[@emixam6947]

16:30 Sorry that Oblits and Night Lords are both sub par in the new dex, at least chaos marines are good now huh?

[@JynxBlack13]

I got in on these! Can't wait to bring my Tzeentch loyal Chaos Marines some much needed reinforcement!

[@slimygrimy-l7m]

I would like to do this but I need to know what kits to buy? Iv never gotten into tho GW models I read the books and do WW2 models... I want to do this for display purposes but don't know where to start?

[@matthewjongema1405]

Would love to see you do this series for the Iductii

[@StevilKanevil_]

The marble effect is class, and also love the Salamander lava base you got without having to use raised cork platforms.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Cork is my pet peeve lol. I have never seen a material - concrete, rock, soil, whatever, that looks like cork at scale

[@admiralron]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop thank you! Everyone at my LGS side-eyes me when I politely balk at their suggestion that I use cork on my bases.

[@jossefyoucef4977]

The marble effect got me to appreciate and respect this hobby even more

[@Delonto]

I feel it has to be the right cork to work, there are a few that are close to the texture of a dry cement.

[@davidsiepel6774]

the trick is the fill the gaps of the cork with something, like puddy or paste, SOMETHING to fill it in. Then it can look like concrete, but if you just slap it on there, ya it doesnt work

[@MrBiggybit]

I saw that $300 box of Horus Heresy and was like "NOPE" but now..... now I think I need it. The first one and this second video are some of the best mini painting videos I have ever seen, it is quick, to the point, tons of tips and tricks, tons of tried and true methods, just amazing.

[@eastoforion]

saw it for $260 :) also way cheaper than buying any of it piecemeal

[@lt.branwulfram4794]

£180 in its native country where I am

[@margathapai4010]

I'm not sold on the box at all; it's the paint schemes and basing that I could use on models I already have that got me. If you really want to play horus Heresy you could pick up older models, kitbash, paint and proxy them up (like what Eric did using the flamethrower with the salamander)

[@MrCopenhagen113]

The Age of Darkness box is such good value. Even for a 40k player. Im building most of my 40k alpha legion army out of it.. aswell as using them for HH. It's literally like. 2k points 40k army for 250-300 USD

[@_oidaki_]

GW channel endorsement secured right here :D

[@MatthewManning-h2w]

Hey Eric, my daughter was very concerned that you put paint on your toothbrush. She wanted me to remind you not to brush your teeth with it anymore. 😂

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thank her for the tip! You can assure her that i won’t use that toothbrush anymore 😊

[@Grymbaldknight]

The art to giving miniatures that "personal touch" is in the subtle conversions and poses. You've absolutely mastered these, especially in the head choices. Bravo!

[@Lord_Brownie]

My favorite theory about the missing primarchs is that their genetic code was unstable and they degenerated into wretched mutants. This would explain the secrecy, as the emperor’s own creations could never possibly fail the badly.

[@margathapai4010]

I just like the idea that they took one look and said "no". That the Emperor rolled up with his archaic technology, muttering techpriests and floating robo skulls, while the two of them had landed on a pretty chill world, with like decent technology or maybe a small star trek like federation where they made peace with a few alien races instead of war. Big e probably threw a hissy-fit and burned the place to the ground and then cut thier pictures out of his yearbook while crying because they wouldn't join his murder club

[@chadway8904]

There's a ton of really cool theories out there, like one of them landed on a Xenos planet and became the leader of a race of Xenos, or that they used Dark of Age of Technology SCT designs and starting making Men of Iron again, or that one of them was actually "good" and would have actually competed with the Emperor with his alternative vision of humanity, or that the 2 lost Primarchs were the 2 who were designed for combat in the Warp and in Space, "admiral" primarchs so to speak, because that roll is conspicously missing. It would make sense if they fell to Chaos. Perhaps one of them was captured by a greater demon or chaos god and the other Primarchs had to go in to the warp and kill their battle brother to keep him from turning to Chaos. Another cool theory is that the Primarch was starting to become a powerful psyker, and came to understand the warp earlier than all the other Primarchs. Or perhaps one of the Primarchs could even have been offered a deal by the Chaos gods to become even greater than the Emperor if he would betray his father. There are so many cool theories out! Geneseed corruption is pretty standard and happens already. The fact that 2 Primarchs are redacted and forgotten means his creations failed no matter what. Of all these theories, geneseed corruption would seem to pose the lowest threat. Would that even be worth hiding and going through the trouble to alter Primarch memories? If anything it might serve a cautionary tale to safeguard their geneseeds, and the Emperor wouldn't have to accept full fault. You like what you like, but you should go look at some other theory videos if this topic interests you, because there's a ton of fan theories about what could have happened to the lost Primarchs and they're all super cool

[@newtybot]

Emperor: *walks into the clone lab and sees what looks to be two fist sized ball of chewing gum floating around in Baja Blast*

[@Ray-yv7kn]

@@margathapai4010 I'll admit I'm not very knowledgeable in 40K lore, Emperor lore included. But from what I know a "hissy fit" seems out of character for the Emperor. Especially considering his age and experience. He's definitely capable of major fuckups like with teleporting Angron and burning Monarchia, but a hissy fit seems too dumb. Unless this is TTS Emperor lol.

[@synergy8879]

my theory is that the 2nd was extremely good with genetic alteration and the 11th was extremely good at creating machines, as primarchs were a piece of their father, these 2 aspects were the only that didn’t show up. 2nd altered his own dna and geneseed in order to improve his astartes yet failed and made some pretty horrible abominations, yet loved his mutated sons so much he was willing to abandon the emperor for them. the 11th landed on a very tech advanced world that was destroyed in the age of strife, found some ai, used said ai, made his legion extremely technologically adept, emperor found out that the 11th was either using ai, daot shit or his entire legion had been transformed into robots with ai along with the 11th primarch, who was probably fucking megazord at this point. which was why even the dark angels had trouble with them and why purging the 2 was so difficult. genetic monsters in another level and literal space marine necrons are hard to destroy and purge.

[@jemman2906]

Plot twist, the world eaters never repainted their armor, they just never cleaned it, hit em with a pressure washer and you'll see that lovely white ceramite.

[@finnon7460]

Such a perfect mix of cinematography, storytelling, tutorial, and charm. You're a legend, thanks for doing what you do! I really enjoy watching what you've been making :)

[@YouCaughtCzars]

I always loved the aesthetics of the Alpha Legion and the World Eaters, and your takes on them are just sublime, as were all of the other 16 Legions you represented. I love the glowing effect on the plasma pistol on the Ultramarine!

[@DaThingOnTheDoorstep]

14:06 Traitor's Red looking _really_ good there, Eric!

[@CryoPanda]

I'm a Salamanders army builder myself and I really appreciated the tips regarding the lava-themed base. Great video!

[@n7revan829]

A full team like that Death Guard would look mint.

[@Hoping_for_Christ_to_return]

Mint is a good color, personally, I would choose a poison green. Specifically the color code #49b960

[@magnusmillerwilson]

Eric, this video is so genius Ive watched it multiple times as inspiration. It’s an accessible level of kitbashing and I love that you even made the bases simple but unique.

[@GS_37]

Painting is great, but my favorite part was learning about "ultramarinus," that's clever. Thanks Eric!

[@inkognito343]

I'd recommend to try out shattered legions army: that way you can assemble marines as members of several legions instead of one, and still use them as a single army

[@doctorwatermelon99]

or the gimmick is that they're all alpha legion but showed up in outfits of all the legions for tactical confusion

[@Lokan30]

Absolutely awesome! The salamander base is amazing and the ultramarine marble!

[@elicrosby1551]

I just want to say, your showing of mistakes and errors has brought a serious relief to me. I love painting and have fun planning my paint schemes. Its just nice to see a KZbinr "Show cracks" so to speak. Make's high end painting feel obtainable.

[@aaronbrown4275]

Some really great techniques in these two vids that do a really great job of looking different than most common techniques, but also still keep to the "original" look of the Legions. Very cool!

[@1xoACEox1]

That Marble effect with the cloth! I was like there's no way that's gonna look good-WAIT.

[@xaldorsnotgrimdark5972]

I just wanted to tell you that you are by far my Favourite Hoobyist on KZbin and inspiried me to build a diorama of my white scars successors with your last video

[@FamineStudios]

I don’t really build or play any miniatures anymore, but I use some of these tips in painting my 1:18 action figures and customs I have on my channel. I appreciate the skills you share here on the channel. Love the blood spattered armor.

[@themidwesternboi9399]

Am I the only one who noticed how we didn’t prime the ultramarine

[@asge17]

Oh the death guard helmet was brilliant looked like a rotting bone I loved that, gonna steal that for skelletons

[@a-sheep-of-christ]

That Paintjob on the deathguard in 8:18 is telling a story all by itself. The yellow dust on the coalblack burnt surface finishes the look nicely.

[@mrblack5145]

I came here from part 1 and I'm blown away by your skill and expertise. Really. I'm in full JFK mode, mind blown. As someone who has NEVER had any interest in the tabletop game whatsoever, but loves the lore books and other media, I'll admit that your videos are making me itch to pick up a small (entry level?) set and get to work painting my very own models. I enjoyed painting and assembling model cars when I was younger but the challenge and detail you're able to bring to each piece is utterly astounding. Bravo, good sir, bravo!

[@Sevarrius]

Looked through the comments to see if anyone else had mentioned it but couldn't find a mention of it: Both the World Eaters and Ultramarines are marked as the XII '12th' legion on their title card on the video and in the video chapters. Not really an issue but i know if it was my video it would bug me enough to fix it! Anyway awesome work, loved both videos.

[@bl3993]

These all look crazy good, and the appearance of Malebolgia in the warp was a fun touch.

[@omnissiahGaspar]

Fun fact: the World Eaters never actually painted their armour red, they've just spilled so much blood that there's no white paint visible underneath

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thats a dumb bit of lore imo lol

[@kalesmythe]

there is so much information in this video and it is presented so succinctly. great job, man.

[@koendinie]

That marble effect alone is amazing. Was looking for a good way to do this for years. Will 100% do it like you did it. Amazing job

[@Nemisis680]

This was a solid video. Perfect mix of lore, exploring different factions and all tied together with cool painting tutorials. As someone who is new to 40k this is great.

[@pierre-louispicot4598]

I had never considered doing Angron's boyz before, as I also didn't like the "blood on red" factor, but boooooy this paint job is making me doubt the emperor of mankind and reconsider my choice of going imperial fists... !

[@asteroidrules]

Could always go loyalist World Eaters like I did, their final stand at Isstvan III was the stuff of legend. Blood for The Emperor, Skulls for the Legion!

[@Raditz102]

@@asteroidrules no way that’s what I want to do! I also want to do loyalist death guard and emperors children

[@Jon-yn4pq]

14:11 I would have never thought to combine the glossy finish with flat black Paulding. Looks very cool!

[@UnkleKlumsy1353]

Thank you so so much for going with the lighter minty-ish seafoam green for the Sons of Horus. It is a much nicer look for their uniform

[@veronica5896]

I think I want them all! Amazingly well done! Thanks for sharing!

[@zamp6969]

I love how you gave background on the characters then a paint tutorial. Made this and Pt. 1 extremely enjoyable to watch. Awesome video! ❤

[@halseypayne4249]

this video got me into the hobby. This is the perfect showcase of how creative this hobby can be. I've been interested in playing Warhammer for years now, but had no interest in the painting side of the hobby because I assumed it was just about coloring inside the lines. Watching this I now know this is a legitimate way to express yourself and let your creativity flourish. Thanks Eric for being the catalyst for me to make the leap!

[@margathapai4010]

This was an extremely impressive project; not only did you show a bunch of diffrent ways of painting, but the bases were varied and phenomenal.

[@JustinKase1969]

The marble effect still amazes me - so much easier than other methods I've used and looks amazing :)

[@Xgamerdad]

While nice job on all, my favorites from this video series: 1) World Eaters 2) Night Lords 3) Salamanders

[@walroz87]

Just wanted to say I thoroughly enjoy these types of videos! I dont paint play or collect I simply enjoy watching you guys do it all and it amazes me!

[@bulkbu6331]

Perfect mix of narration, context and painting scenes. Very well put together! Good stuff.

[@jaystarrs08]

Wow man, what a great couple of videos. Your editing of images, video and voice over about all these legions was so good! Loved it!

[@hudu]

That plasma glow on the Ultramarine looks fantastic! I thought there was an LED in there for a second!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Vallejo fluorescent paints are great for that!

[@aeligzande]

Amazing videos! I really enjoyed seeing the painting ideas paired with a bit of lore. Great work!

[@Jdama11]

Really really cool man. I love how you incorporated the home worlds of each faction into the base terrain. The white Scars model is my favourite. I imagine myself walking the plains with my white scar brothers, watching the tall grass dance into the wind. Before engaging the enemey in combat to defend my beloved homeworld. The stepped on grass effect looked fantastic.

[@YellowHornet42]

I've been working on some salamanders and the way you did the bases were awesome! I'm definitly going to try that method!

[@knightsolitaire3610]

Just Finished the book Betrayer when I finally found this video and have to say that World Eater is exactly how I pictured them in battle! So sick! That blood effect makes the NAILS BITE!

[@joshmorales770]

Loved the results of the simple sand & paint that got you that marbled look on the base. Definitely keeping that one in mind going forward

[@bhseigel]

this is probably going to get me to start 30k. i've never played the games, but i have loved the books for years. Having the new Horus Heresy sub-game 30k is such a draw for me... and these videos were exactly what i needed for a fleshed out idea of the legions appearance on the table. ty so much. new WH tabletop fan and new sub

[@hyperbene7711]

Another outstanding video, hot on the heels of the last one! Arena. Ultramarine. Your knowledge of everything is uncanny - and of course, your painting rocks.

I've been using some 2nd edition bolter stocks to give my poor Death Korps kill team a way to brace their bolters, plasma and melta, so I was happy to see the old flamer put to use in this video. They're all great schemes, but I really love that Salamander and his base.
