Greyall Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 You know the drill, mate: it's awesome. Great use of the Mark IV, as far the armour is concerned. I do have some doubts about the head, it looks a bit wolfish. I can see how it derives from Mark IV, but I'd try a more FW Khorne Berserkers approach, incorporating the mouth into the faceplate more soberly (I know, it's a bad term when talking daemons). Just a question, and this is in no way a critic to your drawing: the spikes on the drawing, are they jutting from his shoulder pauldron? Again, very well done. You can see this guy is in command. Keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you remember from the book it describes that his helmet cracks open at the grill and continues to open into a mouth filled with fangs. The way its explained it sounds like his drawing is acurate for the most part, but thats my memory of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I know, mate, I just think the mandibles are a big wide for the Mk IV "snout" and a tad wolfish. It is faithful to the book, since it follows the part you referred to, it's just a matter of taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearingtheword Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Absolutely brilliant! Did justice to one of my favorite characters in one of my favorite books. Nice work! That helm is absolutely perfect, reminds me slightly of the head of one of the old D&D Glabrezu demons perhaps, but I don't see particularly a "wolf" in it, just a toothy daemon maw! Absolutely freaking brillant!!! ~BtW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Sensei Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Splendid ! Just finished reading the book and well, this is an excellent work from it. I don't understand very well the left knee position though but that's a detail. Carry-on !!! DS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Someone needs to do a conversion of that. Now. :D Well done man, freaking amazing. I agree wholeheartedly. Excellent job drawing him. Thankfully we have a great many very talented Word Bearer players here so chances are good one of them will do a conversion....

Firenze Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I dont know why, but something is off about him, the design doesnt look right to me. It's probably because I imagine him differently, but something is up with it. Other than that, I have to say, fine work again. I may do own version of him soon.

CM Dante Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Amazing job! Have you thought about applying to the art department of GW? This looks like something straight out of a codex book! Cheers, Dante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
