Is it possible for a model to be both crisp as hell and yet absolutely filthy? Yes, this Scorpius right here. Maximum Death Guard.
I was not drawing basically at all before this year, so this year have shown me that the only thing motivating me to draw is my skitarii propaganda. pic.twitter.com/UsE0FNmTEu

Skitarii are funky lil’ dudes and we need more art rightfully depicting them as such. Just weird lil’ fellas.
The Infinite and the Divine is a good book, go read it.
Experimented a little with the perspective on this one.#warhammer40000 pic.twitter.com/iR52fGuDpc

Seriously, if you haven’t read The Infinite and The Divine you owe it to yourself, one of the best ‘Ham novels of the recent era. We love our grumpy robot grandads.
A clever little hack for making guille-suit snipers no matter your setting or system. Some old school hobby wizardry.
