Hey everyone,

More Warhammer 40,000 commissions, hurray! But seriously, I should have some non 40k stuff coming up soon.

This image features a terminator of the Emperor's Shields space marine chapter as he stands before a demon-infested plinth to the Chaos god Slaanesh.

Quote: "The double aquila ship is likely a starship, as its structure does not appear to be suited for atmosperic flight. To appear that big from the surface... gigantic. Only ship I know of, that would match that description, is the ancient mobile star fortress the Fire Hawks chapter took with them when they vanished.
The Legion of the Damned is reported to have used a derelict-looking ship of this description above the cemetery world of Certus Minor. It destroyed the Keeler comet and the remains of the Cholercaust armada in orbit while the Legion butchered the Cholercaust on the surface.
The ship above Certus Minor shot the comet with giant torpedo. The description of its launch matches that launch tube between the aquila heads."
Hope that helps.

What's hard is trying to figure out if it's friendly or not.

i think its friendly since it has:

A: gunships seemingly flying alongside it in the same direction.
B: it looks like someone slapped an extra double headed eagle on top of the first.
C: it doesnt look slaanesh or that chaos to me....

just my 5 cents...

Hmmm....
The gunships are flying below it without being attack.
And the hole looks maybe more like an exhaust port, so maybe it's something leaving the battle.
Although it also looks like it's on fire or something similar.

So, maybe it could be an Imperial ship. Then again, it could be something chaotic hidden as an Imperial vessel. But that's just my two cents.

looks beautiful ... very pleasing to the eyes ... you just made slaanesh stronger by creating a beautiful picture of loyalist trying to wipe out slaanesh. just pointing out the irony. but seriously the picture is beautiful and i really don't have any words to describe it's true beauty.

Practice some fundamentals and then go back to the fancy stuff. After that you may consider spamming.
