At 34cm X 25cm this is one of the larger pieces I completed for GW in the late 80s, (too big to scan in one go!)
Set at the time of the Horus Heresy....I don't remember the backstory but there are some odd characters mixed in with the loyalist marines: An Imperial Guard commisar and an odd scientist guy. You tell me what's going on!! I'll add this to the illos for sale and if I can still make it I'll bring it to Oldhammer Day at the end of August.
Wasn't this used as an internal illustration in Space Marine Tony? I recognise the picture from somewhere. I remember wondering about the marine on the bottom left. I thought he looked a bit like Victor Meldrew at the time.
ReplyDeleteHi Tony - when you say add to the "illos for sale" do you mean this original or a print?

He means the originals (I think, anyway). I met Tony at Salute a few years ago and he had a very impressive folder packed with original artwork from Rogue Trader, Slaves to Darkness and beyond.
DeleteYou can buy original artwork through him here too.
Ho do I go about buying some? I can only see prints and cards in the store.
