Have you have ever thought about using a cheap battery powered toothbrush to clean off paint? Might be faster for you. Less wear and tear on your wrists too.
regarding basing for necromunda, a simple layer of wire mesh (car bodywork mesh works well) cut to cover a portion of the base, works well for a very simple bit of detailing.. (add some flock/gravel around the thing, and it almost looks like ruined/filthy/overgrown metal grating that you might see as flooring inside a hive.
I came down with COVID from a trip to DC on Thursday, and an EBay Mini Rescue is just what the doctor ordered for 100% distraction. Thanks for the quality content again, Casey. Keep on rockin’!
From the look of the heavy stubber and the M16 the sergeant carries, I think someone at GW thought it would be cool if the Van saar were Rhodeisian. (The Heavy stubber looks like the Rhodeisian FAL)
Possible, but the British Army used the FAL as well, and given that the SAS/SBS also used M16 type rifles, perhaps the inspiration came more from the Falklands War blended with Aliens since there's a whiff of Smartgun and Pulse Rifle there as well? Rhodeyboos weren't really that common back in 1990s Britain but loads of 10th/15th anniversary documentaries about the Falklands were. Just feels to me that in the land of the Teaboo, perhaps Britannia rules the waves....
@@eBayMiniatureRescues yeah mate that’s the one! Great to hear the stories from the people who were creating these miniatures that we know and love from back in the day!
I can confirm that in 2024, I'm using nearly 30 year old miniatures in my Goliath gang for a campaign I'm playing with 7 other players. A nice combination of those chunky monopose plastic minis and some older metal minis for Leader, Champion and Juves. These Van Saar models look absolutely amazing though and definitely have me considering a second gang!
I remember even back in the 90's thinking that it was weird that the Necromunda models had the normal Goblin Green bases. I believe they had a throwaway line in one of the books that's 'maybe some abandoned hab domes in the hive still have grass'.
I used to love this channel’s content, you were one of those I have loved to watch and learn from. You have changed so much, I know burnout and just being tired from life; I’m not sure that’s it though. I cannot see inside your heart or mind from a video. I can only wonder what the cause of the change is. What is the truth of the change I can see in you? Is it maturity that comes with the responsibility of a child? Is it boredom of feeling trapped or limited? Whatever it is, but It is showing in the content. I could venture a guess that it may be the set of self imposed limits you tell yourself? My response would be to tell You; You have inspired me and driven me to greatness in my love for this hobby. I am not the only one I would bet, probably 10’s of thousands. Find your energy, push your skills, do not limit yourself and most importantly find that intense desire to enjoy and have fun and rock this channel to a new level. I wish this platform would allow for more interaction. I would show a pic or two showing my rescues, mods, build and paints. All of which your channel nurtured and inspired. Thank you I am forever great-full… ROCK ON!!!
I appreciate this comment, and I haven't really talked about my personal life too much on the channel, but in all honesty, things have been tough for a while now. Not specifically with making content, although there are challenges in that every time I go to film, but I've been dealing with some heavy life stuff that I can also tell creeps into how I make content. It's something I am trying very hard to get through but life is life and what comes out is just a reflection of that. I'm grateful that you have been around and enjoying the content, and hopefully, I can keep things going and get back on track with more of the older style. I still enjoy this hobby very much and making videos that I find interesting and fun to share is something that I don't see myself stopping anytime soon. All that being said, there will come a time in the near future where I will be talking about some of the things I have been working on outside of videos, some really cool stuff that I am beyond excited to share :)
It's weird to see Necromunda announced like this. I have it from way back then, and I also have all the gang boxes etc. some even still sealed in. They are sitting on a shelf and seeing them here in this video makes me feel old, lol ... Nice vid though!
That's awesome! Anything to get that creativity going and get models on the table. Cardboard standees are great for filling out armies and trying things out :)
This should be a fun vid, i just got my first ever game of Necromunda on Friday! What a crazy game. So many rules but so many silly things that can happen too!
ca. 6:35 : On the other Hand: If you know the code, you could easyly replace most of the Paints with their modern Counterparts (or one of the two retroline Paintsuppliers like Coat D'Arms or Warcolour.) Chaos Black was a regular Black, Chainmail is still around as a game colour from Vallejo. (Even in their new Lineup.) Skull White was just a regular White. Emerald Green is often refered to as Jade Green nowadays. Ultramarine Blue is exactly what it sounds like in the Art Surply Section. Ork Flesh Wash was a regular green Wash. Sunburst Yellow is a regular Yellow. Bronzed Flesh might get Problematic nowadays. There was an equivalent in the old Citadel Game Colour Range, but it was rationalised. Here your only chance might be a Nostalgic Paint line at the Moment. And Flesh Wash hasn't been mixed up a lot over the Years. Just get Reikland Flesh Shade.
Sold my complete necromunda collection about 5 years ago now. Still miss em but needs must. Anyhow I had these guys boxed metal and never painted and another set painted by me as val Tec survivors in the blue jump suits with the yellow stripe
Absolutely! Here is the first video in the series if you haven't seen it. I'm always on the lookout for more to add to the base game :) th-cam.com/video/2ey2yRzfCDA/w-d-xo.html
very nice result. I'm guessing the ones with the hardest skin to paint where the two Juves as the where usually sculpted to be more youthful so less defined line work . Van Saar are my fave gang. as they have that high-tech look , you should see if you can get the later metal confrontation (I think that's what it got renamed) gang mini's they still have the same aesthetic as the 95 line but with the addition of all the weapon options being on separate hands so you could equip them accordingly , I'm pretty sure all the main gangs from the game and the expansion outlanders got this update.
Thanks! Yeah some of the softer faces were hard to pull out details on, the color at least works, but there were some where the heads had weird proportions too, so it was kind of a mixed bag. Good old hand sculpting! Still, I like them, they feel right for when they came out :)
Ah the memories. The Van Saar were my first gang. Used to have a lot of gangs for the original Necromunda. Now not a lot of rhem are left. I do have my Chaos Coven, my Ratskin Renegades, some plastic box set Orlock and Goliaths. Maybe a few other strays. But I do have my original box, the terrain, and the books for the game. And I can play it or the new game.
I bought two complete games back in the day (one was half off clearance). I gave away a lot of the plastic minis to other people who wanted to try to game. We had a fairly robust group for a while in the mid-90s.
I have at least a double set of the bulkheads and cardstock terrain by now. Bought extra bulkheads here and there. Plus I have files where I can print extra bulkheads now too.
Van saar were alright, bit too technophile for me though... Delaque on the other hand, skinheads in trenchcoats... just add hats to get 40k based underhive westerns
Dang, you're going to shame me into finally finishing off my Escher and Adeptus Arbites gangs from the same era. They're around 80-90% complete. I do still have my 3 sets of Necromunda terrain though.
I’ve been buying AOS minis from eBay for about a month now. The “painted” ones are way more than the plain grey…A lot of the painted ones say pro painted and are far from it. What searches are you looking for?
Yeah, Pro Painted is a weird thing on eBay. It also depends on the models you are looking into. The Old World release has made some AOS models go up in price, so that could be it right now, but check this out and hopefully it will help. "eBay searches" is about a minute into the video th-cam.com/video/ai0EmbV4ZFY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jndLSDOymd0wSspA
I always find it funny when North Americans say "Necromunda". The way you pronounce the 'u' really reminds me that it's just school Latin (or maybe High Gothic) for "Death world"
I relate to the squishy face angle! I have an older Reaper Mini Pathfinder elven wizard on deck for painting next, and, well...his face looks kinda wonky. Not nearly as pretty as you associate with elves, for sure. Older minis are definitely odd in that realm.
Some of the old elves are super weird even in the GW line. Really angular and they paint up more like aliens than elves. A unique look for sure, but that old hand sculpted stuff can be super hit or miss.
Out of curiosity, would you be interested in 2 Doom Slayer paint themed Imperial Knights? Gonna be moving out of the country in a month or two and I don't think they'd survive the trip in the cargo hold. They could use a good re-basing or, hell, you can strip 'em down if you want.
@@eBayMiniatureRescues Good to hear, just need to get them out of the moving box.....and find your email EDIT: Found it, just need to get the girls out then.
@@zaynevanday142 I need to do the same thing, I am missing the army book from the original box. I've seen them floating around though, and they are available online, but the actual book would be more fun to have.
OK but Casey, unless I missed it, you didn't comment on their weird toe-shoes? WHAT IS UP with that? Did they go through secret toe-shoe training with Dante? :P I always chuckle when I see that, both classic and super silly.

I mean, they aren't a vape company and I wouldn't do an ad for a vape company. It's basically an essential oil stick. The point of it is to replace the hand to mouth habbit of things like vaping, and if that helps someone stop then great. I'm sure there are less expensive simpler ways to do that, but it is what it is. Personally, I have found it helpful because I struggle with that exact issue. If I can see a use case then someone else might be able to benefit from that as well.

Can i point out there are a few of us 'old timers' still around.
More than a few I'll wager. I have a mint sealed box of these Van Saars I'm going to put on eBay soon.
Right I bought those when they were new. Lol
I'm nearly fifty and remember when Necromunda came out, I was a GW employee at the time.
Almost 60. Still play 40K every once in a while.
lol, for sure, it's just crazy to me that I started in the hobby so long ago. Saying 25+ year old minis is just insane to hear out loud.
Necromunda really does have some of the best minis out there. My personal favourite was the Escher Gang from the 90s.
The Escher gang range is definitely full of bad ass miniatures.
Jes Goodwin was the GOAT. His sculpts were incredible. @@ironbomb6753
Retro Necromunda is a treasure trove of fun over-the-top sculpts. Love this rescue!
regarding basing for necromunda, a simple layer of wire mesh (car bodywork mesh works well) cut to cover a portion of the base, works well for a very simple bit of detailing.. (add some flock/gravel around the thing, and it almost looks like ruined/filthy/overgrown metal grating that you might see as flooring inside a hive.
yeah that sounds great!
@@eBayMiniatureRescues oh, Haven't forgotten it Casey, that maurauder giant will make it's way to you sometime. (hopefully soon)
@@davidaward82 oh awesome! very much looking forward to it :)
Some real glute definition you got on those guys
Bottle-opening Buttocks.
Gotta give attention to those glutes!
The Van Saar gang is known across Necromunda for their bakeries, because dang look at all that cake.
It hadn't occurred to me before (despite being around when these minis we released) that Van Saar wear the Stillsuits from David Lynch's Dune.
I don't know that there is anything official on that, but man do they look like stillsuits! Pretty cool inspiration for sure!
Love the hazard stripes on the chainsword. That's 90's GW AF 👍
That was supposed to be a power sword. I got it from a Space Marine plastic weapons sprue.
I came down with COVID from a trip to DC on Thursday, and an EBay Mini Rescue is just what the doctor ordered for 100% distraction. Thanks for the quality content again, Casey. Keep on rockin’!
You knocked it out of the park! Great transformation that these minis deserved.
I wish GW would rerelease these models, even as some sort of print-on-demand. The fremen still-suit inspired sculpt was great.
They have done POD for metal Blood Bowl minis from the 90's. Maybe we'll see some of these one day.
You never know, they do the made to order stuff from time to time.
From the look of the heavy stubber and the M16 the sergeant carries,
I think someone at GW thought it would be cool if the Van saar were Rhodeisian.
(The Heavy stubber looks like the Rhodeisian FAL)
I never thought of that. That's cool!
Possible, but the British Army used the FAL as well, and given that the SAS/SBS also used M16 type rifles, perhaps the inspiration came more from the Falklands War blended with Aliens since there's a whiff of Smartgun and Pulse Rifle there as well?

Just feels to me that in the land of the Teaboo, perhaps Britannia rules the waves....
If they were Rhodesian would that not require them to be wearing short shorts
Necromunda is such a great game! The new version makes it even better! Great job on those Van Saar!
I really like Gary Morley’s sculpts, seen him on a pod cast once before too and he seems a really nice bloke
There's a great interview on the Painting Phase channel with Peachy, super long too!

I do so love the minis from what I was getting into games workshop. sure some of the faces can be a bit "squishy" but that just adds character
it does add character and I still really like the way they look, even some of the weirder squishy guys :)

Necromunda and Mordheim are my absolute favorite skirmish games in my 35+ years of gaming.
Yep... That's my world, right there.
I've got most of the minis in the line. Great Game!
Oooh, looking forward to this - I also have these gifted to me from a friend. Love those figures.
I really liked the music choice. Fits the theme of the minis.
It's weird to see Necromunda announced like this. I have it from way back then, and I also have all the gang boxes etc. some even still sealed in. They are sitting on a shelf and seeing them here in this video makes me feel old, lol ... Nice vid though!
Yay Munda!..I'm a money guy not a moony guy, don't judge🤭, as in necromunda not necromoonda. However you say it I'm glad you're taking the dive.
I can still remember getting a plastic Orlock ganger on the front of White Dwarf.
My brother has started playing. He has built his own cardboard cut outs. I'm gonna get him some real minis later this year.
That's awesome! Anything to get that creativity going and get models on the table. Cardboard standees are great for filling out armies and trying things out :)
