The BEST Old World Necromancer!

[@anealpilot6957]

Older sculpts have so much character and you did a fantastic job with it.

[@merchantprince7320]

This truly is my favourite Warhammer channel. I get excited when I see a new vid

[@chrismarselas4139]

One of the few characters to every cross Gotrek's path and lived to talk about it.

[@MaskedPwnzorz]

10/10 paint job. Also that skin poncho turned out fantastic!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Cheers mate!

[@richardbradley2335]

Stunning....years of experience and dedication right there !

[@paulshannon3139]

That flesh on the armour looks amazing!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks mate!

[@arandomlostsoul753]

That looks so unbelievably good! Well done mate. Definitely the best necromancer of them all. And I agree with you about the unsupported armies in The Old World, I won't be happy until they give us back the Chaos Dwarfs!!

[@TravvyBear262]

For getting the paint out of GW pots, use airbrush medium or an acrylic medium of your choice to "water" down the paints to a thinner consistency to then allow you to pour them into dropper bottles with small funnels. You can get the paint to the consistency you want to put directly onto a model, and then you will not need to water down the paint in the future for generic base coats and it gets the paint to a better container. Happy hobbying, cheers from the PNW!

[@MagnusMoerkoereJohannesen]

Well done, mate! Seriously, that's one of your best models yet!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks mate!

[@chaosincarna]

I cut off his staff top, made it a halberd, painted him like Rob Zombie and used him as a necromancer lord with some kind of 2 handed weapon in a zombie block. You would not believe how many heads he took from champions and leaders in my friend's armies. Was a hoot.

[@sirvivor7835]

lithographs or it occurred not!

[@knivesmcdougal6496]

How many witches did he burn through?

[@cliffjackson61]

Another amazing paint job! This channel just gets better.

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Cheers mate, I appreciate it!

[@Lord_Godd]

Crikey honey, there's a new Anvil of Doom video! Get the primer!

[@commentingisdangerous7530]

that looks amazing. you really did the model justice. fun fact kemmler was the first unique named character made for warhammer.

[@Ruggfish]

It's so nice to see these old models get the love they deserve. I was literally talking about this model last night with a friend. I'm really hyped to see Krell if you get him!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

I’m on the hunt for Krell! As soon as I get him I’ll paint him up for the channel 💀

[@Ruggfish]

Fingers crossed you find it then! Your old world videos inspired me to pull out my old metal vampire counts and get them painted up. It's been so fun. I've got 11 metal black knights and 15 metal graveguard led by the Red Duke so far. Tempted to make a Mousillion force!

[@impetigoguy3570]

he looks fantastic

[@MonsterPainter]

I love this model.

[@jackhammer40k_]

Absolutely one of my favourite minis evah. Dude is so sinister

[@Zogrut]

Another banger Deets! Such eye catching saturation, vibrance and colours! Something definitely to aspire to mate ✌🏼

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks my dude! Glad you dig the colours! 🍻

[@huskarl5366]

fantastic work, just started converting over my old WHF skeletons to TOW bases and this video has really inspired me !

[@FloppyChopp]

Such a classic sculpt

[@tomrobbins-hill9587]

Hell yes! One of your best to date! Love the skin tone, definitely does this incredible old sculpt justice!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks so much dude!

[@QuackJAG]

Guy over at the Midwinter Minis KZbin channel has a video all about moving Citadel paints from their pots over into dropper bottles. Highly recommend.

[@davidpaterson2979]

Gorgeous model, fantastic job 👍

[@willmccleland2383]

This is so good, loved the paint job looks just how he should

[@benjamin3044]

Zombie Slayer and its few books within the whole Gotrek and Felix universe were some of the most intense. When its like 10 folks left with Gotrek, Felix and Kat I thought for sure everyone was going to die lol

[@WayneKemp-h6t]

Awesome, as always. Keep doing what you're doing.

[@philiphale2785]

Amazing paint job, really like a number of choices you made here. Thanks for sharing.

[@mikewicked.x]

Great outcome - love it. Vampire Counts are legal in TOW, they are just in the legacy rules, so no re-release of old kits, or an Arcane Journal book. I agree they should be included properly, but it's not the worst situation.

[@battlehawk1263]

Nice paint job, recently painted Kemmler myself.

[@intzbk1]

For Christmas for myself, I bought the AP Speedpaint and Fanatic sets and gave all my citadel paints to my great-nephew as he's 13 and just getting into the hobby. The problem with the Citadel paint pots is that paint dries in the lid and the lid doesn't seal. You can use a modeling tool to remove the dried paint and then they'll seal better but all in all it's a crappy design for the pot. The old 90's paint pots that are like the P3 pots were the best. I love this mini and wish GW would re-release it as it's hard to find for a good price. Thanks for the video!

[@mikenadeau8704]

I've been eyeing this one. He's expensive! Nice work!

[@nightfire734]

Trust me, you're closing the bottles. They come open on their own. You have to be constantly be closing them. AK Burnt Umber has been my go-to brown for most everything, it's just the best dark brown they have. Very opaque. Also, I believe Kemmler is the first named character in Warhammer fantasy (except Harry the Hammer).

[@nomusenopaint]

Incredibly nice paint job as always. For transferring Citadel paints to droppers...it takes a lot of time. So best strategy for me was getting an easy to rinse metal funnel, adding some matte medium by Warcolours I think to the pots, adding a stirring ball, put on a good movie (preferably one you already know) and grab some beers and just start. It'll take some sessions depending on the size of your paint collection 😇

[@huwtindall7096]

Dude that flesh cloak/apron thing is sensational

[@ironbomb6753]

Awesome figure I remember it well. I never had it tho, being an Ork and all....😂❤ You really brought this old blast from the past to life. Beautiful work. 👍

[@whatsthebeef8682]

loving your work

[@adrian.k1982]

It is the best looking necromancer ever ❤

[@merchantprince7320]

By the way to fix the crusting issue on GW pots you can actually use a bit of force and invert the top lid bit to release the clogged paint all in one go.

[@eriksolie511]

Bitchin-Stichin on the flesh-smock man! He's not Vampire Counts though, but just plain-ol' Undead! Pre-Tomb Kings. Great job as always!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks my dude! Sorry! Yes yes undead my bad, I’ve I always throw them in together haha

[@CheefIndian]

a resounding HELL YEA. Makes we wanna attempt my Isabella Von Carstein model from oldhammer.

[@TheEr910]

looks great

[@0045Vagnar]

Warhammer Renaissance all day every day!

[@Mrnobody-mo2pe]

You made a cracking job of that!!! The flesh Cape is amazing!

[@jcpouzols]

Looks fantastic!

[@mazubahtender]

It is very fitting that you would mention warpstone with those flames, considering that the second ever Warhammer scenario to feature the Lichemaster also introduced the Skaven into the setting.

[@Gumlass1]

I 100% think the old world will be expanded into more factions in future. They are selling out of the Cities of Sigmar dark elves all the time, but no one uses them in AOS.

[@nickdavis5420]

I agree 100% it’s the reason I haven’t gotten into old world I’ll just stick to one page rules .

[@AekoldoHelbrassio]

Dude you need to paint Aekold Helbrass. Stunning video btw

[@HallBr3gg]

Very Cool!

[@NummiAFI]

Heinrich, and his infamous skelly-bone minion, Krell! "Now where has that damn Krell gone off to again!?"

[@Triceratopping]

Classic Krell!

[@Breland1976]

Love this project! Keep them coming.

[@jtrain9926]

Looks amazing, I gotta dig my old Kemler out and revisit him, if for nothing more than my Mordheim warband. RE not closing your citadel pots, I find the little paint shelf in the cap lets dry paint build up behind the underside of the cap where the hinge is and that lets air in. Transfering to droppers is a lot of work, really wasteful for thicker paints.

[@AzraelThanatos]

I have one of him that I did a long while ago in a rush at the time due to needing a painted army, While I love that sculpt, I really prefer the later version of Krell, to me the original looked kind of goofy next to Kemmler while the finecast one actually seemed to make him menacing.

[@hogs0war]

I am still surprised I have this miniature as it survived where most did not to this day.

[@gwmullarkey]

Awesome Deets - I love this model!!

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

ANOTHER BANGER DIETZ

[@offroadturkey]

thats cool!

[@blackdenim23]

This rules Deetz!!

[@johnf.kennedy5454]

I think the Old World should have an Undead Army. It doesn't have to be a Vampire based army, it can be like the 1st - 3rd Editions using Necromancers like the Lichemaster or Dieter. Back then vampires were not the major focus.

[@mattbrennan798]

looking for an fun miniature with tons of character?....go for Grom the Paunch!!! or the robyn hood of warhammer fantasy-> Betrand the Brigand. I just found this Henriech figure out in the wild! thanks for the inspiration-that flesh cloak?!!? wowza

[@Stefan-w6w]

Well done and cool video again. But what happened to goblin green bases?!😉

[@TheAnchorite]

Definitely agree that TOW should have the 'legacy' factions as playable. Ridiculous that they were split apart like the children of a divorced marriage! (or even then you'd typically visit dad every other weekend...) My hope is that once the main factions are all released, that they would make summer campaigns - introducing & updating the pdf rules for a faction at a time. So for example the story could be that one of the Von Carstein's wakes up a bit early and goes on a summer vacation down to the border princes; then GW could release old Vampire Counts minis in a limited release for the duration of that campaign. Rinse and repeat for the other factions each year and you've got annual releases for TOW for the next dozen summers without too much legwork on their part.

[@floflotantan]

awesome !!! i have this fig but skull on top of the hat dont look that good. i dont know if its from factory and i have to clean it, its looks like it, but i am afraid to do it ^^ anyway, awesome paint job !!! oh wow !!!

[@holydiver539]

Dig the purple skin great video 👻👻👻

[@the_lichemaster]

Awesome paint job of my favourite mini. Definately Gary Morleys best sculpt (Orion a close second). Out of interest do you use any varnish for your minis if so what type?

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks mate! I agree 🙌 I don’t use any varnish because I’ve had a couple bad experiences which ruined my paint jobs 🥲 I’m on the hunt for a good one though

[@anvilofdoomminiatures]

Thanks for the link dude! I’ll check it out 🙌

[@lamMeTV]

I will give you 5 bucks if you ever paint a non ogre nippon mini

[@Gumlass1]

Re dropper bottles, I add 10-15 drops of airbrush thinner, give it a good shake / mix, then just pour it. A bit will stay in the pot, but I just throw that away.

[@wersiebenschlafer7849]

That's the best method. You can also use the remaining paint to create washes by adding more thinner or medium.

[@TravvyBear262]

Basically made this same comment just now, this is the way I did it and it worked great!

[@Gumlass1]

@@TravvyBear262 I made a mistake on the first few by adding more thinner to get more paint out. The paints still work, but separate really quickly and need frequent shaking.

[@MasterShake9000]

I’m not sure I know or want to know why you’re gloating that “Nobody can say anything”, because we don’t have to. Even if/when VC get officially added to TOW, they’ll never incorporate him given the tasteless name pun. Same reason they dropped Savage Orcs and renamed the Goblin Bolt Thrower.
