Primarch/30k Art

 Here's all the 30K art I have done to date, I should have Valdor soon. 

Last Stand of Ferrus Manus

   The Iron hands make their landing on 5^th planet of the Isstvan system, in an attempt to bring to account the traitorous followers of the Warmaster Horus Lupercal.  Ferrus Manus finds his brother Fulgrim in the midst of the chaotic melee to settle a score, and bring him to account for his treachery.

   This is a giant digital painting I’ve been working on for the past few weeks. I really wanted to try and push myself to do much more detail than I normally do, while still trying to make the Primarchs the center of attention.. I liked the idea of having a pile of Space Marines casualties from both sides laying around in the foreground to show the carnage of the Drop Site Massacre.

Below is a step-by-step animation of the work in progress

Last Stand of Ferrus Manus (Drawing stage)

On the rocky slopes of Isstvan 5 defensive positions held by the Emperors Children are being bombarded by loyalist legions from orbit. The Iron hands attempt to over run the battlements of the traitor marines, only to have their chapters worst nightmares realized.

This is giant drawing I am currently working on painting it digitally. It measures 35x30 inches, one of the biggest illustrations  in the last few years, its going to take forever to paint. I did this on Strathmore sketch paper, which I really like most of Strathmore's papers, but I have to say I really dislike the sketch paper. The pencil kept making grooves in the paper no matter how light I drew and it showed in the final image, it might be ok for charcoal or something. Below are the preliminary thumbnails.

The Primarchs /Getting Back Into the Swing of Things

I thought I’d try this again since its almost been 3 years since my last post. What better way to kick this off than by showing the Primarchs I’ve been working on. For those of you not familiar with the Warhammer 40k (30k) universe the Primarchs are the sons of the Emperor of mankind and founders of original 18 Legiones Astartes.

 Angron, Primarch of the World Eaters

Mortarion, of the Death Guard 

 

Lorgar, of the Word Bearers

 

Fulgrim, Primarch of the Emperors Children

These guys are all traitors and I hope to, in the near future, paint some of the good guys.

I’ll be posting some more updates by the end of the week showing some more updates and I want to show off some new art for a personal card game I’m working on that should be going live on KIckstarter, sometime later this year.
