Plague Marine Champion.

Did I mention that I love Nurglings?

[armitekh]

The C'tan Shard of the Void Dragon. Now they're all complete! I really like the Void Dragon Design, it's the best in my opinion.

Orks are really great.

In lore the orks have a psychic field that makes their technology work (better).

But it's not exactly like in the memes. They can't make everything they believe in real, their technology still has to follow a certain internal logic. Nevertheless it's a really cool ability.

I currently don't know exactly why they're green other than the fungus reason.

Another interesting fact is that different colours have different meaning for orks. For example red is faster, green is ork-y, blue is lucky and purple is the sneaky colour. But that only applies to orks because it also has something to do with their psychic field.

I'm a bit confused on why Orks are the way they are…. I know if they believe in something enough it becomes true but how strong is that ability? Also why are they green if they are a fungus? I'm so confused. I didn't know Orks were that magical I think they are my favourite now

Thousand Sons Sorcerer.

At this rate, I'll probably make a Plague Marine and Noise Marine, too.

Forrix, I don't know that much about him, but I just like the general Iron Warriors look. Here I tried out yet another approach, I like how the surfaces turned out.

Chris is doing the Scouring?! Chat we are so back

Another pixel artwork, this time a Khorne Berzerker. I used a bigger canvas like last time: almost 180 x 180 pixels. Making these is really fun.

[armitekh]

Here's the next C'tan. The Transcendent C'tan. The next, last and in my opinion best C'tan will be the Void Dragon.

Yesterday, I tried out using a bigger canvas for my pixel art. I like how it turned out.

Anyone wants to do an art trade?

Hello, i recently made an art trade and it was fun, so is anyone interested in that? If yes, you can DM me. It's alright if you're an artist or if you write. Depending on which effort level we agree on, I may finish my part that same day or at the weekend.

I tagged this post with warhammer 40k because I mostly do warhammer fanart.

Ahriman during the Horus Heresy.

Nice and Thank you for the recommendations! I also can't recommend Valdor: Birth of the Imperium enough, especially if you like Custodes. It's good, solid and not overlong.

Cypher: Lord of the Fallen has been standing in my hobby store for half a year now and noone bought it 👀. When I'm finished with my current book I might get it, although I don't know much about Dark Angels and never had much of an interest in them.

My personal favourite is the Infinite and the Divine and the books and Short Stories by Nate Crowley, but those are all Necron books.

Some Horus Heresy Books are also good, but I didn't read them chronologically. I just picked some out that sounded interesting.

Good Day,

You mentioned that you read a lot lately. Do you have any recommendations or absolute favourites? (Warhammer/BL related)

I read an unfortunate amount yes... I also have emotional goldfish memory, and can barely remember how i felt about a book a week after i finished it. This is a very hard question to answer for that reason XD I can base my answers here on what books i recall attempting to persuade my non-40k friends to read. Some of them i still remember the emotion of liking, all of them i must conclude i loved because i was harrassing people about them.

First of all i will always shill for the custodes and recommend "Valdor: Birth of the Imperium". my golden book, so to say. a beautiful microcosm on the inescapable existence of conflict when there is a class of people defined by conflict.

"Cypher: Lord of the Fallen" was also amazing. I still distinctly remember the frustration of being unable to recommend it to anyone i know due to how much background it requires. I made the mistake of listening to this one as an audiobook first, because it was Dark Angels and i assumed i wouldn't like it (for some reason i am addicted to DA despite Not Liking Them). as soon as that was done i went and ordered the paperback version because i could not imagine living my life without a hard copy of that book. it was That Good. buying an epub (90% of my library is kobo epubs) wasn't enough. i need to HOLD that thing.

"Red Tithe" also instantly became a favorite. i think that book catered to me personally more than any other 40k book i have read XD. it's so sober and tactical hrrrnnngggggg. the author clearly is deeply engaged by his battle tactics, and i can get a little tired of reading authors who are more interested in The Characters and The Themes. this is bolter porn: I LOVE BOLTER PORN. i am not ashamed of that. this is some highly enrapturing bolter porn.

then as last time i have to be überautistic and tell you the Age of Darkness rulebook is my best friend. that's not a novel obv i just really like it-

[armitekh]

The C'tan Shard of the Nightbringer. That model has such cool rules (Gaze of Death) and a cool scythe.

I experimented with a new style. I wanted to achieve something that's quicker to do than my usual approach. I like how it turned out.

This is an artwork series. I will also do the other three.

[armitekh]

Art Trade for @heuldoch7b . It's their OC noise marine Klaxon. This guy rocks 🤘.

It was really fun to draw him because of the design and vibrant colour scheme.

[armitekh]

I finally finished my old pixel art WIP of Lorgar! I may do other primarch portraits in that style. I just have to decide who's next.
