Steel Coffins - Part 1 - Warhammer 40k animation

[@thetruth45678]

After the Astartes fiasco and the loss of TTS, I thought we'd never see another production of passion on that level ever again. I am pleased to know I was wrong.

[@Wayoutthere]

GW will jump on this the moment it goes viral...

[@anon5252]

What was the Astartes fiasco? I've seen the five part series, which was incredible, but was unaware there is controversy surrounding it?

[@thetruth45678]

@@anon5252 GW hired rhe creator and fucked him.

[@mrmice9078]

@@anon5252 I'm not in the loop but I know that the GW guys bought out the dude that made the Astartes series and now he's probably in development hell. Legit GW should have to pay royalties to AD2000 for ripping off like half of their material, and yet they're stingy with other people. Bizzare. Remember that these marketing people and CEOs make more money than you ever will as a white/blue collar worker, for costing themselves money and shuting down fan projects.

[@martinstuvland8620]

@@anon5252 Maker of Astartes got offered to work directly with GW. Which, for all intents and purposes, and even though he says himself it's a good deal, likely will reduce the quality of his work because GW eventually will come with a "voluntary suggestion" he can "choose" to follow or not.

[@OGSpaceMarine]

This is like the guardsmen version of Astartes because it looks so dang good

[@Zeethil1]

Honestly, this is looking very promising

[@jackkurze2618]

It really is. You've got my sub and may the Emperor keep the forces of the Great Devourer ('s legal team) away

[@borisdorofeev5602]

I like this and the people are definitely dedicated and talented. But Astartes was very lore accurate with the designs of everything. This screams "no can't copyright strike" because the tanks and aircraft aren't of any standard Imperial designs. Even the space ship they drop from has a similar but noticeably very different prow and ram.

[@justinjimenez8015]

Shhh not so loud.

[@taylormurphy2551]

Guardsmen are always more interesting than those armored freaks :)

[@0x.h.x720]

@@62sy GW takes down warhammer related fan content which really does them more bad than good, and other warhammer fans don’t get to see those fantastic animations cause they got taken down.

[@ChaoticVoicesofAndreas]

Absolutely stunning stuff! Can't WAIT for the next part!

[@TheRyujinLP]

Looks like Hired Steel has gotten the ball rolling for more quality fan content.

[@benlubbers4943]

I love how this both resembles and differs from the Astartes short film. Both feature an insertion from a spacecraft, but where the Astartes are silent but immediately drop into extreme action, the Guard are slower to deploy and in their own way more methodical, but actively chatter and act far more human. The Guard also deploys tanks of course, because they're the goddamn Guard. It really feels more like the Hammer of the Emperor winding up for a devastating blow. Fantastic work, both the animation and the voice acting.

u really had to take lords name in vain?

[@benlubbers4943]

[@jamescarter8693]

[@paulussturm6572]

Once again, the community outperforms GW and produces quality they can only dream about. Nice job, good luck and keep this coming!

[@TheRealStrikerofLife]

The worst part is they dont even need to dream about it they hired Syama Pedersen. They could do it and easily but GW wants to do it on a budget smaller then my mortgage payments. honestly i like 40K i really do but with how GW is behaving and its getting worst not better im slowly finding my self shifting to Battle tech.

[@cheeserdane]

You did good intern, you did good.

[@Manfromthenorth0551]

People on here talk about GW taking down fan animations but as far as i know they haven't done any of that. Most of the taken down animations are from the creators themselves. Meanwhile there are plenty of animations coming out with hundreds of thousands of views and not being taken down. Hell, one of the SODAZ animation reuploads has almost a million views and is over 2 years old and hasn't been taken down.

[@nickangelini9799]

Given the quality of animation and sound design, this could be on the same level as Astartes.

[@Hiddenronin]

I sometimes worry that GW has forgotten the Gothic aesthetic and feel that made 40k so unique and enthralling. The setting being a combination of Science fiction and Gothic horror is what makes it so unique. I'm glad to see the fans haven't lost that spark.

[@SkylordLuke]

[@BLK_MN]

Very nice. Can’t wait for more.

[@KillTeamHungary]

Yes!!!!!!

[@Damocles178]

Absolutely beautiful from start to finish. Really nails that 40k Aesthetic. Animations like this make me wish there was more 40k Computer Games with you actually playing as a Guardsman be it on foot or as part of a tank crew. I could see a 40k game in a similar vein to Operation Flashpoint working rather well.
