you forgot HOUSE OF CARDS, at the end of the 2nd season Frank painted some soldiers with citadel paints
Another EPIC FAIL was to have a D&D cartoon on every Saturday morning when there was really only a handful of tv channels, then make the toys that represented the cartoon characters nearly impossible to find. They could've even made those for people to paint. Instead when you looked for it you found graph paper, books, and lead minis (at best) because it was 1983. What the shit...?
10000 thousand likes and yall should build a bad ass warhammer train diorama!
Ooooh with a squat landtrain? If so, lets upvote the shit out of this video!
1,000 likes and I'll have 1,000 sons.
Warhammer train set like a evil Thomas the tanked engine 🤣🤣
@@nigelsmith7366 yeah with Lascannons and Hurricane Bolters!
so ironic for the ultimate diorama guys.... :)
Hey, little brats, that Columbo diorama battle was my inspiration point to get me interested in wargames in general.
Damn kids this days.
🙄
Gosh donk kids :D hahaha. There's room for it all, we're just poking fun :)
@@SquidmarMiniatures hahaha I know, I'm just kidding, great video 😊
@@SquidmarMiniatures Get off my static flock lawn!
@@SquidmarMiniatures You really need a history lesson about where D&D and Warhammer came from. This is not for dioramas there were expansive rules and it was exclusively adult men, just like in the 2010's.
And yes square bases, play more Warhammer fantasy. 😜
@@MakCurrelI think you missed the joke
" I give it an 8", "I give it a 10", total score...19?
Hey hey hey. Don’t knock the Train Diorama bros. They have some top notch dedication, and some of their set ups are insanely good.
Yes, buuuut... I can't think of a single one that wouldn't be improved by a swarm of 'nidz cresting a hill in the background!
@@jeffrobagman2834 you’re not wrong there.
@@jeffrobagman2834 You must have a weird definition of "improved".
They should convert them into battlefields for Warhammer.
rarely enough dakka though.
Honestly instead of bashing on other nerds for their hobbies, i’d like to see more cross over between tabletop hobbies and the train stuff. They always have such great terrain with basic figures and wargaming is often the other way around
Try the 5.5mm Society? They're not too pedantic about the scale, so you can build to match your mini collection.
I have a train set in storage to one day build my dream of kitbashing a scifi/cyberpunk train diorama...
Hey , Flames of War used to have armoured trains as units (not sure what happened to them in their revamp though)
South Park did it right.🎉
"You never go full train diorama" - now I wanna to scratchbuild and paint some trains into the Warhammer 40K TT murder trains :P
you guys should paint the orks from that book exactly like they are
Wait. Petterson und Findus isnt popular outside of Vikingland and Bratwursthausen? 😲
Best children's book series ever
WELL, THANKS ALOT. now im hungry. gonna make me some bratwurst now. fucking hell
Im surprised the community D&D episode wasn’t in there, that is such a good representation of one person becoming the bbeg
The good one with the anti bullying message, “advanced dungeons and dragons” got censored because people are ignorant and don’t know what drow are. Over correcting…)
the season 5 episode is better, but the earlier on i think is canceled cause it had to do with suicide also
there is a massive diorama in the movie Ronin with Robert de Niro, not warhammer, but still a beautiful piece of work.
Ronin is an underrated movie :P
What colour is the diorama at Hereford?
Man I freaking loved that scene as a kid. Such a cracker movie too
The museum diorama is kind of perfect. A museum would not dedicate 5+ hours per mini. And it's also a great insperation for beginners. Look how awesome and epic your minis can be even if your painting is not top notch, even if your skills aren't the best your 40k army will look great in the end.
10k likes. Let's do this folks. We got to have Emil and Lucas make a bada** diorama with tin figures! Make them squirm under from their challenge.
Don't you dare
All aboard!
@@SquidmarMiniatures well, you guys did say it. And you remember what happened most every time you put out a challenge (thunderhawk, manta...). Still hopeful that you are able to make it to more subscribers than GW.
-10 and no cookies for Emil for so many disparaging model rail remarks!
Hey don't put the train hate on me haha 😂
@@SquidmarMiniatures Also, no-one has used figures that big with common model train scales since WW2.
Born in the 2000’s?! *visibly ages*
You forgot a great diorama for emil. There is a scene in ronin where a guy built and painted 40 ronin
I was six years old in 1982 when I played my first game of D&D. GenX kids were built different! We didn't have much parental oversight
Love this but FYI I was 10 back in the 80s when I started playing D&D with my friends and started collecting and painting (badly) at the same time. Great vid 👍🏻
I too started playing when I was 10 in the 80s!
Yep, 10 in ‘91 playing d&d… To be fair we didn’t have anything else to do, except maybe play on a Commodore 64 or Amiga 500😂😂
I started D&D with the red box Beginner Set 1 back when I was about 8 and my brother was about 12.
Think I was 9 when I had my first encounter with D&D in the 80s.
me and my friends played DnD when we were 11 and 12. my best friend's parents were almost always out of the house, so we could sit and play undisturbed for hours. we would turn off every single light in the house, light the fireplace and play my friend's dad's Gregorian CDs. and we definitely acted the same way they do in that Stranger Things scene - things got wild :D it was so much fun :P and although all of us painted warhammer, we actually never played a single game of it :D i guess the rules were a bit too complicated for us, them being in english and all :P
editor appreciation for the Garand ping sound at 7:16
🥲
I started playing D&D in 1980 at 13. Painting D&D mini's within a few years. Found 40K about 1990 and mostly painted in the hobby. I had every Eldar squad 3 squads of Harlequin's and 5 squads of Space Marines and a few Terminator squads. I even got a few bigger mini's like the Eldar Avatar and a Eldar Walker. Also a squad of Genestealers and a metal Carnifex. Stopped painting due to failing eyes and shaky hands about 2000. Sold almost everything at the last Game Convention I went to. I miss painting, but not the financial investment.
i have been painting for years ,,but I am learning so much from you guys about painting miniature's.. I cant say thank you enough, so I subscribed so I don't miss anything.
I'm From America, When I was a child my father used to read me books by Sven Nordqvest, but as I got older, NO ONE, has ever talked about or known who he was and it was such an exciting moment for me to see you guys randomly just namedrop his books!
I did my first tabletop wargame at the age of 14. Used Chainmail for rules, medieval warfare. got into D&D later that year. 1977, way before there ever was a Warhammer. The models in the Stranger Thigs are from the 80s, not the 90s. I had most of them in the 80s.
“Looking in the book because you don’t remember anything” That’s still me today 😞
Everytime lukas reminds us he is born in the 2000s my head explodes again. At this point i'm so convinced he is one of us.
I’m pretty sure the movie Ronin (the Robert De Niro one) had a physician who was making and painting a massive diorama and all the minis of the Ronin.
Fubar, Season 1 - Episode 3: About 20 minutes into the episode. Barry's house has a big old Space Marine 2 poster & quite a few glass display cabinets. Some 40k mini's present. Leman Russ and a Knight if I recall correctly.
There was a very good scene in the movie Ronin, where Robert de Niro and Michael Lonsdale talk about the 47 Ronin and Lonsdales character is painting a Samurai for his Diorama. It was quite a nice scene and one of my favourites from the movie.
That was art in its finest form. Lonsdale stole the scene. Iirc the kit used in the movie for the 47 Ronin and the castle actually exists and it's insanely expensive.
Nobody:
Squidmar: HEY WE HAVENT USED CAVILLS FACE IN A THUMBNAIL IN A WEEK TIME FOR ANOTHER
At least 1,5 week
@@SquidmarMiniatures still hoping he contacts you guys with anything else than a sieze and desist letter 😂
I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when the awesome nerds at Naughty Dogg worked on implementing wargaming inside their game world - they did a great job of making it feel like 40k, without being 40k!
There was a scene in "Inspector Morse" it is from 1993 entitled "Day of the Devil". The son is playing 40k in the shed. The sargent comments that he should try putting his Kataphraktoi on the flank.
First, really enjoying this series so excited to see more.
Of these armies, the conversions on the gargants are impressive but those knights are just something else. The freehand is truly impressive.
Thanks for sharing!
Great video guys, great fun to see
Train diorama in the Addams family! How could you forget Gomez trains!
Because that was a railway layout, not a diorama? And nothing to do with gaming?
@@thoughtengineto be fair some of these weren’t gaming related either
I was 11 when I finally got my mom to cave and buy me the Basic D&D box from the local book store. The Stranger Things scene was pretty spot on for me being an 80s kid.
There’s a sequence in the movie Ronin with a painted 47 Ronin diorama
Started with collecting Warhammer, Battletech and stuff back in about 1987/88. Started painting maybe a year later. There was no such thing as primer really, at least not like you having a primer for acrylic colors and you using acrylic colors today - I had all colors from the limited model range (mostly for train hobbyists, like Humbrol, etc..., and they were extremely thick! Like one coat paints 😅) I could lay my hands on, be it oil, enamel, etc... , unless you were a hobby specialist back then. Which meant some crazy owners of hobby shops themselves or fancy rich old guys doing nothing else or paying some pro painter... But for the common kid, like 15, 16 years old - there was no internet to exchange pictures/informations/..., we had exactly 3 TV stations. None of them would ever show something like that except maybe for a panorama view of a gaming fair!,
we (our local club, mostly played Battletech back then) played in organized local hobby clubs basically, met new people from different areas in specialist gaming stores, fares, tournaments, and contacted them later to organize a tournament style match.
Some of them, I remember one event especially in Erlensee (near Frankfurt, Germany) where the other club had a smithy, and that dude produced his own tools to mould models. 😅
And D&D, here in germany, you basically met people like in the movies. You meet a guy who just bought the game/or knows someone/or wants to play/or they're looking for more players.
And sometimes you got the interest from the odd advertisement (remember, 3 TV stations... - those adds would be in some extremely rare magazine, news paper, in some books at the end hinting at the games,...) or just simply the game stores. And those were rarely spread back then. I remember driving hundreds of kilometers to some... 😄
Is Emille wearing /threatining Lukas? Look at Emille's shirt, orange beanie deaths head. It's a subliminnal threat!!LOL!!
First time I saw something Warhammer related in tv was in "Enemy of the state" with Will Smith.
His son is reading a white dwarf magazine.
I was not ready to face the reality that the dude who wrote Pettson and Findus obviously knows a fair bit about Warhammer.
Wow i can't believe Lukas is such a young little 2000's baby
born in 69, i saw the birth of D and D
@@mynx_uk time for bed grandpa, jk
Excellent video! Another great movie that features miniature paintings and a diorama is Ronin (1998, Robert De Niro).
WOO HOO - Gotta Patreon Cameo at the end. Love ya guys!
Squat armoured train diorama GOOOOOOO!
If you haven’t seen the two DnD episodes of Dan Harmon’s Community you are truly missing out! The first episode is hard to find because online streaming platforms have removed it… is that good
There are so many epic Warhammer train diorama I'm thinking of now - please do this!
1:04 i miss armoury painter spray paint. Had the funky cartoon characters on the cover and my favorite fine powder like coating that holds paint exactly where you put it.
In Peep Show (british comedy) there's a reference to 'cancelling you out of shame like my subscription to white dwarf'
Wargaming featured in the following films and tv shows
Callan
New Tricks but just one episode
Shed of the Dead low budget film
There was a Wesley Snipes film where he had an ACW diorama. Murder at 1600
Man i have to get the Peterson and Findus Book for my Kids. ❤ Thanks for sharing and a Great Video as always!
In a Dutch Donald Duck pocket called: "de slag om Duckstad", in this pocket there is a story revolving around "Warbanger" miniatures that come to life.
I started D&D at the age of 9. And before that I played „Das schwarze Auge“ before I could even read. My older brother had to read for me!😂
Stranger things represented as 80s nerds, is fairly accurate. I started playing D&D 1979 at the age of 9, and never stopped since.
I started playing D&D around 10, iirc. My friend got the OD black and white box set for Christmas, and we started playing the following summer.
His Mom drove us into DC to see Ralph Bakashi's Return if the King animated movie when it first released.
Goid times, and daaaamn, I've gotten old.
I think the 2022 mini series on Netflix: Hold Tight has a character who paints minis, has a whole hobby room set up.
However, the first time I saw mini painting in a movie (and I am surprised it wasn't mentioned in your video) was 1998's Ronin with Robert De Nero, Jean Reno and Sean Bean. Lukas might give it a 0/10 or worse but it was the movie that sparked my fascination with minis I reckon. Has a character sculpting and painting minis for a diorama. Also a pretty good movie.
Also, in the Day of the Condor, it isn't trains, but likely Napoleonics that he is "painting".
You need to watch Boulder Creek Railway, he'll give you some resin pouring tips and tricks building boring railway dioramas haha
I so badly want to see you guys do a train diorama now! And not even cheat and do something 40K related. Honestly, its not something that I've ever been excited about before, but for some reason I badly want to see it now.😆
You forgot the advanced Dungeons and Dragons episode from community… that’s my vote for best representation of a group of dnd players complete with member of the group going rogue and becoming the antagonist
What a super nice Feel Good video 💝
The show Community by Dan Harmon (guy who makes Rick and Morty), season 5 like ep 15 or close to it, is the best DnD episode of tv i have ever seen
We gotta hit 10k likes! I want to see squadmar build a train diarama 😂
Rip haha
Can't believe you guys forgot about The Living Daylights! Admittedly is was Timothy Dalton and Lukas won't be a fan of the historicals but canons that fire, light and sound effects...and don't forget a gaming table that opens drawers by remote!
This was a fun watch 😊
damn, those illustrations at the end were sick!!!
I started playing dnd at 12yrs old, well 11 really. That was in the 80s. Kids can concentrate if they like what they are doing.
You missed a trick with the other South Park episode. "I mean who wants unpainted minitures?!"
The character Brad Whitaker in the 1987 James Bond film The Living Daylights has a massive historical diorama. I remember thinking it was cool at the time and it primed me to pick up Warhammer some years later.
Community episode was the best
Which one?
Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (season 2 episode 14) but it has been mostly removed from streaming platforms because Chang dresses up as a dark elf.
@@3vilash That was so weird, that show does so much crazy stuff but somehow Ken Jeong wearing blue face is where they draw the line. One of the best episodes of community
the Movie Blackberry about that old cell phone company has a couple scenes with old warhammer 40k stuff in it.
Instead of SpaceHulk let's do Spacetrain as in a moving diorama! However, there are so many miniature spinoffs for painting. Recently I found Star War metal figures, Starship Troopers, even before Lord of the Rings got so commercialized, my first few painted figures were dwarves and tree men, Ents and my diorama was melted colored wax on a wine bottle. That Ronin movie featuring the samurai diorama was epic though. I am looking through my South Park collection for that particular episode you guys showed. As far as Games Workshop and Henry Cavil, I am really hoping this will boost the hobby image. Yeah, CZcams did feature a few celebrities admitting their association with 40k and even Warhammer.
Lucas was born in the two thousands???? Brain melting!
The Big Bang Theory has some d&d, love this show
The best part about the South Park joke is that Tolkien is from one of the richest families in town, so he’s literally the only other person who could afford a 40K army.
the Icelandic film Virgin Mountain also contains several tabletop scenes :) cool video from you, thanks for that :)
Re: Stranger Things. 10 yrs old is not too young to play D&D. I was 8yrs old when I got D&D Basic and 9yrs old when I graduated to D&D Advanced and soon after AD&D. My friends and I were crazy about the game. 🙂
Sorry for the vague description but I know about an episode of a British murder mystery TV series that includes a side character who does tabletop wargaming. I can't remember if it was in an episode of midsomer murders or in inspector Lewis. I know there is an episode with a historical battle diorama in a midsomer murders episode but thats not what I'm thinking of.
Edit: After some digging I found the episode "The allegory of love" from the inspector Lewis series which includes the wargamer with his hobby shed and heavy metal background music. Since I wasn't able to find more than a short two minute snippet of said episode I'm not 100% sure if it is what I remembered. However that snippet interestingly shows amini that is clearly a Lord of the rings cave troll.
Maybe ithis is the episode I had in mind or maybe it's not and there is another episode, possibly from midsomer murders, that also includes a wargamer with a fantasy collection.
The episode in, at least I my memory, has a young guy with miniatures from a generic fantasy setting (no actual game mentioned likely for copyright reasons) and there is mention of elves. If I remember correctly there are several scenes that show his room (maybe it was a shed) that has a gaming table and miniatures on shelves. I distinctly remember the younger assistant of the detective actually being knowledgeable in the matter of the game and therefore able to connect to the character owning the minis...
The most serious love interest 'Mos‘ played by Nader Khademi in the amazing Norwegian movie Ninjababy plays Warhanmer as far as I remember.
You think those kids were too young for D&D? I started when I was 11, LOL! I was in one game and started running my own games as DM pretty much right away.
'Perun' the military analysis youtuber makes references to 40k in his videos from time to time. Dunno if that counts, but its cool
Henry Cavil deserves to play the Emperor
But they're doing 40k, not 30k. You want to waste him as a corpse on a throne? I mean, I guess they could use him in flashbacks,but I'd rather see him as a more active character.
Eisenhorn would be awesome, or one if the Primarchs or Custodes.
Eisenhorn is perfect and also a great story and gateway inti the universe. It’s detective story originally so people can understand that. Then you get to see more and more of the universe
@@jeffrobagman2834 I think they would have to do flashbacks so that the casual viewer can understand why the emperor is in the state he is in, in 40 K.
re: Stranger Things, it is the 1980s and some of those are OLD lead Ral Partha and before figures. FWIW I started D&D in the 70s when I was 9.
The old will smith movie “enemy of the state” the son has an old school white dwarf magazine in a few shots
Do you know around which time this is?:)
Film was from 1998, this is the scene here
I was wonder if maybe in a future video you guys could do a review on the gaahleri airbrush kit, the more expensive one.
I have read all the peterson and findus books with my kids, but I didn't come across the book with warhammer in it. Maybe I have to check it out.
You missed the part in Stranger Things where the Science teacher was painting miniatures In his garage.
We need a slice-of-life anime about a guy, who discovers for him a wargame hobby. Firstly, his friend shows him miniatures and proposes to play and buy some boxes. In the beginning, the protagonist is skeptical, but he chooses an army and tries to assemble some figures. And he likes it, he played his first game with gray plastic and bottle caps. He likes it. So he increased the number of miniatures and in the club saw some gorgeous paintings of the minis and tried to paint himself. with some struggle, he achieves good results. Then he discovered basing, kitbush, and other elements of the hobby. And, of course, the tournament. and everything is shown in full beauty, as anime do. and games could be some action scenes
That's it I'm building some battle mats that are just train yard switching platforms
“If your playing beastman, your gona lose”
Me who won 2 local tournaments using beastman.
yea what the fuck was that about - just joking abviously (beatmen are good tho)
@@tzeentishere Year BEATmen are ... good !?
One of the heighest scoring armies on the winning team during last years AoS Team Championship was Beastmen, and they haven't been nerfed a whole lot since then.
I play beast men and I've heard they're coming to 40k
It’s not modern TV but CZcams has a couple videos of Peter Cushing painting old figurines for wargaming, just search ‘Peter Cushing miniatures’.
Gotta give some respect to HG Wells and Little Wars, without old historics and Napoleonics Warhammer wouldn’t exist.
Great video and Archer is badass, now do that train dio using orks.
Great and funny video! A big one that you didn't mention was the Netflix show Fubar with Arnold Schwarzenegger there is a scene where the tech guy has a full size Primaris Ultramarine cardboard cut out front and center! Also a funny show
Lukas toughest Judge Ever 😂😂😂
Started playing Dungeons and Dragons, and painting miniatures, at age 11.
If your beastmen get outflanked by chaos dwarves you did not have sound tactics.
CSI Las Vegas miniature killer :D
Sven Nordqvist has a dedicated garage for 40k
I believe there was an episode of young Wallander where Warhammer miniatures were featured in a scene.
Ohh, do you remember what season/ep?
