Your artwork is amazing! I'd like to see your take on the IG. Relic really half-assed the IG portraits - especially the storm troopers - but your stuff is better than the finest stuff that the original dow2 team ever put out.

May I ask how long it takes you do finish a portrait?

Depends. Usually relatively fast 3-4 hours or so from start to finish. Sometimes more if I want to add finer details ^^ Technically I could do 2-3 per day :) Which I did with the 2x GK portraits ^^
However I need to do the commissions first ^^; Plus I'm looking for a job now which takes a lot of my time :/


Thanks a lot guys :D

Presenting the Purifier squad ^^
I doubt anybody will mix them up with the Interceptors xD :D

Also a question:
Should I use the miniatures GK Termi helmet or the ones in the game for their portrait ? Frankly, the original terminator helms look a lot better ^^; And quite authentic might add :)

Anyways here is them Purifiers ^^

Uhm aren't those Purgations? They have the flamer and stuff. However it looks great.

And yes the original helms of the GK Termi minis are awesome (and way cooler 8-) )

Uhm, as far as I know Purgation squad a ranged weapon upgrade ^^
However, the Purifiers have the Psy cannon, that works like the setup team's heavy bolter, hence the pic :) Plus their psycannon looks a bit different.
Plus they start out with a flamer xD (Incinerator)

The purgation squad is the t1 squad with the flamers which can then get psycannons in t2.

Purifiers are the t2 dedicated-melee squad with the longest charge in the game and they cannot get any ranged weapon upgrades.

Great job on the portrait though, which I assume is for the purgation squad since they bring the dakka dakka dakka for the grey knight army ^^

Aye it is for the Purgation :)
The Purifiers will get a shiny power sword on their portrait :3 Since they are a dedicated melee troops essentially ^^ they can go ranged but they get the best out of it in melee especially with the Justicar getting a nice hammer :3

That is amazingly awesome!

But uh, Purifiers don't have a ranged upgrade in the mod. (I understand this is different than Tabletop?)

They can't get any ranged weapon indeed. They can only get a sergant upgrade (as far as I know) ^^

Anyways, next up is the Strike Squad :D
Kinda like how this turned out :3 Posing with them Halberd ;)
Enjoy :D

These are so great. Well done.

I like that you've given all the portraits blue ambient lighting. They're gonna look friggin sweet all lined up in the HQ.

Which one are you working on next? Purifiers? And will you redo the vehicles also? I think those are quite alright. Best to work on the more detail-centric portraits.

Right now I'm working on the two terminator variants (GK Terminator and Paladins) ^^
And no, I dont intend to work on the vehicles, since as you pointed out too, they are fine as-is ^^
The only vehicle I might touch are the walkers, since every chapter/legion has its own looking dread/venerable dread ^^ Though eldars and Orks usually have quite similar looking ones :P But can work on those too ^^

Apologise for being MIA ^^;
I just moved to Germany, München at the start of the month and I had to re-organise myself a bit at the end of august to make this happen :)

I'm more settled now, but being in a new country has its surprises xD
Anyways I'll try to do the 2x GK terminator variants in the next couple of days :)
I havent disappeared guys no worries :D
