kombat-unit Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Hello thar, people! I've been missing out on the forums for a long time, since I got all worked into my Blood Pact project, and haven't done any of power-armored stuff. However, on this pic I've made a shot of drawing a proportionate and none-cartoony loayalist marine, so I think it came out rather nice to show you all. This is a collaboration with another deviantart artist, http://tyrantwache.deviantart.com/. I did the lineart, which you can also see here http://kombat-unit.deviantart.com/art/Suic...attack-91179836, she did the color job. Hope you like it%) http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/9438/suicideattackcolorbytyrpf9.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prot Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Very cool. The pencil art is nice and technical looking. :) Really good colours too. What tools were used? You gotta love those Khorne/Bloodpact guys, doing whatever they can to help the cause. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, these days I enjoy doing cultists more than marines, they seem to have more character, heh%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heh, thanks a lot man) I've always felt uncomfy drawing loyalist SMs, glad to hear that this one turned out more or less acceptable%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyriel Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Very good. But... What ruins the whole picture though is the setting. A space marine standing guard like some sleepy PDF private is taken completely by surprise by a filthy, skinny chaos cultst. Naah, dont think so. Far from beliveable.

A space marine standing guard like some sleepy PDF private is taken completely by surprise by a filthy, skinny chaos cultst. Naah, dont think so. Far from beliveable. Thanks. Hmm, and I don't think that Space Marines can be killed only by Space Marines or some really powerful Xenos, because that actually negates all the points of having Imperial Guard and Battle Sisters and stuff like this. Then, no one kind of goes by the same logic when even in official GW lit, and I'm not talking about numerous fanfiction, you get some brave IG commissar, that single-handedly, in open fight (here at least the cultist attacks from behind/above and with some surpise) takes out a Chaos Marine (which, by the same logic, is not only more powerful than a fresh loyal Marine, but also has more experience). The cultists intentions are not to ignite an epic close-combat battle, but to stick the grenade in the Marine's bulky armor and detonate it%) So I was coming from this point of view when I did the picture.

Scolar Visari Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 The setting makes the picture not ruins it. It would be foolish to think that space marines never stand guard and that space marines never loose concentration. I think that member was a little sad that his favourite loyalist got killed :tu: Brilliant job! One of if not the best artwork I have seen on this board.

Iacton Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Great stuff again k-u. I really love the sense of "uh-oh!!" in the picture. Did you ever finish the Sahaal artwork? I made the model inspired partly by the art a few weeks back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gordofski Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 That chaos carapace armor looks awesome! I love it. It looks to me like he's trying to stick a stikkbom in behind the marine's head, while falling. The 'nade goes boom, he goes splat, his squadmates take advantage of a near dead/disoriented crimson sister-fister. He looks like a wretched little twerp, just the sort of person I'd expect to be duped by chaos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job to both of you again. A lot of the time I see small proportioned marines in fan art but I think you've got a great handle on the anatomy/proportions of the marines.... just my personal opinion of course.

Loketh Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 The Crimson Fist is awesome (love the high shoulderpads), but I have to say that the cultist's arms and legs look too skinny and flimsy. They just seem a bit out of proportion compared to the torso and head. Really cool stuff though, so keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cultists intentions are not to ignite an epic close-combat battle, but to stick the grenade in the Marine's bulky armor and detonate it%) Yes and thats where numbers like a hundred to one com into the equation. Marines are few, guard are beond count and still a couple of squads of marines can take out guard armies. The cultist must first manage to sneak up on the marine with his enhanced senses and helmet that further aguments them. Aint happening. Thus I stand by my point.
