Can you paint a Warhammer Army in 12 hours? | Warhammer 40k Challenge

With 10th edition around the corner, we thought it would be a great idea to see if we could get a playable army in a day. We attempt to paint about 1750 points of Necrons for Warhammer 40,000 in 12 hours. We will try to get everything in the army to a battle ready standard and maybe with a few snazzy bits on top! The full list of the force can found below along with the paints we used

Much more entertaining than all the other creators posting their 10th ed starter box marathons, if only because you two muppets are hugely entertaining

[@the_kieran_show]

Bless you mate! The Leviathan drop has certainly been saturated, being transparent we'll absolutely have our time in the 10th edition sun aswell, just not currently. For the time being these muppets are painting robots! 😂

[@Nixolotl]

@@the_kieran_show Im mostly into AoS but appreciate some 40k stuff, the new-crons are really fun though so this is a good watch. Keep it up!

[@hairydadder1168]

@Nixolotl Same here! I like the look of the Necrons last few years and I've got a few but they're so f!*%@ fiddly and skinny I can't bear to build them....

[@TLP0RT]

To answer Kieran's ponder; the reason why gold paints generally don't look quite right is that there's no actual gold in the gold paints. Gold is expensive to work with, so they are usually made with tinted aluminium or a different hue of metal like copper. Excellent painting, Kierans!

[@the_kieran_show]

Oooooh everyday is a learning day!

[@seanhoggett4841]

Cheeseburger and Texas BBQ pizzas are a sigma chad uber god-lord level cuisine! Great taste in movies, too! Minis are looking larrrrrvely! Can’t wait to see your take on the Leviathan set 🔥🔥🔥

[@the_kieran_show]

You're a man of culture I see! 🏆

[@MAXGAM3R]

Watching this after the combat patrol challenges have been done and hearing how optomistic you both are for them is peak comedy

[@the_kieran_show]

😂😂 we were so brave yet so wrong.

Haha thanks!!!

[@AaronVgoat]

What I found for gold is to use a silver dahler Rowney ink and mix in some sepia or leather contrast.

[@the_kieran_show]

Nice suggestion!

[@fortyk.w]

Now this is podracing.

[@the_kieran_show]

ITS WORKING. ITS WORKING

[@Nixolotl]

Surely this is pod-casting! Its like podracing but with slightly less sabotage

[@the_kieran_show]

You should see behind the scenes!

[@joshuaharrison4853]

I'm watching your videos from the beginning, and from what I've seen, you guys should have waaaaay more subscribers.

[@the_kieran_show]

That is very very kind of you mate. Word of mouth is alot stronger than the algorithm so be sure to keep the TKS train going for us! Welcome aboard 🫡

[@justinbanuelos5331]

You both are fantastic. I really enjoy your videos. You definitely deserve more views/subscribers.

[@the_kieran_show]

Thanks so much for the kind words, we will keep on chugging away and hopefully get there :)

[@Iris_Astraea]

[@the_kieran_show]

Thats alot of robots! You really should, theyre such a fun army. Make sure you join our Discord and show us :)

[@alescervinka7501]

I think creating a youtube channel to slay the grey is a nor a bad idea.

[@the_kieran_show]

Absolutely!

[@zackerymorris8268]

Great job guys love the novokh scheme

[@foreverfornever1124]

Ok so figuring out how yall collected this army. I assume yall started with the start collecting box, getting hyped for 9th edition, and then got the big indomitus box. Or yall got the big box and then excitingly got the start collecting box before the new combat patrol dropped, and then go the CP. I saw the two commemorative models which Im jealous of as I never got them, and at some point decided to go in on 6 more skorpekh destroyers since they were dumb cheap during 9th edition haha

[@the_kieran_show]

Nearly! It started with the Indomitus box, then the combat patrol box and then a few issues of the imperium magazine!

[@foreverfornever1124]

@@the_kieran_showooh ok ok I can see that now. Im in the States so I never think about those. i know I would have been all over Imperium Magazine in 9th if I lived across the pond. I also want to point out, the amount of points yall painted in 12 hours probably took me a year to do. So congrats on that haha.I have gotten a lot faster now, going on my 3rd in the hobby with over 6k points so I gues longevity and endurance was in my corner haha

[@the_guitarcade]

I'm Texan. It's almost impossible to find actually Texan barbecue outside of Texas, even in our neighboring states. The idea of "Texas Barbecue pizza" in the UK concerns me. What exactly is on it?

[@the_kieran_show]

BBQ base, chicken, bacon, peppers, onions, corn! 🍕

[@the_guitarcade]

@@the_kieran_show They could at least use brisket if they are going to call it Texan.
