There's a lot of already great 40k art posted in here, but much of my favorite stuff is from RT and 2nd edition and 3rd. I love John Blanche stuff and a lot of the 3E "Grimdark" artwork.
A lot of the newer stuff, in particular SM stuff, is too....heroic, too "good guys", too much fur, bling, olive wreaths, medieval knight type armor, etc...or just wayyy too "300"-ey. Too much demi-god-ery, not enough "psycho-indoctrinated, xenocidal super soldier fanatic warrior-monk in high tech power armor".
Personally, I love pictures like this, where you get a sense of brutality and "heavy metal" if you will.

The correct pronunciation is Imperial Guard and Stormtroopers, "Astra Militarum" and "Tempestus Scions" are something you'll find at Hogwarts. |

So many cool pics in this thread. I just wish some were higher quality to look good as screen-savers on my monitor!

In Boxing matches, you actually get paid to take a dive and make the other guy look good.
In Warhammer 40K, you're expected to pay cash out of your pocket for the privilege of having Marines and IG trample all over your Xenos/Chaos. |

I simply cannot pick my all time favourite piece of 40K art, but I will pick my favourite all time 40k artist, who is also one of my favourite artists of all time:
Mark Gibbons.
His artwork was what filled all the 2nd ed Codexes. I even studied Gibbons' work for my Art GCSE and A-Level. The Artwork inspired me to start wargaming more than any other reason.
I met the guy when I worked at GW in Lenton and I was just shocked as he is one of my heroes.

Arise thread, long since dead!

Seriously, threadomancy is frowned upon on Dakka. I know I'm not a mod, but you shouldn't dig up long-dead threads.

Does that justify threadomancy? If so, I'll have to take another look at the Dakka policy regarding threadomancy.
