"In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war. A war that is not fought only with weapons. The war of faith. And so champion of Black Templars chapter must stand against one of the greatest enemies of God-Emperor - dangerous Word Bearers!"
I'm an amateur and an enthusiast, I don't make a living from this job.

Please look on pages of this two artist that help me a lot with this work:
/ orniris - Great painter, who can draw you favorite custom characters!
/ legiosymphonica - Great composer, who compose music from warhammer 40K.
/ artwork_of_warhammer - My favourite IG page for daily Warhammer artwork.
This is my fourth animation from the world of Warhammer. And at the same time it has the first largest and most complete. Working on it took less than ten months and brought me a lot of experience, which I want to use in other projects.
Don't be afraid to leave a comment, I appreciate the healthy criticism and feedback from the community is important to me and can show me what story to start next.
Music in animation is from these artists:
"Light in Dark Places" and "Efge of Remorse" by Scott Buckley
/ musicbyscottb
"Dark Trinity" and "Who is your God" by CO.AG Music
/ @co.agmusic
"'The Army of Minotaur" and "Dragon castle" by Makai Symphony

Thank you :)
This.
Facts
Truth!
Games workshop act like fucking idiots, but let's not put this down to simply better because those clowns produce high cost 'high production value' commercials/clips that somehow lack any soul or fucking compelling storytelling unless it's in a fucking DOW game or what not.
This is better because it fucking nails it, the Krieg marines are perfectly rendered here, except the guardsmen would have flicked dirt up when he parried that chain blade. Extra weight is better than meeting it with a fine edge and kriegs lads while aren't afraid to die are very, very committed to killing their enemies.

@@anoninunen But will you be reinstalling the chapter keep?
@@Onua118 - Eh, just make sure that your consecrations are up-to-date and regularly check whether your astropath's teeth have melted. The Emperor's Protection is regularly updated with new tests for corruption added regularly. If your fortifications were breached, run a full scan and purge any unknown texts of corrupted servitors. If incursions persist, you may need a full reinstall - a good reason to keep an armored reliquary separate from the main rooms of the shrine. Reinstalls may automatically include chapter updates, if Legion norms are upheld - if the chapter despise librarians or the Primaris of Guilliman (edit: codex compliance is rarely included as an automatic update, review updates carefully and use a reputable source), these may change chapter doctrine and require later purges.
Your lifetime is the Emperor's currency, so spend it wisely on only the required fixes and send some Throne-gelt to the techpriests and menials that assist in returning your mechanisms to working order.

I love that the swordfighting is relatively realistic; by that I mean the stances, the lack of overswing, the opponents are trying to control the other's weapon instead of just flailing wildly like a whiffle bat.
Fighting scenes are extremely hard to animate and this guy did an incredible job indeed!
I stopped to watch just because of it. Absolutely gross fighting. They using only wrists instead of arms and whole body, this is just pathetic. I fenced better when I was 5. Now I'm 41 and still doing it, so I know what I saying)

Ten years ago tis would have been top of the line animation and cost millions of dollars, today is made for fan in their free time and that makes me love it even more

I honestly found it a little rough around the edges, but one thing I cannot praise it enough is the heart it has

Spoiler warning???? Come on man you ruined it for me.
Nah, the templar is probably still alive. Space marines have a transplant that allows them to go into stasis after taking a fatal wound. Meaning? Dreadnought.
Incredibly well done. That texture work is next level, the voice acting is impactful in the case of the Templar and creepy in the case of the Word Bearer, and the melee combat is really well choreographed. Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks for putting this out there.
Thank you very much Brother... Iam glad you like it even with that mistakes there... Iam allready working on another big big project :) for 6 months and fo several others still will work... So stay tuned! More info is on comunity page of this YT channel... Stay safe :)

@@GabrielChristtiane Well done brother.
This was beautiful. Other animators show the power of the Astartes, and yet you managed to show the humanity from a champion of one of the most zealot and unforgiving chapters there are. Bravo.
Ah :) Thank you for that :) Iam realy glad that peopla found these feelings in this animation :)
Aside from the lack of minor details in the department of animation such as momentum and few clunky looking movement. The amount of details in the art department is just astronomically astounding. I almost felt like I was watching the astartes series at the beginning. Truly a masterpiece worthy to stand with Helsreach, Death of hope, and Astartes among the WH40k fan animations. Keep up the good work!
oooooh :) Thanks a lot :)) Its realy cheers me to read thist!! :) If you like it, shere it for you friends.
More will come in time, so stay tuned! (Here or on IG ro FB to see progress - links are in description)
Yeah it's the momentum that needs to be mastered to get to astartes level but definitely at the start hallway grenade sequence that was brilliant.
So, I thought that at first, but these aren't ninjas. The more I saw, the more accurate it became. Both of the weapons were two handed, and they were both being wielded with one hand.
Go grab a 30lb metal rod that is 5ft long and hold it at the center, then swing it around a bit to strike something. It actually looks EXACTLY like it does in this. Short movements, jabs, minor twists, parry is easy, though, since that requires the least strength to accomplish. I've used both two handed greatswords and two handed war hammers that are historically accurate. The khorne guy has something ahistorical, but only in the dimensions of the hammer part, which is usually more like a real hammer in size. The spike is correct. Obviously the greatsword requires less strength to use, but the chaos marine makes up for his heavier weapon with more strength and a center grip.
Yes, its fictional, but two medieval knights would fight with the exact same moves if they had appropriately scaled weapons. It just looks fake because it isn't cinematic, so we never actually see it. Check out Scholargladitoria, Shadiversity, Metatron, or anyone they recommend if you want the real shit. HEMA, Historic European Martial Arts.
@Darkmaux 4real Remind me, which anime kills everyone, including the main character, at the end of the first episode?
@@GabrielChristtiane Hey just FYI to add to his coment, if you have a 30 series RTX card it is capable of motion capture for animation (if it is available on day 1); that will remove some of the "stiffness" in the animating and make it more realistic.
I know everyone always says stuff like this, but the weight of the items is so accurate. A bolter firing a coke can sized round, a grenade being tossed like a wiffle ball by an 8ft superhuman soldier.
Hailing all the way from Africa; THIS IS BEAUTIFULLY SPIRITUAL. I truly wish you the very best in not just your future works but may they be amplified with serious financial support. Don't change the spiritual angle you took in this incredible piece of art; God bless
Even a Man who has nothing to give, can still give his Life for The Emperor.
Reminds me of the Halo Novels, they tell the SPARTANS to ensure if one of their own died, that the life they gave was well spent, and not wasted.
@@LockeLynx that's dark...
@@maxhodge7149 it's even darken when you remember that the SPARTAN-II'S were all kidnapped 6 year olds.
The SPARTAN-III program had even more moral problems, but at the very least when the UNSC made them (and NOT ONI) they gave those who they deemed suitable for the project the element of choice. Many were expendable and were available because they were War Orphans, but at least the UNSC gave them the choice to walk away or seek vengeance and defend humanity, highlighting that once you say yes, you can't exit the program.
It's a piece of true art
:D Thanks you FBI :D
So you don’t just prowl Baldermort
Now FBI go arrest those Hentai lovers
I was just listening to Baldermort's 'cast on the Black's "The Emperor's Champion" and you captured everything he said about them. The holy WTF flood of imperviousness. Great artwork, and I loved how combat was close, because that was a bigassed hammer. So good, brother.
Thank you :)) Glad you like my work :)) and btw if you look on my video spirit of sanguinala, you may heard someone famous there ;) just try it
Thank you and stay safe Brother
The last part made me tear up this was one of the best fighting scene i seem
Iam really, really glad you like it :) Thanks for watching.
Stay tuned for more :) Allready working on bigger project :) Stay safe, brother
That whole “what is your duty” bit was really powerful wow
Turn 3:
Apostole and emperors champion close combat turn 3
Apostole: *rolls only 6*
Templar: *rolls 3*
WB player: huh, your templar sucks in combat, on next turn he'll die by my apostole.
BT player: try to roll it again.
:D :D You get it right man! :D
The devotion and faith in 40k is what brings me back. Maybe its the Christian in me but seeing someone so devoted to their God(even though it's technically false in the lore) and humanity, that they'd die fighting what equates to literal demons, is heartwarming and tear-jerking.
Well its same for me :)) so i fully understand you :)
@@GabrielChristtiane Gabriel, you did a WONDERFUL job. As a Christian, I adore this. You are doing a good work and I always see as Warhammer 40k as a metaphor for Christianity. God loves you and the work you do, using this form of art to demonstrate faith. We love you, brother.

Rest well, brother. You made the Emperor proud to call you son.
I like how the Word Bearer's grill is moving at 5:19 and again at 6:03 as it matches how chaos space marine's armor can warp with one's body and.... well pretty much become apart of it

Funny how Emperor always helps only after you have been beaten, crushed, stabbed , humiliated and suffered irreversible mortal wounds. Then he asks you 'Whose your Daddy'
I mean the imperium better be happy he still lives in constant agony to keep the fucking astronomicon going. If one day he stops or dies and doesn't come back to keep it functioning that's the death of the whole of the imperium right there

I'd like to add that I think the Word Bearer was really, really well characterized and very well done, especially the voice work.
Iam very glad you like it ;)
This is truly amazing! Warhammer content is best when it's top tier like this, well done Brother, thanks for all the effort you put into this!
Models a textures are fantastic, sound design is convincing, and setting is spot on! Truly amazing what you've done here!
(Also excellent job on the chaos marines! Mutations are amazing! Accurately shown as well, mixing with the power armor and disturbing as ever!)
Ohh :)) Thank ypu very much! Iam glad you like my work even that Iam just a amateur :) if you want stay tuned for more this year. I allready working (6months) on another big project (bigger then The Faith) :))
Again, thanks foe watching.
Stay safe brother
Brother, thank you for giving us this. It's beautiful.
Now imagine this with professional dubbing. It would jump from a solid 9 to a hard 10. Amazing work, incredible art and honestly great animation for the most part. The effect on the Word Bearer's Mouthpiece was perfectly creepy. Loved it when the Emperor's Voice came from the statue.
Thank you :) Some people wants to re-dub this :D So maybe in some time there will be second version :D Sadly for this project I had no other option then dub. it myself... But next time...Next time will be better :)
@@GabrielChristtiane that’s actually really impressive! That you did everything including dubbing yourself! 10/10, the fact that it featured the black templars moved it from a 9/10 to 10/10!
I actually like the dub as it is, these are soldiers, breed to kill and die killing, not for fancy speeches, so its quite realistic that their voice and speech is just a little clumsy and it doesn´t lose one bit of emotivity.
@@GabrielChristtiane It was perfect!! It had a natural believable quality that touches your heart. Your voice is right up there with Sean Pertwee and John Hurt from the last GW Warhammer 40K movie. Bless you Sir. I wish you many, many years of success
@@grillodofus I think just more how deep it is portraying how big they are. A voice mod might work.
You fought well brother, now you can rest in the light of the Emperor.
That's an awesome work mate, this animation is so cool, thanks for sharing it.
And I thx for watching it :) Shere it further for the glory of the Emperor!!
Awesome Work! Very well done mate, give me chills!
Let the flames of our faith devour the heretics!
The feels! This was an impressive piece of work! Thank you!
I thanks to you for watching my old work :))
Glad you like it
The Pros:
Amazing scenery
Texture work is spot on
Models look great along with the designs
Sound Design to an extent sounds goods
Grimness and darkness, liked that little twist on the fallen hero head cliche
Cinematography was good but could also do some work with it feeling a bit more fluid rather than a stiff rail line.
Choreography is passable but could do some with some work, best do that in practice with your cinematography.
The Cons:
The movement is a bit too static, it doesn't have that natural fluid nature to it but rather moves from one pose, stop, then to the next pose.
Voice Acting can be described best as mumbling, i mean no disrespect but maybe boost the audio a little? Maybe try and normalize the volume of your voice lines to your music so people can hear them better.
Audio mixing is very sudden, one minute someone is speaking and then a nanosecond later we got this super pumped music piece out of nowhere. No sort of fade in or build up or anything to allow it to link better.
Apparently theirs meant to be a plot? What plot?
That end part of the fight feels like a anime, suddenly able to kill three marines no problem but prior was getting his ass beat like his enemy was just their to toy with him. All cause of this unknown super power that comes when the hero needs it cliche.
Conclusion:
I feel the passion and i'll give it a A for effort but honestly, i feel you may need to bring in a second person to help with sound and video editing and to act as a second voice when discussing how you wish to present the animation and such. Overall, i'd say the animation is C grade, not great, not bad, nothing like Astartes but nothing to a gmod animation so hopefully you take this criticism with a grain of salt.
Ohoho... Thx a lot for these feedback man... Its gold! I will surely save it and will compare it with my work, so next time I can miss these mistakes. Iam still learning this stuff (like 3 years now?) So iam glad for some criticism, because that is the way :)
For next project I want o hire some native speakers, etc. So step by step.
And in fact I just want be cliche in this video :D Because I love cliche storyes... But I have in mind next big project that surely not be this way :)
Well and the plot?? Just simple... two faiths that have one roots and that the strong faith bring victory...
That sick ass knife throw at the end bothers me lol. Traitor SM should have survived that. And yeah the movement is too stiff kinda takes me off the immersion. Its unfair to compare this to Astartes but aspiring WH40k content creators should learn from that.
@@LtGeorge01 I was comparing it on a quality scale with Astartes being the top thing that you basically cannot beat and a gmod animation is well, rock bottem, or as low as you can get for all i know. I was claiming his animation to be in the middle ground of the two qualities.
You could try doing a casting call for voice actors, I'm sure the community would love to be part of something this damn good!
I really loved it but I agree with the comment, the sound design could use some work but I loved the "wanna try rolling again?" Part shit cracked me the hell up🤣🤣🤣
I'd like to add my opinion in terms of cons, as the pros line up with what you said.
Much of the combat lacks impact because there is a severe lack of vfx.
Not even showing damaged armor or injuries, the act of clashing itself miss some realism.
There is no sparkles when swords clash, bo dust raised on rubble scattered around when these mighty warriors clad in heavy ceramite crash against walls or fall to the ground.
The way they are displayed currently, you are just showing two objects aligned next to each other, without no clear sign of how much strength is put behind the blows.
Hope I rendered my idea and that ot might be useful.
10/10 in terms of effort though, the emperor protects!
Damn dude that was legendary AF, is it just me or are these fan made shorts getting as good if not better in a lot of ways than animations made by some of the biggest names in the industry, Gabriel Christtiane (anyone and everyone else involved) keep up the amazing work. You never know who'll be inspired amongst all the thousands and thousands of people that see this, maybe the next great storyteller even, maybe the one that finally makes us a kick ass live action WH40K full length movie, a boy can dream can't I.
Totally agree with you. Still havent figured why Hollywood ain't done this yet it would be a massive hit 💯%
@@seanbruce7255 Hollywood ruins everything so it's best they leave Warhammer untouched so they wont corrupt it or manipulate it to appease all those idiot SJWs.
How gripping. How thrilling. Completely enjoyed this. Great project you guys did here
this is absolutely incredible. the animation is great. but the story boarding and overall direction and cinematography is very impressive as well. 10/10 this is marvelous!
Really?? :) Well I thank you so much! Its really cheers me that you appraise my work because Iam just a amateur wit passion... Thank you for you comment :)
