Warhammer 40,000 - Model Painting w/ Lewis, Sjin, Tom and Ben! 

GW is now so expensive Lewis had to sell his legs.

Lewis is actually legless

Didn't realise how much I wanted this video

My parents bought me a box set after I nagged them as a kid for like a week about 40k. We drove our way into the city and arrived at the games workshop where there were actually 2 king nerds in charge. I remember one of them was an arse; he was the elitist bugger that wasn't happy with children playing his beloved game at all if I had to guess. The other one was the nicest guy. He showed us around the shop, showed us the best sets and got me set up with my first army. (Space marines 4 life) Unfortunately, the paints themselves were a bit too pricy for my parents. So imagine my surprise when the benevolent king nerd winked and dropped 3 paint pots and a brush in my bag. Made my whole year right there. :)

This is so great. I love the idle chat.

Yes! A thousand times yes! More video's like this!

would genuinely be happy with a series of just the painting.

Oh shit. I forgot sjin was still in the yogscast during this.

Casual podcasting yogscast, oh hell yeah, oh god, and it's almost December...

The thing I dig about the Tau is (in the lore) they play the role that humans normally take in other universes. They're basically the Star Trek Federation.

Man I've just been painting a long time and LOVE painting And painting isn't about how good it is,it's about how much you put into it,and the pride you feel when you complete a model,what's important is you feeling proud of the art you make when you pick up the brush and pour your soul out into it,as each painted model is a piece of yourself,so don't worry how others think of it,all that matters is that you're happy with it and you love the model you paint.just gotta love the art, and love the soul you put into it,so sit back,relax,get out the paints,put on some tunes or whatever you want to listen to,and have a damn good time. Good luck,and good painting everybody

Finally, we're getting a Warhammer series. This video was fantastic, and I can't wait for more of the series. I'm also very excited to see/hear that so many people joined in for it.

Yessss

I am going to watch the fuck out of every single one of these videos. Tom and Ben make me moist when it comes to Warhammer, lol

funny/painful story about warhammer models, i was terrible at putting them together and painting them(i was like 7-8 when i started) so one of the guys that worked at games workshop decided to help me out for a few hours in the shop and teach me how to assemble and paint them, first thing he showed me was "the best way to get glue on the little brush in the glue pot is to flick the pot up and it coats the brush" but he didn't realize that i had already taken the lid off and the brush/lid was just sat on top of the bottle not screwed on, he flicked the bottle, the brush flew out, hit him in the eye (it was the glue for metal figures not plastic figures by the way) and get had to be taken to hospital in an ambulance. And i never saw him there again... I'm still shit at making/ painting figures.

The main reason they had to change paint names was because they switched paint manufacturer, the old company kept all the names, however they still produce the spray paint hence why that is still Chaos Black

"Orange for the orange bits, and silver for chrome!" -Ancient, totally unfamiliar Necron Painter Motto

It's like a podcast but with art. 10/10 oh fuuuuuuck

This is like a chill podcast, smooth cruising, lovely to listen to in the background.

It's amazing how after years of watching these guys, I've actually come to enjoy a video about 4 nerds painting tiny toy models about a game that I know nothing about.

I can't wait for this! Fuckin Yogscast is the best, from video games to board games to D&D and now to tabletop.

Once you notice that Lewis' legs are missing, you can't unsee it

Today on *the joy of painting*....

Good god my body is ready

WOOOOO! Im so hyped to watch this!!

Lewis's car key joke actually helped me understand what Ben was saying. I thought he was saying car key and not khaki.

BEN'S BEARD NOOOOOOOOO!

I've been thinking about getting into warhammer for a while now but I was so worried about the painting process. Props to Tom and the guys who gave a lot of good pointers. There were some really cool stories that make me want to really play the game (:

YES

Love this ^^ They were spot on with how good the world they built is, so many cool stories are possible without messing with each other because of how vast the setting is.

Girlfriend of 2 years just broke up with me. This is exactly what i needed. Thank you Yogscast.

If you were wondering Lewis was in a tragic accident which led to his legs being removed.

WOOP WOOP das the sound of Tau police

This is one of the best VODs I've ever watched.

I love all of the Yogscast, but this video really drives home how much Ben and Tom are my absolute all-time favourites. I finally understand those grandmas watching soap operas and believing they are actually friends with the characters.

@Tom @35:00. The Tau were cut off from the Imperium by a warpstorm for like, 5,000 years or something and when the warpstorm abated, the Tau had advanced to a a technological level way beyond that of the Imperium.

Will there be a Christmas day for Warhammer ? Would be so much fun!

Came back to your channel just for warhammer. Keep it up and stay faithful to the Emperor!

I've never played Warhammer and know almost nothing about it, and even still I found this to be so nice. Just like a chill hangout, almost podcast-y but with video. I'd love to see more of these "paint and chill" videos.

I could watch this all day

Am I in heaven?

As someone that has just ordered a ton of miniature games and plays armada, these videos on painting couldn't have come at a better time.

These are so cozy 💜

I think I'm the only one still watching this four years later, and I'm still disappointed that theres only two painting episode

YESSSSS FINALLY THE 40K CONTENT TOM HAS BEEN PROMISING I'M SO HAPPY MOAAARR!

I honestly love this format with no editing. More from this series please

Hell yes, more 40k videos. Also love the old school paint talk, good old Bad Moon Yellow,, one of the best yellows in paint I have seen.

For the Empruh, Bruvas!

Cant wait to see sjin play the Tau lmfao

I'm loving this. 100 years of painting figures!

This was super rambly and chill, sort of like a podcast with some interesting models thrown in. I love it.

MMMH daddy tom with his unbuttoned shirt

Been waiting so long for this i can't wait till there's more

You can tell Ben is truly a dad. Massive "Im listening" skills while Lewis rambles on, and he keeps working on his stuff. ;-)

More of these please. A thousand times yes. As long as you guys are into it of course!

Can we get a lesson from Tom on his tips and tricks? That would be awesome

gw paints are fucking great now

Duncan playing space wolves sounds like the most majestic thing that has ever existed

I like that they are doing this instead of at the start of them playing saying "Hey, this is a thing we are doing! And look at all these things we painted!"

FOR THE EMPEROR

I understand the drying out thing

I love the idea that the new office is so convenient that they can just whip up a new recording setup in a room to do this kind of thing.

Ben's roast of Lewis's models right at the end was worth the wait.

Toms tau canon is slightly off. The sector that was to be colonised by the imperium was cut off by a warpstorm for like a thousand years. In that time the tau evolved super quick to medieval level, before almost wiping themselves out in an orgy of tribal violence. This is the state the Eldar then found them in, and realised that the tau are almost immune to the powers and corruption of the warp and realised they could be a useful tool. So they genetically modified a few tau to have a pheremone gland from a species of space bee (as stupid as it sounds this was the original canon), and some kind of way to control them (its never mentioned how). They then dropped the modified tau on to the tau homeworld (tau'n) and within a short time they were a peaceful race dedicated to the idea of following the greater good preached by a new caste in their society called the ethereals that seemed to have complete control of tau society. Cut to a thousand years later when the tau have a small star empire and some of the most high tech gear in the universe. Oh and the character Commander Farsight that they mentioned, is a tau commander that lost all his armies ethereals and his army went a bit feral without their control.

This should be a podcast

This has made me so happy, been so long since ive done warhammer, but you guys have made me want to start painting again.. thanks guys!

This works pretty well as a podcast to listen to in the background. More please!

Lewis is like "When I was a kid, I couldn't afford all these super expensive models. Now, I am the founder of a successful 30-person company and I can just about afford it"

Damn right it's too expensive for kids. It's taken me four years to amass a 5,000 point army.

This is actually so entertaining. I've never played warhammer or painted models or anything, but this was almost podcast material and a bit of nice gentle content that was just so engaging. 10/10 cannot wait for more, and I really don't care if you don't end up playing!

literally just discovered you guys, but youve instantly summed up my warhammer childhood experience with the 'YOU THERE, EMBARRASSED ONE! WELCOME! COME HERE AND TRADE YOUR SOUL' - done - subbed!

oh fuuuuuuuck

When is this from?, they mentioned something like this a while back.

This seems like it would make an amazing podcast

This is funny. Just yesterday I was thinking to myself how much I would want a video of this crew just talking while doing something boring. I love their banter so god damn much.

This should be a stream

Is Tom the new Rob Ross of miniature painting? Or is Rob Ross the old Tom of oil painting? Don't drink and comment people. :D

Only finally! I've been waiting for this series on this channel since the first Tom and Ben Total Warhammer video!

Perfect video to listen to and paint my own models at the same time. More of this please guys!

Sjins appropriating Canadian culture again.

Lewis's tale of the citadel paints rings too true to home :(

I'm a fan of 40k, and am really looking forward to the continuation of this series!

2:10 I can't tell you how much i relate to Sjin right now .. xD

when yogscast was the yogscast.

It sucks because before EA (in my world) there was GW. Imagine, they are using the same models from 97 and are charging triple the price and yet production costs have all gone down. Best is when you hold one of the old Codex and look through it and realize all the greatest stuff has been replaced for worse stuff at a higher cost, even the paper.

I'm just about to start painting a huge ork army. More of these would be perfect to have on while I was painting. I've been catching your hints at this too, and I am happy to finally have it out. Thanks you guys.

Four people hanging around chatting is possibly one of the better things to watch.

Lol, Lewis is legless.

Bit standard but i prefer necrons with green highlights instead of orange i think

More videos like this please!!!! Loved it!! NEED TO GET TOMS SECRETS!

Definitely keep this up. I love table top games and honestly you guys introduce me to so many amazing games via videos like these. Plus loving the chill vibe of this video.

Shadow of Israphel Confirmed!!!!

Of course Sjin collects Tau

I adore this, so relaxed and nice. Please have more relaxed stuff like this!

Cant believe how much i loved this. BRING ME ANOTHER!

so who is lewis's dad?

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek DO MORE NOW I WILL PAINT WITH WARHAMMER 40K BEST WARHAMMET

I've been waiting for this FOREVER!! Thank you, thank you so muc!! Praise the Yogscast

I loved it! Do more paint sessions too! It's like a tabletop podcast! Brilliant!
