Description I finally gave one of my characters a name.

I just didn't feel that my first techpriest gave the "feeling" of Adeptus Mechanicus. So I decided, since I had warhammer on the brain, that I'd rectify that. Here is a better one. I spent more time on the shading than the first one. Also remembered to give him a weapon. Future note: bolt pistols were not meant to be drawn at certain angles.

I hope no one minds that I take so long to submit art. Drawings like this take time for me, and I'm very busy. On the upside, I find that I'm always better at art after drawing something that takes awhile. I mean, look at my gallery. Anyone can see visiable improvements in my new works, compared to my old ones.

I don't really know what I'm going to do next. I have one more Techpriest drawing, but it's huge, and abominably hard. I don't believe I'll get it done anytime soon.
Ah well, now I have time to think about it.
Comments and critiques muchly appreciated, even if they're bad.
Hail the Omnissiah!

I really liked a lot of the older 40k art, they did a lot more stylized pieces than they do nowadays.

Nice one. captures the gothic feeling of the adeptus mechanicus nicely.
Found it while searching for inspiration for scratch building adeptus mechanicus-models.

Zerahoc In reply to xzantrax [2011-10-20 22:28:30 +0000 UTC]

lol, thanks. I always felt the mechanicus captured the tech-gothicness of 40k the most. and they can look like just about anything, so they aren't very restrictive.

Holy shi--- *falls over chair*

Amazing character design!! Seriously with the detail, shading and concepts. How long did this take? I like the print on the elde of his sleeves, even..

... can he fit through doorways if he has to use the bathroom..? Stupid question. xD;

Zerahoc In reply to Hey-Poo-Guy [2006-12-30 16:23:49 +0000 UTC]

thanks. It took me a while, like, a few weeks. I work quite slowly.

as for doorways, I'm sure he could fit through. That, or he bashes it until he can.
