We need a Border Princes army. This model looks so good!

[@MiniatureRealms]

I’m working on quite a few of the Exiles are my list units for my own project, it’s loads of fun.

[@JoneZ2610]

I've always wanted to see a Grudgebringer army, based on the shadow of the horned rat game from the mid 90s. The Border Prince region has so much potential for mercenaries and dogs of wars.

[@toomanyminis.]

That came out so good man. Top notch.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@Svengar]

Some lovely conversion work there. No problems on my end from using AOS minis to be repurposed to Old World, only seems fair really since the original AOS range was 100% old WHFB minis until they started getting their own rolled out over the years. The end product looks really fantastic too, great paint job with pretty straight forward seeming tutorial on how you did it. Hope you have a great time at Warhammer World over the weekend 😀

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@Martin.W.F]

Came out way better than I thought it would. I love the way you paint, and I really hope to see some Orcs & Goblins from you in the future 👍

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊. Will definitely be covering O&G soon(ish).

[@tehlulzpare]

DAMN, I thought I'd have mine up first! And here I thought I was being creative haha. Jokes aside, that is brilliant, I love what you've done with yours and I hope mine is half as good!

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 🙂, I think there will be lots of these about, you’re not the first person to mention they’re doing them same.

[@intzbk1]

Awesome job! I'm adding magnets to my painted Tomb Kings models and then starting basing.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@rupertjones5197]

It’s like Saturday cartoons whenever I see you have a new video! Great work as usual dude! Keep it up and keep up the old world content! It’s bloody awesome

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you that’s really kind 😊

[@skinniestfatman5641]

found the perfect bombard for my Brets on myminifactory and itll fit my army as they will be from the Border Princes

[@MiniatureRealms]

It’s a great addition to the army list, can’t wait to see how games go with it.

[@skinniestfatman5641]

@@MiniatureRealms hopefully itll fire like a cannon, wot base size do they need to be on

[@thomaswilliams5005]

What model? I’m always interested in new models to 3D print

[@MiniatureRealms]

@skinniestfatman5641 It’s a 50mm square

[@skinniestfatman5641]

@MiniatureRealms that's a tiny base for a artillery and very tiny for the model I want lol

[@benhadaway3322]

Was planning on using this kit to convert the bombard myself. Good stuff.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you. I think there’s going going to be quite a few of us using the model 😂

[@BrushQuill]

No man in his pants? Pfft! lol. This is a great kitbash, and nice to see GW reverting to their "Bretonnians arnt 100 years war... honest" stance lol.

[@MiniatureRealms]

😂 Thank you 😊

[@imperialis.munns94]

Just discovered your Instagram and YT channel! Love this Bombard. I hope to put some of these techniques to good use with my own Empire artillery minis. Looking forward to seeing more!

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@yeahnah3erter]

Very nice. Some of the CoS range does have a very medieval flavour to it.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 🙂

[@toastmang]

Just found the channel , great vid will work my way through the others.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 🙂

[@VaneHartless473]

This came out great!

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 🙂

[@philRminiatures]

I do like this most beautiful and impressive bombard!!

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@cybertronbob]

I was in two minds about kitbashing this AoS set into an Empire cannon but seeing this video really show off the medieval design aspects has made me think about picking up an Empire cannon 2nd hand embarrassment instead. Might even cost me less!

[@cybertronbob]

Oops, auto fill running wild there

[@MiniatureRealms]

It’s definitely feels more medieval, the ropes add to that I think, but it could still work for Empire as well. But yes there’s plenty of Empire cannons on eBay as well.

[@robertwilliams-day320]

This looks amazing, but if anyone is after the old bombard wargames foundry sell them under their ex citadel range. Most of the oldest Bret stuff is there

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you, and good shout, there will be loads of useful stuff there.

[@FeinarCelion]

I am really like yor job! Cool!

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@jakobo88]

Amazing conversion dude... staple

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@johnoneill3654]

Absolutely fantastic paint job bud. Very impressive with the wood colours in particular personally. Keep up the great work, A1 🙌 When I heard bombard associated with the border princes I immediately thought of the Perry bombard. Probably wouldn't suit with GW minis but I would probably build a Bretonnian army mostly from Perry kits anyway. So I'd definitely go for that. Love the wooden cover being lifted in order to fire. As for Old World I'm waiting. Didn't even try and order anything as I knew it'd be snapped up straight away. I'm in no rush anyway. Have a ton of lads being slowly built up and I'd need to get tray extenders as well anyway so it'll be a while before I give the Old World a go. But looking forward to seeing more non NDA creators also play some games and fire out battle reports. Hope everyone who's getting something this weekend enjoys it 👍

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊 I love the old Perry ranges, they (and their current medieval ranges) would make a great Bret army.

[@jacklalaing5164]

It's a very interesting video with good tips. Unfortunately I don't have a bag of miscellaneous bits. Painting tips were good though. Maybe an organ gun can be next.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Sadly I don’t have the large bits box I used to, but all the bits were from leftovers from the men-at-arms kit, so anyone building Bretonnia army should have what they need. A organ gun could be fun, but I think the armies it’s used in (as far as we know now) will have them in their range.

[@GilthosDrakoniss]

👍👍

[@MiniatureRealms]

😊

[@adron1261]

Haha this was exactly my plan, soon as I heard bombard was back I thought if they don't release something that new aos cannon won't take much to be perfect. Great to see it done and confirm I was right about how suitable it is.

[@MiniatureRealms]

I think quite a few people will end up doing the same.

[@chrisgibson2774]

Looking super great Stu! Would love to see the army when it’s all done… will I be seeing you at release day?

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊. And yes, in Notts now, been playing Mordheim at WHW today, and back again tomorrow for launch.

[@AlexCopeMusic]

That's a great kitbash! I enjoyed this whilst building my first TK chariot :) I will be following your painting guides for these guys

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you 😊

[@Vorpal_Wit]

Just a tip, you gotta give more time between those focus transitions. It fatigues the eyes, because a focus transition makes your eyes try to focus for you and then when the transition is done your eyes need time to actually focus back and find something to look at. If the next transition comes before the eyes have comfortably adjusted, you are essentially keeping the viewer in a state of constantly trying to focus. It causes a lot of viewer discomfort. Starting at about 12:09 it starts to get painful. You are better off using straight cuts or very short cross-blends for segments that short as the focus transitions are almost as long as the segments being shown. At 18:23 You did a zoom transition almost right into a focus transition, and at 23:43 you did a spin-transition (sometimes called a "VERTIGO" transition) while the viewer is focusing on a screen-centered subject - thats going to make somebody throw-up. I'd recommend killing entirely any transition between the "show the paint" and the "apply the paint" segments, especially on a project this size, were there are lots of paint changes. Please take this critique in the spirit it was intended. I love your content, and I just want to enjoy it and maybe help make it the tiniest bit better.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you, appreciate the feedback, and I agree.

[@blindoutlaw]

More like Dwarf mercenary cannon crew

[@MiniatureRealms]

It would definitely look good with Dwarf crew

[@JaykeHallOfLegends]

Love this sort of content! Great kitbash, and wonderful painting

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you very much 😊

[@Proletariat1337]

Looks great as always! How the bloody hell do you paint in all the nooks and crannies?

[@MiniatureRealms]

Thank you. 😊 Luckily there weren’t too many hard to reach areas on this one.

[@petermillar8866]

"most people will have their hands on their rule books" someone has never pre-ordered from GW before.

[@MiniatureRealms]

😂 Yeah the struggle is real to get stuff on time these days

[@doriangoldmann8894]

Hy, really good dies for this kit. One question, are you varnishing After the oil step?

[@MiniatureRealms]

Nope I didn’t varnish here, I think I mentioned it in the video, but I maybe have edited that bit out. Now most of the time I would varnish before oils, but with these ready mixed ones I find they’re not that ‘harsh’, and over the Scale 75 metallics were fine.

[@Traitorsaviour]

Have a feeling wargames foundry might sell the original minis for the bombard, or something similar for anyone looking for a 3rd ed style army

[@MiniatureRealms]

They’re very good at spotting gaps in ranges so you may well be right, and there are definitely 3d printed options out there.

[@nordicmaelstrom4714]

I like the cannon but the crew seem off to me and I can't put my finger on it. Its not the painting or the kit bashing. Not sure what it is about them I don't like.

[@MiniatureRealms]

It’s probably just the aesthetic doesn’t match Brets enough for you, that’s cool though.

[@nordicmaelstrom4714]

I think I figured it out Stuart. I think its the sculpts that just don't do it for me. Its definitely not your painting. @@MiniatureRealms

[@TheStonehammerFiles]

Or one could just buy the war machines stls like I did and have a bombard.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Go you, but yes there are many good STLs as alternatives of course, but this video isn’t about them.

[@Nazgull2k1]

LOL Kitbashing... what is this? 1998? Resin 3D printer go wrrrrrr....

[@MiniatureRealms]

😂
