Interesting that this is more “Models and Memories” than the actual “Models and Memories” episodes! Love seeing these cool models, would love to see you kitbash some oldhammer like that.
OMG I am actually an author of this Cultist Chan mini I made for some guy several years ago. It was a paid job and I didn't even know the back story of the character. I'm sorry that the printing quality of your piece turned out not good enough though.
"It's good that 1d4chan is gone now" A bigger betrayal than the Horus Heresy. Also it still exists and gets updated but mostly on the articles, no comment on the site itself.
1d4chan would be an exceptional resource if it wasn't filled with slurs, i know its central to the 4chan part of the title but its probably the key reason why it's faded into obscurity.
Hearing you gush about 1d4chan really does bring me back to the peak of my fun in the hobby between 2010-2015. What a time. In hindsight it was probably a trash time, but I hold it dearly
I remember writing a small paragraph in the rule recap of the 7th Edition CSM codex. Essentially explaining that you could turn a Defiler into a character, and then give a relic to said Defiler. Someone else went into the files and complemented my breakdown with the mention : "It's dumb but it works. Good job anon."
This takes me back to a time where the hobby felt so different to me than it does now. Maybe it’s just nostalgia making me biased, but I feel like back in the day minis were way more out there and free form in their designs and that made them awesome in my opinion. I feel like there were a lot more smaller miniature companies back then too. I remember spending countless hours on my family’s gateway computer searching up random blogs and forums and what not to find cool miniatures and miniature companies and the like, riding my bike all over town looking for any sort of nerd shop I could find to see if they happened to have any cool miniatures in stock that I haven’t heard of or seen before. I unfortunately lost a large chunk of my collection years ago but I’ve still got a good handful of weird and OOP minis laying around from all sorts of obscure companies. Anybody remember Spine Spur?
I think it is the difference between CAD and good old hand sculpts. Now there is a modern creative design process with many experts and artists involved. I love modern GW but it does lack that rough and ready art feel.
@@SpoonyBard88 there very well could be more small companies now than there were when I was really into the hobby. As far as quality though I feel like that really depends. I still have some really high quality plastic and pewter miniatures from back in the day, and I’ve seen and own what I would consider good as well as bad quality minis that have been produced within the last few years. I won’t argue that it is much easier to produce much higher quality miniatures fairly easily now than it was back in the day, however I wouldn’t say that minis across the board are all higher quality nowadays. Im also not saying that all old school minis are high quality by any means. I do have a personal preference for the style of most older minis though.
@@emchamberlain I would agree with that. Personally I think that a lot of older mini lines from back in the day kind of have that DIY almost punk ethos feel to them. I don’t know if that makes sense or not but I definitely resonate with that more than a lot of more modern stuff. I do both 3D modeling and hand sculpting and I do enjoy both, there’s just something I find special about that older hand sculpted style.
My cool things in my collection are an Ork Tinboy (Eldar version), original Genestealer Patriarch with Magus and Throne, and a surprising number of exclusive minis that somehow ended up in my hands like Eisenhorn, Umbra-6, that Catachan woman, etc. My old collection though... I had some real treasures in there. Stuff like that rogue trader inquisitor, every last animal companion from Warhammer fantasy (except the shaggy dog and snail), some really weird ministorim guys (like one that was 3 times taller than a 2nd edition marine) most of the Inquisitors and henchmen from 3.5 and a bunch of old FW stuff.
Really cool to see how far the quality and technology have come along in a relatively short time, looking at the chaplain on bike with the old and new model makes me think of how PS1 games look in my mind now compared to how they actually looked.
I still run 1 squad of 1st Edition Terminators that I’ve played for 30+ years. Original paint job, new bases as the size changed over the decades. Always gets a “Wtf are those” reaction.
12:05 I saw that at my FLGS one time, but it was already gone next day when I went to actually buy it. Found a pretty cool STL of an Umber Hulk (the DnD monster the Ambull *definitely* is not) as a consolation prize... but I don't have any sort of 3d printer.
Shapeways is my go to for bits to customize my miniatures. Etsy is great for full miniatures or larger bits, but if you need a bunch of shoulder badges in a short amount of time, they are the best especially here in the US.
In the mid 90’s as I was in my teenager Goth phase, I bought a Skeleton Wraith, Ltd ed Legion of the Damned Sergeant Centurius and head of the Goths, 2nd edition Ghazghkull. All sat in my pile of shame unpainted as I was too scared I wouldn’t do the justice! Until 2022 when you inspired me to finally give them a go! The wraith and Centurius are done using your Black Templar tips for the black clothing and Ghazghkull is my current WIP. Thank you, I love them!
5th edition 40k was peak 40k. Not for the ruleset but for the community and fluff; before gw tightened their iron fist around the ip and strangled the life out of it. Thanks for sharing, Jay!
1d4 chan is still around sometimes it gets updated with new fan fics but it's not often, I actually based my army on that story you were talking about! Love and Kreig!
When the inquisitor was sold, you could buy the arms seperately via mail order via thier bitz service. The old catalogues had part numbers on them. Mine has the one of the combi weapons and the powerfist with digilasers.
I have never heard of cultist chan but now I really want a cultist chan, and now I'm going to do a digital paint of her (plus it will give me an opportunity to draw something that isn't a commission and/or rule 34 of a random character)
Looks like Ursala from the Little Mermaid got a badass update 😂 When I first started playing 40k I was gifted a bunch of those old 2nd/3rd edition Terminators along with like a whole armies worth of those old plastic 3 part push fit space marines. The ones that were just bodies, bolters and flamers with the hands attached to them, as well as a few missile launchers and backpacks, as well as a couple Sargents with bolt pistols and chainswords. Also down the road quite some years later I picked up 3 or 4 of the old Rhinos and a Landraider. These were some of the first miniatures that I painted and still have to this day. I remember seeing pictures of the Ultra Marines and wanted a paint scheme similar but with my own twist so I decided that these Marines were part of the original Terrains and their colors would be red, white and blue with gold and silver accents lol. I also have a literal shed ton of the old push fit Orks, single sculpt Gretchen, at least 20 Ork bikes, many scratch built Killakans, Deffdreads, at least 3 kitbashed boom wagons, a couple scratch built trikes,(made from the bikes) and many, many trucks. And the pride of my oldhammer Orks is the original tiny Gaz which fit on the 25mm slotted base 🤘 I have many more miniatures in my collection but I think these are my favorites!!!
@@Matt-md5yt I used to hang out at the actual club in Manchester NH. "Best place to play east of the Mississippi in the US". I miss those days... 25 fully terrained 4x8 tables, the full GW range of models and paints (and you could use all the paints for $5 a day or $20 a month!), Monthly events and megabattles, the bitz bus would stop in, painting contests every Saturday, BFG/Inquisitor/Gorkamorka racing/Dreadnaught Arena Combat tables. The Mordheim table was a work of art. Unfortunately the owners sold it to a wonderful guy who had to sell it due to health reasons. He sold it to one of the regulars who was sort of outside the main group. He changed the name and location (to an area in the center of the city with no parking, space for 6 tables in 2 rooms and NO VENTILATION?!). Then the apartment upstairs flooded and the ceiling collapsed destroying the store, tables, any uncovered books and magazines (dating back to early white dwarfs and first edition printings of tons of rule books). There hasn't been a place like it in the north east since.
Side note: the second owner was Juan Rios who is had been pictured, with Frank McCann, in the little rogue trader pamphlets in white dwarf for years. They had the largest armies out of all of us with Juan owning an entire marine chapter and Frank with more Tyranids than could fit on a 4x8. I learned to paint bone from Jeff Brooks (who went to work at GW HQ in Virginia... He still owes me a painted Cullexus Assassin I gave him to paint as payment for designing his Dreadnaught banners). I learned to paint rust and weathering from Robin Lebel (Bronze Demon winner with his Sauron entry back in the day). I learned how to be a good sportsman from Raef Granger who had an article published in white dwarfs "A Word in your Ear" by Paul Sawyer. So many wonderful memories. That place was the epitome of what a gaming club should be.
4:30 Love and Krieg is a good story It's literally one of those romance slice of life comady anime from the mid 2000's but later people also just actually transform it into 40k
Of my favorite models I have painted and kept, Reaper’s 25th anniversary sculpt of Tara The Silent is in my top five. Very proud of that one. I also have a Chibi version of Samus Aran in her zero suit when I bought a set of minis from Ignition Core Games (also top five). Another I need to paint is a very, very rare sculpt of the Griffin from Battletech, back when it was called Battledroids.
I have more weird than regular stuff to be honest. I think I have more random stuff from a manner of small companies, many of which are no longer around, than regular GW / Citadel stuff. :P
7:06 The book is from the mounted Sigmar priest Luthor Huss, 6. Oldhammer Edition around 2000. I used it for my Dark Angels back in the days several times. And I remember the energy sword arm ad it was just yesterday. Fun fact: The owner of this model added two bitz from not so fond of another space marine chapters. In your face, space doggos.
Lol I used that Cultist Chan mini's head for a chaos sorceress of mine because it's the only female head I could find with a wide grin with sharp teeth
my beef with mordern models is looking at your inquisitor and saying "ah, Jes Goodwin model" but now they don't credit by name. Same with the art. We used to know all the artists... now?
@8:20 you asked what GW would make your kit bash Inquisitior look like today… the answer to that would be Grand Master Voldus. Because that was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw it…
The original Ambull was lead allow, I never saw it released in the new (at the time) pewter and had to find mine in an abandoned minis bin in a hobby store I had stumbled across in my travels. I no longer have it (like almost all of my original stuff.)
@eonsofbattle Blast from a past seeing Cultist chan. Most people just pretend they never saw 1d4chan, you're the first painter Ive seen that know only referenced it, but completely understood it.
I just recently discovered Shapeways. Ordered a set of heads from them. I was surprised to see them as transparent, as opposed to the solid, grey color of plastic and resin.
One of my models that holds a bit of importance to me is a single necron warrior from the recruit edition, me and my friends were doing our first game, me the space marines and him the necrons, near the end it was melee cause we were on a tiny table and my lieutenant was decimating his warriors but one kept making its reanimation rolls and kept surviving, it managed to survive 2 consecutive turns of melee before it finally died from a swarm of assault intercessors, i painted silver cockroach wings on its back to make sure I remember it
My favourite weird oddities are my urban achievers minis (based quite heavily off the big lebowski) the mold lines are atrocious and the sculpt quality is quite poor compared with bigger brands (and to be honest, a lot of small brands too) but there's so much flavour to them I couldn't send them back 🤣 oh! And about 20 metal gretchin, which I've collected and have no idea what to do with, ideas welcome! 😁
GW Ambull is the DnD Umberhulk in terms of style, but I still have to say that I have yet to witness an Umberhulk model that looks better than the newest Blackstone Fortress Ambull. The only good alternative I saw was the Umberhulk from Artisan Guild. But overall they do make some very cool stuff.
I'm a firm believer that if you can, try to style your models in a way that makes them yours even if it's something small like taking the helmet of a space marine and adding it to a rubble pile for or taking a chaos chain sword cause let's be honest they look cooler than the astartes chain sword and glueing it to your regular marine and come up with an awesome backstory for that, anything you can do to make an army feel like yours.
My personal models I have in my collection are based off an old cartoon me and my family still love. It’s Thundar the Barbarian and his companions Ukla the Mok and Princess Arielle
The weird skull thing on the Chaplain vespa is a "Suicide Shifter". Its an old / uncommon thing on motorcycles and called such because you have to let go of one of the handlebars to change gears. Not sure how he changes gears while steering and holding his crozius.
For some reason I have still unpainted Sean Of The Dead pewter minis. Sean and Zombie Sean. I also own a pewter Spartan from 300 and a little girl with a plush bunny holding a gun behind her back. Don't even remember where that one is from.
I’m spacing on the name right now but I know what you’re talking about, they’re all from the same company originally. I think maybe they sold some of their molds off to other small companies at some point because ive seen a few of their old sculpts being sold by different companies. I could be wrong though. I need to figure out the company now, they had some solid stuff back in the day
@@michaelderner1995 I am also pretty sure they were all from the same small company but I bought them more than 10 years ago so I really can't remember.
@@mrheisenberg83 I like vaguely remember their website having like a blue and yellow (maybe green?) logo. Pretty sure it was like a husband and wife that ran it out of their garage or something along those lines
I have the 2nd edition Logan Grimnar terminator but I cut his power axe off for some reason that I can't remember. I loved space wolves back in the '90s as they were the only space marines that had any real individuality back then in terms of how the majority of them looked without paint. My favourite thing about the old minis is how easy they were to assemble, putting them together was far more self-explanatory if I was a kid now the number of steps to building minis would drive me crazy. All of my minis from childhood are gone now as I gave them away as I got older, but I had so many that I wish I still had. I do have almost every old metal and plastic blood bowl team and the old dungeon bowl teams but I haven't got around to painting them all. Obviously, my squid mage is one of my favourite minis too, I can just imagine Nick at the time grumbling like feck about having to post it to the U.K lol
My first Minnies were warhammer fantasy Chaos Barbarians (which they still sell and are terrible by todays standards.) and the Aspiring Khorne Champion on the Skull Mount raising his massive axe. But eventhough I eventually dropped the game and the hobby when I grew out of my teens, I still played DnD and used these lovely barbarians as Minions and occasionly the champion as a PC. Now I play Kill Team only so I still dont have a place on the table top for them unfortunately, but maybe I can get a new kit of old barbs and bash them with the blooded KT kit? :D
a friend of mine used to cosplay chaos chan and did youtube content in character as cultist chan until she got sick of being bullied for cosplaying it by various people who claimed they created the character
Cultist Chan is a real blast from the past! Honestly an updated 3D print of her might be a fun project to see

I think it is the difference between CAD and good old hand sculpts. Now there is a modern creative design process with many experts and artists involved. I love modern GW but it does lack that rough and ready art feel.
I would guess there are way more small mini companies now than fifteen years ago, and the quality is much better.

GW Ambull is the DnD Umberhulk in terms of style, but I still have to say that I have yet to witness an Umberhulk model that looks better than the newest Blackstone Fortress Ambull.
The only good alternative I saw was the Umberhulk from Artisan Guild. But overall they do make some very cool stuff.
Ok... Now I'm going to buy that Cultist-Chan mini
R.I.P 1D4CHAN . you were hilarious.
I'm a firm believer that if you can, try to style your models in a way that makes them yours even if it's something small like taking the helmet of a space marine and adding it to a rubble pile for or taking a chaos chain sword cause let's be honest they look cooler than the astartes chain sword and glueing it to your regular marine and come up with an awesome backstory for that, anything you can do to make an army feel like yours.
you weren't kidding when you said you were going to start with the worst one
I had an 8e Scions list with only Star Ship Troopers Konflikt 47, dust 47 and World War Toons Tanks
1d4chan is still around
I can see cultist Chan toes... AND I LOVE IT
man... 1d4chan and /tg/... that was so long ago it's crazy. The first gen or warhammer memes, play guides, silly lore, uh... other stuff.
My personal models I have in my collection are based off an old cartoon me and my family still love. It’s Thundar the Barbarian and his companions Ukla the Mok and Princess Arielle
Shapeways still exists it's where I get all my 3d printed bits for my Carcharodons.
Hweee Kaptoor eeht for Kay-oss!
The weird skull thing on the Chaplain vespa is a "Suicide Shifter". Its an old / uncommon thing on motorcycles and called such because you have to let go of one of the handlebars to change gears. Not sure how he changes gears while steering and holding his crozius.
All I can think of the skull 💀 shifter knob with the LEDs and the bad to the bone rift.
07:05 the book is from luthor huss
I made a sci fi world and kitbashed a wyrmblade kill team of all the aliens from the world including 2 naked mole rat men, my personal favorites
GW allowed us to order metal bits back in the day
I shared the memes from 1d4chan. I'd love to print that model
Yeah, I bought a couple models from Shapeways... turned me off 3D printing for years...
I love that GW umberhulk... It is so ugly it is adorable.
That is some hobby love
The Ambul model is still bad ass. I will not hear slander.
Do you perhaps have a "Johnny" model?
Hey, Hay! Odd question. You've always referred to KT:ITD as KT: Turn Down For What. Why is that?
For some reason I have still unpainted Sean Of The Dead pewter minis. Sean and Zombie Sean. I also own a pewter Spartan from 300 and a little girl with a plush bunny holding a gun behind her back. Don't even remember where that one is from.
I’m spacing on the name right now but I know what you’re talking about, they’re all from the same company originally. I think maybe they sold some of their molds off to other small companies at some point because ive seen a few of their old sculpts being sold by different companies. I could be wrong though. I need to figure out the company now, they had some solid stuff back in the day
@@michaelderner1995 I am also pretty sure they were all from the same small company but I bought them more than 10 years ago so I really can't remember.
@@mrheisenberg83 I like vaguely remember their website having like a blue and yellow (maybe green?) logo. Pretty sure it was like a husband and wife that ran it out of their garage or something along those lines
@@mrheisenberg83 armorcast or eureka minis maybe?
@@michaelderner1995 I think I might have some original packaging still left in some boxes somewhere. I will update you if I find it.
The winged bike w/ the chaplain is 1st edition.
Id say that Kit bashed model should be having the more value cause they're unique
Thanks gents!! Fantastic as always!!
Cultist Chan... nice
I have the 2nd edition Logan Grimnar terminator but I cut his power axe off for some reason that I can't remember. I loved space wolves back in the '90s as they were the only space marines that had any real individuality back then in terms of how the majority of them looked without paint. My favourite thing about the old minis is how easy they were to assemble, putting them together was far more self-explanatory if I was a kid now the number of steps to building minis would drive me crazy. All of my minis from childhood are gone now as I gave them away as I got older, but I had so many that I wish I still had. I do have almost every old metal and plastic blood bowl team and the old dungeon bowl teams but I haven't got around to painting them all. Obviously, my squid mage is one of my favourite minis too, I can just imagine Nick at the time grumbling like feck about having to post it to the U.K lol
My first Minnies were warhammer fantasy Chaos Barbarians (which they still sell and are terrible by todays standards.) and the Aspiring Khorne Champion on the Skull Mount raising his massive axe. But eventhough I eventually dropped the game and the hobby when I grew out of my teens, I still played DnD and used these lovely barbarians as Minions and occasionly the champion as a PC.
Now I play Kill Team only so I still dont have a place on the table top for them unfortunately, but maybe I can get a new kit of old barbs and bash them with the blooded KT kit? :D
I miss 1D4Chan getting regular stories and etc... now? I just go back and reread stuff.
a friend of mine used to cosplay chaos chan and did youtube content in character as cultist chan until she got sick of being bullied for cosplaying it by various people who claimed they created the character
Huh, I thought the sword arm on that Inquisitor looked like a 5th edition chaos warrior arm from WHFB.
me before watching the video. "if cultist chan isnt in it i am...oh its nr.1 ....nevermind."
I have a metal vulkan he’stan. Didn’t want to bother with failcast.
Can you still get the vine knight model? I was wanting to get it and never ordered it before and I really would like to get it
Please, notice me Abaddon senpai ! Love the weird little minis ^^
Free printing always hits different
Ngl I'd like to have a cultist chan mini for my army
god i miss old chan culture
I felt myself age years seeing the thumbnail.
