I've waited 24 years to finish this Wood Elf army that i got way back when i was 12 years old. The qestion is: is it possible to finish a old wold warhammer army in 24h hours?

Perhaps ? What do I get ?
how much will the whole set cost?
time lapse video or it didnt happen!
@@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 did you watch the video? 😅
@@SquidmarMiniatures I assume you dont know what time lapse means and therefore the importance of it!
hah imagine finishing an army
...nearly 3 years, and I'm still not done
1 and a half year, and I am not even done with my friends Mordheim possessed warband 😢
Sadly, It is not even because I have painted anything else instead, I just don't have the time atm....
I started in 2019 still working on the same army that I started with though I’ve worked on painting stuff from a couple other army’s I’ve collected but I’ve yet to finish a full box of models yet unless it’s a single character. Should have a painted 2k army in the next 2 decades or so
Honestly, I used to have this problem but genuinely just forcing myself to only work on TWO things at a time, try to make them different types of models in some way, wether it’s a different colour scheme or a different unit type. Also not buying anything new until everything I had was painted was huge.
I'm not even finished getting an army >.< I'm only at like 680 points on my tau army it IS fully painted what I have at least >.
I really like the idea of going back and doing the army you really wanted as a kid, colour scheme and all. Not worrying if it is a good army but just recapturing that imagination and love for the models you had as a child.
I agree. I really wish I could go back and repaint my Vampire Counts army... :(
24 year old army, 24 hours, came out 24 minutes ago. Nice.
Win
2024 too
Honestly I rather see an army or mini that you guys as artists are happy and proud of over sticking to the 24h mark to the dot. I loved the passion Emil had on this project and I loved the results!
Always hilarious that you think you’ll be able to get it finished in a 24 hour timeframe.
However, it works great as a flying start for the project and great that you kept at it. The result is awesome. 👏👏👏
Anyone else pause the video at Lukas’ free hand of the Emperor on a banner being carried by an Imperial Knight? Looks insaaaaane! Lukas = GOAT freehand.
There is a video on the freehand already published
Mustache!!!!! It comes, it goes, it's there , it's here, now it's no where!
Great fun! Such an engaging video - you made that 24hrs look like a breeze and didn't seem too conflicted when you made a decision to prioritise the minis. Good call and amazing results - love the resculpted abs and the bark on that treeman is terrific!!!
Lovely result, love to watch Emil paint, his style is so vibrant.
They all look amazing. I'm not surprised they took extra time to complete. Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for your videos man! You keep me inspired to keep going! Appreciate you brotha!
This is beautiful army! Everything here have a soul and passion! Thank you!
What is, “finishing an army”?
I'm rebasing and repainting my old dwarf army and I'm enjoying the journey a lot, I'm happy to know you abandoned the 24h challenge and just enjoyed the travel too ^^
I love these 24h videos, funny and marvelous job on minies. Thank you for every video you make, love it with painting mine minies during watching :)
24 hours, hummm, where are those new contrast paints 🤣🇬🇧🙏♥️
On the store shelf. GW gets no more support. Everything Black Rock touches must fall.
everything looks so good ! congrats !!! :D
The old Warhammer Wood Elves was my favourite army, next Dwarves. Nicely done Emil.👏👏👏👏
Would love to see you guys painting your Oldhammer Ork army, please make It happen!
I second this.
You guys are awesome, keep up the good work!
Congratulations! Such amazing classic wood eves!
Yeah, its hard to compromise the time spent painting the minis you love so dearly.
Awesome! I really wanna see what this whole army looks like!
Orange and green dragon is the best scheme ever, really glad you pushed through to the end!
Sweet! Really like what you did with those sculpted bases. I'm curious what people would have thought about this army in the 90s if it was sent back with a time machine. Mindblown by the volymetric painting or unimpressed with the natural colours?
That was cool guys. Love seeing the old Wood Elves and happy for you to see you finally finish them after 24 years ❤
Asså sick work man!💥💥💥
That army looks cooool!
Love seeing the old minis.
This was amazing, the Wood Elves were one of my favourite factions as a kid and that dragon is just so iconic. Cudos to you for finishing it all :)
Sick! Have fun with the old world!
Good job on simplifying the paint job in order to get all the models painted in the allowed time frame.
Looks great! I’d love to see more old hammer painted.
Hats off to you for pushing through and finishing this one outside the 24 hours. The younger you would be proud!
genuinely my favourite army of your yet
Very cool to see an army of old sculpts painted up fresh with new techniques!
Emil, the wardancers are not finished. They are still missing the talismanic tattoos!
I think two months is more than decent time span for the amount of minis and the painting level. Of course, if you want to use the army to play in old warhammer editions you need waaaaaay more minis, but that is OK
Squidmar painting oldhammer? Dreams come true ❤
Love the 24h hours marathoins guys, keep at it !
Would you guys consider doing an independant review of the the new army painter fanatic paint line ?
Where I am only these and Citadel's are easily available, I want to know if they are any good :)
Does the humidifier help the painting, or just the painters?
It kinda helps the brushes not dry out so quickly
Love the dragon. Puts me in mind of other 80's fantasy dragon art you might see in an old D&D Monster Manual.
Phenomenal work on gorgeous oldhammer
Nice looking army. Now you just need to get glade riders, the new war dancers, glade guard spears and Aleriel on her giant stag beetle. Then you will have a truely magnificent wood elf army. Who would thought these old minis would come up so beautifully huh?
Looks pretty great.
A 1 minute challenge would be nice. paint the base coats in 1 minute stop wait for it to dry then add the shades in 1 minute, you have a max of 5minutes to finish in total paint time.
You're a beast, a legend! A legendary beast, beast of legend!
Oh man, wood elves are my favorite Old World faction since I first learned about them
Now I dont feel so bad that I havent finished painting my Dominion box from like 3 years ago...
They look so good
More fantasy and old world please! Any update on when you’re going to carry on with the fantasy board? Also cool muzzy dude
Great job buddy
Amazing work as always🙌
Would be very interested in the way you model this rock bases. You use them a lot and very much love the looks of them. Could you maybe make a vid to that?
Owowow I have that treelord! Was fun painting!
well done lads!
I'm shocked at how good and somehow modern you made those old sculpt look
I had that dragon model, and the rider did look awful, but not as bad as one of the Legolas models, it looked like Orlando had downs
😂😂😂😂😂
best comment
I love those bases!
dammmmmm it looks so cool! Congrats wow wow wow, superrrrrrr
Så jäkla tjusigt att se min gamla favoritarme i old-school färger men med en ny take i lite mer modern stil!
Dang boy! You good!
I really appreciate the time spent to show off the Grand Reveal!
Getting the feeling that Emil has a Himalaya sized mountain pile of shame 😂
Great looking WHFB models! You should do more ToW 👍
I know sculpting has moved on and we can’t go back but I really love these old metal models.
good job , thx for resumen👌👌👌
hey Emil. personaly i think the dragon looks AMAZING! and the colour scheme is giving me huge dragon ball z vibes so in nostalge rates id say its top tier!
Oh... fourth Edition Sculpts. Exactly what I'm colleting at the Moment, to get an Vintage-Woodelf-Army which might be a little bit better Painted than I could Manage as a teen.
I started a dark angels army in 1988 and still haven’t finished it!
What?!! No tattoos on the Wardancers?
I really like your paint style.
I would like to ask for your experienced opinion using agitators on acrylic paints. Many opinions out there say to use stainless steel ball bearings yet others say no, due to the fact that these will only damage your acrylic paints when they rust inside. Other opinions suggest to use glass beads because they will not rust; but glass is sometimes not heavy enough as stainless steel to be a good agitator. Lastly, I have also come across others who suggest using volcanic rock beads as agitators because they are natural rock & will not damage acrylic paints. What are the best agitators You know of that will not damage acrylic paints?
Your wisdom & advice is greatly appreciated
James
Luv those classic Wood Elf 🪵 miniatures. Scouring eBay for those old models is something I would love to do. But I think it's a little bit beyond me. Maybe I will have to settle for their nearest modern equivalent.
Is there anything you'd have done differently to hasten the process if you had to do it again?
Many of those older models like the war dancer and the archers don't have a lot of detail nor do they have a lot of accessories unlike many modern miniatures where pouches, belts, bags, skulls, and other bits are just clogging the miniature. It looks like most of the work you put into it was actual work as opposed to how someone like myself might just slapchop/zenithal and then contrast with maybe a highlight or two over those.
Whoa Lukas that banner's freehand????!!!!! Youre crazy bruh holy freakun talent!!!
Is the dehumidifier needed for painting reasons or personal preference?
“Good luck with that Emil” sounds exactly like a quote from Napoleon Dynamite’s “Your Mom went to college” - fantastic Lukas!
Props for persevering
mooore of these kinds of videos 😭
You are painting god from Sweden. Best of the best.
I had a fairly large collection of metal Skaven in the '90s. But I don't know what the heck happened to them, last time I saw them was probably late in the '00s.
I've still got a large pile of plastic Skaven but they are mostly from Isle of Blood or later.
Well, except for my metal Skaven Blood Bowl team from 2nd edition BB.
Pretty cool but strange models but (yes another but) u needed to, very nice i guess i will have to do an old world orcs aswell
Emil now you feel Like one of us who don't have enough time to Paint.
Interesting video. Do you think GW minis have changed over the years? If so how? Sizes have increased? More or less detail? More accurate sculptures? Only know HeroQuest models from back then and what they do today (recently returned to painting mini’s) blew me away - even how they put them together. Interested in your thoughts. Don’t think you needed to do this over 24 hours though, painting them and the difference in sculpture, palate challenges would’ve been enough.
Looking forward to Luca’s video.
Thanks for the video. Do you guys start these at night or in the morning?
Morning:)
Orange and green dragon looks great. Still love the old sculpts.
The Treeman is fantastic!
That's some dedication to the channel! This looked painful
Nice army, is this a airmoisteriser on table?
Those Wardancers remind me of Slaine from the 2000AD comics, so they look awesome :)
11:47 theres a hair there x'D ... all of them looking awesome!
I like the Forest Dragon colors! Looks like Shenron from DBZ!
What are your thoughts on the new GW price hikes? I saw that foot note at the bottom of the article about Sweden getting hit with a 12-14% increase and immediately thought of you and your local shops.
It's really ass
Wood elves was my first army in 95. Actually managed to paint a 1000pts army back then.
Wood elves were my real choice first after the initial bretons in the first boxset game. My dryads were da bomb!!
I've recently finished my collection of oldhammer wood elves and started the task of painting them up.
I’m painting this army at the moment, mostly 4th Edition metal minis. It’s a slog, everything needs a bit more brainpower and work than usual for it to not look trash.
Can you please do a tutorial on how to paint Wood Elves like you did? Maybe on your second channel if you don't think the video will do well enough on your main channel.
aesome video!
Man, Emil being dead inside at 5:03 hurt my soul xD
does the humidifier spraying so close to your minis effect the paint at all? I've heard horror stories of people painting when its too humid out and ruining their kits.
Chef! 👑
You need to finish the army. It is great.
