Olis Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Brothers and sisters, once again I come before you to showcase the talent of someone in the greater community. This time I bring you some stunning freehand work found on FB, by Karol Rudyk Art. Personally, I am astounded by the fine work and the level of detail on show. In fact, I'm so amazed, I thought it remiss of me not to share it. Also, it does seem that Karol may be doing another shoulder next, judging by his latest FB post. I must stress that, although I am the one showing off the pictures, they are not mine nor have I corresponded with Karol Rudyk on this. To reiterate: These are not mine. (Apologies to Karol if I've stepped on any toes by sharing these images without permission.) Again, not my work. Karol Rudyk's work.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 While very impressive, especially for the size he's painting that on, I've never been a fan of murals on vehicles. They all kind of feel like this: http://i.imgur.com/AkQx3GW.jpg Meh.

Teetengee Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Considering these things are frequently described as walking cathedrals, I always thought it odd that there weren't more architectural motifs in 40k vehicles.

Soldier of Dorn Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 :cuss ing Incredible. Wow. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the look or not, but still... that takes some skill.

Corswain Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 That is amazing. I was staring at it for about 5 minutes, trying to decide whether those shoulder pads were painted on or physical pieces that were glued on. Absolutely brilliant!

If it makes any difference, Karol Rudyk has multiple awards for his painting and modelling - including the 2012 UK Slayer Sword.

elohimalpha Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Beautifully done, to be sure, but it doesn't seem like something Chaos (especially Khorne) would take the time to do. Slap some blood and skulls on it and call it good.

Remember, in a universe as vast as the 40k one, there is a probably always a species that bleeds just the right shade.
