Dinks Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 You know what they say about name droppers... :D I heard it said that name droppers are sexy people. In this case though he is not, he is mostly gristle and scars. Isn't that right Pulse?

Wrath of Terra Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 We've gone from sword-waving to willy-waving.

The Emperor's Champion Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Still not a fan of the render aesthetics of the Hosu Heresy covers. Agreed. I like the images themselves but the actual render qualities are.....I dunno...PlayStation era. Like, the 3D graphics from the Castlevania:Symphony Of The Night's cinematics, except with way higher texture quality.

yhta Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 This version is a bit boring for me. The huge open windows in the back kind of remind me of Star Wars a bit...like with the star windows with Anakin vs Dooku/whatever other duels. This piece just simply isnt dark and brutal enough IMO, Adrian Smiths version is always how I will look at the duel between Horus And the Emperor. Looking like they are just about to fight. Horus looked like a freaking monster in that peice of art...like evil incarnate. yeah you are right.it isnt bad...but is just not enought grimdark of epic way to show the batttle. this will look great to show the battle of death vader and luke but not the emperor and horus.

Aqatone Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Awesome background but still not as good as Adrian Smiths masterpiece.

Artemid Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 All this talk of using a sword and looking cool reminds me of my freshman year of uni. I joined the fencing club, for something to do. They would train us in simple strikes and parries and then set us against each other with a vet overseeing and telling us how we scored a point, in all their long fencing jargon. Twice in one match I confused the ref. First time I managed a parry, followed by a 360 spin to score a blow on the opponent. Second time I parried, jumped past the opponent, reserved my grip and caught them in the back. Both times the ref just looked blank and gave me the point. My point. Even in a serious match you will try something crazy and cool to win. Both times you should have been carded, too :wallbash: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264038-emperor-v-horus-artwork-from-neil-roberts/page/3/#findComment-3223943 Share on other sites More sharing options...
