Wib Rambles About his Lamenters Army for About Half an Hour

- Just a chill video where Wib shows off his Lamenters.
Forgot to mention that everything you see here came to about 3,000 points in 9th edition. Not sure how much it'd come to in 10th, should probably work that out.

Wib half-apologetically explaining his hobby interests is pure Lamenters vibes
The vibe and way he talks gives me "friend finally got a chance to explain their hyperfixation"
And I am happy to sit here and hear him out.
I respect anyone with the patience to paint Lamenters, your commitment to your theme makes this double impressive. Thank you for the tour round your army.
Regarding the stuff written everywhere, it would be very apropriate for the lamenting bois to have stuff like *"Why us?" "Please no more" "Forgive us" "We're sorry"* or *":'("* written everywhere, which would definetly make them very seperate from the angry marines
Maybe with some actual tears streaming from their eyes, painted on their helmets. Not individual teardrops, that would be madness. Too small. But little lines of blue trailing down.
Penance, repent, redemption, redeem us, By His Grace. So many very 40k Cult Guilt type slogans are good
This is a horrible idea. They are tragic, not pathethic.
"We deserve this" feels on brand
@@Bluecho4 Prison tattoo style
Colour forge sunset yellow spray IS averland sunset spray. It's colour matched, and I'm using it for my imperial fists. I can only say they match pretty well.
Their sprays in general seem to be very good and the colour matching is also damn good too. Plus they are bugger cabs then most others !
Lovely models. I do like the lore behind the Lamenters. Random thought; they're a Blood Angels successor chapter, but they are Yellow. Which, using the discredited (but probably used in 40K) Four Humors system would make them Choleric rather than Sanguine. Associated with Fire, Youth, Summer, the Gallbladder, short-tempers, bitterness and daring. That seems to fit.
They actually do use the four humours in the Horus Heresy books, so it's probably still around in 40k times!
Wib, this army, and the showcasing of the old metal marines has honestly tempted me to begin a collection of metal Chaos Marines to build an army with.
Do it. Do it! DO EET!
Down that path lies madness...
@@theshuttingdowns As it should be with Chaos! :D
YES to the Gobbo army overview. Love seeing all your models.
Your Lamenters army is brilliant! I've watched all your retro painting vids avidly. I gave up painting a Space Marine army in 1993 to go to University. Now in 2023 you have now inspired me to finally bring my Doom Eagles to the table. Cheers!
A Wib ramble? Always a delight
He's awesome tbh.
This is just amazing. The attention to detail, the amount of original models, the strict adherence to the SPIRIT of yesteryear even when something is not quite the original thing... mindblowing! It is clear as day this is a work of love for you, it shines in every single moment.
Looking forward where you go with them, would love to see them again!
Iâve followed Wib and his adventures in painting tiny people for a long old time, and the effect it has on my determination to *actually* sit down and paint in magic.
I have so much respect for this channel as an engine of hobbying.
This army looks amazing!!
I like how the Dark Angel slogan-wearers in that picture consist of Brother Edgelord, with "KILL" and "Pray for death", Sergeant Darkly Ironic with "Have a nice day", and their mate who really wanted to fit in but couldnt think of anything more inventive to write than just "Dark Angels".
Painting yellow over black? What a mad lad
thats the magic of averland sunset
yo hey, this comment doesn't have anything to do with this video specifically but I've wanted to say this for awhile
ive been watching this channel and more specifically the painting stuff and codex complaint for the past few years and this type of thing partially inspired me to make a channel myself.
and even though our content cant be more different ive recently gotten to grow around your size, ive always wanted to make a Warhammer specific channel but haven't found the time since starting this one
so thanks for being a inspiration hope ya guys keep finding success
"I was originally just planning to have a little combat squad..."
That's how they get ya.
You're earlier coverage of the Lamenters is what inspired me to paint my Space Marines be Lamenters.
Complete tangent but your Grot Rebellion stuff ended up inspiring me to create my own (printed) Grot Rebellion army!
What a lovely army! Every start of an edition gives me a little more gas to paint up my RT/2nd/Early 3rd ed Orks. I have always loved collecting them so ever so slowly ive been painting them up even if I dont play 40k as much anymore.
iâve been manifesting this vid for months now youâre welcome viewers and thank you Snipe and/or Wib
Such a cool army! Amazing work, I admire the dedication to painting yellow over black primer
I would honestl love a lot more of these videos where you just ramble about your minis because they are always very comfy and I have always loved your painting logs.
Lovely army. Respect for sticking to the era as much as reasonably possible. I've been slowly working on a similar project using Rogue Trader era Chaos Squats for Heretic Astartes
"Give the people what they want" ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!
So, I was able to get my hands on some rtb-01 marines the other day and have had some old tanks of the era as well, you've honestly inspired me to do something very similar, just a small showcase army made of really old miniatures. Should be a really fun project!
Beautifully painted and tons of nostalgia, I could listen to you ramble on about them for hours mate.
Love it Wib! Thanks for showcasing such a brilliant army. Lamenters always look super cool en masse, and OldHammer warms the cockles of my cold dead heart. What a project!
This army is gorgeous. Great work
I love watching people ramble about projects they put a ton of work into like this! It's such a great army, with loads of unique personality.
Love this army! Recognized all the tanks immediately! What a great throwback to my first years in the hobby!
Tamya Fine Surface Primer in white is, to borrow a phrase from a poplar eighties butter candy advertisement "uncommonly good". A **period accurate** product would be Halfords' white spray primer, particularly for the vehicles. Amazing work, thanks for sharing!
I'd love to see a video on the potential future Sanguinary Guard conversions similar to the one you did for your Smash Captain. I'm quite curious about how it'd be put together!
Imagine going to your local shop for a game and your opponent shows up with this. Models are like 10+ years older than I am, bro is either a mega collector or an old salt. Either way youâre probably about to get bodied.
Absolutely amazing seeing this all together, although I couldn't help looking up points in 10th, but it comes to 3,130pts minus the apothecary
A ramble? On a Saturday? My Wib, you are spoiling us!
"There is no such thing as a finished model; only degrees of Work In Progress."
- Wib, probably
enjoyable ramblings of lamentation, thank you
I've always thought it would be fun to stick a dead Eldar guardian on the base of that shuriken catapult beakie, like he's just picked it up after his bolter jammed and he's going, "so, uh, how does this thing work, then?"
That's a great army. I like your commitment to use only older models in the current game. My own Blood Angels are largely from 4th/5th edition and I've resisted adding any Primaris since then.
They're not as pretty as yours though.
Your army looks great! It's so inspiring to see your army come along, keep at it and you'll finish soon! You deserve to have a collection to be proud of
I just watched a grown man talking for about half an hour about his toys that are older than me...and I loved every second of it! Beakies 4 Life!
Outstanding work thank you for sharing
Ah this brings back some great teenage memories, this was the era I played 40K, although I had an imperial guard army myself.
It was mostly all metal minis, some plastic and with those home-made Whirlwind and Vindicator conversions using the designs in White Dwarf and a bunch of plasticard. My favourite unit from back then, maybe 1990, were my Rough Rider horse cavalry.
I love this, all your videos have encouraged me to keep painting my Sad Boys đ keep going Wib, you'll finish it eventually
"They're far too old and rare to do conversions on..."
The most 40k appropro treatment of significant relics.
I needed this, thank you
It's always great to see a well-painted Rogue Trader era army. I'm reminded of picking up a Chaplain on Jetbike blister from my local store in the mid 90's, having now idea how it went together, and the generally bad paint job I ended up giving it. Those were the days.
I'm also keen on seeing the current state of your Grot Rebellion. Always a fun army concept, and such a shame it's even less viable in 10th. Have you considered looking at other games where it's more so, like Modulorka?
Love the Lamenters models! Working on my RT/2nd Ultramarines army because of you guys.
Such a good army, I love all the classic models. You are such a trooper for having a Lamenters army, yellow and checkers scheme is something the devil gives you to do in hell as a punishment. It looks so good keep up the good work.
Thanks for sharing, that was lovely!
Brilliant video, really impressed by your painting skills!
Very impressive! Thank you for sharing :-)
Looking forward to seeing the gross sometime in the future!
Always love a look at peoples armies. Really cool to see peoples thoygt processes and what excites them about their own work.
Got a rowntrees lollies advert on this video. Weirdly perfect fit for you
That is one beautiful army. And done from a black undercoat too! Really nice, thanks for sharing :-)
Beautiful army and great video about them! I'm on a similar quest, but since I already did Lamenters when Primaris debuted I'm going to do Crimson Fists and start with a Battle of the Farm set and expand from there into what I expect will be a very similar army roster.
your armies are always wonderful to behold, part of me want to play against them
This video sends me back to that video of wib talking about his ork army.
Oh awesome, the entire Lamenters chapter in one video! :D
My man!those are so awesome.great job.
A beautiful collection! The checks really pop out at tabletop range, would never have expected that
As someone that asked for this I am grateful and it looks amazing!
This is such a lovely army!
Great little project, you should be well proud :D
I love your lamenters, they look so good. Itâs actually inspired me to do, essentially the same thing, but instead of rogue trader minis Iâm planning on using the recent beakies that were released for the Horus heresy game, and anything forge world churns out. Got my eyes on that librarian consul.
If you're looking to use firstborn that are slightly taller than regular firstborn like said Mk6 you've just mentioned the Heroes series Tactical marines are same scale as Mk6, deathwatch veterans are also same size but probably not what you're looking for and finally HH is do another upgrade to an existing armour mk in autumn so like MK3, Mk5 or whatever armour it is will become Mk6 sized.
If you're looking for terminators the Heroes series two terminators are also taller than the recently replaced termies, leviathan box has a terminator squad, captain and librarian all in new scale and terminator chaplain tarentus is also same scale but was a limited time mini released a few years ago so might be a bit expensive to get him
Good luck with your project friend :)
And you better be sure as Heck i will listen for about half an hour!
That techmarine is set and ready to robust some greyshirts.
Thank you for making this video.
You should do Grot Commissars to represent the runt herders :)
Absolutely brilliant paint job on every little guy
I am enjoying the idea of the techmarine just beating xenos to death with his toolbox way too much đ
Those are damn cute marines
i'm basicaly doing the same thing as you, but based on the 1991 white dwarf #142 Leeds ultramarines For a bit of variation in chainswords you can bodge together a couple of the chain bayonets from RTB01, maybe with a knife handle for the hilt, or bit of plasticard. or just use the chain bayonets as proxy chainswords , good for chainfists too on the power gloves.
Love this content!
Lovely collection!
At last, a continuation to Wib Shows Off His Orks.
they're great, nice to see the whole force (so far) and I'm a big fan of your own interpretations of the colour schemes for some of the units.
THIS HAS BEEN THE CONTENT I HAVE BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR!
It looks fantastic
One is never too old to have a angry marines army
So very cool. Awesome army Wib!
Ooooohhhh, content to fill the void in my black heart, kewl
Loved watching this đ„°
Wib, your Spartan is brilliant. You scored 2 original Land Raiders I see. Those are beautiful models. Nice army, very cool.đ
Fantastic start to a Saturday...particularly right before a hobby night at my FLGS!
I don't know if anyone said this here but The Army Painter's Desert Yellow is a good spray base for yellow so you don't to anguish yourself as much while painting the most difficult color on the most difficult chapter color scheme.
As an old git who last played 40K when these models were current the way you're doing stuff because you feel it and it looks good to you is probably the most period appropriate part of this endeavour: if you had all the right models but didn't have that freestyle vibe going on it wouldn't be complete in any meaningful sense. My Landspeeder was made from the engines of a 1: 48 scale Apache helicopter kit with two RTB-01s in the pilot seats on the front and painted in a grey tiger stripe cammo scheme I made up; and my Whirlwind was a bunch of the rocket pods from that same kit bodged on the to the top of a Rhino (would have totally used magnets if I'd had them). Making up your own chapter markings is also totally legit: my devastators all had skulls painted on the helmets because I thought that skulls painted on beaky helmets looked cool (a position I still stand by 30 years later).
"The original land raiders [...] I don't know how to describe it, I just love them so much."
It's called "having taste". :3
Gorgeous army and enjoyed your recounting of how the collection has grown and what you have planned. Hope you show off the librarian when its done, that one is a rather nice sculpt. Nice camo snipers, I like the cloaks, convertions are excellent. RT era on 32mm bases look good, wasnt sure if they were 28mm, never liked 25mms because of feet poking over .. prone to wearing the paint off and they just looked odd.
So excited to see this!
I thought the landspeeder was a converted firestrike turret for a second
I love this.
Loved this. Great video.
Snipe's DREADNOUGHT army next, please.
For those we cherish, we die in glory.
Give Wib another 25 years then he'll be making an Angry Marines army with slogans such as "GIT OFF ME LAWN!" on shotgun scouts. Age is a funny thing like that.
Fantastic.
very cool army . I found a slight way for making melee units for the beakies was to take the old space crusade sgt weapons and mod them to fit the RTB01 kit
Love seeing your progress on the Lamenters. They're coming along swimmingly. You've worked very hard on them, and it's paid off in spades. Or checkers, if you will.
On the subject of Grot Runtherds, no one ever said they needed to be Orcs. Maybe consider giving some fancier grot models a bigger melee weapon (and sitting on top of something, of course). To designate them, not as a master keeping them in line, but a charismatic grot leading a squad of equals into battle. Communist Goblins and all that.
Amazing paint jobs, I remember the RTB-01s looking much more awkward but you've managed to give them a lot more life. Inspires me to do a 3D printed RT style army.
DIY Whirlwind? I made one of those back in the day :D
Lovely army, really a labour of love.
