Inquisitors the Forgotten Faction from Games Workshop

[@vectorshaman338]

Bought an airbrush kit today... next level of the painting journey starts soon.

[@theezekarion164]

Good luck brother remember Keep some .... Airbrush cleaner handy Keep ur tip clean Never let paint dry out in ur bowl Airbrush thinner 4 to 1 everything If paint is really thick like Abaddon Black thick 6 to 1 it

[@joeyjuiceboxdkk1]

If it seems difficult don't get discouraged! It's a whole learning process. Good luck and have fun!

[@Andres9632]

When it starts acting funky, and it will, check for dried paint in the brush even if it seems like it's in a place that shouldnt matter.

[@vectorshaman338]

@@theezekarion164 Thx man!

[@snarkymcsnarkface1863]

Get silly putty and hoppes 9. Silly putty is one of the best miniature masking options. Hoppes 9 is a harsh but wonderful cleaner and will keep your air brush running smooth. It keeps mine working at burning man or in the paint booth has for over 15 years.

[@tomukuruzu]

They should bring back Inquisitors like they were in 3rd ad 4th Edition with characterful Minis and the whole entourage. Also the old imperial priest/missionary minis from 2nd (?) Edition are still 10/10.

[@timunderbakke8756]

I only joined the game in 9th but I’d love a true inquisition force.

[@Willqer]

I feel, like rogue trader would work for such team even better, only some inquistors would also take xenos, and rogue traders could take even more xeno races and have more narrative freedom. Inquisitors work great as a core of very varied army though. Knightly devoted Sororitas, fanatical lunatic priests, flagellants, crusaders, holy paladin demon slaying Grey Knights, unique teams supersoldier commnado Deathwatch, specialised indoctrinated forces of Scions (or hardened veteran stormtrooper/grenadiers), supervised Imperial Guard regiments, a**hole marines of Minotaurs chapters. Maybe even Sisters of Silence or mechanicus force if inquisitor is friendly with the cult.

[@AzraelThanatos]

I used to use the Heroes of the Imperium list as an addition to Space Marines back with 3e...still use that book off and on because of the everything in the main rulebook part of it. Used a lot of the old Death Watch upgrade kit parts on them to make an affiliated group. Got the idea of an Inquisition force who managed a win against a chaos force, but the system was caught and trapped in a Warp storm for a couple thousand years, where they protected the Imperial world there for that period. Then the storm ended and they re-established contact as a strange, blended chapter of marines that descended from those stranded there for the duration of the storm

[@Reaching8]

@@Willqer This is true, and they should just release a game called ‘40k classic’ on the old system with their old sculpts. At GW they have a bunch of scrapped classic do-over sculpts like proper jet bikes that could be tossed into a boxed game or something. A combo of RT and/or early 2e rules would be perfect for it. That being said, if you remember how force organization used to work on the old system, basically every ed from 2nd-5th suited this force better. The % of army ally rules were amazing for Imperial soup lists that Inquisitors or other agents would be involved in, and the 2 troops and an HQ era made it possible to run an Inquisitor and his retinue as your army. Still though, the complete lack of RPG and good campaign mechanics, let alone events, in the last several editions make this force so soulless. I guess you can have Eisenhorn stand around next to your Cadians?

[@daiatnara971]

That's a fine paint job, and I loved the journey through his kitbash origins.

[@laukosthegoblin6168]

And here I am with my pretty much complete collection of Inquisition models. One day I'll be able to use you, one day.

[@andydogdad4349]

I will admit that's by modern standards the best rogue trader sculpt I've seen

[@Spoonergasm]

"Nobody expects the 40k Inquisition!" Joke's on you, Jay. I read the video's title

[@idkwhat___is]

Same

[@Ox_ygen]

That style of metallic is really cool, I gotta try it out for myself. Thanks for the inspiration Jay :D

[@anotherzingbo]

I bought that model back in the day! I still have it, and the Ordo Malleus Inquisitor in Terminator Armour that it came with... unpainted... never built. My backlog has had a lot of time to expand.

[@beardhammerwargaming]

I kinda miss the old days, as it was possible to see who sculpted the miniature just by the looks. But I prefer the rendered miniatures of today as the whole setting is more coherent and the personal "touch" of the sculpter is portrayed in other ways. Looking at you Bel'akor and the new Inquisitor stabbing the Chaos Book (Both are designed by the one and only Darren Latham).

[@DudeMinis]

You’re ability to create unique content with old GW pewter while there is a constant over saturation of new products in the market is why you are the goat!! Awesome job my dude!!

[@sonicwingnut]

I used to have the "Daemon hunter" one of these and it was one of my favourite minis. Currently figuring out how to kitbash an updated 2022 version of it - one thing is the primaris phobos librarian has the exact same head design, but better.

[@ShellbackCJ]

I like the camera shots you incorporated in this, well done!

[@gr8avocado]

I still have both of these old Inquisitors around somewhere. They came together in a blister pack and were new and cool when I started playing 40k. Yeah I'm old..

[@Nallenbot]

That's so weird. I was just googling the rogue trader inquisitor and by the time I got back to KZbin this video was up. I thought it was Google being creepy and this was an old video!

[@Tipsythomas]

It's his leg that gives it away, the era that is. Rouge trader loves bionics.

[@fransaacs]

Still holding out for an Inquisitor's Retinue kill team in KT21, I've collected, converted and built some counts-as models for Talons rules a but it's just not the same... Great work as always!

[@DigitalOrigami]

Yeah, an Inquisitor kill team would seem like a natural fit for KT. Can't understand why it's not there.

[@fransaacs]

@@DigitalOrigami I wonder if KT21 will go on to develop the detail and flexibility of Warcry's Warband creation? I live in hope.

[@f4est399]

This was my first army. Love the deamon hunter codex. After that I took a long break and came backin 2021. Everything changed since I've been gone

[@Azoth86730]

3E-4E was the golden age of the Inquisition, they had two entire armies, Daemonhunters and Witch Hunters, and Alien Hunters were promised many times, but never came to be.

[@Bigtunaproductions09]

NGL for a Rogue trader era model, that sculpt holds up really well

[@StumpedIDIT]

You’re correct Jay, I didn’t expect you to make a video about the 40k Inquisition.

[@bopaintsminis]

What a character. That classic kit-bash just SCREAMS personality. I wonder though, how would you use it on the tabletop in 9th edition? Regardless, great ebay rescue. Now put him next to your chaplain on jet bike.

[@daili4917]

That's a great find Jay, although when I saw the title I thought you were going to break out a 54 mm scale Inquisitor - I'd love to see what you'd make of big ol' metal Eisenhorn.

[@jimmiddletonnixa]

“Maybe the Tau?NO” Seems like games-workshops thought process to me

[@Anatanotame666]

you should use a teeth brush to get it 99% clean (put you teethbrush within acetone and brush it slightly that will clean te rest off. or you can also use an ultrason batch) :) surprised you put the base in it as well ! :)

[@I_am-lost.]

Honestly an entire faction of inquisition would be sick

[@BenColemanUK]

A legendary model and you did him proud, great job

[@yourdad7853]

I like how he immediately said "no" to the Tau. I needed that. Lmao

[@virtualfungus8711]

I've done this with scale 75 metalics since they work amazingly through airbrush and they have black-white metalics so basically did black metal and then zenithal of speed metal it looks really nice

[@LiliaArmoury]

eob: no one expects the warhammer inquisition anyone who read the banner before clicking: your expected

[@matthewmcg321]

I’ve got four of these kicking around if ya want them!

[@johnfarscape]

Nice job, looks great. . This and the other Ordo Malleus Terminator inquisitor are my favourite models from the Rogue trader era. . This one was painted white and purple in the early white dwarf I saw him in, 126 or around there. . The other one was purple and gold. . They really stood out from everything else at the time. .

[@jasonfeagans3456]

I have that model. Unpainted. So cool to see another one.

[@Basedweaboo]

I always wanted a small inquisition army consisting of sisters and grey knights led by an inquisitor and their retinue. Couldn't work in any game of 40k but I still 💬 nk it'd be cool

[@odinlindeberg4624]

I'm building an inquisition army of tempestus and sisters, in terms of how they play I'm envisioning that the sisters are going to be ground forces while the tempestus use grav chutes to drop in right next to any nice and big points sinks wielding meltas and/or plasma.

[@ratspike8017]

Wooo! I literally painted that Terminator Inquisitor (the body, anyway, with different weapons - I did use the funky power fist with the pointing, accusing finger!) about 3 month ago! I bought it brand new in blister way back in 1990 from a specialist game store that no longer exists. On reflection I probably should have painted it sooner...

[@bugnazbinnyking1198]

Another vintage Old'Hammer model given a make over and brought up to scratch for your collection. Nicely done. It makes me happy to see them get this kind of loving 👍

[@sebastianfeldtmann9674]

Jusr over a month ago I hat the old logan grimnar as a comission on my painting desk

[@shaggyrumplenutz1610]

I bought him back in college (in the 90s) just for the bionic leg for a Huron Blackheart conversion I made. I used him with the pointing hand and the other held a belt-fed minigun.

[@captaintitus5899]

i started at the beginning of 9th and it was the Ordo Mallus inquisitor in terminator armour that got me and hes been in every battle he could be in.

[@danwagner4306]

Awww, soo thick... Love it... best way to start my day.

[@gfresh513]

Amazing work! Thank you for this video.

[@DaThingOnTheDoorstep]

11:17 I see this Inquisitor slew a zombie from the 70's Dawn of the Dead movie. Fluorescent blood with a heavy orange tone.

[@scottlarmore5038]

As a guy that runs Greyfax in his Sororitas army…… not everyone has forgotten the inquisition.

[@paulhempenstall5463]

Classic model, I have the original metal one, from about 30 years ago. I recognised the sword arm as being Dark Angels, but couldn't immediately place it. Thought the storm bolter arm was as well, but interesting to see it was space wolves. Nice work on updating the paint job, I think the original looked good, standing the test of time if it was from the era. I think it would be interesting to do a like for like between my 30 year old paint jobs, and what I would do with the same model now.

[@Goowix]

I had a whole panic attack at first because you're putting a model in acetone but they're remembered he Is a metal model

[@joenewkirk6136]

Awesome Video. I love watching these Retro models get a fresh paintjob using modern techniques.

[@Whitewingdevil]

They didn't forget them immediately... they did make that Inquisitor side-game with larger scale models. If memorystalgia serves correctly the game was pretty fun.

[@temur72]

I still have 4 of the larger Inquisitor minis. The marine, the assassin, the flagellatent and inquisitor

[@markhanson9508]

Awesome mini and kit bash

[@bionicgeekgrrl]

I have this model I my queue to paint when I'm mobile enough to get to my work area again (I broke my ankle and leg in February and have not been able to access my modelling area since). This gives me some idea on painting it. I've had it since I started with 2nd edition as well so it has had a journey! I have the correct arms too.

[@TheGamerZapocalypse]

LA's TOTALLY AWESOME All Purpose Concentrated Cleaner And Degreaser Spot Remover works great for stripping minis also... As with any stripper be careful to keep the fumes away from you. Also, maybe a metallic white would work out better instead of just a pure white?

[@kmoecub]

That kitbash goes a bit further than you think. I have that mini, and the book isn't a part of the original release. Mine is Inquisitor Alice (after Alice Cooper), and mainly consists of a white primer covered in about 10 layers of green ink. Details were done with Citadel paints. I did essentially the opposite with the Ordo Mallius Inquisitor with a rendition representing pen and ink as if it were drawn by John Blanche.

[@JMACCSArmiesOfMiddleEarth]

Latex gloves and Industrial techno. Getting flashbacks to a Berlin gay bar.

The arm position is similar to the librarian in terminator. Seems wrong but hey it was custom like that. It is what it is. Lovely paints Jay

[@SouthernWargaming]

What mix ratio do you use on the Apple Barrel paint for it to spray?

[@turtlehead8386]

Idk how they function as an army tbh(they r legit detectives but have the right to blow up planets) I feel like they would be better in Kill Team or just there for some narrative battles.

[@skylarken1184]

In the newest rules for the Inquisition (that I know of) You got Inquisitors, acolytes, daemonhosts, Jokaero weaponsmith and that really specific Land Raider That's it. HQs, Elites and one rare heavy support. Acolytes are super versatile though so I dunno.

[@rechnin6680]

They would make an amazing faction in Kill Team, though would need some balancing, as you could build a retnue with operatives from other factions. To caledown the power grade, could be a rookie Inquisitor on his first mission.

Really nice find .

[@gregsmw]

if you want to do proper metalic highlights dont mix white with silver, that dulls down the "metalic" aspect of the metalics which can make the model actually look darker you want to get a pearlescent paint of some type, hobby paints dont seem to have these but they are common enough in acrylics, essentially a metalic white you can then use that as your highlight/mixing colour and you dont lose any "metalic" shine

[@jamgooandyou]

New to warhammer 40k, spent weeks looking at what army to pick, lore videos, game battle reps......ended up liking / ordering Grey Knights [only a small 1k army] but i didnt really like the GK HQ models, Crowe was nice looking but i didnt want to ebay bid constantly to pick one up......with lots of advice, help i picked up Tor Garadon [kitbashed into a Brother-Captain with Daemon Hammer and shoulder mounted Psilencer] Then cam Inquisitor Karamazov!
