Rogue Navigator Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Hello everyone. So I kind of created this account to pick all of your brains about a question which has been driving me mental. Does anyone remember seeing or even better have a series of portraits of the Primarchs by an artist that has seemingly scrubbed their presence from the face of the Internet? The style was, as best I can describe, somewhere between stained glass and a tarot card. With each of the primarchs in profile shot like the bust of a head on a coin. The backgrounds were thematic, for instance Lorgar's background had the grey flowers of his homework, the Lion's had a forest with eyes of the beasts of Caliban peering through the branches and so on and so forth. I swear I'm not insane, and sorry if I've posted this in the wrong section, but I'd really like to see if I can find it.

Wulf Vengis Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 They exist, and they exist somewhere in our storied vaults deep within the B&C. I don't know the users name but iirc they are a member here.

Scribe Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) Yeah, dont know if it survived the potential data purge, but those were all here at one point. EDIT: https://www.deviantart.com/nicolasrgiacondino/art/MORTIS-132081871 Yeah?

Wulf Vengis Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Those are the ones I was thinking about and a search lead me to Nicolas R Giacondino. I remember the posts where he showed them off as he finished them.

Magos Takatus Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Thanks to Rogue Navigator for starting this search and thanks to everyone that helped find the gallery and the artist. That's a really fun art style and I enjoyed looking through his 40k gallery.

Xenith Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Thanks for reminding me of those, I do remember them but they slipped from my mind. They are lovely stylised pieces.

Rogue Navigator Posted October 10, 2022 Author Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) Thank you all but as good as this artist is, it's not the right one. If I remember correctly the artist's name began with N I think. Sorry for the late reply. The art I remember only showed the head and shoulders. EDIT: And if it helps it was only of the Primarchs and one of the Emperor I believe.

Brother Tyler Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 From your descriptions, you're not talking about Eatsbluecrayon's artwork, right? Assuming that's correct, I'm still looking.

Rogue Navigator Posted October 10, 2022 Author Share Posted October 10, 2022 These are both popular ones, but I'm afraid not. It's quite astounding how absolutely they've just...vanished. I used to have them saved on my old phone but alas. The Primarch was facing to the side, kind of like this old coin here. But more colourful of course. Kurze's was cool, I seem to remember him with a pointy crown and he was weeping blood, very moody.

Especially like an extra figure hiding behind Alpharius. Great touch.
