The Raptor

- This is a short Warhammer40k fan film i made on my spare time.
It started as a small learning experience and ended up being a short fan film.
I found inspiration from all kinds of places such as the amazing Astartes, Starcraft 2, The lord inquisitor, Iron man and many others.
This is my homage to those inspirations.
Its made in Blender and cut together with After effects
Music is composed in Logic Pro X

Thanks for the support and feedback everyone. A little clarification for those who wonder. This is in part an intentional homage to both Starcraft, Astartes and the other inspirational sources i had when making this. They deserve every bit of credit for their respective amazing quality, and the inspiration they gave helped me move this from a small side project into a more substantial short film.
For those who want to take the time and watch it again, i uploaded a variant with a heavier Bolter sound to my Artstation page based on popular demand!
Mate, This is absolutely incredible, quite possibly the best animation work I have seen, Yourself and Astartes are by far my favourite animators now
Honestly valid. Well done mate.
The underglove definitely reminds me of the Crysis nanosuit and I can see other references in there as well! Very well done!
Awesome Just Awesome
I seen Valrak had it up and came to watch urs Strsight from the Source as To Subscribe like & Ring Dat Bell!
what a great way to start the day. it reminded me of the scene with Tychus from wings of liberty
may the Emperor's light continue to shine upon you
Watching this made me think "God i wanna be in this world" then I remembered its 40k
Under no circumstances would I ever go into the 40K world. And I speak as someone who has played the game since 2000
The Horror... The Horror 😱
With that attitude you'd become a servo skull.
The world of 40k is AWESOME! From a Far... Far away...
Yeah, atleast in the starcraft world they give you a chance to live life. But 40k? Even as a terran, that life is hell.
Coming back from GW armoring Space Marine. I still prefer your a bit more.
They both work in the their own context. Ultramarine is by the book very ritualistic, while the Raptor is pragmatic and efficient.
The Ultramarine screams low Gothic Fantasy, while Raptors is dark sci-fi.
and they both have their place in the grimdark 40K universe
Yeah i also thought that some chapter utilize the ritual part to armor an astartes while others are more efficient with that process both are primaris so i guess some chapters have traditions and the others don't but im just rambiling now lol
I like the new GW more. The Mechanicus rituals and gothic feel of 40k is depicted far better.
Everything about modern entertainment is too in your face and spoonfed, in my opinion. The GW one looked gorgeous, but I didn't like how the marine talked the whole time. It was also too long and a bit repetitive. It wasn't bad, but this was better.
@@Gunnar001 no doubt it is In the grim darkness of the far future theirs only war
@@godofimagination It's possible they're just trying to reach out to people not familiar with the setting. Business wise, this is new and expensive territory for them.
You know this still perfectly fits with how GW's rendition of the "donning the armor" goes
Of course the more practical and pragmatic Raptors would say "screw most of this ceremony bs where they put on my armor manually, have a machine do it so it's quicker"
it's the Raptor. They don't even have a battle cry to preserve stealth
I've always loved the Raptors above all other chapters specifically because of their brutal pragmatism versus the usual campy rituals many other chapters have.
they dont need all the ceremonies to put on armor, they are weapons to be sent in and get the job done, which fit the raptors pretty well
They act more like a strictly military order as the Emperor envisioned his Imperium and its armies to be unlike the religious fanatic bs that most of the other ones do.
Games Workshop honestly doesn't deserve the fact that they have some of the highest quality fans out there.
It goes hand-in-hand with also having some of the worst tbh.
If battletech had guys like this I'd be a wrap for warhammer
Games Worshop can merely build a better fan. It is a simple matter of genetic manipulation and cybernetic enhancements. All hail Games Worshop, and all hail the Machine God!
@@montecarlowithdawningornam1817lolwut
Amen brother. I was having trouble getting out of my Lamenters Terminator cosplay. I said to my wife, "machine spirit is strong with this one. And I usually pilot Centurions!"
It's stupid, but yeah, GW hit FCKING paydirt with this whole thing. For YEARS to come.

My thoughts exactly, it was still good though
😢 bring back Tychus
To compare a criminal and a traitor to our proud astartes... (ignores chaos)
Yup, I thought that too
*Space marines: so cool that you just watched one get dressed for 3 minutes.*
Dressed🤦🏼♂️
Women so uncool we could watch the get undressed all the time
Nah, the real armouring up is on the latter half, the first half just him walking into armourium.
Anyone else notice that at the end when he racks the bolter, a round actually cycles into the chamber
I did notice, its a very nice detail 😉
I like the idea of the different chapters having wildly different ideas about armoring. For the Ultramarines, there's all this pomp and tradition, while the Raptors prefer to do it quickly, cleanly, and efficiently. Incredible video.
It's maddening how many good animators the 40k community has, but instead of hiring those people and making something that could be the greatest sci-fi movie ever, Games Workshop just goes ''Hahaha mobile game money machine goes WAAAAAGH''
these guys do it to get their talent out there, advertised. Resume of sorts so they get hired pretty quickly by big studios usually. ether way the quality warhammer stuff is usually where 3rd parties dont have a influence like most media's quality issues these days
They don't have infinite money ya know.
@@oatlord Lets begin with the fact that they're worth 3.4bn on their own. Then there's the investors, the community, their multiple source of incones from various franchises.
Yeah, they could, money isn't an issue, lack of dedication is.
@@Bublito they're under no obligation to provide animation. They sell little plastic miniatures first.
@@oatlord And now you're just making pointless arguments for the sake of not looking stupid.
They've made a movie already.
They have several short films.
They now have a partnership with Marvel
They have 3 studios dedicated to 3 type of animations, Animated, CGI, real time.
For each of those studios, TV series / movies were announced.
Your point?
I don’t understand why they need all those magnets and locks for the armor; a drop of plastic glue should do the trick
To hold it in place.
@@frankcastle9691 (*psst* he's making a joke about how the models are just put together with glue.)
@@bobross9581 oh lol that one went over my head
And all that work for a 3+ armor save...
What a wise tech priest!
Considering that Raptor is one of the most rational chapters in w40k, I think this armoring style is also suitable for canon. No incidental ritual, no abundance of manpower, just automated sequences for efficiency.
And a tech priest to make sure everything is blessed as they speed through armouring of course
Meanwhile in the official armouring of the space marine:
"I am iron. I am Wrath. I am..... Doom."
Battle brothers: "You're fucking late, that's what you are."
Imagine the horror when the zerg realize it's not Tychus.
Wheeeeze. Thats a good one.
Hell... It's about time
No, it is a bigger tuches.
Astartes: These Tyranids feel a lot less weaker than usual

@@ethannelson3285 that is very true
I was thinking that the moment he stepped into the boots.
@@ethannelson3285 totally agreed
I still do not understand how is it possible that fans are able to create such animations which capture the atmosphere of 40k much better than official ones. Indomitus trailer was somewhat step in the right direction but it still felt too cartoony, why just does not GW hires people behind animations like this or Astartes.
You're telling me the setting with comedic space orks, undead robot Skelton's, space dwarves, and over the top grim dark themes is being portrayed as too cartoony? Really?
In reality the warhammer 40k franchise would likely be better off in anybodys hands other than GW.
@@matthewbrewer8318family friendly Disney? Komoney? Wizards of the scam?
Gw hasn't always been a good company, but it's not the worse
@@doomkingraye7692 okay you made your point. lol I concede.
I understand what you mean about it being cartoony (ish?) I suppose they want to appeal to a larger audience and want to make it approachable without completely undoing the grim dark?
Love how this can be juxtaposed to the more recent Ultramarines suiting-up animation. Their "poster-child" status in the Imperium and their high profile & resources reflect in that heavily ritualized, embellished sequence, whereas the Raptors here are more no-nonsense, straight-to-the-point, suit up and kick ass.

Was expecting him to say "Emperor its about damn time..."
Yep me too
Mister Tychus...Your retribution awaits.
i love the way the armor looks. most of the time people make the armor way too big and/or thick which it makes the space marines look like babies wearing big boy clothes.
That Purity Seal deserves a standing ovation. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

A chaos version of this would be fun.
At least one menial serf death and three humanitarian crimes later, a Night Lord has put his boots on. Now the shin guards…
You know...it IS possible to like BOTH this animation AND the GW one, and appreciate them both for their differences as well as similarities. Doesn't have to be either/or....just saying....
precisely
Indeed... The one by GW is actually very fitting with regards to the aesthetics and ritualism that prevails in the lore of 40K...
Agreed. I feel like this animation fits the more practical nature of the Raptors themselves, while the GW one fits much more with the religious side of the Astartes and Imperium. Both have their merits.

I was like "I think I've seen this before..." I think the maker definitely took some ideas from SC2 armoring process and Crysis nano suit.
hell its about time
@@kurtjustiniani1354 look like? Its more likely rigged over the SC2 sequence.
I refuse to believe GW didn't crib this off of you for their new cinematic.
You did so well on this though. I shall remember you.
Honestly, the only part when I had goosebumbps in the Geedub version was the ending.
*"I am doom."*
I like this better than the GW Ultramarines version. Moreso as this is made by one person in their spare time.
the funny thing is if you really look at it overall, GW straight up ripped this one off to make theirs
@@tsgmatthew2975 And both ripped off the Marine Tychus arming for Starcraft 2. We really doing this? Pretty standard from what I expect arming a Space Marine would go.
Good work for it just being one person, but I prefer the Ultramarines one from GW. Reason being it takes its time and shows the ritual behind arming one of these angels of death. It shows the servitors reverence towards the space marine. Not saying this is bad, by any means, need to stress that, just that I personally prefer the other.
@@TheMetalfreak360 while servitor sacrum stuff is nice, whole GW animation feels... weird. Lightning is weird, animation and movement feel like underwater, camera movement is random, music crescendo doesn't match climax scenes, adn overall it feels like textures of play-doh... I know little of 3d animation, but it's like with pilot license, I don't have to have it to see plane shouldn't be burning
@@TheMetalfreak360 Warhammer existed before star craft 1 though? Isnt it described in the lore how these units where armored? Warhammer inspired star craft units, or am I mistaken
@@koettfaers That.is.the.idea.jpg
What I meant was that everybody is ripping everybody off all the time, I honestly don't think it is that bad as many try to point out between this and GW's.
can all the 40k fan animators just unite already? There is enough numbers and talent to make a full 40k movie studio by now
True. There must be a way in which to make a collaboration despite the enormous distances between them in this age of video calls and video conferencing...
Isn't what the exodite team is doing ?
I see this was heavily inspired by the Starcraft 2 trailer when Tychus was being suited up
Yes.
He is inspirate, with Astartes fan fiction, and other references.
I thought it was a reference to halo spartan ops
It's a return to the roots, starcraft was heavily inspired by 40k
That's right. The power pack ventilation fan system??????????
I've always wonder what the hell that thing does.
Before 2:00 I thought it was a Tyrant in RE
Personally I think both armoring videos are good. Each one representing how different culturally each chapter is. The ultramarines are very ceremonial and regal with their armoring. Meanwhile, the raptors simply arm themselves as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Their whole shtick is practicality, so it fits.

*puffs a cigar* its about damn time
Compared to the "official" one, I'd say this version has a lot more 'meat' or mass to the armor. Which is what I would expect from a power suit which is both a tank and a fully-enclosed enviroment. Good job on animating this!
To be fair, the shoulders made more sense in the official one. You wouldn’t really be able to bend your arms in this version of the armor. I’m talking about the under pauldron, not the bigger one that goes over it.
It’s interesting to me that in 40k they would still be using torches and candles and going back to the medieval age but high tech robots and shit
that's.. like a pillar of it's personality.
Game workshop asked for licence of Lotr ( Lord of the rings ) they wanted to make board game out of it - did not get it, so they made Warhammer , then Blizzard asked for licence of Warhammer , they wanted to make video game out of it - did not get it, so they made Warcraft and Starcraft , then BioWare asked for licence of Starcraft , they want it to make 3d person shooter out of it and guess what they did not get it , so they made Mass Effect !!!

The best suit up in my opinion, no ritual, no bullshit, just no nonsense automation. And The helmet looks badass af!
The Raptors are a very pragmatic, calculating, no-nonsense chapter - opposite side of the spectrum from the Black Templars, if the Ultramarines are in the middle. They'll also paint that armor olive drab or whichever other color that's actually stealthy when it's important.

@@berzercher couldn't agree more.
How it felt putting on winterclothes as a kid❤

Every chapter has its own armoring rituals, so who says this isn’t the way it can be done by one chapter. Love the starcraft inspiration. This was very well made
And most of those overly complicated armoring rituals are for the very first time an Astartes wear their armor; for the most cases, when time is of the essence, their armoring is more or less efficiently put.

I always thought that the Space Marine armor was just way too simple and undetailed to be anything but cartoonish. Seeing the inner workings and complexity of it here really sells that this is the 40th Milienum, and not just a bunch of plastic minis.
Thats what I felt as well back in the day, I thought they looked too much like buzz lightyear. But I understand how it can be difficult with the minis and not overloading them with detail. But then again, I'm not a Space Marine fan, I got into the series through the Imperial Guard and human point of view stories. I was fascinated with Dark Heresy and the Dan Abbot Novels.
Yeah. Though i do have one little complaint. The shoulder armor (pauldrons i think?) Would not need nearly as many or as complex connections. Its effectively just shaped metal. Like i saife though thats a small complaint for the detail this provides
@@timothycotner3492 It is probably apart of the Black Carapace and has redundant connections and processors for helping control the arms and hands.
@@timothycotner3492 They're Raptors. Those connectors could be for extra armament, sensors, jetpack or other mobility options not present in 'normal' Astartes Power Armor.

I really appreciate how well proportioned the armor is. It doesnt have the cartoonishly large pauldrons and boots that some licensed art has.
The Bolt Rifle too. Most aesthetically pleasing Bolter I've seen
It makes sense when you consider the source material - early Warhammer minis were designed according to the limitations of creating minis at the time. Today, even for models, it makes sense that their designs is a bit more according to actual human proportions.

sorry wrong game :)
Starcraft started as a 40k game before the licensing deal fell through (ever notice the similarities between the zerg and tyrannids?). So it's basically an alternative universe. Close enough.
@@th3oryO Similarities between Terrans and Imperium as well, and Protoss with Eldars
Fuckin love it. Only thing is i wish the bolter sounded a little meatier
Agreed. Bolter sounds like it has a silencer
@@spencercarter8150 We don't see enough stalker bolter action, that'd be cool to see.
Agree, felt like the bolter was firing .223 instead of a .75 cal mini rocket
@Ban this youtube Well not quite, bolter shells have an initial charge unlike a gyrojet.
@Ban this youtube The RPG 7's (and most other rocket propelled systems) initial charge is simply for pushing it beyond the operator so the rocket can fire without burning the person who fired it. So it does not need to be very strong. In addition the rocket is often below the speed of sound, anywhere from 100m/s to 300m/s. MANPADs can get to above the speed of sound. However the rocket motors and the fuel are much much bigger than the warhead itself if you want to reach those speeds. Furthermore, MANPADs start out subsonic whn initially launched but transition into supersonic. Bolters do not have a transition.
The 40mm grenades meant for use in handheld applications, such as in the underbarrel grenade launchers, have much less powder to make firing them comfortable. Thus they are much lower velocity than a bolter would need to be. Even the 'high velocity' grenade rounds used for mounted grenade launchers are below the speed of sound and rely almost exclusively on their explosive charge and fragments to deal damage.
Bolter rounds on the other hand are meant to pierce armour and flesh and have been described as being supersonic or hypersonic depending on the book (in universe it can be explained as simply different ammunition or even a different atmosphere). Even without the warhead it's meant to pierce through thick armour with only heavy vehicles and power armour being able to withstand the kinetic force of a bolter round.
Additionally, if the powder was simply used as a booster charge to get the round away from the launcher and out of harms way, then the recoil would be relatively light. However it's been described as being enough to break an unaugmented human's arm.
Make no mistake... War is coming. With all its glory... and all its horror.

Why I'm hearing
You've earned yourself a purity seal
Only thing that seems a little off/unnatural is movement physics of the marine, everything else though is fantastic! models are really detailed and the lighting really gives depth to al the scenes!
You should get on the Astartes team... I really do hope they will hold up and actually release a film.
Movement is just fine. It has that heavy feel, as it should. I really like it actually
@@nemanjadakic it feels stiff and unnatural not heavy, there is a massive difference
I agree, sometimes the movement felt a bit like stop motion when it should feel smooth. Not hating because everything else is pretty great. Just one thing the creator should work on moving forward.
@@agustinramirez6582 mhmm, movement is definitely an extremely difficult thing to get to feel natural when done by hand
@@randomfurrygirl548 I watched the video again now and I just realized that first comment is probably about marine movement without armor. I thought the comment was about the last shot when he is full equipped, which is not bad shot at all. So yes, it is little unnatural if we analyze that much in detail, but in spite of that, the man did an AMAZING job!
My only critisim here is the Bolter's sound effects weren't loud enough, it didn't feel as powerful and as deadly as it should be.
Hard to convey a sense of gravity to actions. Astartes does it well.
I will tell my kids that this was an actual original trailer to Starcraft 2
and now memes aside This video is some top tier Astartes level of quality piece of art and I love every second of it.
This is literally the Warhammer version of the Starcraft 2 intro.... I love it.
As opposed to figuratively being the Warhammer version of StarCraft 2 intro. Very different when it's literal.
All about the pack's generator coming online, innit :-D
@Абдульзефир I'm pretty sure the teaser trailer for vanilla starcraft 2 came before Ironman, because when I saw Ironman in the theater my first reaction was that they completely ripped the entire scene right out of Starcraft and I was annoyed at the plagiarism and lack of originality.
@Абдульзефир ironman animation has this kind of suit up scene?
Well I learn something new everyday I guess
@Абдульзефир the subject in question is not if animated Ironman series were released before SC2, but exactly this armor gearing animation, which first came in in SC2 trailer, not Ironman animated series.
I wouldn’t want to be in 40k but if I did this is where I’d want to be, with the raptors
You wouldn't want to be a weird servitor thingy hovering over the ground with 6 arms and a fleshy head?
@@JahRasta01 I’d prob still be a servitor only just for the raptors lmao 😂
I'm always surprised to see professional quality animations like this on youtube. Hats off to you.
Warhammer 40k only seems to grow as a community. Projects like this, and Astartes, could be the precursors of a new staple of film entertainment going into the future.
My body is ready...
One can only hope that Cinema studios understand what untapped potential there is from the Warhammer Universe.
Unfortunately Games Workshop will stifle the creative juices from flowing in a positive direction.
Get Death Of Hope, Astartes and this guy to do a movie together GW.
I would like to live in parallel universe where this is reality.
@@atan8086 Just one warp jump away!
Don't forget Richard Boylan.
I can definitely see the Raptors doing this as they are the more pragmatic of the Space Marine chapters.

"Hell, it's about time."
Starcraft is really silly once you realize they literally stole everything from 40k
@@MeliorIlle but it is a different take at least. Warhammer is cooler, but cmon, early 2000 rts'? dont blame em
@@MeliorIlle And now this guy is stealing back.. you do realise that I hope? Lol! Nice work though.. really nice!
@@Superknullisch Wut
@@MeliorIlle on the long war podcast they had chris metzen on since he plays warhammer. They asked if Starcraft was supposed to be a 40k game. He didn't give a direct answer but implied there were 40k fans in the office and they might have taken inspiration from 40k. Essentially confirming they copied it in a way.
Deleted scene:
The space marine: "Hell, It's about time"
I love how futuristic and archaic it looks
Thus, is the Grim Dark future.
This was really well done, I love the way the receptors activated to receive the shoulder pad, also the animations showing him in his armour fighting must have taken hours but gave gravity to it's strength and the dangers that the Astartes face. Awesome
