I mean... it's "only" four kits. That's pretty basic for a heavily customized kill team :D Edit: Correction, five kits. I forgot the assault intercessors xD
It is indeed but at least what's left is a fully playable force. To build this you would need to buy 2x Bladeguard Vet kits and 1x GK Paladins. The remaining items from the Strike Squads, Intercessors and Hell blasters can probably be picked up individually to keep costs down.
@@PeteTheWargamer If you’re only playing kill team that wouldn’t be a big deal. Scaling this up to 40 K though would be nuts. I hope the new Grey Knights look anything like what you just made.
I'm very glad that GW seems to have dropped the idea that all marines need to be primarisified and realized that what they really needed was some upscalling. That new GK character they've shown is great, now they need to do the strike and paladin update and we are good.
I hope we get new strike and paladins but the fact that the promo material for the new GK character model was shown alongside the first born models probably means we won't
@@weakish Yeah... sadly seems like it, which would be a really big shame since GK have basically 2 kits for their whole army (well 3 with the Dread Knight) and that could have been an easy wing for GW.
@@DerSisch So.... like the outdated Grey Knights right? Ngl, its pretty tyring to have people constantly jump on that lazy "they shouldn't do any marines now" just because they have pumped up a bunch of garbage primaris shit that nobody asked for. How exactly did that impact the Grey Knights in ANY way? Spoiler : it didn't. And before some smartass try to pull the usual "huuur you are just a space marine main", I'm not. I dont have any marine army, I'm mostly a chaos, necrons and nyd player, and that still doesn't prevent me from pointing out the honest truth : The grey knights look outdated as shit and updating their whole range would literally be just printing 2 updated kits!
I use Dark Angel Vets and Deathwing Knights respectively to create my 'grey knights' for Kill Team as Dark Angel Librarians. As long as their weapons are all Grey Knights and they're the same height and base size, it's all good.
I feel that one thing that really needs to be done when trying to convert upscalled trueborns from primaris kit is to remove the very noticeable ankle ball the primaris armors have.
actually some of the recently upscaled firstborn kits like the deathwatch veterans have similar ankle balls so it isn't unheard of for firstborn to have them.
@@jakeg-shep It's only on the MK8, an armor that was never in very large production, and even then, the ball is significantly smaller. The point is simply that people (that actually care) know and recognize astartes marks of armors, and the ankle ball is a VERY recognizable part of the primaris armor.
Amazing job as always! Would love to see you make an Eldar Kill team. Since the eldar models are quite old you could make good use of different 3rd party bits to make something really unique
@@PeteTheWargamer I have an idea! What color do you never use? Make that color their primary, then use the complementary as an accent color, and then you just need one more warm cold contrasting color to create a popping scheme. Big question. Would you do them ubber grimdark? Or an eavy metal style? I think that the shinny more plasticy armour looks more fitting for tau. Instead of chipped rusty metal underneath.
Looking amazing, as always. Only "issue" for me is the fact, that every one of them has one scabbard, regardless of whether the grey knight has none, one or even two swords. But besides this little pickiness on my behalf it's a really great conversion 👍👍👍
Tbf the scabbards on the charecters that aren't holding swords have the swords in them, but there are a couple with a sword and no scabbord. Those scabbords are so big though I don't blame him.
Your kill teams are really inspiring. I'm planning on doing an Ultramarines Tyrannic War Veterans team of xenos killer specialists, definitely inspired by your Raptors team!
I've heard a lot of people who suggested Gaunts Ghosts would make a good killteam when those models came out. I'm not suggesting you do Gaunt obviously, it just got a kit. But maybe a cool Imperial Guard Killteam. Proper commandos style. And not a standard cadian or krieg team. Maybe a more unusual regiment or a brand new custom one.
I love watching you do kitbashes, especially the kill teams. It's so inspiring. You're a primary reason that I started kitbashing a T'au Pathfinder kill team. I especially love that you treat every video like it's someone's first tutorial. It really adds a lot to the feel of the videos and means that no matter when someone finds you, they'll be sure to learn techniques that are useful.
I love these killteam videos for kitbashing a squad rather than one dude, it gives more ideas for inspiration compared to having the one model to look at
You are one of the three Triforce shards in the hobby, seriously. You bring so much to the hobby that it's ridiculous, please continue to make these small squad conversions, they are the best!
You had me worried for a minute there with the terminator vents, glad you took the step to get powerpacks on there it makes a huge difference. For me still a little terminatory but just enough to say they aren't love them. Perfect kill team, hope you do more teams like this an absolute joy to watch and very inspiring.
This is something I just love about kill team. More than ever, it's about YOUR dudes. You can customize and invest into them, each losses will be felt, each models will tell a story
The video was great, and the models look amazing ! I'd also love to see you tackle a Tau Empire Kill Team ! A mixed race team with T'au, Kroot and human would be very cool !
SoBs would be awesome, I've had an idea for them for a while now. Basically a Repentia squad but one that has been sanctioned to use regular armour and weapons in order to complete a suicide mission.
@@PeteTheWargamer WOW. IT'S HUGE. Unfortunately we can have (at the moment) only one Repentia. So only one eviscerator. But I'd like to see it none the less!!!
Super nice! I shall be using the techniques here! The BEST part is that not only is this team completely valid for Kill Team new edition, it's actually playable and STRONG.
Great video! An Alpha Legion kill team could be super cool! Having a mix of unmutated and mutated marines, and maybe even one with that "phasing out of a disguise" thing that so many people do with them!
Your channel has inspired me to make some veteran skitarii combining the vanguard with sisters and Rangers with the new plastic Krieg when they get their release. Love your videos congrats being featured on warhammer community.
I love your Kill Team builds! The amount of character and individuality in them is the reason I love and want to collect warhammer. Maybe next time some more Chaosy Kill Team?
waiting for you to have a go on all the factions now, that kill team concept is such a cool idea to personalize minis rather than having a generic army! Nice work mate!
Honestly, the chunkier proportions here kinda make these guys look more like regular Space Marines as depicted in most of the artwork. It's a neat look, I really like it!
Really hope you do one for Nightlords, I plan on making one but I lack imagination beyond using the forge world mk4 shoulder and terror squad upgrades.
Love what you do on this channel.ive watched almost all of your kitbash and conversion videos and has inspired me in my kitbashes.looking forward to seeing the rest of your Raptors killteam loadout list.keep up all great work you do mate.
I don't play Warhammer but I love watching these videos, a long time a go I tried getting into the game but found the building/art side of things far more interesting. I was kit bashing before I even knew it was a thing, I tried to make tyranids space marines, despite not knowing what I was doing and just be 11 it came out okay. I'd love to see you do a cross faction kit bash.
This has given me so much more confidence and inspiration for being a little more adventurous with my army and future builds, thank you! As requested please try out a Dark Angels Kill team or kitbash of any kind if it is possible.
These look incredible. I always liked the idea of grey knights but felt they looked a little cumbersome and clunky. You've really rectified that. Seeing the process and trial and error you go through is always really nice to see. Makes me want to make more and more kill teams. Can only request mortifactors, though I know its not the most popular faction 😁
Totally awesome Pete, I will watch you make just about any 40k faction happily, but I would love to see you dress up some Primaris Blood Angels as a kill team (but after some non astartes get a turn!).

God, I could watch you do whole Killteams forever. You do them so well.
Same, I was inspired by his raptors kill team to start a Grey knights one and now I'm super gelled that mines very similar to his
@@Providence315 I've not hobbied in a long time, but I still adore seeing these rad conversions.
I love to see a Ork Kommando from Pete
@@Providence315 I've been inspired to make a tacticool kill team based on his raptors. Don't know what chapter I'm going to go with though
Thank you! I love building them so lots more to come :D
You should do an black legion kill team based off of John Blanche’s artwork, it’d mean that you’d get to sculpt lots of fur and stuff like that!
Blanche's stuff is amazing, his chaos stuff is just so goddamn scary looking. Thanks for the suggestion!
The dead animal counter would go through the roof!
I concur! Good idea!
Fellow black legion enjoyers
That's one hilariously expensive kill team.
I mean... it's "only" four kits. That's pretty basic for a heavily customized kill team :D
Edit: Correction, five kits. I forgot the assault intercessors xD
@@Yormolch didn’t he also use a hell blaster arm?
@@VVarlock_ damn... yeah ok, this is reaching very expensive levels. But I guess one could use the rest of those boxes for other conversions

I hope they finally would not release any Space Marine for a few months and focus on outdated models
@@DerSisch So.... like the outdated Grey Knights right?

They already gave CSM the upscale treatment despite no Primaris, so it's kind of a shame they didn't roll out tall firstborn with this release.
Would love to see an Admech killteam, searching for arcotech!
100%
Do you mean archeotech?cuz I looked up arcotech and that’s a drilling company.
Ad Mech work surprisingly well for KT, lots of interesting reasons for them to be sending out small focused squads.
@@PeteTheWargamer I think it would be a cool team, but how would you make them unique And more like their specialisms?
I love the individuality you can get out of every model in a kill team and this video is so inspiring for how creative you can be with it.
That's my main goal with these videos, I just want to show people that with a few small tweaks you can easily create some unique looking forces.
I use Dark Angel Vets and Deathwing Knights respectively to create my 'grey knights' for Kill Team as Dark Angel Librarians. As long as their weapons are all Grey Knights and they're the same height and base size, it's all good.

@Midnight Coup gotta agree with this though, the kneepad rims are definitely a primaris only feature to my knowledge.

The point is simply that people (that actually care) know and recognize astartes marks of armors, and the ankle ball is a VERY recognizable part of the primaris armor.
I was hoping to tackle some upscaled first born at some point and this would definitely be the way to go with them.
Amazing job as always! Would love to see you make an Eldar Kill team. Since the eldar models are quite old you could make good use of different 3rd party bits to make something really unique
These are so cool, would really like to see you do a Genestealer Cult Kill Team next
I'm hoping to get to every faction eventually, but I think they're going to be one of the ones I tackle sooner rather than later.
I would love to see an Ork Killteam. So many fun bits there!
These look incredible! I would love to see a T'au or Genestealer Cult Killteam!
Yes tau would be super cool!
Most definitely. I've wanted to tackle Tau for a while now, I just need to settle on a particular theme for them.
@@PeteTheWargamer it could be a custom enclave or the Farsight enclaves
@@PeteTheWargamer I have an idea! What color do you never use?

@@PeteTheWargamer The T'au are spreading the greater good across many different planets- what about an amphibious assault t'au force?
Looking amazing, as always.
Only "issue" for me is the fact, that every one of them has one scabbard, regardless of whether the grey knight has none, one or even two swords.
But besides this little pickiness on my behalf it's a really great conversion 👍👍👍

I'd love to see more kill-team creations like this, it's very cool and great source of inspiration!
Ahh my boys have never looked so good in plastic. Much better than my old lead ones too, haha
Looks like something for a Grey Knight/ Demon spacehulk game. Nicely done.
I'd love to see some kind of Eldar Killteam some time from you! Your work is simply phenomenal
Circle Hello!
Looks great, obviously
I actually got the idea to build these as my next project after watching one of your bat reps, so thanks!
@@PeteTheWargamer Stormcast grey Knights op, for sure.
Keep the Kill Teams coming. Would be kool to see you cover each Faction.
Your kill teams are really inspiring. I'm planning on doing an Ultramarines Tyrannic War Veterans team of xenos killer specialists, definitely inspired by your Raptors team!
Love the idea!
I would love to see an Ork kill team. Lots of potential for kitbashing and custom pieces - especially with Mega Nobz.
I've heard a lot of people who suggested Gaunts Ghosts would make a good killteam when those models came out. I'm not suggesting you do Gaunt obviously, it just got a kit. But maybe a cool Imperial Guard Killteam. Proper commandos style. And not a standard cadian or krieg team. Maybe a more unusual regiment or a brand new custom one.
Maybe Savlar Chem dogs
Never seem something this high lvl before, truely amazing

Grey Knights are my favorite. I love how chunky and detailed these are. That huge tome is such a nice touch.
These look amazing!!!
Chaos kill team next!!
I love these killteam videos for kitbashing a squad rather than one dude, it gives more ideas for inspiration compared to having the one model to look at
I watch this video as hobby therapy. I love the intent and complexity, and how it equates to such a beautiful solution.
You've utterly spoiled us by putting all this in one video, bravo!
You are one of the three Triforce shards in the hobby, seriously. You bring so much to the hobby that it's ridiculous, please continue to make these small squad conversions, they are the best!
Pete, I believe that this is easily your best work yet.
After 3 years those are probably the coolest conversions out there
I’m glad to see someone is making the Grey Knights look as good on the tabletop as they are in the lore. These proportions look MUCH better.
it's SO LOVELY. I really want to just make an entire army like this, No idea how that would work but I love this killteam.
You had me worried for a minute there with the terminator vents, glad you took the step to get powerpacks on there it makes a huge difference. For me still a little terminatory but just enough to say they aren't love them. Perfect kill team, hope you do more teams like this an absolute joy to watch and very inspiring.
I absolutely want to see a kitbash for the Jornhammer pack for the space wolves.
I would love to see your take on a chaos space marine kill team
this almost makes me want to paint again!
This is something I just love about kill team. More than ever, it's about YOUR dudes. You can customize and invest into them, each losses will be felt, each models will tell a story
Dude, these are amazing. That paint job and basing is unreal, especially that psychic blast effect with the rocks, insane
Your customization and painting style is second to none - Great job!
A Craftworld Kill Team could make a nice change from the Marines.
It would indeed. It would also be a good excuse to do some exodites!
@@PeteTheWargamer I'd love to see that
The video was great, and the models look amazing !
I'd also love to see you tackle a Tau Empire Kill Team ! A mixed race team with T'au, Kroot and human would be very cool !
I'd like Sister of Battle or Thousand Sons Kill team. They are armies with a lot of lore and references
SoBs would be awesome, I've had an idea for them for a while now. Basically a Repentia squad but one that has been sanctioned to use regular armour and weapons in order to complete a suicide mission.

the floating rocks on the leader's base are an epic touch!
Thank you! I have been waiting for a good grey knight kitbash video for a long time. Gonna get started on my kill team
OMG, they are looking awesome on the preview! Can't wait to see them )
Amazing work as usual ! Your Kill Team kitbashes are truly an inspiration.
Absolutely fantastic! Everytime I receive a notification you've posted I just have to watch!
Grey knights were my first army, great to see them getting some love.
Great video! An Alpha Legion kill team could be super cool! Having a mix of unmutated and mutated marines, and maybe even one with that "phasing out of a disguise" thing that so many people do with them!
Would love to see how you handle a eldar killteam
Your channel has inspired me to make some veteran skitarii combining the vanguard with sisters and Rangers with the new plastic Krieg when they get their release. Love your videos congrats being featured on warhammer community.
This looks amazing and makes me want to start with the hobby myself! I love how Calidus turned out!
These look great, love the one tearing up his base with psychic power.
I love your Kill Team builds! The amount of character and individuality in them is the reason I love and want to collect warhammer. Maybe next time some more Chaosy Kill Team?
Very nice! I do feel like the bare headed members, the squad leader especially, have inherited a bit of "Termi hunch" from the torsos, tho...
Found this vid randomly a few months ago. Since then I’ve build a full army using this method with a few personal tweaks. Thanks
This was as always even better than the last video and probably your best space Marine kill team
This is your best work yet. I'm in awe.
waiting for you to have a go on all the factions now, that kill team concept is such a cool idea to personalize minis rather than having a generic army! Nice work mate!
The fact that you don't even subassemble the heads makes my inner painter twitch but the results are fantastic man! Well done!
Such talent, much wow
I'm glad to see the 666th Chapter on this channel.
More, more!!! You are the best! Do videos for the painting too please!
With all this detail you manage to get on these minies, I'd personally love to see what you could pull off with an Ork KillTeam.
Those are the coolest Grey Knights models i have seen. Awesome work!
I love the look of the rising rocks on the leader. So much so that I copied it when kitbashing a psyker for my guard army
Honestly, the chunkier proportions here kinda make these guys look more like regular Space Marines as depicted in most of the artwork. It's a neat look, I really like it!
Amazing work, I like the parchment technique.
This is one of my favorites for sure. I love the purity seals
Seriously, best one yet! Been thinking about combining these two models myself. Epic work my dude!
My vote is on some flavor of Chaos Marine next! I’d love to see you tackle an Iron Warriors kill team :)
They look awesome. It's nice to know that terminator sized torsos work well with the bladeguard
I would love to see a kitbashed Admech kill team, also, I could use a Tome Keepers Conversion Guide and a Chapter Serf Kitbash Guide
Really hope you do one for Nightlords, I plan on making one but I lack imagination beyond using the forge world mk4 shoulder and terror squad upgrades.
this si perfect timing , I am currently building a grey knight army and was thinking about building an extra grey knight kill team
Wow this is awesome! This makes converting and kit bashing seem way more doable for someone like me who just paints.
It's just about starting small, head swaps and things like that, and just building up from there. I'd highly recommend giving it a go!
Holy shit. These look amazing! Grey knights were my first army so I have a real softspot for them and this is extremely tempting me to try this :D
Would love to see you tackle an Eldar killteam :)
Love what you do on this channel.ive watched almost all of your kitbash and conversion videos and has inspired me in my kitbashes.looking forward to seeing the rest of your Raptors killteam loadout list.keep up all great work you do mate.
Would love to see a GSC kill team somewhere down the line!
The Grey Knights are the Hammer! Great to see you tackle them here!
I started on my Grey Knight conversions. Thanks for this video! It’s been a great help!
I don't play Warhammer but I love watching these videos, a long time a go I tried getting into the game but found the building/art side of things far more interesting. I was kit bashing before I even knew it was a thing, I tried to make tyranids space marines, despite not knowing what I was doing and just be 11 it came out okay. I'd love to see you do a cross faction kit bash.
Really excited for the basing guide! I started some grey knights before even the teaser of Hexfire and I'm so pumped for the new book!
This has given me so much more confidence and inspiration for being a little more adventurous with my army and future builds, thank you!
As requested please try out a Dark Angels Kill team or kitbash of any kind if it is possible.
WORLD EATERS! THE EATERS OF WORLDS! so much potential in various load outs of berzerkers, the occasional heavy weapon marine, etc.
These look incredible. I always liked the idea of grey knights but felt they looked a little cumbersome and clunky. You've really rectified that. Seeing the process and trial and error you go through is always really nice to see. Makes me want to make more and more kill teams.
Can only request mortifactors, though I know its not the most popular faction 😁
Totally awesome Pete, I will watch you make just about any 40k faction happily, but I would love to see you dress up some Primaris Blood Angels as a kill team (but after some non astartes get a turn!).
Wow, I love the librarian and his awesome base
When you ever run out of green stuff, you should just get the one with a gap in between like from Greenstuffworld ^^
Great work. If Games Workshop ever redo the entire Grey Knight line (including the birthday boy mech), I will buy the entire thing.
I absolutely Love the art of WH models
This actually managed to make Grey Knights look more than ugly outside of Terminator armor
Thank you!
Would love to see CSM or Sisters if the Kill Team theme is continuing.
These look great Pete, love the dynamic base with the flying rocks. Would love to see something with either Black legion, Orks or S.O.B.
Love this!! I really hope the come out with updated scaled grey knights soon!!
Fantastic video. Big fan of the kill team themed converting vids.
