Can I COMPLETE a 40k Knight in Under 24 Hours?

[@pjdlol]

I’m not sure why this is in my recommended as I don’t do warhammer, but I wanted to take this time to say I’m 100% impressed with people who can paint these things, it’s quite amazing what they can do

[@iv_devin_vi7630]

Odd. This is my exact situation. Recommended but never seen a warhammer video. I also completely agree!

To be fair to the knight castellan, adding more of everything without considering the ramifications is exactly how the Imperium operates

"3 hours built primed and painted" And here I am, thinking that taking 2.5 hours to get my 5 Grey Knight Interceptors posed right was an accomplishment

[@essex3777]

You can paint a Knight in under 24 hours but will you be satisfied with the paint job is the question.

[@jacobletts2043]

Interceptors are a challenge of their own depending in if you use the clear flyer stick or another means. Tho his knight pauldron hanging armor plate things are stiff and not flowing with the posture of the knight. Its the little things

[@invictakaizeros7821]

Still is imo, only by the grace of the man-emperor can someone be a determined as that

Took me 2 hours to build my first modela simplish 40mm tank in WW3 Team yankee...

[@Xiph86]

Watching this with my 5 year old son, he wants to start playing. Then as soon as you revealed the finished Knight my 4 year old daughter shouted "OMG it's so beautiful" now she wants to start playing lol. In a few years when they're able to make them and play I'm gonna go broke.

[@Fallenstartheone]

eh at that age the interests change rapidly , just tell them 40k went out of business sadly or something.

[@scottretford1074]

A SLA (resin) 3D printer would go far. Initial investment is high (~$400 USD for a small 6.23" printer + wash/cure station), but one bottle (1kg, $25) of resin got me proxies of 4 combat patrols, 2 additional kill teams, an ork battlewagon, and a few decent sized terrain pieces.

[@Folfah]

Careful. My dad tried getting me into it and it passed fast. I still love watching and all that though.

[@PrettyPinkPersephone]

Just wait til their older to bring them to warhammer nights. Idk if it’s universal but the local ones are all guys in their 20’s pounding alcohol, swearing, and explaining lore while they play. Not exactly a great place for kids

[@Rocknoob49]

​@@scottretford1074 keep in mind that MSLA requires a lot of aftercare (cleaning, curing, sealing) and protective equipment, ventilation and safe storage of gnarly chems. Not sure how i'd tackle that with kids around.

[@LamplighterMinis]

For a second I was like “nah, tinting ain’t it” but that purple actually has a kind of worn and bleached look that I really like. Kudos.

[@nds711D]

I feel like a lot of channels skip over the time it takes to build and prep it, so thank you for doing that.

[@Khan-vv9fv]

the moment where he repeatedly said "this is so cooolll" I FELT THAT this was so wholesome and these moments are what i love about building and painting

[@kubekzpiciem]

The old knight looks like an actual miniaturised machine, the new one looks like an art project if that makes sense :) I myself prefer the less color popping, less obvious edge highlighting grim-real look. Both are great works!

[@Lokitellus]

For me I want my knight to be the centerpiece and really extravagant due to the lore for my army

[@JayAndNightASMR]

I'm glad knights are getting new rules to make them easier to put in armies. Some of my favourite models

[@FIRSTNAMELASTNAME-zt4kf]

Im honestly wondering if I can some how fudge a knight themed around my carcharodons army well into the army. (Yes carcharodons there different and will stand out a bit. Plus I love how overly edgy there lore is) I probably can I'm already gonna fudge some grey knights models into it as like chapter master body guards purely a cool looking fluff project. (I got some old ones like so old the box still has bolt gun metal as a paint suggestion on it for dirt cheap $33.00)

[@timunderbakke8756]

Yes, I have visions of a Knight alongside my Thousand Sons. An ancient war machine named Anubis. Original? Probably not. Cool? Most definitely.

[@JayAndNightASMR]

@@FIRSTNAMELASTNAME-zt4kf I'm sure you could make a mega shark themed one, or even something like a Jaeger

[@stylesheetra9411]

I wish I would find knight cool but they look too wonky for me. hard imagine them walking

[@poptartsmcgee1992]

This year I bought and magnetized a knight preceptor that I call “The Baron.” With school and sports eating into my free time, it took me 3 months to finish him. He’s one of my favorite models and easily my largest project.

[@Capzielios]

Some tips for Oyumaru. It works best when you let the silicone sit in properly boiling water for a time. It'll become extremely soft and you can cast really great detail with it. Second is using Miliput to capture the detail. It's softer, and has a much finer grit that Green stuff. Either way, The work you did looks awesome.

it's not even the biggest *knight* you can get, there are the Cerastus and Acastus Knights too.

[@bjornthefellhanded5655]

He’s right though,he said “one of the biggest models you can get” Tell me how many Models there are in 40k Scale that are bigger than that Knight, even including stuff on the Epic Scale and Adeptus Titanicus that are still being sold from GW. I guarantee it’s not a very long list, at most I’ll guess and say it’s perhaps around 80 individual Models.

[@Interstate_78]

[@DarkSoulsReject]

I have to agree that knights make a great addition to a collection because after I built and painted mine I've been very proud of it

[@archaicStargazer]

The color scheme makes me think of stained glass, fitting in real well with the medieval vibe that the Knights have

[@MestreGuilderiusLCB]

14:35 That's is exactly how I ended up using TAP Speedpaints :D Black primer + light grey zenithal, and one to 2 thin coats of Speedpaints and, BOOM ! Nice piece of work done fast :) Painted around 30models in less than a week with this technique (and I'm not a full-time painter, only painting when I have the time^^) :) Great Job !

[@JoeFlamenco]

I’m getting one of these for my birthday today! So it’s perfect seeing it built by a professional!

[@MagicianSul]

Great work! I took 3 days to build mine but the longest working session was about 8 hours on day 1. Plus - I started feeling sick on day 3 from all the plastic dust and glue fumes. And at the last moment I realized that I don't have the right magnets for the arms so it took 2 more days to get and mount those. Right now it stands on my shelf ready for painting. As I don't use the airbrush I expect it to be a week long painting session.

[@benxd8505]

This video is excellent, watching your unique painting techniques and airbrush work is soooo satisfying. Keep it up!

[@johnfarscape]

I have commission painted dozens of Knights, for me the trick is definitely getting into a routine, I don't have to look at the instructions anymore so that saves time, I set myself a 1 sitting deadline for a Questoris or Dominus, my Cerastus and Acastus took a lot longer due to the amount of clean up and additional work needed with resin. . For Armigers I try to get 3 done per sitting. . I recently retired from comission work as it was spoiling my enjoyment of painting for myself. . I have over 100 imperial knights left paint in my collection so I have turned it into basically a production line. . I magnatize all the heads, shields and weapons so its easy to convert, swap out parts and add bits of extra details later.

[@agentbrownie2532]

killed it on this, This must required so much energy - the plates hanging from the shoulders are dope

[@JustDave87]

Love the video. Just got one of these for my AdMech army and super excited to start it. For the base, with such a large model, would you recommend pinning? Also, your airbrush effect for the metal parts that doesn't look so matlaic, how did you do that exactly? In the video you mentioned some colors and a silver highlight but it happend so fast. Haha Great videos btw. I've learned a lot from you.

[@AThousandSons1]

I love how by simply messing around in a challenge you may have accidentally painted one of your best looking models yet. I'm sure an hour or two of cleanup after sleep would almost make it competition worthy.

[@kodyfisher6719]

i love the idea of painting a knight brand new and shiny colors and the longer that knight is "alive/created" to rust it out and dull it down a bit

[@Fallenstartheone]

this gives me nostalgia feels , i was always afraid of green stuff and trying to do my own things plus i did it in my room and at one point my parents told me to "go paint outside jesus christ the whole flat smells like the ghetto!" 20years ago , nowadays im clean but still from time to time admire great paintjobs and creativity reliving it through the eyes of others. i admire your commitment to this craft , it is definately NOT for children (debatable) and quite pricey , but god damn if it isn´t one of the most entertaining accomplishing hobbies there is.

[@DerekBaswell]

Ordered Cobalt Keep bases for Knightly pile of shame that I swore to tackle with the upcoming codex, they arrived today and I am super Impressed. Thanks for featuring them!

[@CesarIsaacPerez]

Poor pilot model doesn't even get mentioned. Those banners on the shoulders look amazing, really gives the knight something extra.

[@Smilomaniac]

Unironically, the two best starter armies are Knights and Custodes, primarily from a build and paint perspective. A knight is two things: A metal body and panels that you can spray paint. Custodes need a gold spray and res on the tassels. Then it’s a matter of washes and a bit of trim, and you’re done - Guaranteed to look better than the paint caked metal minis that a lot of us started out with :)

[@fredogknopfler]

From experience: UV resin with oyumaru will most likely cause issues, as it releases heat while curing, which will likely soften it and lose shape or detail. I used it once for some buttons and it was a mess.

[@EricHonaker]

Maybe multiple thin layers to keep the heat down.

[@grimmriffer]

This lovely result has inspired me. I have an action-man sized necron, and some space marines on motorbikes to do. So I have a few speed paints on order and I'm gonna use your preshade and glaze technique, but I'll be stippling as I have no airbrush. It's cool how people are using these "contrast paints" in ways it doesn't seem GW thought of - it's also cool you can now get "contrast paints" for less than 7 quid a pot! 😉

[@darrickdelmoral]

The castellan actually also looks a little smaller if you put it next to the knight. Like visually, because there are more small surfaces. It looks way bigger in photos, but IRL, it looks not that big.

[@MGC-XIII]

You and Goobertown Hobbies would be such a joy to see collab xD

That’s an awfully slaaneshy color scheme for a “loyalist”

[@paulodiaz5774]

This is really awesome! Love the paint job and some extra parts on the shoulder pads. Would love to see a knight which looks like a real "Veteran" - a Freeblade like he had been battling for literally 10 thousand years like bullet marks, explosion marks, cuts, dents, bludgeon marks, scratched paints, etc... or even repaired or replaced parts and badges of honor. How epic it would look like. I really appreciate your content and more power to your channel.

As someone who just finished painting a Chaos Knight Desecrator over the course of about 4 or 5 days at 3 or 4 hours a night. I am very impressed with this video and the amount of skill you have as a hobbiest Knights are no joke and wonderful painting projects in their own right. I will disagree on one thing though, I quite like the Knight Castellan and Knight Valiants for the Imperial Knights line, but that is just my opinion. I think they look pretty slick.

[@nunyabusiness4904]

Fan theory, a couple of Ork Mekboys suffered head trauma and started to believe they were humans and so somehow they made it onto the design team for the Knight Castellan, they may have believed they were human enough to fool the other humans (or they didn’t want to argue with the seemingly friendly Orks) but they are still Orks so when discussing what weapons platforms they needed all they could think of was just add more shooty things because more shootas is always good.

[@CrudeConduct666]

I actually think the Castellan is the best knight. Everything you mentioned has rules for the Tabletop, like the two generators make exploding more likely and more devastating

[@Phil-pu9iy]

Sure but for me the silhoutte of the shoulders look terribly silly. As Jay said, it looks like a 10-year-old was given the task of making it more badass.

Nice, it’s just the details like the heraldry to go. With the two Questoris knights you’re only a single unit away from a fieldable army now. Just some armigers would get you there and they are still awesome fun to paint.

[@abysmal8764]

idk if this is a stupid idea, but I have some potential lore as to why it looks Slaaneshi, The ship carrying it (any loyalist chapter) was going thru the warp when the Gellar field has a little blip. The metal absorbs the color of the purplish pink warp section they were going thru, and comes out on the other side looking like this.

Hilarious that it is listed as 2 minis. Also major props that you are actually building it, so many "speed competitions" have an assembled, based and sometimes even primed army/mini. Building stuff takes at least 50% of the time for me at least. Mold likes are kill-on-sight for me. Would UV Resin have worked for the speed casting? Takes minutes to cure with a uv-torch
