Painting Warhammer 40k Starter Sets like it's 1994. Using the classic Games Workshop paints, 90's Ultramarines and Orks get a retro paintjob. Nostalgia hits hard - using an Airbrush, contrast paints, Geek Gaming Basing material, I set the challenge to paint this entire box. Can it be done and still be fun?

In the grim dark future there are only bright colors and red shoes.
It's how I always thought it'd be haha
Insane to think that my hand more than likely touched a few of these models when I worked in the factory that produced these things in my hometown back in the early to mid 90s, I was responsible for mixing the polymers, and most of GW stuff was high impact polystyrene, or HIPS for short, with a 25kg bag needing 500 grams of dove grey masterbatch for the colour, as well as lubricant powder to allow the moulds to fall out of the tooling properly, funny thing is, by then I had grown out of Warhammer and citadel minis, but we made 1000s of these every week, as well as the entire, albeit small range of plastic minis and vehicles!
Ha, no way!? That'll have kept you busy! Who knew it'd grow into what it is today. :)
Wow! The little 12 year old lad that still resides within the 45 year old husk was so joyful watching this. This was my original edition and those paint pots, man. I miss those! The orks had amazing facial features back then. Such a lovely nostalgic video and I welcome more like it. Great Work Oliver (and Josef!)
I can't believe this is rare now. I had a couple myself, it was sold in Argos and I was given yet another 1 by a younger kid down the street as he loved my GW stuff but he hated having to paint them. I sold almost everything 20 years ago. That was just before GW went worldwide and prices went up.
Great work! I feel so related to this, three years ago I finished painting all the models from this starter set. As a 43 year old who suffers from nostalgia fever, seeing someone else tackling the same painting project just made my day. So good you had your brother with you to share all those memories.
This is awesome, I’m loving these trips down memory lane. Brilliant work, chaps. Also space wolves would be great😂
Bjorn needs paint to wage war!
Fantastic. One detail I'd make is paint the soles of the Orc boots. It's a thick line and would help stop the boot being a monocolour blob. Black is an obvious safe choice, but metallic would have impact.
Really cool having your brother there, reminds me of the painting and gaming my bro and I did when we were little!
It's so cool, right! We are getting older, but hobby keeps us hanging out. 😀
My brother was a music nerd, not a gaming nerd so we weren't really interested in each other's stuff.
Except for model railroading anyway.
@brionl4741 same. oh how many times I asked him to play a game with with my beatifully painted dark elves vs empire on my full home made hobby board. But alas he had no interest
I remember saving up all my paper boy money for this box! Those were the days. If only i could press rewind.
I know..
I still have my 2nd edition box set from when I was 10 years old
That was also the same time I started collecting and painting. So many good memories.
Awesome job on your minis.
2nd Edition was my first box set, for Christmas 1994. I still have not painted all of the Gretchin. I have been going through all those old models and getting them ready to finally see some paint and man, there's a lot of Gretchin! (almost double the normal amount as my uncle was a binman at one time and rescued a 2nd Edition box from the Council dump, the models, books, pointy sticks, everything!!)
Red shoes for Orkz is perfect -- makes 'em leg it fastah!
How did I not make this connection. "Goez fasta bootz"
Dude, they really turned out well. Having been with you a few evenings, painting away it's now great to see the finished results on the retro terrain. 100% on the nostalgia scale. Even as as a Ultramarine painter the ORKs steal the show. They really pop. I know that you have the Wolves Codex as well, so no excuse, "For Russ and the Allfather!!"
This is an awesome spark of joy! Back in the days, I never managed to paint more than a space marines dark angel squad from this box. Nearly 30 years later, I still stick to the firsts. Please continue this serie, and I'll be very happy to see those terminators finished (I then jump to my 2nd Ed. Deatwing dudes that I started last week) keep up man
This is great! I remember my first time in my local hobby shop. This was the box set on offer and I went with a box of WH Fantasy High Elves. Wish I had kept pics of the paintjobs now to see how far I've come. Seeing some space wolves would be awesome, they're my current army collection and by far my largest so it'd be awesome to see where they came from. Also my first army were White Scars, but less said about that the better haha
That s my youth too. I have dark Future, advanced heroquest, advanced space crusade, 1st space hulk, blood bowl 2nd ed and warhammer 93.
5:26 Love how your brother has head wings! 😅
Haha, I hadn't noticed!
Never heard of these when i was growing up, 30 years ago I had left college to begin my working life. I only found about warhammer 4 years ago in my 50's due to taking up kit building to help deal with depression and self harming.
Oh man the Nostalgia hit of seeing this 2nd Ed boxset brings me right back! Thank you!
OH MY..... This was the first box I ever got for Christmas when I was 9 (42 now), but i've just gone straight back to that day.... LOVE IT
It's weird seeing this edition again because that was the last and first 40k edition i ever played when i was about 15 or 16. I switched to warhammer fantasy after that and bloodbowl. I remember me and a friend both got this 40k boxset for christmas and i took my box to his house and gave him all my marines and he gave me all his gretchen and orks so we both had a decent sized army. Good times. The best.
I still have miniatures to paint of the set^^
Man the nostalgia from watching this was immense. 2nd Ed. was my introduction to 40K, pretty sure I still have my original Space Wolves army up in the attic somewhere, including the old models of Ragnar, Ulrik, Njal, and Bjorn. Think I'll be making my way up there this weekend 🙂
Oh man, those models are classic! I prefer the poses on the newer ones, but something about the Vitruvian Man pose of the older models (especially Njal) just brings back so many memories. My dad's step-brother got me into WH40K (he had this same boxed set, and collected Space Wolves), and it was the highlight of traveling interstate to see him.
In 93 a friend and I shoveled snow in order to buy that box from the bookstore. Good times
it would be cool to see the process to make a custom paper banner to go on that ultra marine commander!
Great to see this! Back to where it all started for me as well. I just sold all my WH 40K stuff, mostly Orks, and I still had all the transfers! (Although they might have come from the Wartrukk box.)
Loved this, and they look great! I definitely only painted the marines from my set back in the day, the Orks and Grots definitely remained grey.
I think we were the same. There were too many models to bother painting, especially when I had beautiful Eldar models to paint. It feels great to have these done!
These look great. Reminds me of that pewter OG space marine squad with missile launcher. Remember picking it up on a USA road trip, opening it in the car and being hugely disappointed that assembly was required! I wanted to play with them right away! 😮
Man, those models bring me back. Still have all my orcs from that box!
What a beautiful trip down memory lane! Awesome seeing mini’s from our youth enjoyed!
Glad you enjoyed it
The older models are just so very, very cool - especially coupled with a goblin green base! Eldar was my first army too and I remember being blown away when some of the guardians came with metal weapons instead of the plastic ones! 😂 That set has turned out really well, lovely work chaps!
I find it hilarious how a simple starter box back in the day would get you basically 70+ models for two separate armies to play as, you'd be lucky to get two tactical squads now for the same value.
This was my first set with me and my brother. I was around 9 yo when I got it. The nostalgia... Those paints were also brutal. Still have pieces left. Really wish I could have found the ork dread.
Those Orks look really cool even with Santa’s red boots 😂😂😂
Ho ho ho!
10:40 "Oh c'mon, man, goblin green isn't from 30 years ago, get your bloody maths right... it's... erm, ten, plus, one and three, carry the four... oh no. Oh no no no. Oh sweet Jesus... But that means I'm...."
Yes, my friend.. that's right, we are .. old.
Thank you , Broadsword .
In the late 80's I went to a wargame group , every sunday , One day a bunch of "Kids" got all hept up about this new game , You remind me of them , you could have been one of them ,
Haaa , what a wounderful thing is this "Memory " 😊
🐺 Loupis Canis .
I loved it! but 12:22 gave me an anxiety attack hahahah.
Haha, it did spill a bit 🤣
Great to see some old stuff
Fab video, i recently got my hands on these orkz and need to get them painted up, very useful!
Ooh, nice! They've actually ended up being my favourite models now they're finished. Get your paint on. 🎨
I’m not sure that the sawdust flock is out of place… I definitely used this on this exact boxed set… although they should really be Blood Angels! Didn’t use sand until 5th Ed I think, with heretical brown edges!
Love the retro style! I would love to see more retro ork goodness
Never watched a citadel miniatures video on RUclips but somehow this popped up randomly. I collected & painted tons of these in late 80s/early 90s and this is really nostalgic. Interesting that you comment that painting techniques have changed since then too.
Personally, I think the Orks look pretty stylish in their cherry red Doc Martens 😁
And red ones will make them run faster.
I love this. The scenery was a great touch. 2nd/3rd ed will always be where my heart lies ❤
Ah glad you liked it 😊 yeah, me too. Second and third were good times.
Right in the nostalgia! Mid way through redoing the eldar army I had in the 90s, orks are my next project.
Those transfers you used on the goffs shoulders looked great, where did they come from? Really set off the oldshool look
I'd love to see you paint those classic Spaces Wolves! Great video, I simply love how saturated those colors are. You definitely captured an Era.
Thanks so much! Yeah, I may have to do some more. I've got a full Eldar army here, a full Wolves army, and now enough models for full ultramarine and Orks. I've gone mad reliving my youth. Haha.
@@BroadswordWargaming sounds like you've got a lot of fun times ahead of you!! Would love to see progress sometimes, especially with those classics orks.
Big hit od nostalgia I got from this. Now, let's hope we'll get a little 2nd edition battle report out of this, cardboard dreadnought and everything!
Oh I really miss this boxing and I still have some of the paints that are still nice and wet in their pots 25 years later!
Awesome job. Love all these old school warhammer vids. I was late into warhammer, so all this stuff really blows me away.
It's so fun to look back at. I'm glad you're enjoying the oldies, cus I love making them!
A layer of Brown Wash on those Ork Bootz could have turned them into classic, ox-blood Doc Martin boots; just right for some 'ooligun Boyz. Of course, they would then need Blue Denim trousers and Puffer-Jacket Olive Green body armour.
This was excellent! Yes please do videos of the other 2nd edition sets you have. Would love to see those Space Wolves and Eldar. Maybe do some retro 2nd edition battles?
I love these sort of OldHammer videos, but it would be nice to see some non-Goffs once in a while 😅
I've got more orks on the way, so fear not!
I have started a similar adventure of building a 2nd ed blood angels army. I was able to get the marine half of this box for cheap. I love these models so much
Love it! Thanks for making so great, high quality content!💛
Ah, thanks. Glad you like it! 😊
This was my first spacemarines box
Thats awesome!!! That was my first big set. I love the second edition paint work more that the new styles.
Me too! It's tike consuming, but incredibly satisfying.
Im looking at my Ultramarines from my 2e starter right now. Yeah they are more like chess pieces, but man was the game fun back then.
I remember this set from when I was in year 5 at school. I can remember my mum telling me it was a waste of money jokes on her I went on to collect black templer and tau
Oh, man! This is great; a real trip down memory lane. This reminds me, as other commenters have already mentioned, of first starting out in 40K with my brother. Very cool video to show you reminiscing and bonding with your brother.
Speaking of your brother. He looks familiar. Did he play a few times on the 30K Channel?
Ah, thanks. Yeah, he did! We are all big HH players and know David from 30k channel pretty well. I played a game on there with fists, and Jo has probably been playing World Eaters. 😀
4:54
"Joe cant be with us much longer"
Damn rip Joe
He didn't paint enough gretchin, so I had to "remove" him.
You totally need to take the cardboard ork dread to an official GW tournament
I had this box loving the nostalgia
Still have my box of nostalgia, miniatures, books and all! Like many this box and heroquest were my gateway to miniature gaming.
Yeah. Floorhammer was awesome. It was my brother that introduced me to Rogue Trader. A few decades later, my wife found a near complete 2e set. Really, I'm just missing a few tokens and gretchen. There's only one boy partially painted and even the deff dredd has it's base still. I've had it for a long while now and have been reluctant to build it up and paint it until I can get the gretchen, but I think I'll dive in now that I saw how much fun you had with your set.
Wow you really nailed that one. That is spot on 90'shammer.
Thank you!
These look awesome! So much nostalgia!
Thanks! 😀
Fingers crossed they at least made silicon molds of these things.
So many happy memories right there!! Good to see
Would be nice to be able to get like.. 1500 points of every army from 2nd edition using the old models, with a slightly updated version of 2nd edition rules to play as that was more streamlined and less "90 degree arc line of sight" to selectively shoot at targets or whatnot. But still have basically the same 2nd edition army lists.
Painting the OG box. Nice job!
You know you don't *have* to paint the shoulder pad trim yellow, right? That's just the color for the 3rd(?I think) company. Other companies have other colors.
Anyway, my marines are all from my own chapter, Delta Vindicators. Basically Ultramarines in desert camo instead of blue. I've still got 4 or 5 squads of the RTB-01 guys around, including 1 or 2 with the metal jump packs, and matching OG Rhino, Predator and flying broomstick land speeder.
I still have the original Epic Space Marine box set along with a huge Space Marine army, titans and a load of die cast Imperial superheavy tanks. I sold my original Necromunda on eBay a few years back and akso the original Space Hulk woth both expansions as I had no time to play them nor anyone to play with. Perhaps it's time to find a new home for all the Epic minis too 🤔
What color should space socks be? Important considerations for the grimdark future.
It is something to think about..
Seeing those Gretchins took me back! Great video mate
Thanks so much 😀 loved painting the old lads.
Yes! More old hammer please.
Keep those eyes peeled! :)
Nice video.
And I definitely want to see you tackle old school Space Wolves.
Its weird to realise that the Orkz used to be SHORTER than the Marines. I didnt start till the Tau first came out so i never got to see those in person initially (except the rare few left overs at my gaming club) so seeing them in grey and then finally painted is a treat in itself. Its a heartwarming project, really.
Tha Halcyon days of 40k. Glorious. 👍👍
The best!
I have been using microset|sol since my days of 1:35 armor, they really help! Have you tried to cut the transfers into quadrants? I dont' cut all the way and thats how i can sit my transfer flush to the shoulderpads
That's good adivce! I normally cut into the tops of something circular (like Imperial fists transfers), just to help them sit a little better. :)
Very nice work but cranck up the contrast and vibrancy without fear! That bit of old man chriticism doesn't take away the amazing paintwork, definitively in the right 90's 'Eavy Metal style.
93 set was fantastic. My first set.
Mine too!
And this is when the full impact of 30 years in the hobby has just hit me..... I split that box with classmates.
Looks great and has drawn me down Nostalgia Lane, will be doing my Eldar in the Classic 90s Method. But AHHHHH?!? why gun barrels not drilled?!?
I NEVER drill the barrels. I'm a monster.
HERETIC! Report to your local Inquisitorial Station, First Floor, room 404, and sit in the BLUE chair. An agent will attend to you for servitor processing.
Loved this video Ollie. I'll watch anything you do
Ah, thanks so much! ☺️
Don’t forget to paint the cardboard Ork Dreadnought
"Now contains Pre painted miniatures!"
Love the video and wished i got into painting earlier, since i just got started on some small figures ( chaos space marines i got a question ) why do you paint the shoulders of the marines whitem and then paint gold over it after ?
Hey! It's never too late to get started 😀
I painted them white as it's a good. Basecoat for the yellow. Generally, yellow has pretty poor coverage, so it just looks green over most colours. Rather than doing ALOT of yellow layers, it can be easier to start with an off-white and build up from there.
Great vid and fantastic paint job.
You know what, I still have not finished painting my one from back then...paints are probably a little solid now!
I was never that good at painting.
Cool video! Your standard bearer marine needs a standard.
He does! I've been playing with a few ways to do it, just not found a result im happy with yet .
excellent video! it was where I began to. thank you for taking me to this trip down memory lane! keep up the great videos and content.
This is the content I'm on RUclips for! 2nd edition is the best edition... especially for Space Orks
It's so weird to think I once owned this box, yet in the 90's I never had a full army, not even 1000 points, because I was a kid and kept on changing my mind. Almost got close with Dark Eldar, then stopped with anything model related until the past few years in my mid thirties and now I'm finally getting close to having an actual painted army
I would be interested in classic eldar please. Throw me back to the 90's.
Another brilliant trip down memory lane. It would be great to see the Space wolves painted up as they were my first Army, but opening pristine boxes maybe a step too far.
They're looking absolutely fantastic, great work!
This is it !!! This is the one !!! This is the set which I skipped (like an idiot ) because I was more in to Fantasy than 40k at that point. I think they had probabably just ret-coned the Squats in 40K so falling back on fantasy was my big solution. I'm unlikely to ever come across a 90% complete 2nd Edition boxed set . I'm not that lucky and I'm unlikey to ever have the time or money to afford a proper antique like this and ebay prices or whatever you would charge for a aecond hand set is going to be far outside my price range. I live in hope though. 😊🙄
what washes did you use on the orks? I just purchased 20 gretchen off eBay recently myself.
Really cool.
get the Ghazghkull of this era i want to see how to paint him to golden deamon standard of this era
I do have one.. he is waiting!
@@BroadswordWargaminggreat I can't wait to see what you can do with him
