IHF's Gallery: Art & Commissions in the 30th-41st Millennia


Recommended Posts

HEY!

Hey! I’m IHF, a freelance digital artist with a history of designing new units for use in FW’s Heresy setting – more recently I’ve been doing commissioned digital art in several styles set in the 30/40k Universe. You can find me on Twitter below, and I’ve even got a small (& slightly neglected) blog categorising some of my more polished 30k unit concepts:

http://the-manufactorum.blogspot.com/

Edit: also, for anyone who's a member of a 40k (or AoS/ Specialist Games) dedicated discord who thinks the members would be interested in my art, feel free to send me an invite - I'd love to expand my repertoire/ client base!

THE THREAD:

Now I’m getting relatively consistent 30k / 40k based commissions, I thought it was about time I made a thread to share them on the forum, as a lot of the stuff I’m painting doesn’t really fall under the purview of my existing topics. This is where I’ll share & categorise artwork, and hopefully as I work on more personal art (that’s forum-relevant) I can do some WIP breakdowns here to help keep me motivated.

INDEX:

I’ll be linking posts from the thread by category, so these’ll probably get spoiler-tagged eventually just for ease of use

Iconography:

Forum rules don't allow for me to post my price list, but for any of y'all interested, here's an external link - just PM me for details.

Anyway, thanks for looking!

First up, thought I'd share all the stylised iconography pieces I've done - very obviously inspired by the artwork from the FW Horus Heresy books:

Lightning Bearers / Harbingers Icon:

Commissioned by Bluntblade for the Brotherhood of the Lost AU 30k project, check out their B&C thread here: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341460-il-i-the-harbingers/

Halcyon Wardens Icon:

Another one commissioned for the BotL, Simison commissioned this one & here's his thread for the Wardens: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316969-il-v-the-halcyon-wardens/

Tidebreakers Icon:

Commissioned by Brother Tholath for his AU Legion, this time for the War of Light project: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341414-wol-ivth-legion-the-tidebreakers/?hl=%2Btidebreakers&do=findComment&comment=5274112

Vakrah Jal Icon:

After consulting the forum on a number of designs, this was my attempt at visualising what the Chapter of Consecrated Iron might use as their icon.

Clan Brannsar Stylised Symbol:

My first attempt at painting this style, this was a fun experiment with a more intricate interpretation of my homebrew Clan's icon

med_gallery_53779_15464_452197.png

That titan/mechanicus logo is quite awesome and grimdark to the max.

Thanks! It's a stylised piece based off the symbol for my homebrew Iron Hands' Clan Brannsar (which also managed to get a FW bundle named after it), whose symbol is the standard cog with two chains running across it, as here.

It's been a while since I made this, so I've got a not-inconsiderable backlog of artwork to post, which I'll hopefully be doing over the next few days & weeks - to start off, I've been doing an ongoing series of commissions for the Brotherhood of the Lost project, consisting of lineart armour designs for Praetors from each of the Legions:

Okay, here's the next lot, showcasing some slightly more varied iconography work I've done:

The Grave Stalkers:

Another BotL Legion icon, I had a lot of fun on the lightning/ energy effect on this one - here's their background thread again: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312288-il-xv-the-grave-stalkers/

Here's the final lot for now - these are all vehicle design commissions (if any of y'all know me it's probably for my 30k vehicle design stuff), and while this thread won't feature my own designs, as I'll be setting up a new thread over here for that purpose pretty soon, any commissioned stuff is fair game.

Scions Hospitalier Abyssal Submarine:

This vehicle design (and the battle scene to showcase it) was a commission for the Abyssal Submarine, a Legion-exclusive vehicle for the BotL's Scions Hospitalier: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312235-il-xix-the-scions-hospitalier/

Tidebreakers Grav-Carrier:

This piece was a commission for Brother Tholath's Tidebreakers Legion, from the War of Light 30k AU project: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341414-wol-ivth-legion-the-tidebreakers/?hl=%2Btidebreakers&do=findComment&comment=5274112

Tidebreakers Bomber Concept:

Another design for Brother Tholath's Tidebreakers, this is a design for a Legion-specific bomber craft

Large Image:

Contemptor Jump-Pack Variant:

This design was commissioned for the Warmaster's Triumvirate 30k AU project, only a few months before the Blood Angels' Contemptor Incaendius was previewed!

Deimos-Pattern Vendetta Gunship:

Also for the Warmaster's Triumvirate, the brief for this was pretty much re-imagining the Vendetta as a Legion gunship:

I've got a few more lineart armour designs to show off, including one I was re-commissioned to colour - plus for any of y'all interested in AoS, I've been doing some creature design over on my Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheManufactorum

The Star Guardians:

This piece was commissioned for a homebrew Legion from the Legion Reborn project: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340092-the-legions-reborn-an-alternate-heresy/
