If those racks were 6 wide for droppers, instead of 5, they'd be perfect for Army Painter Fanatic.

To make your razor chopper a little more solid, why not drill a small hole and put a screw in the center of the razor where the slot already is? That should go a long way to making your slicer more stable

[@MeAndSomeRandoms]

Fun fact: The Gladiator is actually capable of shooting anything he sees on a 44x60" board, the farthest distance would be the diagonal on opposite corners, for example bottom left to top right, that distance is 74.4" but because the tank itself has a size bigger than 2.4" the 72" range will always be sufficient.

Seeing someone this enthusiastic about warhammer cures my hobby burnout, and I don’t think I’m the only one.

[@snowy5628]

It's exactly the reason why I find Jay to be the best warhammer youtuber by far!

[@severintw]

I can also recommend The Kieran Show. The two Kierans are very positive, funny and a true pleasure to listen to.

[@trainman164]

I know! He has helped me get comfortable with my own painting skill, and as helped me get back into 40k with his enthusiasm.

Since we re in orktober, you spoke years ago about a ork kill rig/mad max doof wagon kitbash 👀 Please make it happen

[@minxlove01]

Yeah, I want to see that!!!

[@HarryKyle-s2k]

@@minxlove01I’ve wanted to see this for years!!

[@optimusWII]

I really like how the red of the armor pops next to the black and cream of the rest of the tank. It also makes it easier to tell apart the battle tank from the transport impulsor (even if that one isn't painted yet)

[@CaptainPoseidon282]

I will offically have my first ever game of 40k next tuesday. My Thousand Sons vs Emperor's Children

[@KiwiBirdThing]

Good luck man!

[@CaptainPoseidon282]

​@@KiwiBirdThingThanks😊

[@ashergutierrez9235]

Howd it go?

[@CaptainPoseidon282]

​@@ashergutierrez9235Bcause of stuff I don't want to get into that game was this tuesday. It went... poorly on my end. I overextended turn one into charging range of the daemon prince and legionares which was an awfull mistake. My rhino died to shooting on turn one so I really couldn't do much with that either. With so many stuff dying and the mission being purge the foe I lost with a 13 point gap. But I'm happy that I got to play and learned how to use my army as it is meant to be used rather than run and shoot like a moron

[@michaelrajeff9438]

The extra armor looks like explosive reactive armor

[@troyarthur376]

Totally thought the same thing! It’s an awesome detail to make the vehicle read more “tank” like.

[@DrakonPhD]

ERA works perfectly for space marines too, since its a lot lighter and more mobile/versatile compared to regular armor which fits their whole mobility focus

[@milojinvente7746]

@@DrakonPhD The problem is that when the ERA explodes (as ERA does), the space marine is gonna get a lot of damage +shrapnel is gonna fly everywhere into the space marine and his brothers, both things that are oviously bad. Thats the reason why light vehicules (mostly) don't use ERA, since the armour of those vehicules is not strong enough to resist the explosion.

[@a.k3arns561]

I thought it looked like key areas to shoot like in video games hahahah

[@JollyJohn117]

Jay! That white strip accross the front was begging for some iconography and battle damage! Now go paint your Land Raider!

[@michaelgarrant2431]

As bad as they may be on the tabletop right now, I think you should add a stormraven gunship. Nothing is funnier to me than being able to airdrop a dreadnought behind enemy lines

[@scoutjax3202]

I teleport 11 dreadnoughts behind the lines in every game. That's tactical dreadnoughts though

[@vonplackus527]

classic predator to see how it fares with the Primaris one. It d be interesting to see them side by side

[@nathanaelbuchanan2680]

Jay, I always love watching you work, and your excitement for the game. I'm in absolute awe today of those armor plates, and the dedication down to the rivets. I've got bad tremors, so precision details like that are just so cool to be able to see someone do.

[@Lightpeti]

can't wait for the rep. executioner... I've been putting it off as well, maybe that'll be just the thing I need to assemble and paint

[@Ruggedtoaster]

I think the land raider hit the right vibe for 40K with the retro Great War shape and sponson guns. It keeps the big flat surfaces from feeling empty but gives lots of room for customization. But the rhino just felt like a lunch box to me, except maybe the sisters rhino with all its extra flair

[@brandondilts3758]

I don't know why people roast your templar color scheme when they are easily the best looking black templar army that I've seen on youtube lol

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

I can't stress enough how much I love your sponsor. That's not something I can usually ever say about sponsors. But Cobalt Keep surprises me yet again, and thankfully I waited on buying paint racks because I frickin need these. And of course your skill, talent, and results are mindblowing, as per usual.

[@modelmanjohn]

For rivets you can buy resin ones used for 1/35 scale armor. You can get like dozens for under $20. work pretty well.

[@LukePaganoRotaryWall42087]

[@loganthrasher4702]

I was thinking to use some extra armor for my dragon templar's vehicles that look like stone work to fit the knight aesthetic.

[@lordamnesia]

Definitely do the Land Raider next! Also, I just found out this cool trick. For mold lines on things like those barrels on the back of your Gladiator, just apply some liquid cement (like the Tamiya stuff) and it melts the mold lines away. Tried it, and it actually works!

[@RobertTaylor-sd3zy]

Nice I just did a black templar Impulsor added blue lights on the underside for the hovering effect. Put the battery pack in the middle of the cab and the switch is under one of the side guns.

[@qu1ll380]

8:00 the enginseer: "Am I a joke to you?"

[@mombo240]

Was so worried you were going to forget to paint the purity seals but was so reviled when i saw them painted at the end !

[@sinisterplank3113]

As a bit of a tangent, ive started using wooden blocks and 3m tape for my holders, and i absolutely love it.

[@w1zz0k12]

When the KZbin notification notifies you the same day of the upload and not 3 weeks after😳

[@jakeherrod7494]

Thank you so much for this video!!! I love and I mean LOVE your infantry recipe and have had a hard time matching the color to vehicles. Thank you so much for showing how to do it!

[@willjamda]

Maybe for the blue black/gray you can use Vallejo intermediate blue, I have used it over black and like it

[@AttiraKell]

I have to say, the extra armor plates look really good! Great representation of bolt on reactive armor!

[@skorpekh]

Your positivity and talent is truly inspiring! Please keep doing this forever mate, we appreciate your content.

[@tacotots_132]

For someone who doesn’t enjoy painting veichles, you do a great job! Love this dude!!

[@cpunching]

Loving your videos. A cool thing I wanted to point out is that black isn't really the absence of colour but a combination of all of them when mixing paint! Black being the absence of colour is really when we're talking about light. I forget the artist's name but there's a famous painting where it's all squares of "black" paint, but the more you look at it the more confused you become - which one is "true" black when all of them have such huge variations of hues to them? Some feel green, some feel blue-ish, some just don't feel "right" but they're all black paints. So even if you play Black Templars and think that black is the absence of colour it really isn't, you have so many choices and interesting things to play with! edit - also to add I wonder if you can use the diamond art wax pens to place the nail beads and other small parts. Would have to use a bit stronger glue or lay down a bit of something sticky to make it come off the wax easier but that could be cool to see more people incorporating diamond drills since some of them are insanely pretty/shiny.

[@Sebastion464]

That plastic putty impact crater trick is fantastic! I definitely need to try this in the future.

[@metalbloodnoisefire]

oh damn. i have been pretty meh on the space marine vehicles as well but this tank looks dope! a tiny addition i would maybe make is painting in the little circular lights on the front and maybe add some OSl? Might make it pop a bit

[@philmitchell8109]

For the additional items added to any tank have a look at pictures from WW2 and you find some amazing stuff that was just thrown on them. For a different camouflage search the British army in Berlin for an urban camouflage which I've never seen any Warhamer player use.

[@elijahdprophet]

This came out really fantastic. Inspiring work, I have a gladiator thats been sitting on the shelf primed for almost a year now...

[@geoffreyhebel2438]

Lancer is my gladiator variant of choice as well. Having a main gun that is almost guaranteed to hit every time you shoot with it is pretty amazing

[@markhanson9508]

Looks awesome, i do wonder why you didn't paint any of the lights or lenses though. Surely that's a fun opportunity to splash in some more colours

[@patrussell1792]

Nice video and love to see you enjoying pulling your tank together. Just wondering why the lights, engines and viewing lenses and viewports aren't painted. I think that would help you feel even more enthusiastic about this tank on the battlefield. Thanks for the vids. Your enthusiasm is wonderful.

[@get2burning]

Your first lr video is what brought me to your channel! I'd love to see another one

[@jordybordy007]

That looks incredible! You always make it look effortless. Great job.

[@TheSuperboy91]

I literally primed my first prismaris impulser last night from the combat patrol and was going to paint it today! This video could not have been posted at a better time!

[@PraetorGix]

These not-rhinos and not-predators are really horrible but you managed to make this one look very cool, and most astonishing of all is that it actually reads as black XD Kudos to you good sir.

[@argowen]

I've had to go to my FLGS to pick up a Gladiator for THIS very reason and I now blame you Jay. Absolutely awesome execution BTW. As for your next one, I'm saying the Invictus Battle BUTTTTTT you have to give it 2 hands so it can wield a beefy sword and a gun. Lets say a Black Templars take on the AMP Suit from Avatar / APU from Matrix.

[@TheMousquetaire]

I wish I could find that guy standing up in the turret somewhere! I've looked on ebay, etsy, everywhere but I can't find him at all! uuuurgh!

[@Rimm76294]

Saw an upgrade for the Land Raider in Etsy for the Icarus pattern in a Black Templars theme. Its a spendy upgrade, but it looks sick, and it makes for a seriously girthy boi. Would make a great (and time-consuming) project!

[@scoutjax3202]

The executioner has so much shooting. If I recall correctly you can only fast role 2 weapons on it. The rest have to be separate due to different rules.

[@Johndoe-co3pw]

The way you paint your black templars is perfect anyone who uses straight black on a model will quickly find there is almost no way to make a convincing gradation or blend from that.

[@Nyx_Sappho]

I got 2 gladiators last week for my black templars and your timing couldnt bbe more perfect lol

[@theinnerham]

I feel like over the past year Jay's painting has really leveled up.

[@rcnavratil]

Love the mods you did. Paint job is great as usual, but you gotta hit those lenses and lights, man!

[@nunyabusiness4904]

Since Jay asked so nicely I have to say I'd like to see the Land Raider get built and painted next.

[@SetaDragon]

Landraider. Also it feels so strange you not doing some kind of osl or lens flare on the lights and optics of the tank. Looks great either way!

[@bingorobins1010]

That looks badass man, we'll done.

[@RogalDorn01]

Love it! Let's see that Land Raider

[@marcwittkowski5146]

Land Raiders and Rhino based vehicles are the best tanks available to Astartes. So the answer is obviously that you should work on the LRC next. Also: paint the lights of this one ;)

[@kevinknox378]

Definitely a land raider next. About to do my own one, so I would love some inspiration!

[@BrushQuill]

This is a cool upgrade and paint job. My issue with the impulsor is that its basically a pick up truck. I don't want my BTs in a Hilux or Ranger!

[@mickdundee2642]

It's cool to see this! I, myself have a Gladiator Lancer and a Repulsor but I don't know how to paint them so that they can look good. I cannot afford an airbrush and I'm playing Ultramrine, is there a way I can use to not have flat tanks?

[@lizadon0740]

Im not a fan of the replulsors but i do like the gladiator, i think its the side sponsons and engines. Makes the side less boring.

Please paint a Landraider Redeemer. The most Black Templerish of all the vehicles. It would be a great birthday present for me with. With only four months delay.

[@johnlander2219]

You need to build and paint the retro land raider you got at Adepticon. 😁👍

[@Hakan-mz6pd]

if you did the white first with a airbrush, then mask it and dothe rest of the tank, it would be smoother and quicker

[@angrybeesound772]

ironic thing is the unarmored gladiator has a 3up save with no invuln where the impostor can get a invul, so it can handle higher strength weapons better than the 'tankier' tank.
