Shkaabewis is a male Objiwe name meaning something like "helper", and in some translations even specifically "helper of medicine people".

Y’know, this chapter’s Techmarines could be called the Hardware Bears.

Oh damn, I made it into a TTT video! Glad you liked those bits, he really turned out great

We have a member of the Ojibwe tribe in our GURPS group, and he loves the space wolves. I showed him some of these videos and he pointed out that bears are not the only significant animal to the tribe. Wolves and other animals and even weather patterns are important. Mind you this was a bit of a tangent to another conversation so we didn't get in depth details at the time. Either way this in itself is kind of a neat point to give you more to play with for that specific tribe, unless. In either case you could have a unit more designed towards wolves which keeps to the tribes culture and is a call back to the parent chapter these marines come from. Nothing that would dominate the whole of the chapter, cause there's a theme going on here, but something small to have that neat effect. It's a bit of the old presented in a way that kind of brings it back as almost feeling new.

Was not expecting the Brenan jumps jumpscare lol

First off, not Ojibwe, can't even confirm if I'm Metis. But I had an idea for a name, inspired by the feathers on his shoulder piece and in his hair. How about Binishii? It means "Bird", and I was thinking maybe it could be expanded into a two part name, "Dancing Bird". If Binishii is from a section of new recruits that are Ojibwe, I imagine they still have some cultural elements of the Ojibwe on their home planet. I imagine young Binishii, as a child, liked to run around chasing birds, until one day he got pecked at! So the name "Dancing Bird" got tacked onto him as a teasing name - but over time, it just became his common name, and became a mark of pride. They say, once he joins the Space Bears, that he's blessed by the very birds he used to play with, able to get an bird's eye view of the battlefield so he could assist those in need. Maybe there's even some backstory where this very thing happens. (He might be slightly touched by the warp?) Obviously rely on others' ideas for names because I'm legit just spitballing here. As for the story, feel free to use it if it's interesting. Maybe I'll use it for a project of my own, lol.

The title of the apothecary should be “Den Master”. I think it would unique but it could also be weaved into the lore, like the Chapter Master is in charge of the army’s and fleets but the Chief Apothecary(The Den Master) is in Charge of the chapter fortress

Petition to get a video of TTT converting literal care bears into space bears!

Always love seeing Murrays paint jobs - would be cool to see some Space Bear decals!

That was an extensive conversion. When you do those close-ups I always forget how incredibly tiny those pieces are.

Dakotah. Meaning 'a friend of friends'

I have no idea about a fitting first name, but i really like Tenderheart as a last name necause i cannot stop thinking about the care bear part.

One thing that I've found works great for a lot of things with greenstuff and milliput is to have a little bit of vegetable oil that I can put on tools and fingertips while working with it for sculpting there. And you need the obligatory file from Chaos Gate "APOTHECARY! I'VE BEEN WOUNDED!"

Whatever happened to the chapter master model I don’t remember if you guys did a painting vid for him but I’d really like to see one

From a recent Iroquois discovery the name: "Kan Awake Running" would be a great multiple reference name, but if you truly want the apothecary to be more Iroquois like, Beads, the wampum. And before you ask, 1/8 to 1/4 from after the 7 arrow nation.

This is actually one of the single coolest 40k characters I have EVER seen. I LOVE that comment about how her drawing ended up creating a model that was really "out of the box." This doesn't just look like your classic clunky space marine (love em to death of course), it looks like a REAL person in a WARM-looking outfit, and it just works so perfectly in the snow. The expression is awesome, the pose is stoic and cool. It's all so grounded and has SO much character. One model seriously tells a story. Awesome

Thank you for wanting to find representative heads for the models-and especially for acknowledging the variety of cultures on this continent. I’m sure there’ll be a few “waah, I don’t want to know there are other people” comments, though! 🙂

2:22 THERE'S AN ENTIRE VIDEO WHERE JAZZ MAKES NATIVE AMERICAN HEADS AM I CRAZY ITS THE CHAPTER MASTER VIDEO AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

That's crazy how well you were able to follow Alysha's design! Those pieces are teeny, but as soon as it was primed, everything looked like thats how came out of box! Your sculpting is a lot of fun to watch!

My only critique for your space bears is that they're all BROWN. You could make ones with black bear pelts, polar bear pelts, sloth bear pelts, and, if you have the testicular fortitude, PANDA pelts.

Being Canadian I can't help but notice that the snow basing is... less than convincing. However you totally nailed the fact that snow season not only does not preclude but in fact emphasizes the grime accumulated on anything outdoors. Well done! As for a name, I'm not even remotely native so I can't help that way, but running off basic word association one of the first names that came to mind was Yogi. Yeah, it's cheesy & obvious, but once I ran w/ Yogi + medic... Boo Boo kinda seemed like a natural win to me :D

Wow man you are a Maestro when making original Awesome looking miniatures in 40K.

jesus I never thought of makeing a shape silhouette when making concept art of something, she's a real OG.

My thought was that he was a close combat expert, killed with surgical precision and was promoted to a care bear as he had memorized the anatomy and gene seed placements to make his killing more effective as he was trained originally as a CSM hunter. As for name maybe translated as "give and take"

This model turned out insane! You guys did such a great job

Lovey rendition and an amazing paintjob. Would love to see the searchlight giving the armor some lighting.

The only thing you forgot to do is do the ambient glow from the light on the top of the helm area

Yolotl- Mae Yolotl is heart, spirt, care giver. Also, Mae is the voice actor of alot of the original care bears, Tender Heart

A name that I think is fitting is is bami'iwe which means “S/he takes care of people” and “Is a care-giver” Thank you for the awesome videos you guys make, Dave, Rob, Jen, and Jazza always cheer me up, I’m looking forward to the upcoming battle report, keep up the awesome work.

Amazing model Dave and Murray that paint job might be my favourite you’ve done. I don’t know how you do it I am never impressed at first then all of a sudden it’s incredible! You’re a magician!

What an awesome conversion!

I think Lord-castellan Evander Garrius would look great as a polar bear terminator captain

Just after you soaked and stuck the chain on the fur at 7:25 all i could think was that your spacebear wasnt house trained.

OMG Murray, your color choices are SUPREME here!

I think you may have used too much white spirits when attempting to remove the streaking grime, the pigments looks very separated.

Whatever happened to the pack of heads made in collaboration with jazza when he wanted more diverse and representative options for his bears? I feel like I’m insane and making stuff up

The Brennan jumpscare 😂

Happy to see u back u r o e of the best on KZfaq for crafting thanks for all ur effort what u can do on blender is amazing that shit just wrecks my head

1:01 that's like 80% Diablo's angel design

I very much appreciate the B.L.M jumpscares.

I think this is the first Space Bear with a built-in shower-head to get rid of all the streaking grime. :P

So cool! Love this work. Good stuff.

Love the Insert Art and Tabletop Time collabs!! You have such amazing talents in the studio. (Not to forget the editing! Great work there as well!) Amazing work all around! So when are the Insert Art artists going to paint their first minis ?😁

Well it it's a Potawatomi name, but how about Sauganash? He was also known as Billy Caldwell and was a Potawatomi/British captain during the War of 1812.

Koda. It means friend or companion. But also the name used in brother bear!

Well done this looks respectfully good and love the comments suggesting his name. Awesome Kris is voicing for you his channel Way of the Brush is so cool. And name suggestion Senachwine ! 😊

Doctor Fuzzy Paws, he is not a medical doctor but a doctor of SCIENCE

Real cool. Now I want to do my own native inspired chapter!

Geronimo - June 16, 1829 - February 17, 1909) was a leader and MEDICINE MAN from the Bedonkohe band of the Ndendahe Apache people. From 1850 to 1886, Geronimo joined with members of three other Central Apache bands - the Tchihende, the Tsokanende (called Chiricahua by Americans) and the Nednhi - to carry out numerous raids, as well as fight against Mexican and U.S. military campaigns in the northern Mexico states of Chihuahua and Sonora and in the southwestern American territories of New Mexico and Arizona.

It doesnt matter waht cool name people suggest, you know it will be care bear

Yay this is so cool. I’m happy about the working with insert art too. I’m going to go and watch it now! Yay. I like the new head too. Maybe you could design some more.

It’s Grime Time babyyyyyyy!!

This is SICK!!!!

Searching for native names, I found WAHCHINTONKA, in the Sioux language, whose meaning is "Has Much Practice". I am not at all an expert, and I just read stuff online (so, please, feel free to correct me if I say something wrong or incorrect), but, apparently, in Native American cultures the name is chosen according to one's spirit and often changes more than once in a lifetime. If an important event and a particular situation occurred during life, the tribal chief and sometimes the shaman could change the name giving a more appropriate meaning. So I think it could be a quite nice name for a person who has medical skills, especially after what I presume to be a long training and studying process to be proficient on the battlefield. Another interesting name could be WAABAKWA, meaning "Polar Bear" in Ojibwe language, or MATOSKAH, always in Sioux language, which means: "White Bear". Following the previous logic, the name could refer to his white armour, as a sort of distinctive and introjected trait. I also found some names related to bears in different american native languages and cultures. I write them down so that you can possibly use them for other characters if you find them suitable and making sense. MUKWOH/MAKWA (Ojibwe) = "Bear" HONON (Miwok) = "Bear" SEWATI (Miwok) = "Curved Claw Bear" SIKYAHONAW (Hopi) = "Yellow Bear" KURUK (Pawnee) = "Bear' LIWANU (Miwok) = "Bear Growl" MACHK (Algonquian) = "Bear" MANTOTOHPA (Cheyenne) = "Four Bears" NITA (Choctaw) = " Bear" -> So, this one is a female name, so it could be nice to use it if you ever plan to make a female Space Bear character, which could be awesome, imho.

2:16 bro kinda flipped us of😂😂😂 Also name him asmodeus

i was not expecting the inclusion of 1 Brendan lee mulligan

Fuck i love that Head Choice. Looks so good.

Should name him Careikus lord of the long slumber, ensuring that his fellow space bears have a proper hibernation.

Nice!

Love getting jumpscared by brennan lee muligan

10am upload for the European crafters?! Hellllll yeah!!

The discovery that pipe cleaners are better for streaking grime is devastating. RIP Wooly Dobah!

wow super cool but why din't they change the gun

Brother Apothecary: Care-Bearious

Honovi- means Strong. first time ive commented on a TTT video!

I really want to see a Murray golden demon entry!

Your studio is much larger than I thought.

As I have nothing to say for now but very nice

Captain next pls

Heres the real question, what are they going to do with the Captain in Terminator armor? If i recall, Dual lightning claws are legal...

I'd like to point out that in terms of the Apothecarion, at least in most chapters, the regular apothecaries are healthcare providers, but the Biologis is an unhealthcare provider. The regular apothecary is a pharmacist, and the Biologis is a harmacist. Not so much of a care bear as a scare bear.

Oh, look, he has a Pip-boy! 😁

Waabshkaande Makwa which basically translates as "White Bear".

Hey look! it's a Harmacist! for a name may I suggest either Teufort or Kokoda, as I don't have many names that come to mind at the moment that would fit him

you should make custom space bear bikers on snowmobiles

You should name him Bartholomew, but to his battle brothers, he's known as Barry. Barry cares about his brothers' health.

Which color of streaking grime do you use?

Beautiful pair of cute pumps.

Brother Tugsand Hugs!

Okay. The Brandon clip…you had me worrying that you guys were getting him to voice act… *dies from dreaming* Amazing video, gang. This collaboration was awesome, and I hope more will come about in the future. The Care Bear…Freddy. Cause I’m a big FNAF nerd, and Security Breach’s Freddy is such a mother hen.

For the name of the Space Bear Apothicary, i think something like Yorek Alinor the Aweking Sun

Btw what rules do chapter masters take, I'm trying to make a custom chapter but i don't know if there's a chapter master datasheet

Team Work Makes the Dream Work.... Awesome Job.... Best Kitbash 40K Heroic Character... When I get to my Leviathan box, I guess I must go Space Bears... Now trying to find those Native American heads

Is there a link to where you can get the "Warheads" heads?

Care bear…..brilliant

Finally!

If you do a Techmarine "Build-a-Bear"

Do you have a link to the warheads ?

I loved the face!

Makwa, it means bear in the ojibwe language

Makode` - Bear's heart

Ojim-bo Jones (a play on ojibwe and osmosis jones)

"Care-Bear" is missing a vital marker...needs a big bear hug image on its torso. Missed opportunity.

🇺🇦 NAME! In Ukrainian a little bear is called "vedmedyk", where "ved" could mean something like "one who knows" and "med" is "honey" ("-yk" at the end is a universal sing for something little or cute). Also, we have a word "medyk", which spells pretty much like "medic" and means the same. So... yeah. "Vedmedyk" easily could mean "vedMEDIC", or "one who knows medicine". :D Hope this comment will get reactions, there are barely some Ukrainian words out there for naming. P.S. Bears are also often called "burmylo", which is ironic and means something like "the clumsy one". If you need more than one word for a name. P.P.S. If you think there is no connection 'tween native Americans and Ukrainians -- there were a lot of contacts during emigration of latter ones to Canada. Cloth exchange, common festivals, and much more.

I think Thesus

How about Jonas iron claw?

It's kinda ironic when you think about it that there isn't really any native American representation in 40k, given that The Emperor s usually represented as having a native American aesthetic to him, and all the Space Marines stem from his gene seed so you would thing most of them would actually have that vibe. Bit if a missed opportunity by GW if you ask me.

The shoulder...

The “get in the comments” made me laugh

I thought you had called him Alcair Bear already.
