Greeting all

Thought of sharing this project as it comes to life here

The Primarch Project:

I have been working on a personal project for some time now and as a big fan of the Warhammer 40K universe i started with painting some key character, developing the concept later to focus it on painting the Primarchs. I have finished three Primarchs so far, The XI which was the setup to the project, and my first complete piece from the 40K universe. The VIII, one of my personal favorite, i love Konrad Curze and i believe he is one of the best Primarchs ever lived.And finally comes the XIV, the Death Lord.

I am still in the beginning of the project, and i hope that i would be able to finish all of the Primarchs. Hope you like the work

C&C are more than welcome

The XI Primarch

Number XI crashed into an ocean world, risking being drowned, he was saved by sea hunters and been raised by them. Living in a solidarity society of both humans and aliens, XI didn’t take much time to become the king of hunters. Later XI was found by the God Emperor and accepted to serve the Imperium of Mankind but not for a long, when he was accused of heresy for supporting a Craftworld in a conflict long forgotten, he and his legion were cast out from the Imperium by his father the Emperor to be forgotten just like his brother the Second.

Now thousands of light years away from the Imperium, XI fights his way through with his legion allied with the Eldars.

This is my attempt to create a concept for one of the Unknown Primarchs from the universe of Warhammer 40k.


The VIII Primarch

Konrad Curze, The Night Haunter son of the Emperor of Mankind.



The XIV Primarch

Mortarion, XIV Primarch, the Death Lord, son of the Emperor of Mankind, Leader of the Death Guard Legion, Chosen son of Father Nurgle. ruler of the Plague Planet.

again i hope you like the work
c&c are more than welcome

Those are really good, I really want to see more now. The XI is quite an interesting concept.

thanx still thinking of a concept for the next piece... but probable will be a loyalist

Nice art and i really like the concept of the lost primarch although it sort of reminds me of the blood gorgons, their armor is also decorated with sea life and so does their mutations...

Wow

those are really amazing, please do more

Also I agree with VI th legion its really interesting to see someones take on the lost primarchs.

They look really really good... I can't wait to the Guilliman (as he was in TFH, whould be awesome +1)!

Waow! I am really impressed by the design of your lost Primarchs. Would love to see more

@Viersche ~ Thanx mate :-D good hint, i didnt really know much about Blood Gorgons they sound like an interesting chapter :O
@Son Of Horus ~ thanx brother yes i am working on the concept for the next Primarch
@Lobukia ~ Glade you liked the work <3 yes i have been told that Guilliman would make a nice piece, but i dont have enough information on him... i kind of take my inspiration from novels i read, i just feel that by doing that i can somehow make the character justice (or give them justice... not sure if i got the term right ) so probable Guilliman would have to wait for a while >_<
@Warboss ZanZag ~ Thanx mate <3 most appreciated

awesome work!

I'd love to see your take on Dorn and Sanguinius.

Amazing

I really hope you do a Corrupt Daemon Prince Angron, your artwork is utterly amazing. Your idea of Mortarion is really cool and is far better than the GW concept.

Unbelievable! Are you a professional artist?

I love Mortarion. It would be great to have a massive poster of that hanging in my room.

These are amazing, and yes, Konrad Curze is the coolest Primarch

These look really nice,
Mortarion is bOsS

@Eldrad40k ~ Hey thanx
@Corrode ~ yes ... these two need more research from my side hmmmmm
@blood reaper ~ Thanx mate so glade you liked the work, i chose to go with a more steam-punk kind of approach rather than the flesh rotting kind of appearance, if Mortarion is the favored son of Nurgle then he must have given him something higher than just a rotting flesh. (i hope that make any since ) . Angron will deferentially make an epic piece .... yeah he is special.

@Relapse ~ thanx bro well i have been doing digital painting for a couple of years now and i am a concept/game designer you can check my website.. or actually a blog where i keep all my WIPs and game ideas concepts and stuff

@Lord Rogukiel ~ Thanx you can get one from defiantART
@Mr. Self Destruct ~ Glade you liked them mate
@Remulus ~ thanx mate .... yes Mortarion is the one and only .... i so much love to see him fighting :(

Greetings

i wanted to paint another 40K scene with more action so i picked Grey Knights as my subject fighting a possessed marine of Slaanesh.

this is my first try, coz i did go back and started another one with different camera angle

These are really awesome. Can't wait to see your Alpharius.

Sweet God-Emperor, this is some awesomely beautiful work you got going.
Your interpretation of the Lost Primarch is also interesting as well.

Keep it up

These are spectacular, I really like Mortarion.

I love XI and your GK piece - excellent skills.

Love your work! Why not try tackling the II as well?


Sanguinus and Alpharius w/ Omegon are the ones I really am looking forward to.

You are a professional artist, right? Because you have a better grasp of proportion and composition than most GW artists!

You, sir, are a good artist.
And I agree with lunarman.

@Durza: thanx mate yes Alpharius is my favorite and will get a special treat
@Ronin: thanx a lot yes just got back to work on the Lion, hopefully it wont take much time
@Mr Nobody: Hey Thanx glade you liked him
@SilverMK2: thanx.. i had to redraw the GK piece... hope you like the new one as well
@King Pariah: the plan is to do all of them 20 Primarchs >_<
@lunarman: @_@ yes you can say i am some how a professional illustrator and really glade to hear this >_< thanx a lot mate
@forruner_mercy: thanx to you too sir.. keep checking for updates The Lion is next

Ok here is my Grey Knight cover art. i had to go back and redraw the same piece again putting in mind to fit all the characters into a standard cover size with more action scenery in mind.
Hope you like it. all C&c are welcome

I think I know what you've been trying to do, but I don't think it fits as a cover

It doesn't show off Grey Knights. It shows off Daemons and, to a lesser degree, a valiant, embattled Daemonhunter (on the defensive no less) who also happens to be Grey Knight. The best fluff-change GW ever did was to down of the focus on Daemonhunters and up the focus on Grey (mystic, secretive, sci-fi) Knights.

Oh yes yes you are absolutely right. the main focus my not be on the GK, although this could be altered, but its kind of my fist fighting scene and the challenge was to squeeze all the action in to the slandered cover size of a novel. am not so into GKs more like Chaos heretic so maybe that explains it

I prefer it to most of the recent invincible Grey Knight fluff. It's more like the original 40k fluff. Though I will say, good luck getting the two half naked woman like things past the censors if you ever put this on a book cover.

great artwork! are you going to do more of The XI Primarch or his legion?
