W00t! A picture that took an entire 3 hours to draw and paint entirely on computer. Sadly, I chose a crap way of colouring, meaning I couldn't cut out the sketchlines without it looking really weird.

It's a scene from the coming Chapter 4 of Tracks of the Wolf: Lone Wolf.

It was a while since I drew Berzerkers and I got to try out drawing Armageddon Steel Legion/Storm Troopers. W333!
::ironic mode:: No, I weren't at all influenced by Wehrmacht when I designed the uniform.

Comments plz.

This is what Vannheim looks like nowadays. I can't really do him properly justice on the computer. But he's much sexier now, dontcha think?

And yes, he's wearing the same design on commissar's uniform as Rolf Yarrick. Two reasons:
1. This is how I draw commissars nowadays.
2. I got lazy and didn't draw his full gear. This is after all a quik pik.

Rough piccie of Rolf from EEnE in snow. Maybe back in his home country, cause he looks younger.
Just doodling to see if I could still draw them as they should be.

"Play something cheerier!"

Here's Larkin and Milo having a little time off, post-Herodor, but before, well, a lot of stuff that are spoilers.
I finally managed to draw other characters than Gaunt and Hark! Weee!

I love the way Milo turned out, soooo cute!

The third picture in the Gaunt's Ghosts/Black Sabbath sequence. I haven't started the next even, at the moment of posting this.

This picture shows Gaunt in a complentative mood. For those who've read Honour Guard, you all know Gaunt has one of his darkest moments in this book. I tried to reflect that in this piece, and get some training on pencil shading. The left hand still looks off. Hideously off. Ah well. Live and learn.

Next pic will be from The Guns of Tanith.

The second picture in my Gaunt's Ghosts series of pictures. This one features Gaunt and Gilbear runing down a corridor in Vervunhive Main Spire on the hunt for Salvadore Sondar, the crazy Hive Governor.
I chose this scene as it has a lot of action in it. And I decided to draw it anime/manga-style just to prove some people out there that you CAN draw WH40K manga style, if you do it with respect. Hence the speed lines.
They work fine in my eyes, but as they were my first attempt at the same.. be gentle.

Lyrics is this time from Black sabbath's War Pigs. Cheers to Iommi, Ward, Osbourne and Butler. You guys rock.

This picture will NOT appear in FanQuarter because of the size of it. If I resize it further, you won't be able to see all the neat deatail I got in there, like the dead servitor behind Gaunt and Gilbear.

Just a very quick visualisation of teh loxatl mercenaries. I made it semi-aquatic cause the loxatl are described as having blunt sense when not in water. I just hope it gives a vague idea over how I see them.

Something I threw together because I wanted to do pointy ears, spikes and sexyness in one.
Don't come blaiming me for not sticking to fluff or whatever, for this was entirely created by my ferytile imagination and a very rough idea of what Dark Eldar Wyches are... sorta.
