I finally completed my goal of having at least one tutorial on my channel for each of the 9 armies currently in The Old World! I will of course be doing more for each army, but I'll need you to guide me towards what you want to see! Warriors of Chaos have never been my top pick, but as I want to have a playable force for battle reports for you guys, I decided to come up with a nice easy scheme for myself to knock them out fast! You can always add more to it if you like, or keep things simple for infantry and spend more time on the main characters!
The Old World playlist:
• Old World Goodness
Basing scheme:
AK Terrain Dark Earth texture paste
Ryza Rust (dry) brush
Screaming Skull (layer) dry brush

Theres too many 40k channels and youre doing a great job covering the old world in general
Thanks so much man, that really helps to hear!
Great work Andy. Would love to see the unit painting challenge that you mentioned for the Chaos Warrior unit! 😀
Ye I mite just do it.
Happy to see you doing the Warriors of Chaos like you had mentioned you wanted to. Keep up the Old World!
Oh I will
Indeed be doing more and more old world.
Happy for more Old World contents!
Very happy to keep going!
Enjoying all the Old World content.
Glad to hear
More Old World content! I'm loving all the videos you've been putting out.
You will not be disappointed.
Can't wait to see the whole unit painted, love to watch 24hr/can I paint in such time challenges.
Yeah I might look at doing that for some army for the old world!
This is a good scheme. It's surprisingly hard to find warriors of chaos painting videos. I'm gutted that I sold 30 of mine years back (the really old plastic hunchback models) and now wish I hadn't!
Ye I’ve gotten rid of a few bits I wished I hadn’t.
Man the Age of Sigmar CW looks SO GOOD when they are ranked up together on square bases. I had forgotten how cool formation-lines were. Especially with shields on the models!
If you really don't want to use the Marauders models, I saw a guy online who had converted the Untamed Beasts from Age of Sigmar into Marauders by giving them shields and switching up some weapons. They looked AWESOME, and I'm sure you could use them as a base too to make your own take on the Marauders. I would personally love to see you convert that!
Yep there are a few warcry gangs that would word for sure. M
@@MediocreHobbies No matter what you choose, I'm excited to see you make some!
Loving the old world content! This is exactly what I’m now going to do to paint my warriors!! Thankyou!
Glad I could help pal.
I’m here for Old World, Orcs & square basing AoS product. But I first found your channel when you were painting Kruleboyz and have been hooked ever since. Those new 40k Kroots look like a good project for you.
An OG fan. Thank you so much for all the support.
Really enjoying the Old World content! That's a nice looking Warrior of Chaos. Reminds me of the old 6th edition ones they did for the Storm Of Chaos campaign
Cheers pal.
Old world is the only content i have any interest in aonim glad you're finding old world vids are doing well!
For the old world algorithm! Chaos Giant would be class!
Ye he will be a fun one for sure.
I’m here for pretty much old world, only found your channel the other day and working my way through your old world content. I’ve fallen out of love with 40k over the years and am super hyped and refreshed for old world
You feel the same as me so.
I will continue to watch and enjoy anything other than 40k!
Haha awesome to hesr
Bring on the unit challenge!!
I really love that method for flayed flesh, which makes me want to build and paint a new unit of Flayed-Ones for my Necrons. I'll need to grab a pot of Plaguebearer Flesh, too.
The Darkoath Savages would make a great Marauder unit if you stick with an unaligned theme. Other Warcry warbands would work for God dedicated units.
I was thinking the same.
That was very helpful, I bought the pack a while back & have been staring at them for a year now. Now they're built & need paint. So thank you for that.
Wife was walking past while I was watching this. She said, "This is chaos, right? Is that cape dead or is it still alive?" (I married well...)
Not sure about seeing a whole army, but I would love to see this whole unit doesn't, please. Looks good, keep up the good work!!!
Hahaha you for sure made the right choice.
I'm quite sure Khorne must have made a typo when writing ' Marital Prowess' as a competency in the last job description, yet here you are.
Loving that almost brass tone on the guilleman flesh over the Leadbelcher! Might give that a try or brass armour trims on my warriors.
Holy cow would I love to watch you paint a whole unit of these guys! Love the fantasy content!
Yeah a unit painting would be good!
Brilliant a really inspirational guide on the Old World really liking these videos, especially using the AOS in the Old World. I would like to see the other 15 being painted up...
I shall make it happen.
Nice job on this one Andy, I look forward to seeing one of the knights done.
Me to pal. I think there Gonna look ace.
Definitely want to see the whole unit. This video inspired me to start a Chaos Army. Great video!!
Oh wow that’s cool! Hope you enjoy it!
Great stuff here!! Iv really been enjoying yours and others Old World content and am slowly coming around to it, as I originally didnt care for it. Funny enough iv actually been considering Slaves to Darkness recently. The aesthetic has really been growing on me and seeing these Warriors of chaos may actually be a thought as well. I have 2 full armies for AoS, and a few small starts to other armies between warcry and underworlds combined, so I could go with these guys to start Old Worlds if I come around to them more.
That’s ace pal. Hope you jump on board. The game is great and needs as many players as possible.
One thing I absolutely love about you is that you use paints that I've already have. Not sure if it's a positive or negative point, but it's nice for me.
Cheers man, I do try to keep to one range as much as possible for these videos so glad it’s helpful!
@@MediocreHobbies my wife says that I got too many paints haha
This is fantastic! I was just about to paint one of these fellows who has recently taken up residence under Be’lakors toenails.
Nice. Good theme for the army.
One of my favorite army in the “old world”. Except for the Beastmen. So just thanks for vid! 🔥
Anytime pal.
Loving the content for old world and timer video is great idea, peachy did it for new cadians 122nd and it genuinely inspired me to grab a cadian army and see if I could match. I'd do the same on this im sure as your style is very genuine,intuitive and relaxing/inspiring!
That’s very kind pal. Thank you.
Very cool paintjob. Please continue with ToW content
Will do! Thanks man!
wow, simply fantastic.
Many thanks!
looking forward to seeing your wood elf paint scheme, I've gotta repaint and rebase my whole army and would love to see how you paint yours
Well as soon as I get my hands on some tricky elf’s I will get stuck in. Rite now it’s proving hard.
I know it doesn’t come up very often, but I would do a base coat of gray or white before applying the contrast skin tone, or the lizard skin in other cases. I still think there was too much of a metallic sheen even though you layered it up. I think there should be a stark difference between the middle of the armour and the fabric, so by priming it all in leadbelcher, you lose that divide.
As for the chaos undivided armor, you could do a watered down blue, green, red, etc on various units, to give them a slight tinge in one direction or another.
I know this doesn’t really make it speed painting as much but I think that would add more visual interest when you’re looking at rows of them.
I get that. And you are correct. But as it’s for me to speed paint the whole army I did it this way.
Fab vid, wish id done this scheme for mine now! Dead skin looks good too.
Thanks man glad you liked it!
YES. I was looking forward to Chaos Warriors. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Square Bases! Lol top job mate.
Cheers.
Looks great. Nice simple scheme that you could easily customize by changing a color here or there. Looks like I need to get some square bases for the AoS chaos guys I've had in a box for way too long.
I think you do pal. Get stuck in.
Always happy for old world content
Awesome!
After watching your build video I have been so tempted to do an army of these
What’s stopping you pal. Go for it.
There's great options for chaos warriros that have the marks of various gods for khorne, nurgle and slaanesh from each of their AoS lines and all the warcry warbands + AoS chaos ranges gives you a huge range of options for highly themed marauders.
It’s true. There range of models is massive.
looks good and would work just as well in AoS, seeing it on a knight would be cool to see...great video
I would like to do a knight for sure.
Keep em coming Andy - see you in Lenton.
Did you get a ticket pal? Make sure you stop by and say hello.
@@MediocreHobbies I will- I’m running a couple of Necrosphinx .. the paint scheme might seem oddly familiar 😉
For a Slaanshe army I could see doing the cape with a thinned down purple over the silver, and then highlighting up with a wet pallet mix of pink and purple/pink color shifting paint.
Oh for sure.
Cracking job mate! Keep knocking out great content!
Thanks! Will do!
Love that scenery kit!
It will probably be a video soon!
Fantastic work as always. Hahaha, you are really tempting us to fall to the Dark Gods. I would love to see your take on the Marauders, I agree the models have aged a lot so I would love to see what you would use instead.
Ye I’m still in the planning stage there. But I want it it be cool.
Oooh I am really intrigued for what you come up with. @@MediocreHobbies
I'd love to see your bulk painting of Chaos Warriors, and the same for the Chaos Knights!
Really nice. I think a stopwatch, paint the whole unit, challenge would be good fun.
I’ll try work something out!
loved it, been struggling for a scheme for my S2D army. I shall be stopping after the wash though 🤣
Totally fair 😂 glad you liked it!
Great miniature! My only advice would be to make a uniform finish with some kind of varnish. The shiny contrast paint on the cape really stands out for me, so perhaps just hit the cape with some lahmian medium or equivalent. I love the putrid flesh bit thawing out on his back, perhaps a candidate for Nurgle? 🤔
Perhaps. And yes an all over varnish across the squad after would be a great choice.
Looks good, great scheme to copy. A video showing you painting up the unit as it would be great to see what you can achieve and how long it takes.
Working on doing something soon!
Looking good! Would love to see a batch paint video of the unit!
Working on something soon!
My favorite army!
Good taste.
I'd love to see the full regiment painted, that is a lovely and easy scheme, but oddly enough...I'd wanna add Black and Yellow Hazards somewhere LOL
Hahahhhaa I wonder why.
Love it - keep the old world content comming :)
Fun fact: Warriors og Chaos has Heavy Armour, not Full Plate, even the Knights are limited to Heavy Armour. Units of Chosen can buy an uppgrade to Full Plate tho.
Ah that makes more sense. Cheers pal.
would love to see how you would do lizard capes as i am lacking motivation on doing those
I can do that.
Old world content equals old world comment. Great to see all the supported armies get a figure…on to the legacy factions next? 🤔😊 Also, would love to see if you can get the unit done in a day.👍
Yes indeed I will be doing all legacy armies soon.
Human skin is translucent and the pinkish hue comes from the blood. If you have callouses on your foot or hand just slice one off with a blade. That's the actual color of flayed skin. As it spoils it becomes harder, gets burnt in the sun. However, spoiled / necrotic skin is actually more blue and black in tone. Also it has an orange peel texture then. :) Ask me how I know.
Necrotic flesh is also blueish black, maybe a little green on the surface. However, green is more of a puss and it needs living flesh to create it (it's spoiled muscle fluids). :)
Just a note from my own experiences. I really do like your warrior's look, just like with your other Old World stuff. :)
That's the dilemma of painting what things actually look like, vs what everybody expects them to look like.
Ye exactly what the other comment or said. It’s hard to paint certain things certain ways. Gotta great reality sometime a
@@MediocreHobbies This reminds me... The King you painted? That skin? Spot on. I had terminal cancer back in the day and it lead to really nasty stays at the hospital. Been through a meatgrinder. Gave me nice flashbacks in a good way. You absolutely nailed it. Pale skin, very poor circulation, bits of inflammation here and there where there's a little inflammation. :) Sorry I've forgotten to give you the kudos for that.
I’m so happy to see you doing TOW - I have no interest in AoS and 10th edition 40k has absolutely killed my desire to even look at 40k right now so I’m delighted that you’re doing so much TOW stuff and not really touching those other two.
I do still love your Horus Heresy content too if you want to do some stuff with that!
I have plans for heresy don’t worry. And god yes so so much old world.
Would love to see a full unit painted in one go
I shall plan it.
Old world content is awesome, even when I´m waiting strong that Lord of the Rings videos. I understand that they have less views for sure. So keep going with all the other amazing stuff!
Cheers pal. And they will return don’t worry about that.
Thank you🙂
You're welcome 😊
11:21 Ironically Chaos Warriors do not have Full Plate in TOW. Only Chosen do. Super small thing just thought it was funny.
Yep. Just looks that way.
Very nice
Thanks
How many chaos warriors do you think you'll need in a 2000 point army? Although the new AoS sculpts are gorgeous they certainly arent cheap.
That is true. And I’m not sure to be honest. Haven’t made a list yet.
Any recommendations for the fur that so many of the sculpts have on their trim?
Gor grunta contrast is a good start.
Thanks for another great video Andy! I know I tended to disregard warriors of chaos as being sort of psycho Vikings on steroids, and why bother with that when you could have beastmen or orks? But this is a really cool paint job, and I'd love to see a completed unit!
I need to see a complete unit as well. It’s in my head now.
That unit will look amazing when its finished. Any chance we could see the Knights done?
I’m sure we can arrange that.
Neat very neat
Glad you think so!
How do you get the brush onto the inside of the cloak? A lot of minis, especially the Sisters of Battle, have impossible-to-reach robes and cloaks I can never get into.
My theory is if you can’t get a brush in to paint it, nobody is going to be looking there anyway 😄 I just leave areas like that in shadow as they would be anyway!
Could you please share the texture paste you are using for the base? Looks pretty good!
It's in the description!
I would love to see you convert the deathwing knights into black templars
Read my mind. Watch this space. I may have a few surprises for you.
AoS bloodreavers could work for marauders, though they are little khorne-y.
Bring out the barney lizardmen!
No that’s not a bad idea at all.
What are you using for your bases? They don’t look like the GW plastic bases.
Laser cut mdf bases! I do these myself but you can get them online for pretty cheap!
Have you covered how you base your models? I am looking for a Q and easy process. Thanks!
Yes I have in the Baron on Pegasus video and it’s in the description of this idea as well 😊
@@MediocreHobbies tysm, great content
Tzeentch Arcanites could make for a strong god specific Marauder option.
Not wrong there.
You are the sole reason I am still hyped for the Old World. GW is sadly not delivering imo
Glad you’re enjoying my videos!
Really hope you do something with Ogre Kingdoms
Oh they were my first warhammer army so I will 100% be doing videos on them.
@@MediocreHobbies,Awesome I'm going to be using the Mantic Ogres for mine since the club I go to really doesn't care about who made the figs as long as people are playing the game.
Much easier and nicer to base coat it super bright and then shade it dark
I don’t find that to be the case when I paint but each to there own.
I don't know how viable this could be as a video idea but what about a review of the multiple available 3rd party 3d printable chaos dwarf options? Out of all the legacy factions I think theirs was among the best made so there's probably going to be a lot of people looking for models
Yeah I’ll 100% be printing a chaos dwarf army so a review is a great idea! Let me have a think!
Did you buy the bases mate?
I laser cut them myself from mdf!
I'd like to see how a knight looks and the timed video sounds like fun... for us obviously, not for you 😂
I really do want to do both videos.
Not a fan of the metallic undercoat for the non-metallic areas that you're using contrast paints on. Even when layering opaque paints on top you end up with reflective surfaces in the recesses. Considering the simplicity of the shapes of the non-metallic areas (cloak, straps, skin, etc.) it would probably be better to simply apply an opaque base coat to all of those areas (red for the cloak, brown for the leather, etc.) You can even use the same wash, as red, flesh tones and brown can all very easily be washed with an umber wash, such as Contrast Darkoath Flesh. For added simplicity, you can hit the entire model, including the metal parts, with Darkoath Flesh to give the armor a subdued brown tinge, which would give the armor some wear and definition, which would really bring out the effect of the metallic highlight at the end.
So the process would be:
-Prime black
-Zenithal metallic
-Block in non-metallics (brown, red, flesh)
-Coat entire model evenly with Darkoath Flesh
-Highlight where necessary
Great idea!
nice
Thanks
"The worst of the worst" "Must be stopped at all costs"
Sounds like Imperial propaganda.
Great vid and paint job
Hahahaha maybe a little. I’m an imperial Ayer through and Through.
"These guys are the worst of the worst." Completely ignores the fact that High Elves exist! :) Also, yes, of course, paint the whole unit. Join the Ruinous Powers!
Hahhaha I’m sensing a bit of bias
MORE OLD WAAAAAAAGHLD
Yes sir.
Tbh I do miss your 40k stuff. But with no new models then why not do old world. I support you either way buddy
Well when gw drops some
More 40K I will be rite back into it. Rite now it’s kinda slim pickings.
@@MediocreHobbies hoping to see the macharius tank you got from eBay at some point, especially as it’s unavailable to buy
@@Toshiba1976 ye that’s going to be a good one. Just need to find enough of something to strip it safely.
1,800,456 days of asking for some lizard men content 😢 😊 thanks.
HahahHa don’t panic it will be soon.
