THE RED DREAD

- The follow up video to "DREAD FALL" - follow our friend as they journey into enemy territory, making all sorts of friends along the way. Learn what it is they are up against, and the ramifications of failure within this mysterious hive-city.
This took way longer than I anticipated, some shots took a day, whilst others took months. But mostly it took time as I was working in-between work so I could pay for my debilitating coffee addiction.
I would love to make one more video to wrap up this little adventure, a final showdown if you will!
If you are so interested in seeing said future video, please support me by signing up for my Patreon, or sharing and commenting on the video, checking my Instagram for updates, and all the other things people say at this part of the text.

That was absolutely phenomenal. The enemy soldiers, the Hive, the way the shield blocked the missile, the crazy monster. All of it was just fantastic!
Makes me curious about how the lore keeps saying Void Shields don't deflect things, but open portals to The Warp to absorb the damage.
This would change so many things about how weapons interact with them! You could fire the most obscenely powerful weapon in the galaxy, but if the impact point is small and brief even nuclear weapons would take but an instant of portal opening to swallow whole, and detonate uselessly in The Warp while taxing the shield no more than a mundane projectile of equal size would.
Presumably weapons have since been engineered with this effect now, and the missile might detect the void shield opening such a portal and then trigger immediately so that the shield is forced to absorb the entire explosion measuring hundreds of meters for dozens of seconds and not just a split second of a five meter portal.
Impactors like Tau Railguns would be the most impacted by this as their projectiles are tiny and their velocity great, barely reuiring a tenth of a second and a portal the size of your hand. Maybe large railguns meant for anti-voidshield work have some kind of trigger inside that shatters the projectile like a shotgun blast shortly before impact when it detects the void shield, to force it to expend more energy over a wider area?
@@Hust91 Void shields redirect the impact into the warp but it can only transfer so much at once.
The tau railguns that are used against titans are normally installed on their space ships. It´s an obscene level of firepower that has to be brought to bear in order to breach through a void shield in one go. Most common strategy is to maintain pressure via rapidfire forcing the void shield generator to overload. Tau can breach a void shield but if the void shields are layered (aka multiple shields)... yeah that´s when they are in deep sh*t
@@Darknessblade4me What does it mean to redirect "the impact"?
If they're opening portals to the warp, then it seems the limitation would be how big a portal, and how long it's open, not how much goes through it.
A railgun shell traveling right below the speed of light would still only require a miniscule portal for a miniscule amount of time (not counting atmosphere effects), requiring less power from the void shield than a shot from a Leman Russ.
And I think the Manta also has anti-titan railguns? You'd essentially need specialized railgun ammunition for penetrating void shields because while mc2 a *terrifying amount of E, it doesn't matter if it's all concentrated to hit a demon in another universe rather than what you were aiming for.
Essentially, a lore-accurate void shield would be very, very different from the classical depictions of energy shields because small and fast projectiles would be very ineffective against it.
Was kinda cool. But really a Hive city is like every nation on modern Earth piled on top of eachother. Even if you have amazing void shields, you would expect a hurricane of AA missiles, flak artillery, air superiority fighters and ground air defenses fending off a singular attacker like that. Probably intercepting it an entire continent distant before it came close.
@@Hust91the generator that controls the opening and closing of the portals can be overloaded by forcing it to open and close multiple portals in quick succession, which leads to it shorting out.
The Tau do this by using massive airburst fragmentation cannons that can fire rapidly, forcing the shield to account for every small fragment of projectile. The Tau also use Plasma Accelerators and Plasma Burst Cannons that do the same thing, except instead of hundreds of fragmented pieces of shells, you're instead getting hit with hyper-condensed balls of plasma that then explode outward with stupid levels of concussive force, which covers a wide area of the shield and forces it to go into overdrive to redirect all of the energy.
Eventually it just overloads and fizzles out. Usually takes 2 or 3 Barrages of these weapons. The Tau can take out Void shields alarmingly quickly, as the Imperium found out during their last encounter with the Tau.
fan animations will never stop blowing me away with how good they are, literal AAA quality
Better then triple a have you seen tgat garbage
No hate to the animator, but you are smoking crack
Fan quality is better than triple A quality
@@Robert-wy4ry AAA rating and what we call "aaa" developers are different
@@revlouder5865 yeah fan work can definitely be better in a lot of cases. They have more creativity and put their heart and soul into it while triple AAA just wants a quick product to sell even if it’s the same crap for the 10th time buggy,incomplete or not.
R.I.P. to the Box Boi.
After hearing of his retirement this week, this was great to see. c:
Who’s the box boi?
There’s still the venerable kit AND Ironclad tho.
@@tiberiumnp8030 Let's be real, they're on borrowed time. It's abundantly clear that GW intends to gradually phase out all the old kits.
@@armata_strigoi_0 idk they also kept the old landspeeder, rhino and tactical squad
May his ventures be splendid!
Warhammer nerds are the best animators there is. They single handedly can make astonishing animations like this. Astartes then Dreadfall
i have to disagree while great the best? not likely
No other fan base besides maybe star wars puts this much love into non profit art projects
@Flare they lack gore due to ratings
@@SrAntonio301 I disagree
@redmafiapanda509 except they literally do, and did. And the moment GW took away their ability to do so unless it was on their paid platform, we saw a significant drop in fan made content. It's not a hard correlation to see.
Those void shields can really withstand anything
exterminatus: let me introduce myself
@@HandfulofComments heresy!!
I hate when enemies have void shield equivalents, it just makes any Siege or Assault take so much longer
**Laughs menacingly in Volkite Destructor**
I enjoyed the fact that the void shields looked nothing like I would have expected, but were clearly still void shields.
1:20 I can’t articulate how kickass this whole video was. Better animation than most of the official stuff. I can also see how much you’ve refined your talents since DREADFALL with this clip
Mostly because GW cares more about the money than the passion.
Yeah that so epic, especially this one 1:24 so cool
❤ I was thinking the same this the exact scene you tagged made me jaw drop. Wish this was a movie 😅2hr of this yes plz
1:32 favorite part. Shows how resilient the human body can be, because even after getting stepped on by the Dread, there’s still a split second before the body gets fully crushed under the weight with the bones all cracking.
I would say its more so the armour he is wearing being resilient, and as soon as that gave way, he was squished like a crab after its shell cracks.
Holy shit, I am blown away with how good this was. The nuke on the shield has to be the best explosion I've experienced on screen, the brutal shockwave is perfect.
And the animation of the Dreadnought and Demon... purpule thing is clean and effective.
Well done, I salute you.
Man - why you got to say all of those nice things? I'm blushing and looking pleased with myself now
@@MaxMurray3D Good, you should
That was breathtaking. The scene with the camera going through the troopers almost felt 3d.
For the Emperor 🥹
For the Emperor
Tnx, I'm fine!))))

That purple creature is just such an amazing design. The movement, the color grade, the see through cover and the flowing tentacle. Perfection.
This is the single most impressive rendition of a hive city I've seen to date. It's been handcrafted to truly display the absurd scale of these megaliths. Your craftsmanship is worth the praise.
Hold the hell on, are the purple creatures and their constructs the Khrave? I know they take over humans psychically with ease and all their bodies and weapons are wreathed in warpfire. These guys seem to fit the bill!
I remember those from Lion El Johnson, Lord of The First. They are definitely one of the cooler scary xenos races
I'm wondering if slaaneshi demons?
+ Pink colours
+ Summoning
+ Seem to enchant people
+ Typical for human worlds to fall to chaos
- Not recognisable / known demon types
- Not enough depravity shown (yet)
@@TheRABIDdude it’s a misconception that all slaaneshi demons need to be depraved. She is also the god of excess, greed, pain, perfection - all of which could manifest without some sexual archetype.
@@rowser4472 agreed, Slaanesh is the answer to the question "what if X but too much"
@@TheRABIDdude Slaanesh Daemons have a very distinct look. This seems to be some kinda of warp inclined xenos species.
Looking SICK. Easily a successor to Astartes in terms of 40k fan animation quality!
It's got a long way to go but so far looking quite interesting
@@thechadcruzaider7864 we all aspire to something!
Not even close, my guy.
@@monbreau7306 Somebody needs to rewatch the first episode of Astartes. Let a team cook, these guys have potential. Don't you think that?
@@monbreau7306 its true Astartes is another level from a professional 3d artist with years of experience. I'm just some dumb fuck with blender :D
Congratulations! You just got hired! You will be contacted soon!
Jokes aside, if I DON'T see more future creations from you at this level, I will be both disappointed and surprised. Don't let your amazing talents go to waste! Keep up the amazing work
I shall continue to do so VoxMendax!
Henry Cavill need to see this
I had a feeling that Hive city had a shield. The sound of the dreads cannon is just amazing. For all these years I never have thought of the claw spining. That man was spinned to pieces. You do a great job.
This is why we will miss the Boxnaughts
To true tre
Can still use them except for tourneys though
Miss them? Why? Is the Imperium scuppering the old models?
@@DinnerForkTongue its the chaos god GW that is scrapping models.
Lore acurate dreadnought very nice
Lets see Paul Allens deadnaught
Not really but whatever.
The guardsmen getting blended by the Dread claw and turned into a human smoothie is CRAZY
1 dreadnought to assault an entire hive city, I know he’s got extra battle brothers helping him later on but my main concern is if he’s got the ammo to last an assault that long
Idk man one dreadnought with orbital and air support kinda seems like overkill to me. XD
What would the dreadnought do if it ran into a tank company?
He could only punch them really.
ah you know how it is space marine's have exactly as much ammo as the plot needs, i mean you see and pockets or holsters for spare mags on any space marine ever?
Looks amazing!!!
"Babe wake up! New Dreadnought animation just dropped!!"
In all seriousness, this is outstanding. Thank you for your effort.
Hey Max! Dog with no bones here. This makes me happy and sad that the fans are always leaps and bounds ahead of their "AAA 'quality'" competition. You the man Max. Thank you for showing us your potential and we're all waiting, anxiously waiting, for your inevitable rise.
God, the way that Dreadnaught shoulders that enemy mech and just unloads into whilst throwing it to the ground gives me such Titanfall vibes, like when a Tone or an Ion just lays an enemy Titan out before absolutely pushing their s*** in and killing the target. Fantastic animation and I cannot wait for the next part.
Thanks man! I'm especially happy with that judo throw as well! - the next part is in development, but as with anything, life continually gets in the way - its why I wish I had some clones to get more done!

The Dreddie was super nice too. Great job! It looked very cool.
Some could say rad? But I shan't push my luck
Thank you so much for animating a Hive city's shields getting hit. That was absolutely gorgeously made.
Even the sound was just perfect~♡
I dont know how many times I rewound the missile hitting the shield. the explosion, the delay to the sound. and the sheer BASS of it all
The missile impacting the city’s shield caught me completely off guard
Amazing!!!
Les gooooooo!!!!
EDIT: Dude the Dready throwing hands with the other bot just made my day!
I was pretty happy with the judo throw myself (with assault cannon)
If this was a full series... I'd definitely watch it!!
YES, FINALLY AFTER WHAT SEEMED LIKE AN ETERNITY, MY FAV ANIMATOR UPLOADED ANOTHER DREADNOUGHT ANIMATION. LETS GO
Nice 👌
more...just more. There needs to be more of this level of quality...and story. Please don't stop
I am Brother Chaplain URSUS....And this is Approved by the EMPEROR.... Continue your Picts and Vox and when the time comes .... WE WILL SUPPORT YOU AND SMITE WITH ZEAL AND FURY!!! THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!!!
This is what we are lacking a bit. Space Marines on their past Campaigns against Xenos and Humans that do not exist anymore.
I am really glad we are blessed by this animation
This guy gets it
@@MaxMurray3D ❤️💪
very fluid and crisp 👌
woah! that shot where Red Dread took down that mech was insane!
I am so impressed how you took the slightly goofy design of a dreadnaught and made it look military-viable. In this and the other Dread vids
Oh you!
Yo that was dope. I’ve read descriptions of how the Warp creatures can make people go mad and how they can almost hurt to look at; but I’ve never seen any depiction of one as genuinely otherworldly as that creature right at the end. This was incredible.
The portal was the best rendition i have ever seen on energy collecting and forming a portal
The improvement between RED's is seriously incredible.
1:19 That is one HELL of a shot!
My god. I need to share this far and wide. This is absolutely STUNNING!!! I can't WAIT for more!
Hauntingly beautiful. Great Work!!!
Best road trip story in a while.
that shock from the missile hitting the shield is amazing, so good sound design and layout. Also the dolly zoom vertigo moment was really good too!
Since you've blessed us with this fantastic upload.... you can't just possibly leave us without more future uploads can ya??.
More will be revealed! unless I am evicted... but I'm sure I'll be fine!
100% fantastic the whole way through
My approval is immeasurable and my day has been improved
Your work honours the very holy Throne of Terra.
Hollywood- & God-tier quality!! Truly glorious!
Thankyou kindly :)
@@MaxMurray3D You're welcoooome. Been watching your videos since "Dreadfall".
Dude, this is insane. Dreadfall was amazing, this is just knocking it out the park.
Outstanding work, gentlemen.
Amazing work! Loved every second of it.
It's amazing ! Incredible work !
This is fantastic! Hope to see more.
Absolutely fantastic..Just love it..👍
Fantastic. So glad to have this pop up in my recommendations.
The highest quality Warhammer 40k animation I've seen all year. You've outdone yourself, truly. What a love letter to Grimdark.
I feel seen. And slightly seduced? :)
This is simply amazing! It’s so cool to see your work come to fruition! Keep it up!
This is bloody brilliant! Fantastic work, instant follow.
Очень мощно! С нетерпением ждём продолжения🔥
👏The lore and stories are sufficient to interest me in Warhammer 40k but...this definitely helps. By the dedication of their fandom shall ye know them; and Max Murray is one worshipful acolyte. Keep up the good buddy; I'm too damn cheap to financially support or subscribe but, praise is free and you've earned it. 👍
I'll take what I can padre :)
Amazing! Superbly done
Freaking phenomenal!!! Amazingly and beautifully executed!
Amazing stuff dude. Look how far you’ve come with your skills and art! It’s been great to watch your journey, and exciting to wonder where it will take you next. Keep it up man, keep learning, keep working, you’ve got the stuff.
Thanks man - I love the source material, so its always been a pleasure working and developing and all of that jazz. Comments like yours make me feel like it was all worth worth it :)
So many months of waiting for this?..... I don't regret for a second that I waited so long, great job mate
I was captivated for the entire duration of this video, thank you for your hard work. It was truly a masterpiece to behold.
this was absolutely beautiful thank you so much for making this.
Very pretty. Hope you keep up your work, even if its not Warhammer related
Man - I've had a terrible day on the phone with my freelance agency saying theres no work this year. So this means so much more than you know! i hope to release some breakdowns of how I do models and creatures sometime - and works begun on the last "dread" video. But there is so much work that needs doing on that! Again man, thanks!
Yes. Absolutely. This I love. Quality animation and intriguing antagonists. Are these some unknown breed of xenos? They don't feel like demons, are these humans cultists? Again, not a culty vibe. I am intrigued and interested to see more.
Humans cut off from the imperium are susceptible to all sorts of influence - and sometimes in their desperation they find help in something potentially worse, but also something which can help defend from the other xenos threats
Great job! Thank you!
Oh fuck yes! My day just got significantly fuckin cooler
What!? Why!? How!? I have so many questions around this animation. It was phenomenal. I haven’t seen something this good since Astartes.
Astartes was better.

That autocannon sounded brutal, really great.
Red Dread Redemption
We really need a Dreadnought video game. This guy should lead the production on it.
I love how this captures the grandeur of the 40k universe by not resorting to using "familiar" enemies as an opposing force for the animation. Too often, a lot of animators and writers forget that it's a big galaxy and that the full scope of threats that exist in the setting are far from limited to the small number we see in the tabletop game. The enemies in this feel unique and inspired, and in a lot of ways evoke a similar "I wonder what *those* are?" to the enemy faction in the original Astartes animation. It's refreshing to see more than just the common enemy factions in one of these animations and I really appreciate it.
Great job, I really hope we get to see more!
I hope to do more as well! its just that making monies always seems to get in the way!
Excellent. But the soldiers look like they are wearing fishnet leggings. That is hilarious.
I noticed that too lol
Absolutely outstanding!
Absolutely brilliant, superB quality!
Wow. Absolutely incredible
This quality is phenomenal! I love how cool this is and how well it fits right into lore. Keep ‘em coming!
