Love that heavy mortars and heavy caliber artillery guns are "Riot Dispersal Vehicles"

The propaganda mantras on your tanks are a really nice touch. Loving the dystopian vibe.

That is by far *the* most interesting and inventive Imperial Guard force I have ever seen. Looks really good to. I'm so jealous most of my things look terrible.

Nomis Ekul practice makes perfect. I stripped good amount of my tanks and guard and started from the ground up, when my skills got better. Also contrast is the God’s gift to guards players. Airbrushing is perfect for tanks!

You should try citadels contrast paint I swear those things are magic and they make any model look good

Have you seen 'grot guard' ? Search it on youtube, next level

These are the kind of armies I love. Not painted to perfection but damn good theming and story telling. Builds so much character and narrative

When one of the models said "keep your family safe" the regiment seemed like really good guys. Then you explained the fluff and the sentence sounded a bit more sinister. Awesome army though, the color scheme makes then way cooler than the usual cadians.

oh God painting all that white makes me feel physically sick, fair play to you

Hell yeah! It's your budget tau :D

I think we found Imperial Guard version of Marines Malevolent

As someone who has a Star Phantom army, you have my condolences. Edit: also as someone working in HK right now, I love your Hong Kong police inspired army 🤣

This was ridiculously pleasant to watch. Would love to see you do this dive into origin and background for all your armies.

Brilliant. White? .. White tanks?.. White? I can barely paint a helmet white without frustration. You've done a fantastic job, and the theme is awesome. I have a grand total of 9 guard models since I started to collect them last month :)

IainK76 Airbrushing is great for Tanks and Space Marines. All my Dark Angles have a nice smooth coat of Glowstonw green over the Caliban primer. Saved me hours of work. I can’t recommend it enough, plus Iwatta has a great get started brush and pump pack.

@@BohdanKaiba yes the normal base white from citadel is like cement.

Great look and even greater fluff. General Francisco has my vote.

Love the General Franco jokes and motif. The family-friendly fascism is nicely done too - completely ordinary, banal and acceptible. Great units and powerful army of course.

Ohoho, this is wonderful. I love the concept of a Guard regiment being used as an enforcer military instead of the local Arbites or Palatines. I love the Nineteen-Eighty-Four general theme and references, and I love how it's nicely separate from Nineteen-Eighty-Four in all the details. Wonderfully done, Auspex, I look forward to seeing your other armies if you choose to make more of these.

So it's Marines Malevolent , but as imperial guard , I can dig it 👍👍.

That's looking awesome, congrats on painting all that white. Although. Got to be honest. I couldn't resist not to weather the shit out of that lovely blank white canvas haha.

Love the 1984 referances! I also started my guard in 5th ed. But it was the Leman Russ that brought me to the guard. I made an old FW tank army with the plastic Russ kit, had about 6 to start and have expanded ever since. Get some super heavies next they are hilarious to run!

This has been my favorite video you have done yet. The models really look great and I especially love the fluff. Also great job on the pictures too. Please do all your other armies! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great content!

I've got a Griffon Mortar myself!! I miss Bunker Buster shells!!!! I wish they continued making the model!! I'm at 9000 points myself, though with Cadians, Catachans and Armageddon Steel legion. Keep up the great work!!

I'm doing a similar guard army with many riot-suppression oriented conversions so this was really inspiring - I've been putting the symbol of the tyrannical Trade Commission ( Comisión De Comercio) run by my despotic, conquistador themed Rogue Trader on the side of my tanks but now I think I might put some slogans on there as well - it's very Mussolini-esque! Well done on what looks like a very successful project

This is absolutely fantastic. All that small detail down to the writing on the tanks and vehicles is awesome.

Planet 'Orwell' is simply brilliant, as is 'guardsman 101' - very well thought out and executed background for your army, and frankly hilarious slogans on your vehicles as well! (y) I'm a big fan of 1984 myself.

black lining is on point, i love the film canister and land raider inferno cannon hellhounds. this video was randomly presented me by yt for no reason. pretty neat to see this old stuff sometimes. also the pic with the three mortar teams, every base got its own unique basing technique, its like a good guard army always is, it takes time to build and paint em, and afterwards they look good together. this awesome conversions too are some ive seen plenty of the battlefields from long ago. i love em o7

This really is an interesting guard army for a more game focused person, which is awesome!

Thanks for sharing your army! The amount of work you've done with conversions and magnetizing is amazing. This video has been a treat!

Your lore is fucking fantastic. I don't think Ive ever seen anyone do something like this. And it fits with the 40k universe as a whole while also making callbacks to great classics of liturature. Grimdark indeed...they kinda remind me of more competent, lethal, effective Peacekeepers from Hunger Games. Probably the white.

This is really nice stuff, very unique look, makes the Cadian kits a bit more interesting and i like the Orwell fluff

Holy cow, this is awesome! I love your channel so much. What a special surprise to find a video about your own army! Thanks for everything you contribute to the Warhammer community.

The planet's name "Orwell" is a pretty cool reference.

As someone who plays guard, I got to say great job on the army! I love all the different units (especially the Rough Riders) and the paint scheme. Keep up the great work, I have your vids on when I’m working on build and painting!

This is amazing, just the amount of creativity you did with this army.

I love the background blurb for your army :) Definitely the heels of any narrative

my man needs to get on "40k in 40 minutes", as another imperial guard fan I love your work, keep it up!

General Francisco *The International Brigades dislike this.*

I feel like we're all living on planet Orwell now, awesome army and lore to go along with it, love the state propaganda on the vehicles

Looks great! I love the personal twist :D

Absolutely stunning. As a returning Imperial Guard player I'm genuinely in awe of how original and clever your force is.

What an awesome job. Looks great. Very impressive. Very counter intuitive going for the clean look with the guard. Like your idea with the old photo canisters for the hellhounds.

my work is done! thank you for committing to showing us your army.

Original, creative, and great to look at. Good work, dude!

Thank's for sharing! I love looking at what other people do with their models. The sheer volume is respectable and the white looks absolutely great. The vehicles are especially good. I'm painting my own homegrown space marine army white with silver and black details. I'm using black templar bits and it's coming together quite well.

Greetings from the snowy forests! You have wonderful miniatures and excellent work! Thank you so much for the inspiration given by this demonstration!

I love the slogans on the tanks!! You don't only do great videos but you are also a great painter

Love the aesthetic and backstory. The flame iconography really pops. Always nice to see homebrew armies. Really respectable kitbashing too.

Beautiful and hilarious army :D Thank you for the showcase =)

This is a very nice blast from the past, I starten in 8th and it's so nice to see the progress of guard over the previous editions. I love the pallet too

Now we need to see all your armies. Love this one 🙂

The dystopian world being named Orwell is a very nice touch.

Very nice!! I love your background. Lots of imagination.

Really cool army you've got there, I'd really love to see them in action on the table top :D

General Francisco: Me being Spaniard: Confused and nervous noises

Awesome fluff. Extremely imaginative and creative. Great job.

I love homebrewed armies. The theme and execution is great. To me this kind of army blows a master crafted but vanilla IG army off the table any day of the week for coolness.

this is amazing great job!

Thank you for sharing your army

I love it. Great theme / lore!!

I love this backstory, it’s very fun being the bad guy in 40k. I love the riot police idea and style, the slogans and threats are just beautiful. My guard force is the subordinate to my rouge space marines army. They are the 234th rabid assault Corps. And the space marines are the Serpents of Iron. Their armour is factory grey cause they steal and strip the paint away, only having regiment numbers and symbols. Basically the force is a mechanized infantry who use primarily sentinels and guardsmen, who often advance without care for hazardous environments by the orders of their space marines who believe whole heartedly that they are “doing their part for their god emperor” who they still believe in despite being excommunicated living on a space hulk that’s hunted by many imperial institutions for dealings with xenos.

What a lovely army, You say you aren't a painter but those look great. Love the Orwellian name

What a fun army. Orwell would be proud!

Brilliant. Beautiful. Heartwarming.

Great video and Army. I love the lore and the look works well with it! I try to create a lore section for all my armies - it helps guide my painting and buying. And after hours of painting, its my tribute to my armies - who normally die defending the Emperor!

a total inspiration thanks for sharing!

I love the name of your planet “Orwell”. Nice nod to 1984

The generals name is asociated with the spanish dictator francisco franco or is just a coincidence

Very very cool.....always tempted by Guard.

I am usually not big on Imperial guard, but I appreciate the repressive army vibe. The fascist, 1984 and Starship Trooper vibes I also quote like. Also do you only collect Imperium armies?

I love this. Awsome guard.

Love this, just stumbled across it. Last week I went to work (secondary school) as Winston Smith for world book day 😂

That is a delightful theme for a guard army, and frankly, if the tithe continues the high lords will totally turn a blind eye.

I like the jump packs man. They also kinda remind me of Buzz Lightyear... I really like all the slogans and the conversions are very nice. Thanks for doing the showcase... do you have any other armies you might make a video like this for?

That's really cool!

I love everything about all of this...

some nice pieces !

Your army is so awesome

It s a decent paintjob tbh. Looks alright as a bunch

I adore how on the nose your theming is

Probably the most honest Imperial Guard regiment ever.

These are amazing enough to make me want a guard force! I love the crisp white. ... I might borrow some elements if you don’t mind 😅

Solid army. Love the theme👌. Deffo instrested in the idea of making money buying and selling (mentioned earlier😅)

Love the consept of the army. I always wanted to make a canadian "DKoK army" with scions and Orklocks. All auto guns no flash lights, no plasma or meltas, just bullets and shells. With the destruction of DKoK....oh well.

Double-plus-good army, you have there.

That Mortar carrier looks awesome

your a unexpectedly good painter, i love the free hand work and your lemun russ tanks really show how good you are but one GLARING issue on your models is the gun barrels not being drilled 6/10 could have been 9 but those undrilled barrels are very noticeable still great though, just goes to show that being competitive focused play is no excuse for grey tiding

Very cool. Cheers.

Awesome army! Love the Orwellian slogans!

Beautiful

Wow man that is an excellent looking Army and an awesome concept behind them. With loyalist forces like that, traitor guard doesn't look so bad Also there's a lot of people that say white is actually the hardest color to paint

6:09 imagine your just walking along and you see a valkyrie with 2 massive gatling guns on it

White imperial guard looks really damn good

This was awesome

"Pick up that rosarius...put it in the trashcan"
