Another EPIC FAIL was to have a D&D cartoon on every Saturday morning when there was really only a handful of tv channels, then make the toys that represented the cartoon characters nearly impossible to find. They could've even made those for people to paint. Instead when you looked for it you found graph paper, books, and lead minis (at best) because it was 1983. What the shit...?

The museum diorama is kind of perfect. A museum would not dedicate 5+ hours per mini. And it's also a great insperation for beginners. Look how awesome and epic your minis can be even if your painting is not top notch, even if your skills aren't the best your 40k army will look great in the end.

me and my friends played DnD when we were 11 and 12. my best friend's parents were almost always out of the house, so we could sit and play undisturbed for hours. we would turn off every single light in the house, light the fireplace and play my friend's dad's Gregorian CDs. and we definitely acted the same way they do in that Stranger Things scene - things got wild :D it was so much fun :P and although all of us painted warhammer, we actually never played a single game of it :D i guess the rules were a bit too complicated for us, them being in english and all :P

I'm From America, When I was a child my father used to read me books by Sven Nordqvest, but as I got older, NO ONE, has ever talked about or known who he was and it was such an exciting moment for me to see you guys randomly just namedrop his books!
i was around 11 or 12 when i started playing D&D and painted quite a few of those old ral partha metal minis. no primer, the enamel paints stick to the metal.
I did my first tabletop wargame at the age of 14. Used Chainmail for rules, medieval warfare. got into D&D later that year. 1977, way before there ever was a Warhammer. The models in the Stranger Thigs are from the 80s, not the 90s. I had most of them in the 80s.
Great video guys, great fun to see
Fubar, Season 1 - Episode 3: About 20 minutes into the episode. Barry's house has a big old Space Marine 2 poster & quite a few glass display cabinets. Some 40k mini's present. Leman Russ and a Knight if I recall correctly.
I’m pretty sure the movie Ronin (the Robert De Niro one) had a physician who was making and painting a massive diorama and all the minis of the Ronin.
First, really enjoying this series so excited to see more. Of these armies, the conversions on the gargants are impressive but those knights are just something else. The freehand is truly impressive. Thanks for sharing!
There was a very good scene in the movie Ronin, where Robert de Niro and Michael Lonsdale talk about the 47 Ronin and Lonsdales character is painting a Samurai for his Diorama. It was quite a nice scene and one of my favourites from the movie.
@The_Modeling_Underdog

That was art in its finest form. Lonsdale stole the scene. Iirc the kit used in the movie for the 47 Ronin and the castle actually exists and it's insanely expensive.
I started playing D&D in 1980 at 13. Painting D&D mini's within a few years. Found 40K about 1990 and mostly painted in the hobby. I had every Eldar squad 3 squads of Harlequin's and 5 squads of Space Marines and a few Terminator squads. I even got a few bigger mini's like the Eldar Avatar and a Eldar Walker. Also a squad of Genestealers and a metal Carnifex. Stopped painting due to failing eyes and shaky hands about 2000. Sold almost everything at the last Game Convention I went to. I miss painting, but not the financial investment.
There was a scene in "Inspector Morse" it is from 1993 entitled "Day of the Devil". The son is playing 40k in the shed. The sargent comments that he should try putting his Kataphraktoi on the flank.
Started with collecting Warhammer, Battletech and stuff back in about 1987/88. Started painting maybe a year later. There was no such thing as primer really, at least not like you having a primer for acrylic colors and you using acrylic colors today - I had all colors from the limited model range (mostly for train hobbyists, like Humbrol, etc..., and they were extremely thick! Like one coat paints 😅) I could lay my hands on, be it oil, enamel, etc... , unless you were a hobby specialist back then. Which meant some crazy owners of hobby shops themselves or fancy rich old guys doing nothing else or paying some pro painter... But for the common kid, like 15, 16 years old - there was no internet to exchange pictures/informations/..., we had exactly 3 TV stations. None of them would ever show something like that except maybe for a panorama view of a gaming fair!, we (our local club, mostly played Battletech back then) played in organized local hobby clubs basically, met new people from different areas in specialist gaming stores, fares, tournaments, and contacted them later to organize a tournament style match. Some of them, I remember one event especially in Erlensee (near Frankfurt, Germany) where the other club had a smithy, and that dude produced his own tools to mould models. 😅 And D&D, here in germany, you basically met people like in the movies. You meet a guy who just bought the game/or knows someone/or wants to play/or they're looking for more players. And sometimes you got the interest from the odd advertisement (remember, 3 TV stations... - those adds would be in some extremely rare magazine, news paper, in some books at the end hinting at the games,...) or just simply the game stores. And those were rarely spread back then. I remember driving hundreds of kilometers to some... 😄

I started playing D&D around 10, iirc. My friend got the OD black and white box set for Christmas, and we started playing the following summer. His Mom drove us into DC to see Ralph Bakashi's Return if the King animated movie when it first released. Goid times, and daaaamn, I've gotten old.
Excellent video! Another great movie that features miniature paintings and a diorama is Ronin (1998, Robert De Niro).
Man i have to get the Peterson and Findus Book for my Kids. ❤ Thanks for sharing and a Great Video as always!
I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when the awesome nerds at Naughty Dogg worked on implementing wargaming inside their game world - they did a great job of making it feel like 40k, without being 40k!
I was not ready to face the reality that the dude who wrote Pettson and Findus obviously knows a fair bit about Warhammer.

I was 11 when I finally got my mom to cave and buy me the Basic D&D box from the local book store. The Stranger Things scene was pretty spot on for me being an 80s kid.
I think the 2022 mini series on Netflix: Hold Tight has a character who paints minis, has a whole hobby room set up. However, the first time I saw mini painting in a movie (and I am surprised it wasn't mentioned in your video) was 1998's Ronin with Robert De Nero, Jean Reno and Sean Bean. Lukas might give it a 0/10 or worse but it was the movie that sparked my fascination with minis I reckon. Has a character sculpting and painting minis for a diorama. Also a pretty good movie.
I so badly want to see you guys do a train diorama now! And not even cheat and do something 40K related. Honestly, its not something that I've ever been excited about before, but for some reason I badly want to see it now.😆
Wargaming featured in the following films and tv shows Callan New Tricks but just one episode Shed of the Dead low budget film There was a Wesley Snipes film where he had an ACW diorama. Murder at 1600
This was a fun watch 😊
I started D&D at the age of 9. And before that I played „Das schwarze Auge“ before I could even read. My older brother had to read for me!😂
Sorry for the vague description but I know about an episode of a British murder mystery TV series that includes a side character who does tabletop wargaming. I can't remember if it was in an episode of midsomer murders or in inspector Lewis. I know there is an episode with a historical battle diorama in a midsomer murders episode but thats not what I'm thinking of. Edit: After some digging I found the episode "The allegory of love" from the inspector Lewis series which includes the wargamer with his hobby shed and heavy metal background music. Since I wasn't able to find more than a short two minute snippet of said episode I'm not 100% sure if it is what I remembered. However that snippet interestingly shows amini that is clearly a Lord of the rings cave troll. Maybe ithis is the episode I had in mind or maybe it's not and there is another episode, possibly from midsomer murders, that also includes a wargamer with a fantasy collection. The episode in, at least I my memory, has a young guy with miniatures from a generic fantasy setting (no actual game mentioned likely for copyright reasons) and there is mention of elves. If I remember correctly there are several scenes that show his room (maybe it was a shed) that has a gaming table and miniatures on shelves. I distinctly remember the younger assistant of the detective actually being knowledgeable in the matter of the game and therefore able to connect to the character owning the minis...
I was wonder if maybe in a future video you guys could do a review on the gaahleri airbrush kit, the more expensive one.

In a Dutch Donald Duck pocket called: "de slag om Duckstad", in this pocket there is a story revolving around "Warbanger" miniatures that come to life.
Also, in the Day of the Condor, it isn't trains, but likely Napoleonics that he is "painting".
the Icelandic film Virgin Mountain also contains several tabletop scenes :) cool video from you, thanks for that :)
The show Community by Dan Harmon (guy who makes Rick and Morty), season 5 like ep 15 or close to it, is the best DnD episode of tv i have ever seen
Squat armoured train diorama GOOOOOOO!
What a super nice Feel Good video 💝
Lucas was born in the two thousands???? Brain melting!
The most serious love interest 'Mos‘ played by Nader Khademi in the amazing Norwegian movie Ninjababy plays Warhanmer as far as I remember.
If you haven’t seen the two DnD episodes of Dan Harmon’s Community you are truly missing out! The first episode is hard to find because online streaming platforms have removed it… is that good
the Movie Blackberry about that old cell phone company has a couple scenes with old warhammer 40k stuff in it.
I have read all the peterson and findus books with my kids, but I didn't come across the book with warhammer in it. Maybe I have to check it out.
After watching this I kind of what you’s to do a WH40K train diorama 😂
Instead of SpaceHulk let's do Spacetrain as in a moving diorama! However, there are so many miniature spinoffs for painting. Recently I found Star War metal figures, Starship Troopers, even before Lord of the Rings got so commercialized, my first few painted figures were dwarves and tree men, Ents and my diorama was melted colored wax on a wine bottle. That Ronin movie featuring the samurai diorama was epic though. I am looking through my South Park collection for that particular episode you guys showed. As far as Games Workshop and Henry Cavil, I am really hoping this will boost the hobby image. Yeah, KZread did feature a few celebrities admitting their association with 40k and even Warhammer.
Great video and Archer is badass, now do that train dio using orks.
Great and funny video! A big one that you didn't mention was the Netflix show Fubar with Arnold Schwarzenegger there is a scene where the tech guy has a full size Primaris Ultramarine cardboard cut out front and center! Also a funny show
Can't believe you guys forgot about The Living Daylights! Admittedly is was Timothy Dalton and Lukas won't be a fan of the historicals but canons that fire, light and sound effects...and don't forget a gaming table that opens drawers by remote!
Stranger things represented as 80s nerds, is fairly accurate. I started playing D&D 1979 at the age of 9, and never stopped since.
Great video 😊
I would love to know which specific episodes these are that they reference. Even the "bad" ones!
Hmm, I think the south park paints looks like the old Citadel Foundation pots. Looking forwrd to seeing Lukas paint some tin men. Maybe you can get hold of some carolean moulds? :D
You missed the part in Stranger Things where the Science teacher was painting miniatures In his garage.
The character Brad Whitaker in the 1987 James Bond film The Living Daylights has a massive historical diorama. I remember thinking it was cool at the time and it primed me to pick up Warhammer some years later.
'Perun' the military analysis youtuber makes references to 40k in his videos from time to time. Dunno if that counts, but its cool
I started playing DnD with the red box in the 80’s… I was in 5th grade and played alone at first. :)
