If this becomes an army, I can only imagine how the enemy would witness hundreds of droppods falling all at once over their heads with Stratagems dropping weapons, turrets, mechs, and orbital/aerial strikes.
Hundreds of drop pods - isn't that just good ol' space marines? XD They do plenty of turret drops, mechs, orbital bombardments and everything else too. For the Emprah and Liber-Tea!
As much as I love seeing pro-level painters and kitbashers, it’s very refreshing seeing someone with a more achievable skill level, it shows me that I could totally do this stuff
@@DumbRobotStuff Please keep at it! I've subbed for this very reason - you're not doing insane shit with a million different tools, just getting really great results using techniques that are accessible to most people! Cheers :)
Id pay to watch 10 hell divers with their actual kits and own data sheets fight a 500 points tyrannid game. Because in lore, 50 helldivers alone took Cyberstan. Can you imagine what they’d do in 40K? This is 1/5th of a planetary invasion force.
I built 38 helldivers but have no capes, no railguns, no atte, they have their hoses, in fact they are straight from the box. Well done have some democracy 👏
Okay these look fantastic, but if you want Helldivers gameplay in kill team you should probably find a way to run them as Veteran Guardsmen instead of Kasrkin. Get that heavy artillery support.
@@DumbRobotStuff They really are the best for Helldivers in KT, the Spotter can call in mortar strikes, their ancillary options have air support, and their gunners have weaponry that match Helldivers as well: flamethrower, grenade launcher, plasma (which I think matches the railgun pretty well) and a melta. Really the only thing is that the melee operatives don't match Helldivers, but I can totally imagine a powersword or chainsword in that universe as well.
Dude that's a gorgeous kitbash! The recoilless dupe and especially that backpack feel straight out of the Helldiver universe. I keep wanting arrowhead to license with lego to make super destroyers because my desire to own more is pretty high.
Tau Commander: "Look! The Imperium's Space Marines are coming! Look so much drop pods are commig for us! Guardsman bleeding in the ground: "That's... That's the thing... Xeno scum. Those ain't the Angels of Death. The pods are too... Smal." Tau: "Then who are they, human?" Guardsman: "... Reinforcements."
Real nice job on this kitbash. It seems like there's a lot of options if you wanted to make it a full army, you can use the SEAF guys for regular guardsmen, any of the Patriot walkers for Sentinels, the leaked APC as a Chimera, you could use any of the buddy system weapons for a heavy weapons teams, and you've got 2 different fliers. It might not make a good list, but you would at least have some variety.
3 times, this is the third time I’ve watched this video in the past couple weeks. I can confidently say that this is one of the best 40K building/painting videos ever made! Love your stuff man, it’s awesome to watch and super inspiring for more creative approaches to the hobby. Keep up the amazing work!
Amazing work, im going to try something similar with the capes in the future, i hope you get the recognition you deserve and can't wait to see future builds
This is so damn good that this became the nail in the coffin for my 30 Kasrkin and 3 Baneblade Army. They are gonna be Helldivers theme! This truly inspired me mate ❤️ Amazing job and i hope you are ok with me lending your awesome ideas in this video ❤️
Not played the game yet but these look dope! Great work man :D Nice to see that these videos are doing well despite the low sub count, hopefully that changes soon to 'w'
very nice. on printables someone has the platform from the drop pod as coaster, scaled down, that would make a fun base option or at least terrain parts.
I saw your post of this on tiktok! The Guard Dog is still my favorite; using Space Marine backpacks for the thrusters is a stroke of genius. Hats off, sir.
These look amazing. Colour scheme is very enticing, as opposed to the candy colours of regular space marines which make them look like a united colours of Benetton catalogue
Ohh I saw this set in reddit and thought wow what I'd do to get one, fine work dude! If you ever decide to make an army for them please do show us, this was a treat to watch through, amazing work!
These are great! I think I saw the reddit post and i’m gonna say that this has inspired me to paint mine as helldivers too. Above and beyond though for the conversions! Great work
Add a smoking hell bomb about to explode and its 100% like Helldivers 😄 Love these guys so much, you really captured the helldivers aesthetic, awesome job!
Great job! If you want to try something finicky, you might be able to place two tiny strips of tape as a mask on the helmets, and then paint the stripes.
just liberated malevelon creek with another rando. we completed our objective, but got pinned against the detector tower we were trying to clear out. great watching this afterwards
This is incredibly cool! And they still look W40k. I did play the first Helldivers before the second, it was like Magicka in space and infinite. Then when I heard about the second I was exstatic for it! So glad it became a hit! Though I still like the first one a bit more D:
This looks incredible, but the most helpful bit for me was actually the advice for the yellow on black paint scheme. I paint Battletech minis, and I'm planning to put together a list that's painted with a paint scheme similar to the Helldiver look you went with here. On my test mini, though, it looked like a mess and wasn't sure how to make it look right. The insights you've given here should hopefully make my pain a little easier, thank you ^^
Yeah, painting yellow isn't usually easy, especially over black, but they yellow paint I used(averland sunset) has good coverage, and I stuck with the old reliable multiple thin coats, hope it helps
Slapping the magnet under the capes is super smart, and im also surprised how good the Tau railrifle barrel fits a las/hellgun. Simple but super effective conversion work, while im not a fan of the recent mono-pose model kits, their detailing is just amazing.
I cheered so much when you picked Malevelon for the basing. Great project my dude, I am currently in the process of painting 2000 pts of unending swarm in hive fleet hydra's color scheme, you video is a good break from that. Also happens to be a huge Helldiver's fan.
Great job! One small thing I would have done differently tho would have been to cut away the gasmask bit and scap the helmet of the skull to have it match a bit more with the helldiver design.Hell thgat's the kind of thing that is probably worth 3D printing tbh.
tip with yellow: if you put white or a very bright grey under where you wanna put the yellow, even if the white/grey coverage isn't that great the yellow you put on top of it will still look fantastic. no need to put multiple layers of yellow on to get a desired result.

Doing all black is hard to look good, and then doing yellow over black is hard & annoying. I wouldn't try this for sure lol.
what an impressive team of helldivers, i'm sure their deployment to The Creek and beyond will go perfectly well!
For the decals it must have been VERY convenient that the Helldivers iconography is seemingly derived directly from Astra Militarium iconography.
They are quite similar, but it makes sense, skulls always make for cool iconography

Not sure how the new FRV would fit in at all but it’s got an HMG/heavy stubber mounted on it so…
if the imperium of man had a sense of humor, it could totally be helldivers.
The days of federation?
The humor is not in either one of the universes themselves, but from the absurdity of it that the viewer understands.
I would honestly love to see more divers or even a team of automatons seeing how many of the units could be recreated
