This is awesome! Β I think you did a good job making the warhammer 40k style your own though. Β Your scale is not as crazy as most warhammer work but this makes me wish they reigned it in to be more like this. Β Nice work!

Maimhollow In reply to ??? [2014-11-14 03:37:40 +0000 UTC]

Definitely thought war40k but I think in order to really get the aesthetic down, you need to make them bulkier. Everything in that universe is stupidly oversized, from their 7 foot shoulder width to their 3 foot long feet.

Great job though I Favorited.

Maybe that's not quite the Warhammer aesthetic.. but you've done something really spectacular in its own right. I'd love to see you explore this slightly more magical-feeling universe further! So glad I'm following you.

Nice work
Are you going for the fantasy or 40k vibe?
Also did you reference this armour or is it some crazy, yet awesome creation of your own mind
Nice hues and contrastsΒ

theDURRRRIAN In reply to Olsmasher1 [2014-11-14 06:59:51 +0000 UTC]

im trying to achieve their 'overblown epic badass' look, or at least understand it

basically i flipped through a warhammer art book i have, put it down and see what comes up that and some real life armor references to make sure it at least looks functional

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Olsmasher1 In reply to theDURRRRIAN [2014-11-14 19:39:54 +0000 UTC]

Ah I noticed the referencing in the armour, It looks very much like a SPESS MAHRINE but you can also pick up the subtle real armour points in it
what types did you reference?

And as a keen warhammer fan I really like this one
Was it a pre-heresy or a post-heresy marine Β (Ignore that if you have no idea what I'm talking about)

Only problem it this
What is this? A space marine for ants? It has to be at least...... 3 times bigger

But nice work and I see you reused the hues from the horseman death's one for the floor, NICE

theDURRRRIAN In reply to Olsmasher1 [2014-11-15 00:42:33 +0000 UTC]

Well its actually based on warhammer fantasy. its the color scheme and large sword i based off 40k. the armor was more inspired by the adeptus custodes and ultramarines for color

as for real life reference i just looked up any old suit and figure out how the plates and whatnot go together

Masked-Illustrator [2014-11-14 00:18:12 +0000 UTC]

To do it more warhammer-like try drawing bigger torso and shoulders, at least with space marines that is the biggest visual impact. But as an illustration alone is AWESOME, but (personally) I would add more colors to the background.Β

theDURRRRIAN In reply to Masked-Illustrator [2014-11-14 06:57:44 +0000 UTC]

yea i think i'll experiment with the larger shoulder thing since people are pointing that out
