I've just been given the green light to post this image up here, after working in secret on it for some time.
I was approached near the end of last year by the wonderful folks organising the wargaming convention AdeptiCon in Chicago, USA and they asked me if I would be willing to work on a commissioned piece that would serve as a poster and the official artwork for this year's t-shirts and exclusive prints. Of course, how could I deny such a wonderful proposition? Thus, and based on a wonderful model sculpted by Steveh Saleh, this image came to be. As you will notice, I've worked with a full colour palette this time, and the size of the original piece is actually two times bigger than I usually work with. I also had to combine the Sci-Fi aspect of the convention as well as its Fantasy side; that's why I chose to depict a "past and future" warrior, respectively, all merged with the imposing and timeless figure of the Demon. All in all, I'm very proud and pleased with this illustration and I think it will make the convention proud! If any watchers of mine out there will go, then make sure to grab a t-shirt and take some photos! You can visit Adepticon's official site at: [link] Hope you like it! PS.. The title, for those totally clueless as to wargaming, is an excerpt from the intro phrase to Warhammer 40,000: "In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future, there is only War." Nicolàs.- |

debo decir que lo que mas me gusta es el compadre del imperio a la derecha, me gustaron los grabados de las hombreras que aunque minimos les da volumen y caracter y los colores.
En realidad no tengo criticas ni nada, todo muy bien como siempre... tu estilo se aparta de la linea clasica de ilustraciones que uno espera en warhammer lo cual llega como un soplo de aire fresco... vas a destacar de seguro
saludos!

Great concept, putting WH and 40k side by side behind the demon, I love it!
Nice work!

I have to admit, when I first saw this I thought you were doing an early celebration for the big Chaos Daemon release in May, as GW is doing both 40k and Fantasy Battle at the same time with that release. But I like this reason better, and if my Dad and I hadn't already agreed to go to Games Day this year, I'd make him take me to Adepticon just to get a shirt or print.
