Khrangar Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 It's Samurai Jack! I've been thinking the same thing for a while now. On a more on topic note, it looks really well done, as do all the Primarchs that you've done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracul Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I really like your style.. It has been mentionned before but it looks like the animated "Clone Wars" series which I really liked (drawing-wise anyways). I hope you will portray Horus with inspiration coming from one of the original art pieces featured in "Realm of Chaos: The Lost and the Damned". The original drawing of the confrontation between Horus and the Emperor (in black & white). It is this drawing that got me hooked with Warhammer 40K... Anyways, once again, this is incredible work and keep them coming :unsure: Dracul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarflord1 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Beautiful Aerion! Can't wait for the other Primarchs. Are you and FreakForge going to do any more comics? I love your style, too. Should do Perturabo, I'd like to see what Forgebreaker would look like according to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubal Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Mortarion is one Primarch i've been asked to do a lot; the problem is just that i haven't figured out his design yet.There are some good images of GW's version to be found with a google image search :P (just to get you started) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrata Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 A very nice piece of artwork there, very well drawn :P I would have to say I'm not a total fan of the style, especially the face, it's all too pointy for my taste. That said, very good artwork ;) Ferrata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerion the Faithful Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Are you and FreakForge going to do any more comics? Who knows? Perhaps in some time now... Thanks for the enthusiasm! There are some good images of GW's version to be found with a google image search :wacko: (just to get you started) That's just the problem, Tubal. I'm trying mostly to rely on the descriptions of the Primarchs to come up with an image of them 'untainted' by any existing illustration (even if they are as good as all the ones published already). And the fact is i have seen the Mortarion desings out there, and they are really well done; i specially like the Adrian Smith depiction of this Primarch. So, it is still a little hard for me to do 'my own design' without thinking about others'. But in time it will come to me, i'm sure... Thanks again to everyone who bothered to take a look in here. Soon, i'll have more stuff, i promise... Until then Aerion the Faithful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I love your style. I missed some of your works so I'm glad you put a linky in your sig :) Keep'em coming! Wish I never laid down the pencil and paper. Would love to see one of Russ! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Mortarion you could (as someone mentioned) go for his pre-discovery days when he slew his daemonic (maybe?) foster father wearing a home-made survival suit. I know I haven't seen any artwork of that! :DThe event is described in the Death Guard IA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. Hyperion Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 ive been watching these drawings of yours and i like the style. although, im curious, why do none of them have skin tone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubal Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 As he's mentioned in a few of the other topics the limited palette doesn't really allow for a skin colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I haven't seen any artwork of that! :rolleyes:The event is described in the Death Guard IA. I've read the background on the Death Guard and most particularly on Mortarion, and there are some really good scenes about him, like the one you mentiond. I'm going to put my brain into working mode, to see if i can get a flash of inspiration on the putrid Lord. A superhuman wearing old WWI-style gas mask and tunic? Interesting. Wouldn't that just be a superhuman 'Death Korp of Krieg'? :rolleyes: ive been watching these drawings of yours and i like the style. although, im curious, why do none of them have skin tone? As he's mentioned in a few of the other topics the limited palette doesn't really allow for a skin colour. Answered! :rolleyes: (thanks Tubal!)

The4thHorseman Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I really like your sanguinius piece, but I think this one is more dynamic than your previous two works, the pose is great. Can't wait to see more. Is the next Primarch Konrad Curze? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunmann Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Very good artwork. Keep it up. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronos Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Most stylish and inspiring piece! Most excellent! I'm no artist so I can't offer constructive criticism in the field of drawings. I am however qualified to say it kicks :rolleyes: , I really like your style! If you're looking for ideas, how about doing Perturabo next? Keep producing these cool pieces, and make an album! Boltman Indeed. I would most definetly reccomend Perturabo. A shot of him with Siegebreaker, or maybe planning out a strategy. Great work on the drawing, I will definetly look forward to your next work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my_name_is_tudor Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I can't help but chuckle reading this thread, you know why Aerion :rolleyes: You know what I was saying about time dilation today? There is some definite time dilation going on here, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that just be a superhuman 'Death Korp of Krieg'? :P Why yes. But not every Krieger goes well with the line, "You won't like me when I'm angry..." ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm40k Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Great picture! The thing I like most about it is they way in which you're not sure whether Manus thinks his 'new arms' are a good thing or bad thing... :) Your style does remind me of Gendy Tartakovsky (or however you spell it - you know, the guy who did Dexter's Lab/Sam. Jack/Clone Wars!), which is meant as a compliment, as I very much dig his stuff - I thought Clone Wars was very well done. It shares that stylised-yet ultimately human kind of feel his work has. Looking forward to your next one - can I put on request for the Iron Warriors and Raven Guard's Primarchs? B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
