Description Drawing Warhammer commissars has proven surprisingly difficult. There are a lot of people that can make them look very intimidating and impressive, but my first efforts resulted in something more like a deranged band conductor than anything else. I'm making some progress, though, in my usual, plodding sort of way...

Pictured here in Commissar Verrx, of the Steigian 42nd, the Black Dogs. It's likely that she and her Imperial Guards will show up in a little side-campaign that I'm working on, someday...

Is she standing on a giant pile of conscript corpses, or is that just my imagination?

Thats right "For the Emperor!" Even though he and everyone else will die fighting, it's better to die for the emperor then to serve yourself and live. Pretty good picture but ins't your best lol

Agreed - I still need a lot of practice on Commissars.

But it's a start, at least.

DON'T TURN AROUND (uh oh!)
THE COMMISSARS IN TOWN

....sorry, had an 80s pop moment. Nothing to be alarmed at.

It's nice to see an ordinary-ish human in the 40K universe. I like it, but I do see how you could get stuck in deranged band conductor territory. (And now my brain is trying to write the Warhammer version of the Music Man. Oh, dear.)

"But he doesn't know the Emperor's Glory!"

Deranged, and I'm pretty sure you love me for it.

That's true - but I do make bad decisions on occasion.

I heart Commissars~
And I think you did a brilliant job of capturing the stern and confident look. Looks great!

Koshindou In reply to Seimei-roo [2012-07-05 14:08:20 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the kind words - I wanted to grab that 'lead from the front' mentality that at least a few commissars live up to.
