Description
Hail!A little late this one, it's done as one of the alternative covers for Issue #6 of Damnation Crusades. Remembered spending 2 working days on this piece, kinda rushed cause I usually take 3 days to complete a cover art.
Was trying to do an action piece with the Dreadnaught since I had achieved a still mood previously. This time the ancient leads the main assault for the Templars.
With Thunderhawks screaming overhead and drop pods raining death onto the enemies of the Emperor. The assault begins.
FOR THE EMPEROR!

I love how pronounced and mighty the dreadnaught presents itself. Not to forget about the magnificent fleet overhead, nor the endless ranks following behind it! FOR THE EMPEROR INDEED!

Dreadnoughts = the greatest walker invented EVER. I want a Master of the Forge just so I can have more than three of these guys in my army! So far, I only have an Ironclad sadly. This is definitely a testament to their might and power! "Even in Death we serve."

And this was my favorite character from Damnation Crusade. I got to draw just a few pages featuring him for the final issue. [link]
As always, nicely done. I love the way you paint the Dreads.
