:iconaerion-the-faithful:
Well, after a (somewhat) long abscense from DA, I bring you ter another image from the Dark Millenium of Warhammer 40,000.
When I was first asked to illustrate The Emperor ([link]) I remember that I was (as I said in my comments) quite daunted by the project, because he is such an iconic character that you either do a good job, or utterly fail. Fortunately, I managed to do the former.
Now I was asked to render the Emperor's most loyal and powerful son, and also the cause of the greatest grief that ever shook the foundations of the Imperium of Man: Horus.
Yet another very powerful and tricky (to say the least!) character, that took me a while to finish; but I think the end result is as 'big' and worthy of pride as was the Emperor.

I hope you will like it as much as you did my previous piece of the saviour of mankind.

Until soon.

Nic.-

I dont see Horus as having participated in the heresy: that was a different Horus.
Why wont you draw the loyal Horus, the greatest son? Thats the real deal, instead of this treaturous, inverted, black piece of rat vomit. And I mean the latter character.
The drawing though, is great.

That would mean was always evil, but chaos made him evil. He couldnt stop the healing by cultists because he was knocked out, half of the mournival did this to him. THEN he got evil.
