God damn, this is amazing on every single level. There so many tiny details the cut from the soldier cleanly pulling the trigger to them needing to stabilize the kickback on the gun as it just fucking dumps bullets, which is punctuated even more by the fact that everything preceding this are the soldiers just running forward unimpeded.

Well, this is just about the coolest 40k related anything I've seen in awhile. Episode 4 was some pure badassery. This is the closest I have seen any animation or movie come to fitting the image I have of space marines from reading codexes and whatnot as a kid.

Unrelated, but just finished Gears 5 today, and through the last half of the game I kept hoping the Coalition would just turn Gears 6 into a 40K game. (I did think Gears 5 was great)

Just saw this on VFX Artist's React. Pretty amazing.


It's probably the best amateur cg thing I've seen since I was a kid messing with Amiga demos and I saw the first HAM animated demo. Hard to explain nowadays but it felt impossible. Dude had 4096 colors on screen simultaneously from hardware that theoretically could not display a fraction of.

This guy is only "amateur" in the sense of income. Reminds me of an amazing "video editor" we hired years ago - and I put that in quotes deliberately because it's like calling Hulk a weightlifting enthusiast.

In my experience, people working on their own doing for no reason other than sheer inspiration and fun can work wonders.

My favorite video editor does 80s films to Lifelike music for kicks, and the man's a wunderkind.

I haven't played any of the games, but these videos piqued my interest. I heard the 40K Space Marine game was good. Maybe I should play it?

Don't expect a masterpiece but yeah, it sells the fantasy of being a Space Marine really damn good. I'm actually kind of sad the multiplayer is dead now because it is one of the few games that blend shooting and melee combat really well.

I've known about these for a while, but never just actually took a look before now. That is some righteous 40K right there.

Markiplier reached out to help because he's apparently a 40k fan, got him into actual contact with a real person at Youtube. Still taking forever.

Stream today was bogus.

Pretty amazing how easy it is to hack and squat on a channel.

There's a new upload that confirms he's still hacked. Really sucks. Why go after some dude who just makes a great fan movie

Why the fuck did they go after him? Ransoming his YT for money or something? Fuck those hackers. Hope the guy lands on his feet. Also fuck Google too, it shouldn't be this difficult to get your channel back.
Imagine this:

But with some sweaty asshole in a room with access to some cheap tech to do forced hacking of people's account. Just to be an asshole.

Also, I'll second CenturionNami's remark, Arch Warhammer is a nazi alt-righter cunt who is toxic as fuck to the Warhammer community. Don't link his stuff.

Honestly shocked YouTube did litteraly nothing about this. It's always been bad but really? Absolutely nothing and even after being in contact with the guys official Twitter account?

'small' channel with few raw total views and number of videos. Probably got relegated to automated systems manned by nobody.

Fantastic news.

And I was already super pumped for part 5, but this gif, goddamn.

ETA on part 5? Been six months
None known yet.

He got a mocap set-up a few months ago which supposedly should help a bit in the animation process. Maybe episode will be a tad bit longer than previous ones.

(Kung Fu Marines not included most likely).

Also posted a bit before that info on his Retributor Chapter.

But nothing yet on an ETA. Will just have to see.

Also, shame to hear about Valrak. Hope they learn soon that the Emperor himself was quite a bit of a SJW, literally in the warrior sense.

All the markings are great. I really like the kneecap number and squad info.

Emperor be praised! This guy's work is exceptional and really happy to hear that he got the channel back. I can only hope GW take notice and try to get this guy on board, with the Eisenhorn show in the works it wouldn't be that much of stretch to push for an animated feature with this level of quality.
