 'competing' with anything - a kitbash Land Raider based on an actual WWI tank kit. That, the Shampoo Bottle Hover Tank, and the time they put the plans for a plasticard Baneblade in the magazine for folks to scratchbuild by themselves, are kind of my holy trinity of the early 'eh whatever' attitude to the game, before the 'official minis and only official minis' attitude swept everything else away.
I still want to make that baneblade
I flipped one of mine upside down and added a rhino to the front per the WD article and...TAH DAH. Spartan
you are killing it man!
🤩 thank you
Nice end product, looking very much like the box art/White Dwarf stuff from back in the day! The pictures and artwork features in White Dwarf magazines were salivating for me! When I was a kid at my local library where the librarian knew me well she always knew the first thing I wanted to check out was the newest issue of white dwarf and at times even stashed it aside for me. This was Finland in the 90's and early 2000's. I think now I haven't seen any libraries with White Dwarf magazines. Maybe the license for it got too expensive. And now I will fulfill my nostalgia needs by acquiring a land raider proteus! Perfect timing for me as I've started accumulating a Space Wolves army, giving me a reason to get it!😅
It sounds like a cool library
i have the old land raider, predator, chimera and rhino(x2). Even the boxes haha. SO many old stuff including the boxes up in my boardgame room. Love it :)
I bought my double pack on the day of release. I think I even queued up with other teenage nerds.
I get strong Mighty Boosh vibes from the narrative and the music.
awesome xD that brought me much joy, thank you!
I am pleased ☺️
That song is Christmas #1 material.
😍
That army is absolutely gorgeous 😍
I gotta level with you, Matthew, great video first and foremost, but you have opened Pandora's box here and now the next logical step is to add a tiny speaker to your land raiders that could play that song, and the one with the functional opening front ramp seems like an ideal candidate at least lol
Keep up the quality content! Cheers!
That is a legendary project. Thanks mate.
@@Miniscape-wh40k I look forward to this now, and I would go so far as to suggest that the tinnier and more distorted the sound you can get out of that theoretical tiny speaker the better.....to maintain a mid-90s sound quality of course
The part with the makeup brush made me laugh.I did that exact thing.we’re divorced now.I’m pretty sure the two things are unconnected.well pretty sure anyways.
I'm pretty sure the Land Raider model was designed the same way as the Rhino, where the top and bottom halves are the same piece, just flipped over. I've got several OG Rhinos/Predators, but not the LR.
3:27 - 3:50 Wow! That's a nice paintjob. The weathering looks especially great!
Thank you 😊
Somewhere .. in a manufactorum, deep within the Imperium, a diligent servitor gathers and packs the requisitioned parts, humming to itself "landraider .. raider of land".
Nice addition to your collection, pleased the terminators are excited, who doesn't love a land raider. Great song, much better than those marching dirges of the imperial guard.
😅 I hope it becomes the imperium's earworm.
Wish I still had mine.
Edit, Proper Job
It's cute. It reminds me of a Metal Slug tank
Truth be told, I never cared much about the raider of land originally. As someone who got into the hobby like a year ago, and has never been interested in the universe previously, I just saw it as a "lol, big rhino".
When I found this channel, however, the land raider song got stuck into my head and I started singing the first few lines to my GF. Eventually, the meme song endeared us to the model and we gifted each other one of the new land raiders, one for my DG and one for my GF's 1000S.
We just built them and we are very excited to paint them!
That's fantastic. I hope you enjoy them ☺️
Can't wait for the original land speeder video, you could start an album😆
Good idea
Well, the singing alone is worth a thumbs up, nice work on getting the whole family involved. Great job on this little bit of entertaining silly fun. Thank you for putting these vids together, always end up with a smile on my face after watching them.
Thank you. I am glad I can spread some joy and you guy just encourage me 😅
I wanted one of these soooo bad
Wow!! Straight up nostalgia punch to the head!!
I love that wifey is willing to indulge you like that 😂😂😂
Great job looks fantastic
I rescued a quite beaten up last year for my 30k dark angel army. Fantastic design.
I think the design is horrible.. 😂❤ but i feel the retro vibes..
I still have my 2nd edition box in the attic, and one of these vehicles sitting painted like the box art, just without any highlights or shadows.. My 14 year old self thought it looked great.
Very cool, just subscribed, hello from Australia
Hello there 👋 thank you
That ending was family abuse for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice model and catchy song!
🥰
I'm going to be singing that song all day
What a lovely video, subscribed.
Thank you 😊
Very nice! Your Ultramarines tank collection continues to grow…
And there is another waiting 😁
God damn i need a Landraider ! Might have to add sone music to your song !
The only thing that this kit is missing is the Turn Signals.
Oh, what a flashback. #tsoalr 4 the win
I love Oldhammer. It was so silly and over the top.
It was 😁 that's why I love it
It's pretty over the top nowadays as well 😄
Well, that's next year's Eurovision sorted then!
A pleasant surprise in my recommendations - thank you.I've always loved the original RT land raider but, like yourself, was (just) too late to purchase one from GW. However, I did manage to score one on ebay a year or so ago for a very reasonable price. I've stripped it down an cleaned it up but can't bring myself to paint it (think drinking vintage wine - once you've popped the cork.....). I was looking to get the Forgeworld Proteus but held out when they announced the Horus Heresy one. Unfortunately, this left me disappointed as the profile was more akin to the 40k land raider than the RT one. This 3d print looks bang on so will definitely check it out (may be the push I need to get the printer!!!)
Thanks again 😊
I am glad I could entertain :)
Very cool, such an iconic model. Just as a tip from someone who does both scale models and tabletop: parts like handles, antennas and other thin bits are best replaced with metal way before painting; resin is waaaay to brittle. Handles can be bent from paperclips or similar, while guitar sting or stiff steel wire are good antenna material.
Thanks. I shall try that.
Matthew is my hero
Oh stop 😊 I'm just a guy
Got mine in the twin pack. Went halves with. A friend in 91
Love the song, great video 😂
Thank you 😊
Thank you for this presentation. I have ''liked'' and saved it as a reference for later. I have a couple of old Ebay Mk1's , well 1 1/2 really , that I have big plans for at some point in the far future ,probably around the year 40 K. (I guess I missed my previous 2000AD deadline ) .
The better one of the two I intend to do as ''box art'' so I hope you don't mind if I copy your homework. You model really looks nice .
Please do copy away. It would be my honour. Thank you.
I remember the land raider kit when it first came out 2 kits for 12.99 it came out a year after the 3 pack of rhinos came out for a tenner
I see miniscapes, I likee
That song had more hooks than a tackle box.
You found it catchy?
Say thanks to the Lady Wife for being such a good sport……… and lending you a brush
I will! Thanks
I loved those old early 90s models. The rules were easier, the Dark Angles were painted black, the primarchs were never the same between any two lores.
Ironically, this edition of the land raider actually looks tall enough for Terminators to climb into.
Don't ask me how a Dreadnought is supposed to enter and exit the vehicle though. 😄
Thumbs up and comment for the excellent song 👏😊
💪
😂😂😂😂 Loving the wife inject sections
Glad you like them!
Great job! one tip: next time you can try to use a thick foil as a core for the flag (you can bend it as you want flag to be) and then plait it or glue the decals/paper - it will be much more natural.
I considered it but I didn't have the desire to search for foil. Might try it next time. Next land raider...do I even need another land raider? 😅
Ok I'm triggered. I painted some of the Ultramarines chapter that was in White Dwarf while working at GW. Then the store I worked at, we painted an Ultramarines army for games nights... Then my manager gave it away to our area manager for a new store that was opening. I was gutted, it was a really nice looking army. It's because of that I've never been able to paint more Ultramarines 😂
Looks amazing! How come you couldn't get a land raider kit at your local shop back in the day?
Not sure. I imagine it was discontinued by the time I looked for one.
How sad 😢 great that you're living out your dreams now
I had 3, but sold one to my friend for 20€ last year because he deserved one. Rogue Trader models were affordable in the early 2010's.
I feel like every model should have a little Mechanicus work order included in the box now
Would be the dream
My gf calls the 1st-5th edition stuff MacDonalds toy and this one McRaider xD
🤣
"Land, raider" I'll keep an eye out on Spotify
That was great lol
It was nearly thirty years ago, but I want to say the actual kit had a tread gap problem.
Yeah I think it did
lol smooth watchin 🤙
i love that binary XD
😁
This is pretty good, this sizing goes in the opposite way for me though, I always wanted to make upsized vehicles and downsized marines so they could conceivably fit together. I hate that when you dismount marines the door goes from their knees to chest.
I think we need the recipe for Juice o‘ Kraken 😂
Nicked it off that Guy fella
