😂 Its funny cause thats what they did with death company. I made my own primaris death company with the same method too, I’ll show it off in a future video when I’m done painting it
Heroic proportions, that's for sure. Useful info - that and watch the wind direction - and oil on your hand -and...and... and... You are a wealth of hobby tips, and a pleasure to watch.
While I agree the stands seem too high for my taste, they're not my models! 😁 Beyond that, it's not like base height matters at all in 8th/9th edition 40K, as Cover isn't counted the same way it used to be, so base height really doesn't matter, gaming-wise, so do whatever you think looks best for your purposes! I'm currently struggling with how to mount some of my Orlock Wrecker models in a take-off flying position (as they seem to have been sculpted on the decent). I do prefer the clear plastic flight stands over a solid black stem, but I'm going to have to get very creative with how to make it work to get the model where I want him over the base, and when in the proccess to attach it... 🤔
This looked like so much fun broski! Those nipple transplants were a huge success, I'm loving the look of primaris sanguinariesv:-) PS I'm actually a huge fan of the overall primaris aesthetic too, but I'll still find something fun to do with this pile of small marines hangin around here...
Thanks man. My brother has a firstborn ultramarines army, so we are gonna keep firstborn units in that army and primaris in my BA. That way we can enjoy em all and the minimarines wont have to look small next to primaris in contrast in the same army
Great conversion! One suggestion I have for doing the metal wire flight stand is to coil it exactly the same way, but to drill a hole through the base and push it up through, then green stuff over that. It'll give a 100% bulletproof attachment, and give you more flexibility for basing style I know what you mean about army updates, although as a Sisters of Battle player, sometimes Christmas does come!
🤔 I really thought that was where he was going to go with it. As he added the green stuff to the base, my brain was wondering if he should of drilled the base first or would it be better to do after. And then he stuck the coiled loop on top 🤔 Caught me right off guard...
The Black Templars are proof that GW isn't opposed to doing some chapter-specific Primaris sets. They gotta give BA some more love! Would love some Sang Guard, better DC, Dante... and I'm one of those people that would love to see truescale terminators. The BA Assault Terminators is my all time favorite set, they're so detailed. Love them.
Beautiful conversions! The only sad part about this is that you didn't only do GW's job for them (updating the kit) but you had to give them even more money to do it (buying 2 separate kits).
I really love my Tamiya extra thin, i have two bottles and in one disolved a buch of sprues and now it works like that thick but deposits extra plastic in the join and fuzes them. Real game changer when I heard about trying it.
always dig seeing the sculpting/converting-related projects you've done! Nice change of pace from the terrain and you clearly have a knack for it! Great work!
I remember the chatter before gw unveiled the concept of primaris marines but there were a few leaks and people were just calling them truescale marines and pointing out how much better they looked next to imperial guard models to have the space marines be half again as tall.
Just did that for the Death Company using assault intercessors and old DC kits I had since 6th Ed. Was pleasantly surprised that the jump pack fit this well without any work
Editorials: Well said! Conversion tips: Spot on Conversion results: Excellent Comedic relief: Aces High-Fiving the Lens to close the show: Yeah! Cheers!!
Agree with you 100% about mini-marines. These conversions are well thought out and exactly how I've done lots of Primaris conversions. Nicely done and made me almost go buy some Sanguinary Guard even though I play Imperial Fists.
Tbh it looks like an assault intercessor in the recruit/indomitus box, not the standalone box, which is greatly explain why in this video, it be more of a “monopose” and require a lot more of cut, saw, sand than normal.
Drill a hole in the center of the base and run the wire up the middle. This allows you to flip the model over and fill the base with epoxy or glue, and maybe press in a metal washer to add weight to the base. Also, given the other players I've talked to, the reason to use boxed poses and stands is that they tend to result in models being closer to the table and easier to place behind cover.
I agree, the proportions of Primaris is so much better. I have a box of Sanguinary Guard and I wish I was capable of doing as you have done without fear of ruining two units in the process.
always wanted to do this, now, with the sanguinary guard updated, this vide jumped straight to my head, definetely copying the first pose and 3D printing a spear for another one :D
Awesome conversions! I get a real Birdmen vibe (from Flash Gordon - specifically the 1979 movie) so that in my mind they all sound like Brian Blessed. Cheers!
Large Acrylic Rod 3/16ths and a heat gun to bend into cool shapes for more dynamic pose and/or different mounting. I use magnets to attach for storage/transport. Attach with green stuff and super glue.
I love converting stuff. I actually converted that new Blade master model for Custodes. Since I collect the army already. Most of the pieces to make him are very available and I decided to make the 2 handed sword bigger out of 2 shield guard swords.
I thought the title was a reference to Lionel Hutz, and thus that the video was going a different route. "Updating OLD Warhammer 40k? - No, more waiting for Games Workshop!"
Love the re-posing! I know you said no to an exhaust 'stand', but adding a bit of dust kicked up by the landing guy (maybe a doughnut of fluff with a thin matte varnish spray to lock it down) might take up some of the space and sell the 'landing' motion. Also, if you weigh down the bases, you can bend the wires to move the apparent center of gravity of the mini closer to the rim of the base. This can give the minis a more kinetic 'off-balance' look rather than appearing to hover. Thanks for the great video!
Man, thx! Just got my first Blood Angels Combat Patrol. This was a great Inspiration when I want to make my army bigger. They look great! Realy like the one with the sword.
Nice looking Sanguinary guard models. Like what you did with the flying stem it looks like it will hold the figures in the air a lot better than the plastic stems where the model drops off if you touch it by accident.
You might want to try using paperclips instead of black wire. It is more subtle to the eye from a distance (and quite francly even up close) and although thin, it is hard enough to hold the miniature where you want it to be (unless mistreated of course). Love the new Sanguinary Guard look, much more menacing and worthy of the reputation they carry with them to the battlefield. Great job!
"This one was made by a team of writers." Also, I defnitely agree with you on the smoke plumes, but I also don't like having them supported by something that isn't terrain where possible. To fix this on my Screamers of Tzeentch, I'm going to make some half-destroyed obelisks and arches and just just have the screamers posed like they're flying over them. I'm going to try to have them attached to the structures at the tip of the wings or the base of the tail so that it looks less candid.
Everythings a tradeoff. If you have your modes flying over items on their base all the time, they bring those items to every battlefield which has its own issues woth suspension of disbelief
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop True, but since completely removing that would mean just having a black base I figure I'll go all in with their attached terrain. Kind of like each is a mini diorama. (I do much prefer your wires to the GW clear stems tho)
I remember when the sanguinary guards came out. I got to paint the promo models for the local game store. Gave them a cool paintjob. Got to keep the bits left over. Damn.... that those are considered old now.... Perhaps i'm getting old :P
The one detail that fails to sell me on the flying poses is the weird flat bit on the feet where they normally touch the ground. Do you ever end up doing anything with that? Is it less obvious after painting?
vegetable oil is an interesting idea. I have started to use vaselin, that i can apply very thin. I made some greenstufmodls to recast more purity seals i like and i just use a brush to work with vaselin as my moldrelease when pressing the greenstuff into the mold. I love how you made the conversion and it is very inspirational^^ Not being afraid of changes and showing how easy it can be to adapt things is nice.
Just as a major suggestion with the use of wire that way, drill through the base and push the wire up through the base with the coil underneath it. You'll get a bit more stability out of it and it allows more options for the basing.
Really great work here! The attention to detail is great. I probably would have made the stands just a bit shorter, but that's just my personal preference. Can't wait to see these painted up!
You are enjoying yourself, by doing your own poses and models. You're an Artist. I don't collect models or paint. I came into 40K when I was checking out the art in White Dwarf at WHSmiths. I never new about the Lore for years, even after playing Dawn of war games. I then saw the Picture of the Emperor fighting Horus, then began reading and learning online. Awesome stuff. I'm happy to see you make new models.
@@coalitionofrob436 if you get one of the hollow skulls from the citadel set and cut it up it looks good as if the flyer is crushing it as he lands. and there are all sorts of bits, from body to buildings to rubble, all with the added part of no weak flying stand.
Very nice looking! This is pretty much the same idea I used for my Vanguard Veterans. Those jump packs are just too good for other chapters not to steal lmao
Just something to consider that I’ve been looking into. In Age of Sigmar, the Stormcast Eternals have a ton of units that feel like they are made for kit-bashing , or just flat out using them as a replacement (looking at you prosecutors). Also could use something like Knight-Azyros, Knight-Venator, Celestant Prime, or even Sigvald for the Sanguinor or Dante. You should look into them, I dont currently have any Sanguinary Guard, but will be using Stormcasts to kit-bash them when I do.
Look into making some home made sprue glue. I get Tamiyas cement glue pot, fill it with sprue bits and let the bits melt down. Makes this gloopy glue out of plastic that works REALLY well for gluing plastic minis that just don't quite fit well together and/or kitbashing!
When using flying models I like to have each of them lower to the ground than the last because it makes the appearance that they are flying, but they still look like they are engaged with other models when charging
Dude! What you are doing is what I have been doing for years, I am 100% for this video, but your humorous clips you added in like the zoolander ..... perfect. Made me lol, for real.
This is great. You think like I do and as an illustrator, you completely understand why the new proportions are better. Now I just have to decide whether I'm doing the same thing with my new box of Sanguinary Guard. I can't tell if I wanna go to the expense. But I hate that cartoony kit! It looks older than it actually is.
Awesome conversion work! Conversions are one of my favorite parts of the hobby (which is why I like Necromunda so much), and this is an Ace project. Also, thanks for not leaning too hard onto the GW criticism; that's one of the thing that turns me off about the scratch-built community in general. And I totally agree with you concerning the Primaris versions of classic units; that's clearly the direction both the products & the lore are going. There's still a place for the old style/scale SM kits, but they almost certainly won't be making any new ones that way...
It's funny, I hate building.. It's a chore since I want to paint without building first, BUT I obsess over conversions. Love them and made completely new minis out of parts
For the base, try drilling a hole through the base, and poking the wire through before putting the model on it. That allows for more freedom for base decoration.
I'm a maker not a gamer, so apart from building & painting some orks [to accompany my scratchbuilt ork buggy, I'm not really into Warhammer Lore - but these adaptations are superb little sculpts and will look phenomenal painted up. Great one Eric
Gw releases a "new sanguinary guard box" it's just 5 assault intercessors painted gold with a blood Angel's upgrade spure

Very nice! I would shorten the stand of the 'landing guy' - being closer to the ground would better suggest the landing intention imho.

Never thought about the wind effect before. So much for that piece of blissful ignorance.
BTW - Love the flight stands
That only matters if you are displaying these in a diorama. I guarantee nobody playing with minis actually cares

i love old figures but it's true, nowadays they are out of scale. nice job as always
I'm a maker not a gamer, so apart from building & painting some orks [to accompany my scratchbuilt ork buggy, I'm not really into Warhammer Lore - but these adaptations are superb little sculpts and will look phenomenal painted up. Great one Eric
