GhostMalone Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 http://i1279.photobucket.com/albums/y524/Taron_James_Beer/006f24ed-ad34-4445-ab02-4229d18ac4b7_zps41ce60cb.jpg [Pict Cap; unknown marine] Above all things let us never forget that mankind constitutes one great brotherhood; all born to encounter suffering and sorrow, and therefore bound to sympathize with each other. "Brother...... " The sounds of detonations and the warmth of radiation bathed his armour, he looked down from his vantage point and saw the motionless corpse that was now his brother. Another flash and another brother dead, those bastards of the VIIth Legion were picking off his brothers one by one with there shoulder mounted conversion beamers & Volkite cavaliers, the palace was becoming a tomb and the mounting body toll was increasing beyond any previous engagements attrition rates. The sgt was a veteran of over 120years since his induction into the Death Guard, now he carried an axe ripped from the grasp of a fallen champion of the blood angels legion, and a relic blade from the corpse of a vaunted 1st company Sgt of the imperial fists. His features where gaunt and strained he was an embodiment of the legions traditions and history he was one of the last unsullied. He lost his squad upon landing, his drop ship had been targeted by flak cannon fire and his fire raptor plummeted towards the palace walls. His squad were lost to the fires of war and he was alone, fighting his way through the palace taking rooms and recon squads out as silently as deaths right hand. He found other survivors throughout the palace, those that were tainted he executed mercilessly and those that endured he bought with him; 2 despoilers, 1 heavy specialist, 1 support marine & 2 tactical legionaries. They were a lone kill team in this zone mortallis, they were brothers, they were the last amongst the XVIIth company to be alive behind enemy lines. They were the Dusk Walkers. They were deaths right hand. They were mankind's judgement.

GhostMalone Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 its not bad its just not great.... worth the 350.00 maybe its got some sweet art from john blanche but the best bit by far is the last paragraph in the emps fight with horus. sadly though its really just a rehashed original with the pics in accordance with campaigns. I shall cherish it like a newborn but I think it will spend most of its life on the shelf with the other books.

I was afraid of that very thing. Oh, and "sweet art" and "John Blanche" don't belong in the same sentence.

GhostMalone Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 here we go again :P I appreciate the old school rogue trader art :) but in a nutshell I couple of bits added some fluff re worded but the gist is the same. no extra info on the battle for Sarum though.....

Vect Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Come on what's with all the hate with John Blanche... Yes it's abstract but no one forces you to like it it's not like he's matt ward ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282793-terra-will-fall-an-ancient-evil-returns/page/8/#findComment-3525930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 No one forces me to like anything. Personally, I think he's awful and every one of his pictures in a book or codex is space that could have been used by a better artist. He's like Brad Pitt to me - I honestly have no idea how either one of them continues to get work.

Barabbas Sogalon Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 John Blanche's art is Warhammer incarnate. To me at least.

Vazzy Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I have to agree with BCK, I've never like Blanche's artwork and can't really see the appeal..I prefer Neil Roberts or the nameless on Deviant art. Blanche seems, dare I say, too edgy.

GhostMalone Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 Well so we don't derail this thread, I respect BCK more than anyone when it comes to his conversion work and I consider him to be a well informed individual, I like Blanche as he inspired the grimdark that now resides in the back of my skull this does not mean that I don't agree with with those that dislike his work it's just a difference of opinion. So I have managed to progress, http://i1279.photobucket.com/albums/y524/Taron_James_Beer/image_zpse2aa89ab.jpg Thoughts?

GhostMalone Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 Thanks kage :) I've painted the right hands black so as to represent them being the right hand of death (Mortarion) and the black stripe is a gesture taken from betrayal :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282793-terra-will-fall-an-ancient-evil-returns/page/8/#findComment-3526357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
geektom Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Looking good, and by that I mean horrible! Just like they are supposed to. Your conversions are top-notch. Any chance of getting some shots with better lighting?

Brother Heinrich Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 it's all good, I use my iPhone as well. The key is to brace it on something so the shot doesn't get blurred by shaky hands (I usually use a combination of alcohol and a stack of Gaunt's Ghosts novels). Also if you use photobucket to host your photos you can tweak the light levels and contrast so they don't appear so dark.

Barabbas Sogalon Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I like it, looks more Death Guard-ish. You seem to have found your inner Son of Mortarion with that sorcerer.
