Old World Diaries: Dwarfen Mountain Holds! How to paint the Runesmith!

[@Mike-er5ws]

I really like the mix of lore and "how to" in you videos, it's what makes them unique 🙂

[@MediocreHobbies]

Cheers man, good to hear that

[@FuriousGeorge47-ji4bu]

Would love to see you tackle Bugman’s cart when it arrives

[@henriksorensen82]

Yes I really appreciate all The Old World content. Want more Orcs and Goblins, but I'll take what I can get. And to answer your question about whether you should talk about what color you paint or give some background to the model, I think you had a very good balance in this video for those new to your channel, but for those of us who have been following you for a while I can appreciate Lore a little more. Regardless, I appreciate your videos, I've learned a lot from them, both technically and Lore-wise. Also want to say that this dwarf looks absolutely amazing. As I'm getting close to finishing my current three armies I think Dwarves will be the next one I'll be jumping on unless GW surprises us with a whole new army.

[@Jason-man-in-black]

Nice scheme Andy, I especially like the cape and agree it’s a good idea to give the characters that extra pop of colour.

[@LostHavenGames]

LORE!!! Gimme the lore and some painting tips!

[@MediocreHobbies]

Haha good to know!

[@antonyspencer6222]

Very nicely done Andy, I like the step by step painting style that you do.

[@AdamMurray-e5t]

I think both the lore and the painting breakdowns are great. Personally I'm colorblind, and Citadel's paint names are a nightmare so I appreciate when you talk during the layering process and you mention what color it's bringing out and helping pop haha

[@dedmanwargames]

Looks amazing (as always!!) Loving the lore!!! ❤❤❤

[@aquaristpodcast]

My vote is step by step on the painting. Glad to see more Old World!

[@jmc7034]

Looks very nice❤️❤️❤️Look forward to Bugmans cart

[@scroggie_mini_painting3983]

I will need to pick up a few dwarf minis to paint up! Cheers Andy

[@a.craven3679]

Great balance of lore and tutorial!

[@BaronG101]

How to is great. I can get lore from some wiki. Oh and more DWARFS and other Old World Stuff. The painting of nostalgic models which I didn’t choose to do at the time is like a second chance for this old gizzard.

[@davidpaterson2979]

Always here for the Old World videos and especially the Dwarfs 😀 Model looks gorgeous (as always) and I really liked the rationale behind how you pick cloth colours

[@dwadland]

Fantastic. The purple cloak and gold worked so well together.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Yeah I’m really happy with it!

[@AuthorSurrogate]

I like hearing the lore behind the mini, I’d also like hearing any history of the model itself.

[@MediocreHobbies]

That’s a great idea!

[@mikespaintedminis5100]

I do enjoy hearing the lore and seeing the mini come to life at the same time

[@colinplatt1963]

Another great video Andy! You raise an interesting question though, and honestly, you are quite the lore master! I think I'm enjoying the background you are providing but if you can restrict it to the base coat process? Once you move onto the layering process, I want you to focus on the painting part!

[@mrtricorder]

Looks amazing as always. Can’t get enough of old world content

[@ronitabick961]

Love to hear the lore, I think it makes the videos more fun to listen to!

[@MediocreHobbies]

They're more fun to make too :D

[@rayshouse4933]

I agree with what several have said the mix is good. I think new people to your channel need the painting tutorials and that’s why they clicked, but those who have been watching now already paint minis in “your style” so no tutorial is needed for us but the lore is awesome. I find myself wanting to buy/ play/ paint based off of the lore of a model “why are they cool?” Which is awesome to hear. But how the model looks and how you got it to look like that will always have value imo.

[@rayshouse4933]

It is said to ask not the advice of KZbin for they will say both yes and no. lol.

[@joebomberger]

I like hearing the lore. Glad to see another old world video!

[@DanielWatson-kr6kr]

I enjoy the discussion of the lore, and I think more discussion of the painting or modelling is only really necessary when using a new or modified technique, as it's easy to intuit what's going on through the visuals. Thank you for doing so many Old World videos, and it is frustrating how GW have taken an inconsistent approach to supporting the game

[@froehmar]

Lore ist GREAT!

[@nickdavis5420]

These have been fun videos! Like the backgrounds even though I’m all in on one page rules did a 10,000 point battle at my local con .

[@stuartthomas7392]

Will you be doing any videos on painting the different Dwarven Holds, if so could you do a Barak Varr one please

[@AM-uw3gp]

Nice I still need to paint my Runesmith so will probably watch this back again for painting ideas

[@MediocreHobbies]

Sounds good man, like you liked it!

[@felix_thebear]

I like the lore part, maybe at minis that we have seen less than space marine we could get a little more painting guidance, but like spacemarines, dwarfs or other "generic" stuff, the lore part is great!

[@mjhsinclair]

I’d love a Bugman’s Cart video.

[@chrissabor4764]

Great video. More please

[@MediocreHobbies]

You got it!

[@konoa84]

I really love your videos! The ones about the Bretonnians really saved me! Can I ask you what static grass you use and where can I buy it?

[@jamesn2830]

Grimnir’s beard that’s a nice mini

[@MediocreHobbies]

Haha it is!

[@simonwiltshire3674]

I am trying to talk myself out of building up the pile of shame with a Dwarf army but tempted. Dig the Pokemon reference, pun intended.

[@powerwolf-vw8st]

Hungry santa hat top left, Bro is swapping the hammer and anvil for the hammer and sickle 😂 Your dwarf gold hoard you say? No OUR dwarven gold hoard! (accordion and vodka noises )

[@GilthosDrakoniss]

👍👍

[@kikolokopo_toys]

I want more dwarf videos. Not enough people painting dwarfs on youtube

[@MediocreHobbies]

Agreed!

[@isophistchambers6694]

I think rune-encrusted earmuffs should be canon.

[@johnmarshall4156]

Lore commentary and a vid on bugman plz

[@thesigmaritepainter7803]

Brilliant work! Sadly to see the video pop up 4weeks late.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Thanks man

[@Toshiba1976]

Stop tempting me with old world especially as I am at Warhammer world tomorrow

[@MediocreHobbies]

Hope you had a good time!

[@Toshiba1976]

@@MediocreHobbies I posted my ill gotten gains on your discord. It was awesome

[@katfezza4570]

No need to apologise for rain, you can't help the weather. Worst case make use of it and do an ASMR video with the rain in background and you reading a book or something, that'd be a pretty relaxing video.

[@Chr1s_90]

[@VibroBrian]

Mix of lore and painting, I have the bretonian army box set still to build and paint but still figuring my scheme. Do you have a discord at all?

[@MediocreHobbies]

We have a discord for our Twitch subs, KZbin channel members and Patreon supporters! There’s monthly challenges, painting comps etc over there!

[@bearnecessities9568]

Nobody tosses a Dwarf. But I will toss you a like!

[@MediocreHobbies]

Hahaha cheers man

[@SgtMaj22]

All hail the KZbin algorithm gods!

[@MediocreHobbies]

They are all powerful!

[@domc2383]

Any Dwarf content is a auto click for me. Do the whole range! Gw and highland

[@leegovus3461]

Keep up the lore/how to audio

[@jamesn2830]

Just offering my 2 cents here. I don’t like the lore reading I prefer just discussing the painting personally but do whatever makes you happy dude

[@Stonehorn]

Pitiful release schedule? They launched 4 huge armies within less than 8 months. The problem isn’t GW, it’s your ridiculous expectations

[@MediocreHobbies]

Hmm I wonder who set those expectations…😄

[@Stonehorn]

@@MediocreHobbies not GW. They didn’t tell you to expect everything immediately
