I've heard that it's a trick which a number of smaller KZfaqrs have picked up on. Deliberately mispronounce words to get extra comments under the video (and therefor better engagement) from those commenting on the mispronunciation or simply just correcting the KZfaqr. He also is mispronouncing Catachan at 2:02, but hey the trick works - we are talking about it in the comments section.

I love that you acknowledge how expensive a full custom army with several of these builds would be. So many video makers just throw together a "here's how to make X" without bracing people for the impact of actually needing dozens of infantry models in a guard army. And since you make heavy use of Stormtroopers, and, at the time of writing this, GW just increased the points of Kasrkin and dropped the price of Stormtroopers to the old price, I imagine a lot of meta chasers are going to be scooping up any boxes that are actually available. Oh well, maybe after they get their next nerf.

You would probably be best off going to a bit's seller or just biting the bullet and using 3d printed parts for a lot of these conversions while just buying a box for the torsos and maybe legs. Though I can't see any good way other than printing to get that many bane blade commander torsos and heads.

It's amazing how much heavy lifting the Scion and GSC kits do for all sorts of human kitbashes. I've tried kitbashing AdMech Skitarii torsos onto Cadian legs/arms with moderate success for a nice flowing overcoat style. What a great video for inspiration, thanks!

I saw the blue in the background and immediately clicked the video - I’ve been interested in making Volpones for ages but there is so little inspiration. Sad to see your conversion didn’t work out. My theory is that a mixture of freeguild bodies and arbites bits might work, still some 3D printed / 3rd party griffon shoulders etc might be needed though.

I know I've seen someone convert one in one of those 5 more guard regiment conversion videos, I think it was another of the tank commanders upper torso builds, it might even have been the whole tank commanders torso with some legs cut off above the boot or at the knee, unfortunately I can't find it with a quick search in my history and I don't remember what they used for arms legs or heads.

I have a squad of Tunnel Rats for Kill Team. I found using Ash Waste Nomad bodies with Skitarri Vanguard heads gave them a more grungy, "I've been wandering in the muck all day" kind of look, as well as focusing more on the heavy clothing/cloak element. Awesome to see them getting some attention.

Navis Breacher legs with mag-boots are one of the single best bits I've ever seen from GW, and it's heartbreaking that you can't just buy entire sprues of them. I'd do an entire Guard army in mag-boots if I could, or an entire Skitarii army.

So I'm not sure what's all in scale with the current 40k kits, but I've seen a lot of fun kit-bashes using Fantasy/AoS parts, one of my favorites was giving the old free guild swordsmen modern guns. I could easily see using those and some tempestuous scions for torsos hands/weapons backpacks and modern boots but keep the lanchnect style sleeves pant legs and hats.

They are pretty obviously ment to be based on Necromunda Eschers, and thus propably something that could be pulled off at a larger scale even, realisitically. Also there are some very nice fan art renditions of the Xenonians on deviant art.

You always make amazing videos and this one is no differn't but christ if you can't pronounce stuff right. Co-misser-s? Ka-tach-in? Christ man 😭😭😭 Nice to see people acknowledge the cost and viability of these builds. Feels very down to earth and relatable :) Building warhawks is a weird one. They're effectively like the Elysian Drop Troops but stormtroopers. Looking at the Fantasy Flight RPG books for more modern images, I feel like anything but a scion head would fit alot better. Even the normal kasrkin head (with the breather filter bits chopped off for a more drop troop look) feels like it would fit better with their distinctive goggles. Adding grav chutes helps alot to. the Royal Volpone as an army are allready pretty well accounted for with the normal scoins kit, with more fantasy based character models for special characters, and normal cadians for the normal infantry. Its an odd case. You could maybe try using the new horus herasy Solar Auxilia for something differn't, or kitbash them with scions for something that strays away but is maybe more interesting than just blue scions tho. Speaking of Gaunts ghosts custom regements, how about giving the Vitrian Dragoons a go if you ever do another video like this? Tehy seam like quite a ballache to convert with their glass scale armour. Think the auxillia VELETARIS Veletaris could be a good case if you can get the scale texturing down, with their slitted helmet visors?
