Chaos Terminators Warhammer 40k 2nd edition 

The groin arrow points to the taint of Chaos... :)

These are, quite literally, METAL!

I remember lusting after these in White Dwarf. Those sculpts are still so badass!

These chunky spiky bois are still the best. The new ones are fine, but Terminators that actually feel hefty just have that extra factor to them.

It was honestly insulting how much better theese looked than the regular loyalist terminators.

The amount of times i got stabbed by those trophy racks lol

His voice is like ASMR. Love putting these vids on as I go to sleep. I then watch them again in the morning to see how it all turned out.

I don't know what exactly it is, but these are among my favourite GW models of all time. Best Chaos Terminator sculpts for sure.

The reaper auto cannon was a fantastic weapon back in the day. Perfect light vehicle popper

10:02 the groin arrow is pointing at the taint of chaos

When i was a younger lad & in school i actually used 2 of these (that were broken) to take to school to put in the old schoool football socks & 'politely ask' the bully who kept spitting on my back to please refrain.....he didnt spit on me after that day!....great models with nice memories attached! Great video as usual! 😊

The only dry humour retro 40k channel I need ❤

Oh god the nostalgia ❤

It feels weird seeing my brothers in midnight clad having once been the favorite child of GW.

I only kept these terminators to accompany my chaos characters. Good show.

Foundation paints? Now there is a blast from the past! Not that they compare with the age of the terminators, but there is something about being in the hobby when those released--and then vanished--that hits a bit different than models a little younger than I am.

First ever white dwarf I ever read had abbadon and these terminators fighting space marines. Those pictures are eternally ingrained into my brain for some reason.

Those are insane! Well done. If you somehow got hold of those weird old plague marines thatd be wild.

These chaos termies look so good

Good show mate. I still have 10 of these painted up, towards the end of 2nd ed,in a proper WE red. Love the nostalgia, and the ambience.

i came back for old world and these are the terminators i rememeber, they are amazing when they came out

I’m really liking the paint job on all of your 2nd edition Chaos Terminators. Scream terror and awe yes very much scary do. Looking forward to watching the next painting of Chaos figures from yourself.

Great job, mate. I do miss being able to buy random bits from the back of White Dwart. Brilliant for conversions. Especially my Plague Marines. Gave one a rather fetching set of leathery wings. A bugger to glue on, though. Ended up borrowing my brother's soldering iron!🤣 Bit of a tip for blocking up gaps in the old slotted bases- matchsticks. Slightly cheaper than milliput but a great fit..👍Look forward to seeing your Plague Marines. Nice.

That biker gang you're thinking of is just the anime Mospeada.

Screaming terror and awww! Love those old models and what you've done with them.

I love the colour theme. Its not boring and gives a lot of soul.

This is the warhammer I first got into in the 90s. Dam, I get a good feeling every time I see these old boxes.

I just started hobbying and painting minis. I’ve been building and painting miniatures from Necromunda and 40k. Your videos have been really inspiring. I really want to build and paint some 2nd edition/earlier editions miniatures because of you! Thanks for sharing your craft and skill.

I had these. This box was the first 40k box I ever purchased, and I want to say the year was 2006.

Massive nostalgia hit of admiring these models on the shelf of my local GW back in the day!

looks awesome man! reminds me of my days painting old, squat black templar terminators xD

Thank you for commenting on using older rules editions. I started back in the 2nd -3rd edition era and always wondered why most players only used the latest editions. The rules were out there. They still existed but for some reason, they were never to be spoken of. It's part of the reason I started collecting old rulebooks as a sort of archive of the Forgotten. Great video, loved the paint scheme.

I ABSOLUTELY remember the old citadel foundation paints, and will be very sad on the day the last one of them dies on me. I was very amused to see you break out the gretchin green specifically for the base rim, because that is what I have been using for exactly that for years! These terminators of yours look great, I hope to se you document them in action some day in the future. A good terminator squad is the only thing my chaos army is missing at this point, but I am still hoping to one day get my hands on the first ones that were made, the generation before these, or to just print out my own in that rough size.

Looks good, always loved those models! Perhaps some day I'll get into old 40K, after I've painted my 400x 90s Warhammer Fantasy models in about a decade!

Very nice job, considering how busy they are visually. I remember the first time I tried painting one of these I realized I dont wanna actually play chaos anymore since painting them up is hard mode. lol

Perfect watch as I currently am finishing painting the current plastic abaddon and a new sqaud of temrinators to replace my older boys that have served me since 5th edition

Great job. I remember foundation paints and the shades released soon after.that paint book is great along with it's sister books space marines and vehicles

Wow, the '90s' finest figures, and a voice like Jarvis Cocker. This is soporific (in a good way) retro magnificence....

beautiful models these look great with such a nice paint scheme

These were so cool when they came out, still look great imo

I love that their grandma's have contributed to their trophy racks! "Thanks, gran, it'll go perfectly beside the skulls of my enemies!"

I have it on good authority that the groin arrow in fact points towards the "Taint of Chaos"

love your channel. I got into the hobby i think in 2nd edition. I love it still to this day. Super fun and nostalgic, videos like this. Subbed

"Groin arrow". Nice.

Have a soft spot for the older Chaos minis, especially the metal Terminators. I have 9 of these with 2 older Rogue Trader Chaos Terminators in the mix.

Awesome! Going to have to watch this a second time, so good

Seeing this upload's notification pop up on my phone while I was at work today made my rough shift just a little better knowing I had this to look forward to! Become my favourite tabletop channel, keep doing cool stuff dude!

Awesome video, love the old 2nd and 3rd edition models

Well that didn’t take long!

Great models and a great paint job. It’s ‘96 all over again.

I wonder if Warhammer will still exist in 20 or 30 years... Maybe one day I'll create a nostalgic RU-vid channel about how I started playing 40K in 2018 !

I'd love to see you make the classic cactus terrain and eventually the Nightlords painting tutorial! I loved the video.

they was a pain in the ass to clean from mold lines. I had 20 of them. 15 of them ordered in single piece order from the mail order. I was young and stupid. This order was so expensive.

Awesome man. Go your own way! Love that!

I always use a tan or light brown under gold. It allows one coat of gold. Forget where I learned that, but it works.

For the future metal minis, try MrHobby Metal Primer (glass square bottle, red sticker). You should find it in most of the scale model shops. It's a transparent metal primer, you brush it on the mini before applying normal primer. In theory it's designed for aero, but I'll never sacrifice an airbrush for such an aggresive stuff. I have absolutely ZERO paint chipping on me even when I managed to drop minis few times on the floor, this stuff is amazing.

Loved these sculpts, especially the different animal horns designs.

One of my favourite 2nd edition chaos rules was their ability to take “modern” wargear to show marines could still fall to chaos or just be considered renegade/traitor due to some misunderstandings. Personally I always liked the traitor marine approach rather than the cartoony, mutant things they became. My chaos army at the time was mostly made up of converted loyalist marines with imperial symbols removed/abused, and a bunch of the early armour mark sculpts from mail order.

Would love to see some Noise Marines. With their old colour scheme it would be a hell of a painting video.

Did someone pointed out already, that there is some amazing second edition terrain in the background? 😍😄

For some reason my wife found your video hilarious and said "I didn't know your hobby was so amusing". Not sure why, she's never been interested in the number of different shades of black paint I have.

I do the exact same thing for sponges; push a bit through an old paintbrush protector, I have several varying sizes of the tube so I can select a "sponge brush" the right size for the surface I want to paint with it. Likewise I have no idea were I first saw it, but it works.

The bulk of my Berserker army is STD/TL&TD-3rd edition era and these are still in it. Gloss cherry red and matte brass/black was a pain back in the day. And I swear I'll get around to rebasing them some day, although their feet hanging off the edge of the 25mm gives enhance that bulky look.

Awesome. That rhinoceros horn is something else. Don’t think any of the newer ones have that.

pods of 3 chaos terminators were the way to go in 2nd ed. so many options to choose for them as well

I don't know why any painting videos use music other than smooth jazz. It's perfect.

Nostalgic. Nice job 👍🏻

Great paintwork on some fantastic miniatures - I never had any of the Terminators (besides Abaddon) myself, but I remember a friend lending me one of his to paint, and how much fun it was (and slightly painful as you noted, with all the spikes - that's a problem that's gotten worse with plastic, now the points are even pointier). I appreciate the look into the codex as well - I have one but haven't properly read through the rules of late (I just look at the pretty pictures), I'd forgotten Chaos Termis could be upgraded to Noise Marines and have sonic weapons. I've used up all the Termis on hand just now, but next box I get, at least one of them's definitely getting a blastmaster and garish paint job.

Oh excellent! I was hoping for some spikey bois!

Very cool! They were so chunky and heavy. Gorgeous sculpts. You’ve really done them justice 👏👏👏

Absolutely love dads jokes on this channel

@10:04 The arrow is pointing to the "taint of chaos"

Genuinely get excited seeing a new vid from you mate. Definitely my favourite mini painting channel by far.

I miss the weight of metal miniatures so muich that i superglue pennies in 25mm bases and quarters in 40mm ones. I chop out the tubes with nippers if the quarter doesnt have room. makes the models less likely to tip over and gives them a nice weight

You made an amazing work. It's an excellent result👌🏻 If you are interested in a little advice, apply the decals before the weathering and scratches and paint some of them over the decals. This will further integrate the decals into the miniature. Greetings from Spain.

looking great!

Great paint job again. And I didn't know the blades attacked to their ranged weapons actually added a boost in combat if you haven't already fired them that turn.

Thursday night just got REAL!

Beautiful job friend. Kudos.

I love your whimsy, great narrative 👌🏼

Metal Chaos terminators also double up as effective caltrops... if you're being chased a by barefoot ruffian.

So nostalgic watching these, I still have them as well as my chaos dreadnought, its spiky tip still intact, too. If you have the paints and ever get a chance to paint a Goff, try using stegadon scale green instead of thunderhawk blue and sybarite green instead of fenrisian grey, for a different tone of black armour. It's a fun different kind of result.

Nice Biker Terminators ! ! !

OH i love it real metal for real chaos realy very cool sculpts !

Looking good. I’m slowly painting up a 2e style Space Wolves force and will be coming up on my terminators soon. All ‘Evy Metal :)

In my opinion ,the best Chaos Terminators ever. Thanks.

I wouldn't worry about the base sizes. Anybody that is going to make a fuss about that, isn't anybody you would want to play against anyway.

I'm pretty sure these exact sculpts were redone in plastic for about 5th edition as i too have painted these sculpts .

I remember many blisters of these on the walls at my LGS. Always cool, I didn't play Chaos but did have a fondness of the enemy as much as the ally. The 2000's plastic Chaos TDA just did not hit the mark, not till the latest 'bigger-big' version, did GW hit the mark of how these looked. Now I need to go fight Chaos in Chaos Gate!

Been looking forward to this since I saw your insta post. Fantastic job! 😃

I love how your so sarcastic "with the abundance of hair stylist in the warp" when making mention of the non existing dermatologists of the warp! Hilarious 😂 so much passive aggression 😂😂

Just stunning!

I love the style of your old school art. You seem to just slap the paint on with a kind of unsteady hand, using well worn out equipment, yet the miniatures that you produce, come out somewhat perfect, for the style you are creating. Your deadpan humour is great too! Lol! 😂 Metal miniatures are also not the easiest to paint and turn out this good.

Still have around ten of these boys laying around!

Well worth the wait; they look awesome! A fitting bodyguard to ol' Abby for sure... 😎🤘

Looking great matey

I wish they scaled up those same sculpts for the modern game. Great video, mate!

Really cool. 👍

making me want to get some old kits too now. most of which will be older than I am

I still have ten of these dudes to do. My colour scheme: Dirty white on brown with grimy green as spot colour as a proper Nurgle renegade group.
