#warhammer40k #miniatures #gamesworkshop - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
This is easily the most wholesome 40k channel. I'm so tired of "GW bad" whining everywhere. Let's just have fun building and painting you know.
thats what you can always count on here at EOB!
@@EonsOfBattle please check alclad chrome for plastic for for shine that is mirror like
Im glad you mentioned that. Of course GW is expesnive ! It always has been. Sure some models are stronger then others and its not a close to balance game like chess. Its way funner though and iv only played 4 games. Hell even I i lose I have such a good time. Its my favorite table top for sure.
Yeah, so many clickbait channels who do nothing but complain. And I mean nothing. They don't build, or paint, or play on their channels, they just put up images from websites on the screen while they screech about how Games Workshop just made the mistake that will ruin the company, and it ends up they are retiring an old model or something.
@@SpoonyBard88 ROFL, there was one 'content creator' who I got in an argument with, who was literally saying the exact opposite of what was contained in a GW financial report which comes to my phone... I could not believe what an absolute load of nonsense he was talking... even as a guy new to the hobby, I could easily tell what was stuff he'd made up for clicks.
Cannot wait for Games Workshop to go bankrupt as he seems to say in every one of his poxy videos... they're only 40-50 years old by this point, and the founders are 'knighted' (Livingstone is a genius, I'd say) in Great Britain... but that creator suuuuure knew better! 😹
Reasons to collect Orks:
1. You can play Gorkamorka.
2. Refer to 1.
3. The Orks are only limited by ones imagination.
Orks are one of the most conversion friendly armies for beginners.
As for painting - don't like how one mobs colour scheme turned out? That's okay, that mob is simply part of another warband that turn up for your waaagh.
4. Did I mention Gorkamorka?
5. Aftermarket bits galore (adding to how conversion friendly Orks are.)
You may not win all the games playing Orks, however you can have plenty of fun attempting some tactically dumb stuff.
Also - GORKAMORKA!!!! WAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!!
Orcs are such a great army for a beginner painter, because the color scheme doesn't matter, consistency doesn't matter, and being clean doesn't matter.
Just have fun painting them!
Necrosis are really good too, just being a bit more clean. But it’s all one solid metal color
That looks like a fun kill rig conversion. Consider swapping the guitarist and front turret positions so he can rock out front stage.
Don't forget the row of speakers to sit behind the guitarist.
Ah, Goff rokkerz! Maybe I should also make all of me future Goff wierboyz as Rokkerz?
Working on exactly that myself. Including a tiny Bluetooth speaker to actually play music on it
That silver basecoat keeps tricking my brain into thinking they are full pewter models, and how heavy they look lol
Same lol
Being a tau player it was absolutely all the battlesuits that sold me. I'm not into anime, but I think mecha aesthetic is really cool.
Sometimes i forget that Transformer/mecha type aesthetic is considered an Anime thing, i just played Mechassault 1 and 2 when i was a kid and thats how i fell in love with mechs
I wish they'd make some cool new side xenos to go with tau like the kroot but new and plastic.
@@PixelWolv Western BattleTech style industrial mecha is far less well known than Japanese mecha.
@@Icipher353 true, i guess that means i like Western Mecha more? I just dont like the whole power rangers/voltron magic robots that just mesh together into a giant robot.
Back when I started 40k in the dark past times of 1998, it was the Eldar Falcon model that got me in the hobby. It's a perfectly designed model (the model itself, not necessarily the kit, mind you), because it was (and still is!) the epitome and the trailblazer of the Eldar aesthetic. The fact that this model came out in 1997 and still holds up to this very day 24 years later without being out of place speaks volumes about the quality of Jes Goodwin's work. Heck, Forge World even re-designed their super-heavy Scorpion and Cobra tanks to better match the Falcon's aggressive, elegant, and timeless silhouette. It may not be the go-to unit for the Craftworlds now, but I love this model to death, and there is no other GW kit that I've built and painted more of over the years (at least 10 overall).
Jay please hear my prayer! Vallejo already makes a perfect replacement for their Liquid Gold Copper! Liquid Metal Copper is PERFECT and is the same ultra-thin consistency while being water based and has thst beautiful über-dense pigment!
^This.
I may have bought a Cities of Sigmar army just because I love the Battlemage of Griffin so much, it isn't even all that great in-game, I just love how it looks.
Stormstrike Chariot for Stormcast Eternals did the same to me
I love that model too! Is it still available?
@@Willabrador yup.
This is the correct reason to buy a model.
99% of the time you will be looking at the model on a shelf , so the way model looks is most important.
I know your pain when it comes to shiny metals. I am building models planes and tried alot of products.
If you want really shiny metallics you should always use a gloss primer, like enamel or alclad gloss base laqcuer (gloss spray can might work too). Alclads are actually really good metallics, but those are lacquers, so nasty fumes, a thinner that will eat through plastic if primed wrong, every scratch, every speck of dust, every rough sanding mark will be visible, need a gloss coat after, but damn those are shiny. The easy way - molotow liquid chrome, get the refill bottle (markers are ok too if you need to draw a blade or a hydraulic piston in one go) it could be airbrushed if thinned with alcohol (tamiya and mrColor lacquer thinners are said to be good too, I never had them tested), but again - gloss coat over.
Mission Models have acrylic gloss base and chrome paint, that could be polished.
From my experience it is more about the surface preparation rather than paint itself. Also gloss coat is like a must, especially if using chipping medium
@3:11 if you're not doing this constantly with every Ork; bike, truck and car then you're doing it wrong. Bonus points if you make noises.
Or constantly fiddling with any models with moving parts
Vallejo Metal Color is what you're looking for. Its acrylic, thin, and goes on super smooth straight out of the pot. One coat over a black basecoat is all you need. Exhaust Manifold is really close to Leadbelcher.
The only downside is if you're used to regular acrylic paints this stuff flows almost too well. You have to use only the smallest bit on your brush or it will flow into every recess and get everywhere.
Yellows work great to brighten up Ork & Goblin skin too.
Glad to see I'm not the only one who varies the skintone of his orks. I didn't vary it as much as you but each batch gets a slightly different mix.
"Super easy, barely an inconvenience"
I see what you did there. I see you are also a man of culture.
I've been collecting Orks since the days of Thrugg Bullneck's Ork raiders. That was a set of 17 metal Orks for use with the starting scenario in the Rogue Trader rulebook. Now I have hundreds of boys and plenty of oddball conversions, including an army of feral Snake Bite Orks made from AoS savage Orruks that have a steam powered battlewagon.
Finding your batch size and individual ways to maximize time use are key. Awesome video and absolutely love not only the theme but your skin concept is beyond great.
man paints 3 damn bikers, paint STILL wet. Hits up the GW site for the next project. talking about "things to add to my shrinking pile of shame".
respect.
I wouldn't say that GW hates all Xenos. Necrons got a lot of love over the last year+. As for copper paints (Near and dear to my heart! Just look at all that copper on my Necron army!) I like Citadel Screaming Bell for use on models with copper bits. As you know, my CSM army all have copper rims on their bases but I don't use Screaming Bell for those- seems like a waste of good paint. For the rims, I use Folk Art Copper. Its cheap and takes two or sometimes three laps around the base to get a good coat but when its done, the copper color is very nice and I can save my better, more expensive paint for the models themselves.
Well the new Drukhari look like my old 5E Dark Elder from 2010. Just some slight changes going from Finecast to Plastic but besides the Name nothing to fancy.
I also don't think GW dismisses xenos armies. I think they are culpable of not bringing enough spotlights to them. What happens is too many younger hobbyists love space marines (heroes wannabe) and just any good company does, they supply what the demand is.
If xenos would get more love and space into starter sets, maybe we would see more variety around
And I believe tyranids there getting there codex soon, hopefully they will get a ton new models
@@archmagosbelisariuscawl1192 yes! Hopes up!! My Nids have been eating dirt for too long, it's time to chew on some power armour and greenskins
@@d-emprahexpects849 yeah!!!
I have been mainly Orc/Ork player since '95 when I started hobby first with WHFB and then 40k 2nd ed and Gorkamorka. Specialy love the old scratch build/kitbash part of Greenskinz so me armies tend to be based around that aspect. Also as me old fantasy orc army is not playable anymore, I'm re-painting and basing them to be not so naked Bonesplittaz for AoS while using actual plastic AoS savage orrukz to make me more "Mad Maxian" Gorkamorka style mechanized Goff horde with anti-grav vehicles, jetbikerz and lotz of Dreadz, as I have played Goffz since I started 40k...
"They hate all the other Xenos races" ... Well, the Necrons recently got a huuuuuge overhaul. And Tau are mostly newish models aside from the alien auxillaries. Tyranids and Eldar need some love. And so do Guard.
I use the (acrylic) vallejo metal air colors over black gloss primer, kinda like a zenithal highlight avoiding full coverage even from the top. Makes the shiniest metal I've achieved so far.
I have collected and played Orks since Rogue Trader. THey have had their moments, but they have also been smashed in several editions. Editions 3, 4 and 6 were terrible for Orks. ED 5 was Green Tide or get your arse handed to you. It is about time they finally got some love.
Maybe you were just bad
Third/fourth edition was great for Orks. Thirty Boyz with slugga/Choppa in cc would cut through anything. Made TEQ's pointless as 2+ saves suddenly become 4+ saves.
@@GarredHATES Maybe I was, but I still won more games than I lost. Maybe you are just witless and could not think of a better comment, so had to be rude?
@@joshpotter9261 You just had to get into combat. Gun lines were the go to in 3/4. Guard Leman Russ spam and heavy weapon teams ruled the meta.
@@AndrewFishman you've obviously forgotten about the Rhino Rush.
Great inspiration! I keep slowing down on my army progress by spending ages on individual models, or getting burned out when doing large batches. So maybe some small batches would suit me well.
The model that sold me on my army was the metal penitent engine back in the day. Seeing that the humans in 40k were so awful to each other made playing as the humans in a sci-fi setting much more interesting! So once the plastic Adepta Sororitas came out, it was a no-brainer to choose them and go heavy on ecclesiarchy models as my first 40k army.
The Colde One Knights totally sold me on the Dark Elves and on Warhammer in general when I was still new to the Hobby. An elf Knight riding on a dinosaur? Hell yeah!
As a 62-yr old Brit gamer who started with Rogue Trader and still plays - mostly Death Guard, Necrons and Orks because Spahss Mahreens, yawn! - I really enjoy your videos for the huge amount of enthusiasm you have. Keep on keepin' on!
the models that got me hooked on my armies are the Saurus Eternity Warden for Age of Sigmar, the Drukhari Scourges and Aspect Warriors for my Ynarri army. the concept of a saurian warrior wearing a triceratops skull for a helmet with heavy armor just vibed with me and the concept of Scourges and Eldar in general looked the most interesting for 40k to me.
I had always planned an Ork army when i got the Gorka-Morka box set years ago but i went down the Eldar Craftworld route instead. Then got out of the hobby for over a decade. Then just recently i started watching 40k lore videos & the next thing you know the Beast Snagga box appears. So i'm doing a predominantly Beast Snagga army with the new combat patrol & Battle Wagon. Must dig out my Gorka-Morka box & see what's in there.
Great Stuff Jay. Kudos. I’m going to start a Speed Freaks army one of these days. I’ve got this idea in my mind for a conversion of a chariot being towed by bikes instead horses, or Sqigs in the case of Orks, like in the video for Macklemore song, Downtown. It’ll either count as a one the buggies ( I haven’t decided which) or maybe battle wagon.
I have seen great results of a gloss black primer or gloss varnish over a regular black primer. Also, I can personally vouch for Vallejo Metal Colour copper being the perfect acrylic copper paint, you won't be disappointed!
Best replacement for those liquid metal colours are Vallejo metal colour. Yes it's a similar name, in undercoat with gloss black
These orks screamed „WITNESSS MEEEEEE“ before you gave them their skin color xD
The Scenic Bases is what I used as a idea for all my marines. Glad to see that call back.
Remember to stick a row of speakers behind the orc guitarist when you build your rig. There's probably a plethora of companies that would sell them. Or the speakers could be 3D printed. Also, the guitarist needs a plume of flame coming out the end. I know for a fact Anvil Industries sells those.
As for other models, while it's not Orks, have you considered creating a rival biker gang using _Squats?_ The old Squat bikers will probably be difficult to find and might have less than stellar sculpts, but Ramshackle Games has a range of resin dwarf bikers. (Not to mention a wealth of Orks and Ork conversion bits.)
For rules, I'd suggest running the Squats as an Imperial Guard army. The bikers can act at Rough Riders (it's not like you'll be entering a 3rd party Squat army in any official tournaments). Pad out the troops choices with some Mantic Games or Wargames Atlantic space dwarf infantry. Or just build the bikers, and run them in Open Play against the Orks.
I don't know if I have room in my heart (or house) for another biker heavy army! but that would be sweet!
I LOVE your idea for the rig, I can't wait to see it finished!
Dudeee this conversion with guitar ork on the top is insane! Hope to see it ASAP, I also did my new Octarius Komando in Mad Max style. Now it's a trend)))
Oh it is definitely the Zoanthropes and Neruothropes for the tyranids! Absolutely incredible models!!
Your orks look great!! Thanks for sharing this with us, Jay.
I really like the turbo dork paints when I need something to be nice and shiny. Their color shifts make Thousand Sons armor look really accurate with the mind bending purple to blue transitions.
I started playing Orks in 2nd edition and the mini that sold me on the army was the (really) old Ghazghkull. I've had many armies through the years but Orks are the ones I've always kept around.
The Armorcast Battlewagon was the model that sold me on Orks back in 2nd edition
Just getting back into the hobby after around 15 years and this was so satisfying! Amazing work!
I got and assembled my first Orks in June of last year because I a friend of mine wanted the Space Wolf half of the Prophecy of the Beast box and I just really think 40k Orks are awesome. Started painting five of those models in June of this year and just finished painting them tonight. I've still got like 80 more assembled Orks to paint in addition to a bunch of unassembled ones yet to go, but I've mostly had fun building and painting what I have already done.
As far as Orks getting love again, sure we've gotten a lot of new models over the last year and a half and they look absolutely fantastic, but I'm personally not a fan of the super mono-pose nature of all the new minis. It just doesn't feel right for Orks at all.
I use P3 for my shiny metal and what solid me on Imperial guard was the bane blade and it's grandfather the Steamhammer. As for Battletech, I was sold on House Stiner because of the Atlas and their overuse of it. Also can't wait to see that center be built it would look so awesome!
I also seem to build my armies based around a model I love rather than what’s good on the table top; for example I have a huge number of Hellions in my Dark Eldar.
It feels like the correct way to do things!
Also I love the Ryan George Pitch Meeting quip! 😂
I did the same thing with my Beasts of Chaos for AoS. I think it's the better way to do it because I get to enjoy the building and painting side more because I love the models, as well as being able to enjoy looking at them on display at my house between games. Even though they aren't the best competitively I have a lot more time spent with the little guys at home overall than I do with them on the battlefield, so we might as well enjoy it all!
As we say in Pokemon it's always better to win with your favorites. Also, your favorites will always be in fashion.
That Ork center piece is going to fantastic....... The Ork driving it needs to have a cyber arm 😏
I've been collecting orks since "99"ish, I don't play, but adore my fungis
Dude can’t wait so see the rig kit bashing project coming to life !
Great video, 9:49 feel that pain man :D. Same feeling whenever I paint space wolves also
A man of culture you paint your orks different shades of green
I always liked the idea of the orks, they always seemed really fun to me. But with the new model releases, and my love for squigs I HAD to start an ork army. I went looking for models, and by some miracle I was able to find a beast snagga box in my local game store. I've just pre-ordered Mozrog Skragbad, and my squig themed army is well on its way! In the future I will probably pick up a kill rig, some more squighog boyz and a rukkatrukk squigbuggie or two.
14:04 pleeeeease do that, it would be such an amazing project
Thansk for the tips! My 6 bikers are coming this month and Im gonna use those tips for sure
I will love to see that proyect that you showed at the end. Off with the pork and on with the engine!
Man your finished models never cease to amaze me!
Some Metal paint (chrome) options that maybe useful Molotow liquid chrome paint refills as well as rub and buff. The rub and buff maybe hard to control on a tiny surface but I know Adam Savage has had a lot of success using both for his projects.
Man, you make everything look so easy. Love that
Vallejo metal color is some of the best acrylic metals I've used. Vince Venturella turned me onto them. The gold and coppers are very limited but overall the line is amazing.
The pro acryl metallic range has been serving me well recently, also look into metal alchemy by scale75
I love the range of shades that Metal N Alchemy has, but I find them a bit temperamental to work with. But that might just be me.
@@Totema1 ive never used them myself thats why i said look into them, anyway metal n alchemy range has loads of cool colours like purple and blue and green metallics so they would be the main draw, i would probably continue to use pro acryl for generic colours
Great video!! I love your Ork flesh variety theory.
Awesome final result love it !
Can't wait to see that awesome centerpiece!
The models that really made me want to play death guard were just the plague marines, there are so many cool details and mutations and stuff and I just had to paint them
I am putting together a box of death guard for a kill team right now! they might appear on one of our live streams pretty soon
I know there are a lot of metallics going on, but that montage was pure gold
Jay and his 50 shades of green ork army👍
Boyz with girth 😂 Somebody has been watching Kirioth!
I love your idea for your Killrig, Immortan Joe will await you at the gates of Valhalla!
love orcs!! im the same way.. i paint mine slightly different each time whether its 40k or AoS (Orruks) .. just as humans, I can't imagine every orc/orruk the same skin tone! I also painted my ork biker base rims to match the base artwork..AWESOME IDEA of kitbashing those sets together! @EonsOfBattle - are you really going to do it??
Best metal acrylic paints: Scale 75. Enjoy. :D
Nonsense. Vallejo acrylic Metal color range. Unbeatable 😋
Oh man I can't wait to see that kill rig conversion, love the mad max vibes
I've been thinking of trying my hand at Warhammer 40K and the Orks have defiantly caught my attention. What can I say, their war vehicles are defiantly a selling point. Thank you for the tips.
7:18 Priming with a brush is TIGHT!
“So easy, barely an inconvenience” great reference. Lol
Good time to keep my energy up as I work on my freeboota themed orks. Trying to figure out out to model take busters with cannons
For a Mad Max look you should have kept the orks mouths chrome and shiny so that they are witnessed in WAAAGHALLA!
Looks awesome! Hardest working man on TH-cam (after Drachinfel!) - And now guess what?! Got the day off SO IM OFF TO PAINT MY NEW 3-D PRINTED A-WING!
great video id love tooo se ya make a video on what you think is a good balance between competitive 40k and being in it for the hobby
phenomenal work !
Vallejo Acrylic Metal Color Aluminium.
Comes in a large 32ml flip top dropper complete with a shaker bearing. Very, VERY shiny.
Also, I really like the tan base rims. Very cool.
These are great. The bases are amazing.
Imma need that center piece built ASAP its such a cool idea
The love you put into each ork has inspired me to really do the same for all of mine. Sure, it make take awhile, but Orks don't care about dat, long as dere's a good scrap to be had on da other side!
They look great 👍 that centre piece idea is really good i cant wait see that video prob more than one 😉
man you are a genius
crazy paintwork
I love how GW won't actually be able to replace old Craftworld models with new different units, since by design the lore doesn't allow for renamed and 'different' Aspect Warriors.
If they do then it does confirm that GW doesn't care for their own lore.
They have trapped themselves between lore fans and model fans.
When has Nu-GW ever demonstrated they care about fluff?
i love this show, thank you :)
The Plate lives! Long live The Plate! Plate love you long time!
The model that spoke to me most was the humble ork boy and I dont regret it
Love this style of video just like that kill team one were u painted them over the weekend
great video excited for the ork senter peace
We (gaming group in upstate NY) had a fella play with us. He used to use red krylon on his Ork vehicles. We called him Shiny Ork Boy. There’s still a dozen of us that call him “Shiny”… ya know cause ReD MaKeS eM GO FaStA!
I got into save marines for tactical marines and predator tanks, with a side of the stormtalon gunship cause it looked like an advance wars unit when I saw it in the shop.
Nice job Jay! Love yer Waaagh! Keep it up!
I've only recently gotten into warhammer and I think the Orks are great! Hilarious, and easily the most creative bunch!
The crisis suits of the Tau army ! That's what got me back into warhammer a year ago :)
What you did with that gas canister is so smart also when you reach 100k (not if. You will.) You need to make that kill rig/ battle wagon kit bash a reality.
Vallejo metal color is awesome. I have copper and silver and its so much better than any other metallic paint ive tried. Its thin but covers in one coat I highly recommend it
Edit; Pro Acryl metallics are pretty good too. Not as thin as VMC but nice coverage
That shot of the original eldar guardian boxed set gave me a real kick in the nostalgia. I used to have those, along with a bunch of aspect warriors. They were lovely sculpts for their time, and so cheap in comparison to today's prices... Ah, simpler times...
The humble Tau Fire Warrior sold me on the faction. To this day it is my favourite design for any faction's basic infantry of any fictional universe.
I'm gonna go out on a limb & say Orks have *always* been popular & liked.
The wraith models for Craftworld sold me on collecting Craftworlds. Really like the lore and the aesthetic of the models
