Messor Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Epic work, this is a truly impressive and terrifying agent of Chaos! It all comes together really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I like how he's still has the unique armor of the Blood Angels. He's not Chaos'd out with spikes and stuff. It's like a insult to injury, or a thorn in the chapters side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Carnelian Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 It's used for scaling (and showing his hand's power), he's grown to about the size of a Primarch - and yes, I'm a supported of gigantic Primarchs a la 'Unremembered Empire' cover Thanks, Sampson Oh Jeez. And he I thought I had actually found one of your creations I could model. Oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 "pursuit of arts and crafts" made me giggle, as I was left thinking of Blood Angels sponge painting and making popsicle stick birdhouses My headaches won't let me read through that whole wall of text, but does it mention him getting much bigger at some point? Ya know, 'cuz his head is bigger than the helmet in his hand by a considerable margin... Also, pointy shoes!!! His armor seems a bit plain for being a (former?) Blood Angel. I'd expect a few more wings or jewels or faces. On the chest it would be too cluttered I think, but the legs have a lot of extra negative space to work with. Love the concept though. The wings of plantyness and the thorn handle ax. Very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyall Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 It is, coloured by Inkary (look her up on Deviantart, she's a great 40K fan). Thanks, mate, huge honour if indeed my work inspired you in any way :) @Firepower: the 'nudity' is on purpose, I wanted his fleshy armour to really convey purity, also in contrast (and drawing the viewer's eyes) to the daemonic botanica. Cheers, all, thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyall Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Und now, my gift for KBA: http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2014/259/1/b/lars_orcan___raven_guard_techmarine_by_greyall-d7zhch5.jpg Lars Orcan, a Techmarine with a battleship on his shoulder - I mean the attitude, not the gun. Next, I think I'm going back to challenges. Here's one about a fluff character who's next in line: Who has a spinny weapon and a tendency to skip work? Winner will be declared tonight or tomorrow. Hope you like this Raven, mates, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Something in my brain broke when I looked at this guy. You broke reality with that pose. It's...like his body and legs exist in two separate niches in space and time. Ok, a bit melodramatic, but I honestly did have a real sense of discomfort when I tried to process it. The legs just don't seem possible. It may help to have some limited piece of background for him to be standing on, like the outline of stairs or something, but just free-floating there their positioning doesn't seem feasible. Partly it's because of the body. Everything going into the foreground from the waist up, including that sizable collection of extra weapons and gubs, is his right side leading into the left of the page. Then, somehow, his left leg is breaking into the foreground while the right leg is sucked into some impossible vortex into the background. And then there's the sword, a perfectly flat void smack dab in the middle of this storm, which just divides the disjointed up-and-down segments even more and covers the waist, which could potentially have made sense of this contortion. Although honestly, I'm feeling like something as simple as three lines to show stairs or whatever he's standing on would fix my aneurysm in progress. My eyes want to believe what they're looking at, but my brain can't accept it. It's like: http://www.geekosystem.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/assembly-instructions-hell.jpeg Anyway! I like the design. Well, mostly I like all the techy gubs jutting out of his spine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 @Firepower, I know this one's not great on perspective, but man, you're redefining hyperbole now. His right leg is pulled back, the left one to the front (not that big a difference in size between the two), and he's slightly tilting forward. The "flat" blad is a bit of a demand when I'm all about concept and not the scene: I have to show the wargear. Anywho: Vazzy, you get up right now and fire a smoochie-round (not a Harlequin Kiss, mind you) at your missus, she's just earned you a side-order of drawing. So send me a PM right away with your character of choice: Space Marines or Primarchs-only, I'm afraid, either your brainchildren or a famous one. Cheers, all, and no worries. More challenges will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Debonair Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 That is one well-armed Techmarine, for sure! I think my favourite bit might be the boots, though. The design on the front of them is fairly simple, but it looks damn cool. EDIT: Done with sleep as of now. Must enter the next competition.

Firepower Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yeah, not one of my kindest reviews, but you know I have to call them as I see them. Even when it comes to awkward crotch dragons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fivepointedstar Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I have to say I have a soft spot for techmarines. So this guy is one good looking marine . Like others posted above and stated, its the ornate armor that just pops. I understand he's an artificer, but damn, you made the omnissiah proud.
