That Baneblade is just the thing for getting you within sword striking range of the enemy.
Forge World. Expensive.
Hotel. Trivago.
Beef. Dinner.
Arby’s. Meats.
Pippin. Second Breakfast.
Amen
Every single video that you guys upload I get so happy and excited!!! Legit my favorite part of watching CZcams. Is when you guys release a video!!!!! Keep up the fantastic work!!!!!!!
Thats so nice! Thankyou
Every one of these lore dive paint videos crushes it. And you and Jen are great in screen.
Thanks for video Dave!! Much appreciated!
Thankyou I'm glad you enjoyed it! What should we delve into next?
@@TabletopTime oh maybe some rogue trader Era stuff? First dreadnought?
Not sure how it would it would blend with your alpha bois though.
As a small correction to the release history at 14:20 . The plastic Baneblade was first released only with the Baneblade and Hellhammer configuration (I had bought that kit twice during 5. Edition 40k). The "turretless" variants were released as a second kit later (2009 if I'm correct). The Rebox with all variants, das was shown in the video was maybe 2019.
That's the problem with these youngsters covering stuff which they weren't experiencing first-hand - there are always some inaccuracies. I had that Baneblade kit as well and it had far fewer sprues inside (and was much cheaper) than the current kit. I also had the Armorcast resin kit - the track units were cast in open molds with a dark grey resin and they were larger on the sides that fitted against the hull due to uneven thermal expansion at the mold opening. I never got to build either unfortunately due to life issues - at least these folks are getting to enjoy their kits
@@elrondorio Don't know if I would still count as a youngster with 34 years 😅. Yeah the Baneblade was definitly cheaper when I bought my first two. I'm actually not entirly sure if anymore if I paid 85,-€, 90,-€ or 95,-€ back than.
Today I learned GW really like messing around with any Baneblade related kits, and merging them together
@@AsterixCodix Yeah, with the new Astra Miltarum Release they repacked the Baneblade again, including a second Sponson Sprue because the model can be build with four sponsons.
happy birthday dave!!!
Cheers!
That color scheme is so cool! And thanks for bringing out the small one. Realising what the scale actually is, is hard on camera without reference!
(And YEAH! for using company material and time for painting a birthday present)
That metal painting technique is incredible! Also, I am immensely curious as to what kind of situation the Alpha Legion would deploy a super heavy tank. And how? Pretty sure if they reveal this tank you are already seven different kinds of defeated. Really enjoyed the video, great job!
6:20 when i got my hands on this issue (which i still have to this day) i got soo excited about the way those Ork and Imperial vehicles looked that i made my own 28mm versions using card stock and plastics. i still have them too. The Ork Battlewagon is a skirmish board in and of itself and great fun to roll onto the table :D
For future reference, Forge World has been more than accomodating sorting out spare parts for me even when I wasn't the purchaser. Usually the batch number on the actual box/bag and pictures of what you've got are enough for them to approve this sort of thing. I expect those parts were broken after the parts were checked from the weight of the other chunks of resin being jostled around in transit. I've had similar issues which are very frustrating.
Not really good enough though them shipping you broken shit at that price.
@@reddragon4482 As I say it's frustrating, but not much you can do with resin I suppose, it's a fragile material. Not much they can do when the stuff breaks during the journey from the store to you. Most 3rd party stores I've bought from have the same sort of problems with resin parts. Offering free replacements isn't ideal but I'm not sure what the alternative is, save getting the buyer to print the model themselves.
@@Rottenflieger. How much is bubble wrap lol?! No excuse. For the prices they charge they can pad the box and pieces better, it's ridiculous. This isn't a one off too, it happens all the time and they don't give a fuck and charge insane prices for resin, if resin is so expensive why don't they protect it more lol.
@@reddragon4482 Not sure what to tell you, every large kit I've got from FW has had the components wrapped, as well as the outside of the box. Some kits, like my macharius, did have damaged parts like in the video. Others like my spartan did not. Bubble wrap doesn't solve everything I suppose. It's not a great situation, but free replacements are free replacements. The amount of entirely replaced kits I've had is pretty funny when I come to think about it.
@@Rottenflieger. It's alright, shit happens lol. GW aren't going to change haha.
These hobby+history videos are my favorites from the channel, you manage to make them very informative without being boring. I hope the series continues for a long time!
I'm loving all the variations on Vallejo today!
And good lord, way to make the best out of a not-ideal situation! That gradient is d a m n beautiful.
The plastic kit released in the late 2000s only built the Baneblade. The box you showed and the options came out a few years later
Looks really good that simple nmm highlight is so effective great job, also nice to see you using a knife on those gates close to the parts 😀
You are smashing the awesome content out at the moment! Hope you have a nice Christmas off!
Great video, love the painting! And thank you for putting me off buying from Forgeworld while I'm still a novice to this hobby, such expensive kits with such big production issues would probably make me cry lol
I've seen mid winter minis do that white dot on the coils too and I still can't see how it's supposed to look good
Yeah, I agree. It looks completely out of place, and doesn't at all sell the idea that those coils are super hot.
The fact of this video came out on my birthday feels like you're wishing me happy birthday which I love
Dang! You can't argue with those results. It looks great I especially like the coils and your color choice👍🏻
Would be amazing to see some early edition (chaos) space marines painted up for your alpha legion! Could be a good time to explore their history
Wow, I am speechless. Amazing production quality and amazing paint job.😁
Thankyou - Glad you're enjoying the content!
You did such a great job Dave!
IT'S TABLE TOP TIME!!!!!!! LETS GOOO!!!
Happy birthday Dave!!!🥳🥳
You guys are AMAZING by the way!!! LOOOOVE you're content!!😁😁👌💯❤️
Amazing work! Though I noticed the hydra transfer still has a shiny border around it. Im pretty sure you can use a clear coat over the whole model to unify the surface and it will disappear.
Absolutely can, but not until I get those weathering pigments on! Unfortunate consequence of not getting to do that for this video!
Man, that thing looks AMAZING! Great work and a sweet, sweet paint job!
However, I must say, the more I see of the Forgeworld models on CZcams, the more I am appalled by the quality of the kits. Every single one I've come across on youtube had major issues with warping (which, ok, is an integral part of resin, I know, I've been printing resin models for quite a while now), broken or downright missing pieces. I really feel that for that price, we should expect a lot more in terms of quality control.
For decades decent small resin casting businesses never send out warped casts, the main cause of warping is demoulding to soon when the resin is still too soft, baisically FW putting quantity over quality.
@@kaneworsnop1007 Could it be a matter of model size? I've found that, at least in 3D prints, large, solid pieces tend to warp more than smaller or hollow pieces.
I love these WH history stories! Really makes the video that much more interesting :)
I love these Dave History and Paint videos! Keep it up guys!
Just bought an eldar Tempest myself, excited about it
Love this type of video, best one from you guys in a while
Fantastic work and thanks for the history lesson.
That nmm is really encouraging for a new-ish painter. It seems a lot more approachable than others I've seen while still looking incredible!
I care more about the history of the model, than the actual painting. But it's the combination that makes the video so nice to watch with a big cup of tea.
G.D. those non metallic paint job areas are just beautiful
I cant believe you actually made all of the trim NMM, I cant even do a single sword yet you can do all that trim! Absolutely inspiring.
beatiful piece ... congrats
Your exquisite coloration Dave reminds me of the 80's anime infused in Warhammer absolutely glorious gob
Amazing work!
Just two small things - the baneblades shown while you were discussing the FW early 2000s baneblade was the later plastic kit, and the original release of the 07 Apocalypse era baneblades was in fact 2 kits, the Baneblade/Hellhammer and then the 6 seige tanks in a 2nd box, these were repackaged into one box for all a couple years after
God that thing is absolutely beaatuful though your volkite looks amazing
Yay, more aussie table top stuff!
I built one of the original Baneblades from the instructions and templates in White Dwarf 132. The instructions were a bit dodgy and some of the templates were wrong but the finished tank is still pretty good.
I drove from Ann Arbor, Michigan to a hobby store in Kalamazoo to get a copy of #132 when I heard of this article (it had already been out of print over a year.)
this is so cool, I love learning and exploring further into the hobby. A little thing that i've noticed tho, is that he first describes the tank as an Emperor's Children tank, but later moved on to calling it an Alpha Legion tank. Or perhaps this was just the Alpha Legion purposefully trying to confuse me. Who knows.
I was just joking because it starts out being painted emperor's children purple - definitely alpha legion
I was getting all ready to jump in with "the Baneblade and Shadowsword were the originals". Even as an Epic addict from 30 years ago I'd forgotten the Glaive and Falchion names and not put 2+2 together with the Space Marine tanks. Now I want them both!
Hey guys love the channel. What you guys do is so so mind blowing and inspiring.
But.
I have a tip.
When using the smoke in the reveal slow the footage down 30% and it'll look more real
I only just noticed this now, but in the showcase shots, I really like how you tried to address the poor-quality control of the broken bits, by painting over it in such a way to make it look like it was battle damage as well.
I love the history parts of your videos!
NMM really effective - thanks for the hints and tips
Brilliant work!
This is my favorite SM tank next to the Land Raider. I love big fat plasma guns!
What an incredible amazing job!! :)
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Yes a tank video! Loved it!
That tank looks awesome!
An NMM superheavy - that's a first!!! Kudos for the patience
Been digging these wargaming history lessons.
I know it's a been a while, but you can get clear color shift coating of various hues and spray those on at the end, after you've done your other blending and before your weathering
Very nice! Alpha Legion is apparently very strong in Horus Heresy Meta atm too.
The DIY Baneblade was actually in WD 132 (December 1990). I never tried building the thing myself but I did know a fellow back then who was a pretty accomplished modeller & scratch builder. He tried building one and it turned out that the plans were wrong. Not sure exactly what was wrong with it. I do know he never finished it.
Yes!!! Plz more vehicle videos!!!!
The kit is great i bought my first superheavy earlier this year. I went for the fellblade and my club had a huge heresy game where the fellblade destroyed soooooo many tanks before finally sucumbing. Ended up in a technical defeat as the other guy had a squad left on centre target which i was gutted about but i have lots of anti infantry and anti tank for the new years remach im hoping to take the victory this time
Holy smokes! Daves history lesson brought back some memory fossils. I recall drooling all over the first Forge World catalogue in my local rpg/hobby store (NOT a GW store) and how i totally lost my shit when i turned the pages to the Baneblade.^^ Aah, good times.....
pls can u not use bad words thx
Video 41 of asking for the Thunderbear cavalry and the Storm bear rider? Punny Name still needed. Also, these would use the Thunderwolf cavalry and Stormrider statblock.
"I love this flaming hot cheetos gun"
"It loves you"......pure gold, lol!
Dave you should really paint over the decals with matte medium, because out of the box the decals are way to shiny and stick out significantly.
Other than that stellar paint job!
Looks dope!!
Forge World. The reason why I learned to build out of bits and plastic card.
Alpha Legion Super Heavy Tank - how does it even work? "No, it's totally not a superheavy tank, and I'm totally not Alpharius..."
Still Have a Armorcast Shadowsword around someplace I played in 3rd Edition.
I still have that WD with the Baneblade template plans and still want to build one 😅 With all the spare guns and crew figs, various resin extras etc available nowadays it would look great (and still be cheaper than GW (I do have a couple of their Baneblade models though 😊)
I'd quite like one of legion super-heavy tanks but then I'm almost certain now they're all gonna be in plastic within a year. On the plus side I do have 2 Spartans, a Land Raider Phobos, a Kratos and a bunch of other smaller ones.
Perhaps! Hard to say but it does seem possible! Especially with the Typhon, although it is a lot smaller and built from the Spartan kit.
Only a win if they do, maybe not all variants but I could definitely see a fellblade getting a plastic kit
@@TabletopTime it would be quite nice if they did upgrade kits for the base tanks tbh, but that's because the Typhon looks cool but I also have an unassembled Spartan here so if I could just buy the massive cannon bit I'd have a Typhon.
That said I could just shove a bog roll tube in the front and slap some leadbelcher on. That's how we did it in the 2nd edition days.
Amazing work. The only choice I do not understand is the battle damage. I am of the old school, rhinox hide for corrosion/anti corrosion primer, lead beltcher or similar colour for freshly damaged steel underneath, and then maybe a thin coat of fireseeker orange over the top for active rust, like the moisture has gotten to it overnight in humid conditions, or it's been on operations for a bit and no-one has gotten to addressing the damage. The black looks great on the smaller scratches and bullet holes, don't get me wrong, but that big gouge on the side. Makes me think someone or something could be looking back out. Which, hell it is a chaos vehicle, so that brand of creepy shit is right on.
It's Tankletop Time! Tabletank Time! Tabletop Tank?
Need a counter for all the different pronunciations of Vallejo 😄
Holy shit your birthday is also on the twelve? Nice! Happy Birthday!
"Everything is Content " 🤣🤣🤣🤣👌🏻👍🏻 i laugh so hard
Love your videos and Dave chaos fan as well as guardsmen when you make trainer guard made give tips for home brought states for custome arms that would be fair
the history is really nice
Pretty sure I’d consider this top 5 minis of the year
Hey, I knew the Armorcast guys. I used to run into them at conventions in California.
I’ve always been astonished by the price of Forgeworld stuff, I’m an armour modeller and I own a tank that dwarfs this vehicle for 1/5 of the price in fact I have an aircraft carrier almost as long as my kitchen table that costs 1/5 of the price, if i sound ignorant it’s just because I’m confused why forgeworld kits are so expensive
Now add a Land Raider as a trailer, think Snow-Cat.
Plus a fusion engine conversion.....
Really weird the Baneblade doesn't have that already done to it, what with those land-objective-marking fusion engines, set, that happen to be on the right scale for the Baneblade.
So, figure out a Fellblade/Land-Raider setup, for fusion power.
Noticed how many variants exist of that baby?
Steal it's gear, like the AA turret, command upgrade, hover propulsion, ect, ect.
O and check the Mechanicus models, you can get Fallout Protectrons and TOS Thunderbirds it's MOL.
The Space Marines might be modded to have some Fallout, Starcraft & Iron Man mkI, armor looks, added to them.
As for that flying troop-transport, Batman (Justice League) Flying Fox, paint it black, basically.
Still, nicely done, good paint job.
Very good paint job.
It *is* my Birthday. So that kinda took me by surprise. Thanks y'all!
5:45 Rutger Hauer dealing damage.
I need the name of that music a minute in, it's so catchy.
The idea of a Bane blade being a scout tank implies that it can go at speeds close to 90 km/h which is pretty funny
You know how Terminator Armour was originally just mining suits? Mad if Rhinos were just the dark age of technology's equivalent of a tradie ute
Crazy vehicle.
How about a lore video on the Alpha legion itself?
So make up nonsense for 20 minutes, then at the end say "All of this was a lie" in a moody voice and act like its really cool ;p?
0:41 you need to get that sensor cleaned, people. I can’t unsee these splotches! xD
Edit: haha, instantly regret the comment!
The banter in the voiceovers is everything I never knew I needed.
🎊Flaming Hot Cheetos Gun 🎊
Nice job, but slap some matte medium over those transfers to get rid of that glossy sheen.
is it just me or does Dave say this is going to be an Emperor's Children tank at the start???
Didn't you see how purple it was
What’s the difference with forge world models? What makes them different from the normal models?
The designs were slightly different to the later GW plastic kits, in fact the 'Forgeworld' Baneblade and Shadowsword models shown in the video were actually the GW models and not the Forgeworld ones. Forgeworld models are aslo cast in resin rather than injection moulded in styrene and often quite badly moulded at that, I own a Forgeworld Mars pattern Baneblade which I bought over twenty year ago but never built due to the numerous instances of serious distortion and mould slip on the parts. For an experienced modeller willing to invest a lot of time and effort to make a model look good, Forgeworld are a good choice, for a gamer who wants something that builds up fast and looks good straight from the box then it's safer to stick to the GW plastic kits.
Happy birthday
I had a Baneblade made by Armourcast during second edition. Forgeworld didn't even exist back then.
That dates it between 1991-1998 - but I couldn't find when armorncast actually released the baneblade kit! I'd love to know
@Tabletop Time I ordered my amorcast baneblade roughly around when I was 18-19 which would put the date at around 1995-96. I still have the box but the only date it has is a copyright of 1990.
so, the resin kit comes with the bane blade chasse? like the khorn lords of skulls with the legs?
I built one of those White Dwarf Baneblades but I’m pretty sure it was in WD 124 and I built it from Matt board not plasticard.
Also, why do you do edge highlights without holding your brush sideways.
you know watching this a second time, I feel like an idiot for wiping my screen now...
I ended up with a Falchion for my Iron Hands army I wish for the price the directions where better I had to watch quite a few videos just to get an idea on how to even build it and one video it was built wrong.
Somehow the pronunciation of vallejo improved in this episode.
Time for some lore and history
I can see the baneblade design
