Painting Warhammer like it's 2003!

The Beastmen Beastlord was one of my favourite models as a child, and now I can finally paint it how I always wanted!
I've been stripping the paint off a load of my old metal Warhammer models that I still have from my childhood. Take a look over some of the collection and follow along as I use these to refine my painting skills, and give these models a new lease of life!

😂 I totally remember how much of a pain in the arse glueing metal miniatures was, but I discovered the solution of pinning!.. and it's so nostalgic to remember pinning, because you don't really see hobby channels demonstrating pinning except the odd one here and there for attaching the miniature to the base, but pinning was used a lot back in the day with metal miniatures. Try it for your next piece.

I've got vivid memories of pinning a Daemon Prince when I was about 9/10 using the original GW pin vice and brass rods 😂. It didn't cross my mind to do it for this! I'll definitely do a pinning video at some point - Amazon sell multi-pack sizes of carbon fibre rods which are brilliant for it. Thicker ones also make good flying stands!

[@Morghammer]

I recognise that Nutella tub of basing mix!🤌

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Doesn't taste very nice

[@Tom_Quixote]

"Like it's 2003". Oh you sweet summer child.

[@antonmorozenko6348]

Looking forward for LOTR and oldhammer) Maybe little more for LOTR, they are really interesting)

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks Anton! Lord of the Rings it'll be soon then.

I am settling in to enjoy this series, with a cup of warm nostalgia in both hands

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Legend! More to come soon 😉

[@mickbrilliantfootballeroft327]

Good Job.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks!

[@patrickvd7587]

Great paintjob for a great sculpt. Thank you!

[@DireDiceTabletop]

No, thank you!

[@samhoban2509]

I’d only like to see every single miniature painted. But…especially the chaos terminators 😊

Great job! Keep it up

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks! You keep up being awesome 👍

[@MrMockigton]

that basing is absolutely out of era for that particular model. have a gander at the old beastmen book from 6th edition, all the base trims are graveyard bone. you can even see it in the reference pic youve shown in the video. that really curled my toenails towards the end.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

I'm colour blind so browns/greens aren't the best for me, but this is great advice for the rest of the Beastmen I have to paint for my personal army!

[@MrMockigton]

@@DireDiceTabletop that explains the lacking "redness" in the leather of the pauldrons, thought you went for a more muted brown because you fancied it more. considering this, it is an awesome job. if you were to repaint the base trim in a light drab brown (xv88 would be a modern counterpart), youd make me incredibly happy. lets just say: it would satisfy my inner Monk.

[@goforitpainting]

Really cool. 👍

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thank you!

[@pawelkarolak3451]

Great job and +2 S for the White Bat 🦇😉

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Soothes my soul

[@OrakelofDeath]

Okay... this looks interesting. I will give your channel a follow to see, if I can get a few ideas for my own painting-projects.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Legend, great to have you watching!

[@captainkarnage9874]

Pro tip If you want super glue to bond easier wet both surfaces

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Makes sense, works with other things too!

[@skunk12]

Whats up with metal Tom Bombadil? 🙂

[@DireDiceTabletop]

GW and Diagostini were somewhat ahead of their time with regard to the models they put out and made available in this series. Profits probably came in to it as well 😂. Stick around to see the series!

[@skunk12]

@@DireDiceTabletop yeah, I'm watching. That was my way of requesting to see you paint that mini up!
