Semi-related: Orks!
In the grim darkness of the 42nd millennium, everyone is scared and miserable and unhappy... except the Orks, who are collectively having the time of their lives, and the nids, who just have a positively cosmic case of the munchies.
I haven't googled it yet, but it sounds interesting. would you mind elaborating please?
I asked my buddy who paints those minis a little about it and holy shit. what a can of worms! interesting stuff, thank you for sharing!
You have made a grave mistake friend. Brace youself for hours upon hours of lore about plastic miniatures.
you aren't kidding! friend of mine paints those minis and he was going on and on about it when I asked. what have I done?! 😂
Oh heck yeah!
I started getting into Warhammer 40k lore at the end of 2022. I only started doing so, because I kept hearing online about the sure tapestry of unparalleled mythos that 40k beholds. I checked out a dozen or so videos from all sorts of 40k lore people, but above all, I fell deeply in love with the animated series works that YT Janovich has produced. He does a hell of a lot of lore reading/combing and script writing to produce his videos. That really gives his videos a lot of production quality imo.
I'd love to hear any recommendations for a few of your favorite 40k lore YT channels. Especially 40k animated series.
I'll give Leutin09 another look. I mostly stuck to their origins/timeline videos to better understand what the heck has happened in the WH 40k universe.
