For a hot minute there I was preparing myself for the use of "Army Painter Fairy Dust" While I am obviously still waiting for that to happen, Slambo turned out Slammin!!!
I don't know why but "I'm gonna mash it with a rock" tickled me so much, I laughed so hard. Thank you for all your videos, they always make me smile :)
That one test-marine makes me imagine an entire Chapter, whose colour-scheme is designed specifically to be painful for enemies to look at. The marines themselves probably have special visors, to help them look at each other without any issues.
My travel agent keeps telling me there are no flights to Goobertown. How can that be? You make it seem like such a nice place to visit and relax! Did some Sisters of Battle in Army Painter pink metallic. Airbrush is definitely the way to lay it down.
Honestly of all the things it's your temporary basing technique to get it on a handle that amazed me the most! This idea is getting "borrowed" for sure
Hello. A tip i use. For round paving stones on a country road for example, i use lentils pressed into texture paste. Different sizes can be found and mixed if wanted. Love green Slambo conversion. All the best.
Highlights is what really makes Slambo pop. Once you get that extra layer of contrast, it really makes it look amazing. I think that's the step many end up missing.
I painted my first Chaos Warrior green from the Heroquest board game, based on some art in one of the quest books. The sickly green always stuck with me. I chose cracked dark green for an age old "Undivided" Chaos army colour back in the day. I theorised it was the process of folding warp stone into their armour to help it fuse with their flesh until they were inseparable. Maybe it would also attract the favour of the dark gods. Great video, Brent! Thanks for the memories.
I am a slave to green paints, so i may be biased - but this is easily the coolest looking individual chaos warrior i have ever seen, and by far the best Slambo - conversions all the way! I have a SLD SC box sat in a drawer and I have now decided they're going to be bright metalic green. cheers GTH.
the army looks sweet dude, awesome progress!! I just finished painting my first 500 point army and im super proud of it, thanks for giving me something fun to watch while i paint
Apparently the trick to catching a Goobertown video when it hits the tubes is living in Alaska... AKST for the win :) Nice vid on the classic chaos boi.
Thanks for sharing your Slambo-Experience! He looks great and fits awesome with the rest of the army. He'll be slambowing every enemy right in the face, I guess. I usually never comment, but I love your videos the most of all the tabletop videos on youtube. So, thank you for all that. Best greetings from Germany!
Nice video. Slambo came out really nice and I think you absolutely nailed the green. It was really interesting to watch how you achieved that color / effect. This was a very useful tutorial, thanks.
That is a great conversion - and totally awesome that you did it using only the kit, which means that folks don't need to buy multiples (or have an epic bits box handy). And the head and weapon switch allow the other model to be converted - and the nature of that one's pose means it will still look good to. Totally absconding with this idea when I pick up the kit.
Any time I see Chaos Warriors, it makes me want to pull out the good old Hero Quest and play the game that got me into the hobby in the first place, waaaay back in -redacted-. Thanks for the nostalgia!
Absolutely wonderful! Love seeing your army grow, it is great to see a project go beyond a few models or so. You are always a delight to watch, but I admit I am always eager to see more of your OWN projects. I love to see what excites you, and adding random bits and pieces to an army, or just messing around with old favorites like the Pump Wagon, I am glad I subscribed. Can't wait to see more, keep it coming!
I don't know much about the hobby but I love watching your videos! Watching you advance with your chaos guys keeps me motivated to take baby steps towards painting my goblins!
So excited. We are one year away from actually having a place of our own. One of my plans, inspired by your lovely videos, is to make a dedicated painting space. It is gonna be wonderful.
Lol Slambo!. I remember these times when you would get a full page in white dwarf devoted to the new chaos warriors. great photos of each all named and shit. haha. good stuff.
Mountain Dew Green, hmmmmm, got get me some...nice pop (yeah, pun damn it) Absolutely LOVE the groove-cutting tool btw...making one tonight for sure. Great addition, to the army and the playlist. Cheers, B! 🥂👍
I have just started my own first Warhammer conversions as well... Together with the models from the Pain and Piety Box I am starting a Sororitas army. And since I don't like the Repentia models i'm adding some giant Chainswords to some Witch Aelves!
Good work on that weapon conversion. Next step, finding yourself an old chaos warrior and painting him in these colors, so you have a continuum of Slambo!
I've got a good suggestion for your cobblestone bases! Sculpt individual stones about 3mm square-ish, then hand cobble each one onto a base with an epoxy coat underneath (so you can nudge them around properly). Once that sets up, mix some baking powder with superglue and scrape it into the gaps between the stones to make it look like dirt. Then paint! Basically, just build a miniature version of a real cobblestone road. Can't get more real than that. Might just take longer than the entire rest of the mini. Okay, maybe not a great idea. But probably looks pretty good!
@@GoobertownHobbies I'm just getting in to the hobby, but I'm enjoying just building, and exploring customizing models and paint schemes. Seems like building a cobblestone base from scratch might be relaxing to do once after a long week of work. Just sort of lose myself in the little things for a bit.
awesome thanks for the list of products you use! It looks like it is missing the one I'm looking for ;p your super sharp flat snips. got cut model off the base
my box arrived 2 days ago, cant wait to get them all painted up, your color scheme is pretty awesome but i guess ill just give mine different ones, since im not so much about playing with a perfected army but painting them
That sanding stick! I was sure you have a chromatic aberration filter on in that shot, what a funny effect at that angle. Lovely, chill video as always, Brent. :)
@@GoobertownHobbies just messing up marines for a test paint has gone against my OCD/Must Be Perfect protocol in the past. You have opened my eyes! Thanks again. 😊
Not ever playing the games or painting the minis, I'd never heard of Slambo before, but you've made me a fan. I think it was the Mt Dew comment. LOL Thanks for making this awesome video & I'm looking forward to all the cool videos to come.
For the green: You could add a bit of blue or turquoise (or even incubi darkness) to make a green similar to the slambo one and use it in the darkest areas, as I did for mine.
Right? I missed the opportunity to pick up Sgt. Ripper Jackson by 2 hours, and $35 was already basically extortion... now I'd have to pay twice that to pick one up on ebay. So frustrating.
@@YanniCooper The other option is to hold your nose and pay a quarter or half the price to someone overseas and hope for the best. 🤷♂️ I understand the reason why Sgt. Ripper Jackson retailed at $35+, being HIPS plastic, but Slambo was resin and went for about $10 less.
@@Condottiero_Magno I did manage to snag a Slambo, and pretty sure he was $35... that's pretty much GW's "standard price" for limited edition characters.
@@YanniCooper From a GW store or a third party and in USD? I picked mine up for $25 + sales tax from a then recently opened Warhammer store and I remember, as around then the first General's Handbook was $25 + sales tax too.

So for cobblestones, I have a strip of cobblestone lane I bought from a christmas village display. I roll that over my modeling clay and boom cobblestone texture.
Great job Brent! My conversion was similar to yours except I didn't swap the head. I still blame you and Casey for talking about SLAMBO and your StD army, now I have a Warcry warband based around this set!
I just want to share with you all my Slambo story. I ordered the redesign, but then literally a day later it went OOP and my retailer didn't have a chance to get a hold of it. Shame, cause I love this big boy.
For a good cobblestone, go to your hardware store and buy micro pebbles. They're normally used for playgrounds and making walkways with concrete. But yeah, make box and cover the bottom by adding glue then pouring the pebbles in it and shaking it. let it dry and pour out the loose extras. After, spray it with mould release in at least 3 layers due to porosity. Then pour in 2 part epoxy. You've just made a stamp similar to your row stamp you used for the bricks.

Looks great Brent! Your painting gets better with every video ☺ I'm also a fan of limited kit conversions (mostly to keep costs down), though I think it would have been reasonable to use the start collecting set too as you'd assume most Chaos fans would have it. But he came up really nice regardless.
SLAMBO!!!!! What a fun conversion for a great army. Love the orange/ yellow colour scheme and the green armour is great! Good job Brent!
Slambo!!!!! :-) Thanks Duncan!
slambo new model coming out in 2022 april fools
Slambo looks like he belongs in a Monster Energy commercial, and that's a good thing!
Radical dude!
You’re a good thing.
It’s like the chaos Archenemy of the Bud Knight
4:51 awesome noise marine!
Any kind of Slambo conversation is a good conversation!
I've had an idea to do a loyalist slambo for my space sharks...
Beautiful conversion. Thanks for another great video!
Nothing better to start my day than some Goober in the morning, while I drink my coffee :)
Everyone needs more Slambo in their life. And the color choices for this army are fantastic
For a hot minute there I was preparing myself for the use of "Army Painter Fairy Dust" While I am obviously still waiting for that to happen, Slambo turned out Slammin!!!
not this time....

Hehehe, the rock is the key bit! :-)
No matter how many times I look at that mini it just looks like the cape's corpse hand is copping a feel from beyond the grave...
#slambo
As it should.
Couldn't sleep, thanks for the company while painting!
Goober should be doing voice overs on bedtime stories. Such a unique warm rich voice man.
Goober on the calm app when?
I'd listen to hours of him reading lore
ASMR for nerds
