Absolutely brilliant. Well done!

Holy Crap this is Epic! i just started reading this one and if the diorama is this good i can only hope the book is just as great!



one thing im gonna say about Uriel shooting the Tyranid, it would look awesome if you could wip up a quick muzzle blast out of some green stuff or something to really make that boolt pistol feel as menacing as it is!

Outstanding work!

That is really amazing work man, my only crit is with the walky talkie cord, it is wayyyyyyy to thick, thicker than a mans wrist. try wrapping the wire around another piece of wire to make the coils, or use a guitar string and stretch it out. i love all the little details youve done, the shell casings, the peeling wall paper,even painting the inside of that building(the first one) to look like my game room(peeping conan)/war room.
Amazing stuff

You win a pack of Morleys! I'm so impressed!

Wow, that is awesome. I love the weathering, and I love the narrative of this piece. A good diorama should really tell a story, and I think this one definitely does.

I can just imagine that Imperial Guardsman frantically calling in an artillery strike on their own position as the space marine makes his final stand.

Great stuff.

Wow

I loved that novel! There are only two things I can think could have been different if you are basing it off the particular section of the novel (excluding the whole ice scape that you've already covered) is that the rhino was from the mortifactor chapter (but hey, it's your diorama and if you wanna paint an ultramarine rhino then you use an ultramarine rhino! Artistic license and all that ) the other is I would really have liked to seen your interpretation of Uriel's power sword! But that's just me nitpicking cos I could never do anything that amazing! Truly in awe of such fantastic work!
you sir have my lasting respect!

*edit* Meant to say I also like the fact you left out the gunner and made it all about Ventris, he is one tough S.O.B.! How about a Snowdog diorama? Would love to see what you could do with him and his gang!
