I’m a simple man, I see DKOK content, I like it.

[@daringdarius5686]

I am a simple man, I see DKoK content, I find my people. ❤ Oh, and I also liked (goes without saying)

[@CMTechnica]

Instant dislike

[@BillyEichelberger]

Bro is not ready to sacrifice his life for the krieg

[@TabletopTime]

This is gorgeous, well done. Its hilarious that you went for the autocannons as well!

[@halo.animations1330]

Agreed

[@Bluecho4]

For those looking to replicate the discarded shell casings look, but don't have (or want to use) styrene rods (or don't want to cut them out), you could use tiny cylindrical beads. I've bought loads of them before, in very "28mm shell casing" size and shape, from my local dollar store's hobby section. Various other stores, like generalist hobby shops or even Walmart also carry similar beads. (I even have a variety in my bead collection that is the bronze-like in appearance, that I use in terrain projects, as I don't need to paint them).

[@Spectrefoxxiii]

I'm not normally one for vehicles, but its always fun to watch you sculpt. I do miss the painting segments from the past though- was great to see your process.

[@feralhawg867]

I’ve been very interested in seeing what the SA Leman Russ would look like without the brass trim painted like metal. Great video!

[@Bottle-OBill]

It looks great, has me pumped for the individual kit to be released. Now we just need rules that don't create the feelbadman moment when not taking sponsons on our Guard Russes on the table! Also curious how much conversion work would be needed to get the track guards to work this model.

[@iain.sm.c]

You add so much character and such a story to your builds. Well done Pete

[@Matt-md5yt]

glad you gotten the new Lemen Russ Tank my friend.

[@SombreroLAW]

Why did he stop including the painting in the videos ? I really enjoyed these parts

[@amabbett]

A top quality conversion with a great paint job.

[@DaedricFaZe]

This exactly what i want for my Vostryan Firstborn

[@fabiankorpelainen8710]

I'm sure I am not the first one to think about a massive sisters cathedral on treads and would really be interested to see what kind of kit bash you could come up with. Dont have much spare parts myself to kit bash all these cool looking projekts but have been enthusiasticly watching your content instead. Thanks for all the content.

[@michalsniadala1667]

honestly with the turret having 2 guns in such a narrow turret, there would be no room to avoid the breach from crushing you ever time the guns fire but it's krig so they would fkin love it lol.

[@HeWhomTheyCallHeph]

Absolutely stunning dude! All the little bits and pouches really sells that WW1/2 look DKOK have

[@mrp3ople]

You NEED to do more imperial guard kitbashes, they’re amazing!!

[@fenrirsrage4609]

Amazing work as always dude! Although the choice of placement for the Heavy Stubber is a bit weird but certainly unique. Love all the handy storrage bits, sandbags and other details you added that really made the model pop off! Hope to see more vehicles or tanks in the near future!

[@TuShan18]

Something I like is that the side riveted trim just looks like bolted on panels. When not painted gold, it just looks like a cooler leman russ in my opinion I can see guard players picking this tank up as command tanks or using it as their entire leman russ force and it would fit in nicely.

[@GenesisMaximus]

I subscribed to your channel when I started playing bolt action. (They’re mothballed now). This was a nice throwback to those times. I have like 200 leman Russ and chimera tanks primed. Scared to paint them. Would love more tank videos

[@TheOneTrueKyyng]

I'm glad czepeku is getting more recognition. They are so talented

[@jurriaandejongh8677]

Amaaaazing convertion, however, where in the thrones name is the painting segment,?! Look at that scheme! :O

[@OmegaLittleBob]

Awesome! I can't wait to see all the cool stuff the community comes up with my using the Solar Auxillia kits.

[@13dove]

Pete, you need to do more Death Korps of Krieg content on the channel! This is great!

[@stormycatmink]

Seeing a Krieg soldier sacrifice their legs to fit in the tank doesn't surprise me one bit.

[@jurriaandejongh8677]

Oh yes! This was what I was dreaming about as soon as I saw all those new tanks.

[@A_Random_Death_KorpOfKriegsman]

YEAH WOOOOOOOO!!!!!! As a representative of the death Korp of Krieg, I approve this message:)

[@Moonlighter_TV]

We need a Pete the Wargamer collab with an app/web designer that is a database of the weapons options each kit has. Like I need a heavy stubber for some chaos cultists and it would be so good to type "heavy stubber" in to a search bar and pull up all the kits that have one and see if I have any of those in my backlog or bits sprues.

[@HappyVoidWanderer]

Great conversion. One thing I would have on is the scoop that comes with the tank. I can see it being used by the Krieg for trench digging and for clearing a way for troops to march on.

[@ribofen]

Just like Night Shift, adding stowage really adds life to the tank

[@clawhammr666]

Excellent work as always, I'm rarely excited for humans in fantasy and places with so many other races, but Death Korp are always cool to see

[@KOTEC525]

superb detail work! Especially love the map!

[@craigcook5121]

Always the bomb, all the extra bits makes it look wicked.

[@isgibson]

Absolutely loved this conversion. You could definitely make a couple more tanks.

[@madmerlinsart]

This has been inspiring. I've already made a DKOK Leman Russ with a rather simple kit bash using the base Cadia pilot and attaching a spare Krieger torso. But it seems somewhat empty and bland. This video makes me want to go back to the half painted tank and add some extra details before finishing the paint job.

[@johnkelley9877]

A very interesting and well done model! Thanks for sharing this.

[@royfeness5423]

As I have tried sculpting with green stuff myself I can really appreciate how incredible your sculpting is on this model! Looks awesome!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thank you! The best advice I can give is to get some vaseline, a rubber tipped tool or two and just practice!

[@stephendupuis6062]

Hats off to the kitbashing.

[@ShinXyres]

Been watching since way back and I have to say I think that this is one of the best pieces you've done IMO. It just looks fantastic.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Wow, thanks!

[@SWATDRUMMUH]

i wasn't the only one! i knew that leman russ would make a good krieg tank!!!

[@Arukandi]

Thank you really much! I planned on doing a DKOK tank and this video really helped

[@paulschmidt9827]

One of my fav conversions I love it

[@ironxYT]

your work just consistency blows my mind.

[@am3lia420]

Love the sandbag technique!!

[@jakethepirate9776]

Has anyone mentioned that you sound like Tom Hiddleston? Enormously relaxing videos - thank you.

[@Xyxle410]

As an artist i don't enjoy the tutorials i enjoy your hard work

[@miniaturemiddleearth7376]

Would love to see this kind of approach to a non gw style tank from a historical range. Using the tank turn it into a uniquely flavoured guard regiment tank

[@silentsurvivor2197]

Loving this!!!! Might have to pick this kit up when I can!!!

[@benelliott2484]

Legit made my day motivated me to crack on with some of my projects tanks Pete

[@colinmitchell1000]

Am I the only one who expected to see a massive shovel on the front 😂

[@Fymosis]

Awesome video, the map is a genius idea !

[@R3VeLatioN]

It is my main goal to build a plastic DK army so you've just found another KZbin subscriber from myself. 👍

[@cholder9112]

If you get a chance drill ot the barrels of the maim guns, really makes a difference. Looks great though

[@richardmacpherson7647]

Even before watching the video Pete always gets a like because I know it's going to be good

[@thefinalanubis]

I've got a kitbash idea. A very simply idea, but an idea nonetheless. It'd be awesome to see an Astra Militarum helicopter. What I'm thinking is a Sentinel base but with the legs removed and a big ol rotor on top of the area where the guy sits. You'd have to use an armored Sentinel for it to work, but i think it'd be awesome. The lore behind it would just be an Astra Militarum regiment that needed something to help gather intel and perform reconnaissance on the enemy, but since they've been fighting for so long, they don't really have anything, so they just kinda say "screw the Mechanicus" and build a one man helicopter

[@15gloriousminutes]

I recently lost interest in imperial guard. i saw the heresy era leman russes and didnt like them so assumed i was done. But this? This i like. Customisation and a good paint job it fits right into 40k. Good work

[@PureOwnification]

That ad was hilarious haha “Lair” 😂

[@brucehemming9749]

Amazing build as always love the paint job great video thanks for sharing 🍻👍

[@paulofreire7520]

Incredibly awesome job, my man. 👍🏻

[@squibblez2517]

To me, its very cool that GW sent you a kit and you went "sugma ballz, kitbash."

[@poppinpatty]

@PeteTheWargamer Honestly one of the coolest series you could do is how to kitbash a krieg army. GW will not give us them even though there far better than cadians (imo) and a series where you show how to make krieg versions of the command squad, death riders, etc would be so cool.

[@mikepatterson6416]

Excellent conversion! 👍

[@WePaintMinis]

It looks great! And not a lot of work to do either. I love the paintjob as well!

[@Deadjim17]

This looks fantastic! I need to work out how to widen the tracks on it and where to make the cuts for an inset set of sponsons though

[@andrewbehrens3540]

Love to see more dkok custom vehicles series.

[@Pers0n97]

Yeah, the first thing I thought when I saw these new milicia vehicles was (oh boy, thos will look perfect in a DKoK army.

[@SpensPainting]

This is flipping mint mate!

[@Choppytehbear1337]

You can't show us you making a map and not showing the painted version.

[@MonkeyTechPriest]

With a new skaven range refresh on the horizon I hope your thinking about making a return to your 40k skaven army! Also excited for dead animal bits later this year.

[@SlayerMiniatures]

Freaking sweeeeeeeet Pete! Great job again!

[@Gunpowder_Gang]

amazing sculpting skills!

[@jamesboughton7841]

I love the paintjob. Any chance we can see a tutorial?

[@cavemansam8400]

Thanks a bunch! This shows the new LR to be everything I hoped it could be! Pls share the paint scheme!! Are they GW acrylics?

[@CapitanMee]

More kreigification please! Heavy weapon teams and/or sentinels would be much appreciated!

[@bretticus6722]

Pete's the Conversion King!

[@pv_hobbying]

I really like the kitbash, however I was hoping you'd have included the dome filter that goes on top of the engine hatch as that is the main glaring part I see missing on this alpha pattern - even though it is on the Dracosan - so I could copy

[@Wolfbroa]

I’m excited for more demon space wolf kitbashes

[@simonandersen7942]

Really cohesive look.

[@jesperrehmeiersrensen5774]

Great video Pete, as always. I plan to make my own - can you tell me which Guardsman from the Kill Team you used as commander? Thank you from a danish fan.

[@michealdjbeverstock2171]

I would like you to try and convert a krieg field ordnance battery

[@ayamenakiri9589]

Pete, did you make the mould for the sandbag yourself or did you buy it? If you made it, can you possibly do a short tutorial or explain it in a few sentences, and if you bought it, is it possible to tell me where from? Thank you so much. @Pete The Wargamer

[@Passdabear]

I love this! Such an amazing change to this tank and it adds so much making it Krieg themed! I wonder though, do the old Leman russ sponsons fit this new Leman russ? Or does it not work at all?

[@dfly27485]

Where do you get plastic kreig models?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

It's odd but they're often listed as Veteran Guardsmen rather than Krieg: elementgames.co.uk/card-games-board-games-and-more/seasonal/starting-kill-team/kill-team-veteran-guardsman?d=10694

[@zep5229]

A bit of a random thought about the Kill Team Salvation release but I really wanna see you update Sergeant Tellion using on those Scouts 🔥 🙏

[@haydencumiford2361]

Loved the Chaos Dragon. Could you possibly continue the Fantasy kitbashes?

[@illgetaroundtoiteventually]

Amazing as always Pete. Just a thought/suggestion for a look at a much underloved Imperial Guard Regiment: the Dieprian Mountain Men

[@silverhit1437]

Nobody: The mechanicus creating new units: so I made a straight cut just above the thigh here

[@ludkoto08]

Nice i like 40k tanks and artillery

[@ExiledPiasa]

Pete, how about 40K Death Corps version of the Renault FT, A7V, Saint-Chamond, and T-35 tanks? Or a 40K take on the Heinkel He 162, de Havilland Vampire, Saab 29 Tunnan, and Republic F-84F Thunderstreak fighters?

[@Creature8087]

Just a small question: are you planning on doing more chaos corrupted sisters of battle? After seeing the Khorne and Slaanesh corrupted sisters, I have been really looking forward to a time when you do the Nurgle and Tzeentch Sisters. Love the content as always!

[@cerisekappes580]

Looks amazing!!! 🤩

[@cavemansam8400]

3:51 Dammit Sir! That laspistol should be a sword for the memes!!

[@Lowlandlord]

Solar Auxilia already have all the same protections from things that the Kriegers do, they are meant to be able to fight in a vacuum, and modern tanks have seals to protect against external chemical, biological, and radioactive contaminants.

[@Vorvoros_]

And here we have yet another great conversion thoe while watching the video a certain ghastly idea come to my mind as unlikely as it is lore wise i would love to see you do the kitbash of nurgle corrupted regiment from Death Korps of Krieg ....

[@fullfrontal2860]

Can do a video on the Space Marine Impulsor or Repulsor? How to make them more interesting.

[@mikepalmer1971]

Well done good sir.

[@dfly27485]

Good looking tank buddy

[@Hobbyrepubliken]

Stowage is essential when one wants a tank to look used

[@vehicularMCS]

I would love for you to convert the Dracosan for this box into a Panzerjaeger Rogal Dorn! Maybe with printed parts?

[@MrAppl3byn]

Would love to see your take on a Bretonnian Duke on Hippogryph!

[@an0nycat]

*In life, war. In death, peace. In life, shame. In death, atonement.*

[@HAZZZZZZZZZAAAA]

this is fantastic, just wondering how you might add sponsons to these tanks given they don't come with them in the kit
