Description Cover done for the Militarum Tempestus Codex released earlier this month!

Military-inspired stuff is something I'd never decide to paint by myself (as you might have guessed), which made this illustration surprisingly fun to work on! Getting out of that old comfort zone and all

Art direction: Markus Trenkner

I really wish there was a Battlefield 40k game. Not the best name sure, but WARHAMMER 40K on a Battlefield scale game... that's a dream that'll never happen.

We are the Wrath of the Emporer, the Ghosts of Vengence, the Dread of our enemies, and the Death of all. We are the Militarum Tempestus, and we will bring victory. Ave Imperator

Very nice for such artwork that you didn't do very often.
Hope you get more chances to work in 40k.

It's so nice to see this in full, as opposed to the cover version, where some of the details got obscured by the text. Lovely work on the flames and the scorched earth - they really set the mood.

The only good thing to come out of the entire Militarium Tempestus/Astra Militarum debacle (and associated ridiculous fluffrape of Wardian proportions) is the new style of the Stormtroopers. They look amazing, and this artwork is amazing. Good job. :3

Yeah, it looks like a weird thing to haul into a combat scenario. Maybe they're on remote recon or something?

Boyoboy, Wilhelmina will sure be mad if he fires off that thing in her conservatory.

The thing is, your characters look so alive, so capable of movement that it is incredibly easy to imagine them going from one of the thumbnails to another, in those DeviantArt thumbnail views I have in front of me.
