Do not drill the turret weapons. Instead glue the magnets to the side of the weapon, right on the pin hole. You will have a bigger contact surface, but you need to shorten the center pin a little bit more to compensate the thickness of the magnet.

I did. Fight me.

Reprint is dumb why say theyre blood angels if you arent gonna at least give them a different iconography on at least one shoulder pad

It’s a crime you don’t have more subs, this video is helping me a lot with this model, especially finding all the lack of duplicate parts across sprues

I’ve seen ppl mount one of the guns to the top of the model, where it technically isn’t meant to go, but it still looks cool

You're supposed to use paper towel to get rid of excess water off the paper before you add paint to it. You can also wash the palette paper multiple times to re-use it for a few weeks. Btw - you soak the pallet paper for fifteen minutes in extremely hot water before using for the first time.

Wouldn't it be easier to just scratch bash 3rd chassis?

Looks BAD ASS""""""" You did a great JOB! Hope It claimed some Scalps on the Battlefield!

I'd have to see the full build from start to look at the area I'd put magnets,, but I bought 3d printed versions and didn't worry with it, but I could do it cause I paint and build minis full time all week

How long did you leave the epoxy to set before you tried to push in the magnet? Love the vid extremely helpful

When you were drilling at 22:59 was that because you had cut the ring of before you decided to use smaller magnets to fit in the ring? I was confused as you said to glue in the circular pin and then you started drilling.

To create holes in order to put the magnets in u can also use q soldering iron. In mycase the holes are a bit messy in the end and might need to patch with some greenstuff but it does the job and its cheaper than an electric drill imo.

You have link to the box you keep the magnets it.

Can u use greenstuff instead of epixy to make the magnets permanent?

What size were those magnets?

What size magnets did you use?

GOOD OLD DEATHWATCh!

Magnetize caps with green stuff and keep calm. Respect from Russia!

25 minutes of how NOT to magnestise your platoforms.

Man this kit seems miserable to try to get the most out of. Thanks for the video it’s a nice forewarning

I can see why people like Necrons.

Cool. Welcome back.

The old army painter paints did have a tendency to be quite weak pigment wise, and seperate a lot so often you had more medium than paint on your pallet. No paint is going to suddenly make any of us a superstar, but I’m sure that using these over the old ones means your experience will be more enjoyable as you won’t be fighting the paint all the time!

Welcome back!

I appreciate this video very much as it's the most up to date video with the current sprue set when it comes to the Dominus class and the changes that occurred with the 9th edition box for it. I do wish this video was more digestable. Perhaps an updated video with a shorter run time and a direct step by step would be more manageable.

Decent guide but oh my god is it unnecessarily long. You do not need to include yourself vacuuming your frigging workbench my guy. It's "Here's what magnets you need, here's where they go. You gotta drill this bit or sand this edge." Not "let me make it 40 minutes long." Aside from that, it's a decent video and one of the precious few guides to magnetizing a Castellan/Valiant that does assume people are gonna buy third party parts to replace the end caps or magnetize the elbows.

Do you think the 3mm army painter magnets would be strong enough for the arms?

Sometimes, you really need to use the paints yourself to really learn what is good or bad. I'm doing this myself working from acrylic you'd use on a canvas to citadel paint to speed painter. I used the zenithal priming and seeing what works and what doesn't.

The yellow was surprisingly tough to paint to get clean lines. It seems like it would be easy because the edges are raised but nope.

Very interesting video, thanks for your job!

Great video. I've been looking to start an imperial knights army and your videos gave me the courage to try and magnetize my knights.

Trying to start the Old World (a remake of Warhammer Battle) because I love classic medieval fantasy. I’m currently motivated, but there are no stocks available. It’s sad to say, but I’m quite sure I will move on to other things if I have to wait too long, and Games Workshop will miss my hype window for their product. Regarding the Old World, it’s a "new product". I’m really afraid that without the possibility to start at launch, they will never have enough new players to add to the existing battle players, hindering the growth of the community and not creating a sufficient customer base for this universe in the future. I will be sad to see this game drop again .....

Salt-of-the-earth-human. Thank you kind sir!

Amazing idea how to magnetize the hands. You saved me a whole world of trouble.

"Theres my widened hole,looks pretty gross" 🤣

awesome video, thanks brotha!

Welcome back.

Great video thank you. You saved me hours of grief

Great Job! Thank you for making it! LEan them to the Side. Hope you had fun playing them, and that they still Ride into the Dusty Night Slaying Xenos Scum! Salutes from a Deathwatch Battle Brother!

I am just over the beginner stage of building and I found this easy to do

i filled the hole with filling putty then drilled 2x 2mm holes (as far apart as possible) and filled them with 2x 2x1mm magnets. On the weapon i removed most of the tab leaving a small stub in the middle and again drilled 2x 2mm holes. The weight of the weapon is so small that the magnets can take that force no problem, you can even pick up the whole model holding the weapon without it slipping. The advantage being that you cant see the magnets i.e. it looks like the weapon is glued down.

Late to the party, but having build multiple knights I can say that EVERY knight model comes with instruction manual that has glaring errors. I have no idea how GW can be this massively incompetent, but I am 100% sure that nobody who has been in this hobby for a few years will disagree. GW is one of the most incompetent companies in the world.

Can I use a knight questoris magnet kit to magnetise this model?

I work as a consultant at a large firm and I've been there long enough that by now everyone knows I paint minis :)

Common Ground Games is the store we go to. We love it!

Thanks for the video! Always looking for opaque yellows and bright oranges (and light pinks) for my miniatures. Can never seem to get good coverage for those colors.

Thank god Jack black has shown me how to magnetise my crisis battle suits!

Funny, out of all the videos I’ve watched yours is the one that convinced me to buy it. I don’t paint minis, although it looks super fun, but I do other crafts and I am super excited for it. Thank you for the great video!

I normally dont comment on youtube but I am about to tackle building my first Knight and a Knight Castellan at that. It's a project for me to see what I can do after about a year into the hobby. Your video was a joy to watch, great humor and you have a great presence and voice for this. Looking forward to the next videos!

Solution im coming up with is to magnetize the middle well that holds the rocket launcher base. That way i magnetize the bottom of the rocketlauncher and the bottom of the wheel that goes in that well on the lascannon and bombard. You lose the ability to move the lascannon and bombard up and down but i dont mind too much. then for the faceplate one magnet in the middle just to hold it push fitted into the slots. Biggest annoyance is the lascannon battery, magnetizing it to the base is easy but the cable connection is pretty flimsy
