Some beautiful cover work from the two new daemon army books. I'm guessing it's my pal Adrian Smith back at it, but regardless a big from me.

And damnation, all the demons look so good, despite how crappy some of the new models are (BoN particularly!)

SWEET,,,,DUUDE

I just wish this would include chaos cultists/lost and damned/traitors/any human servants of Chaos that AREN'T fracking Marines. Oh well, it does look sweet.

To quote Stonefox circa 12/18/07:

I imagine it will have a humanoid alien with an odd color for his flesh on the cover. It will probably have mutations due to radiation. It might be covered in skulls, standing on skulls, or wearing skulls. Lastly, and I know this for a fact, it will have one arm raised (or pointed) and will be screaming.

Okay, let's see:
- Humanoid alien - check
- Odd color for his flesh - check
- Mutations - check
- Skulls, skulls, skulls - yes on Fantasy, no on 40k
- One arm raised - check
- Screaming - check

Full points to Stonefox!

EXALT!

And 1 bloodletter has a skull kneepad in the 40k painting

No cover for Tzeenth. They definitely look like Adrian Smith, and they definitely look good.

The 40k cover has a skull on the left margin, over the bell!

The smaller gold bell also has a skull molded on it.

That said, my army needs more Skull Bell.

I stand corrected, check for both Fantasy and 40K on skulls. <Geez, it's like friggin' "Where's Waldo?">

That's been in my sig for months. I can't believe you beat me to it.

It was the first I checked, too. Congrats to stonefox for his deep insight of GW iconography!

@Dead Horse - I was actually worried you would beat me to it. I figured I had to move fast.

I think if makes you look at it from two seperate angles of the warp. as if you are standing at the precipace of the maelstrom and looking in from the right (40k) and from the left (fantasy). and if you let your imagination wander just a bit, you can see the details for the opposite in the background.. (40k in the background of the fantasy cover and Fantasy in the background of the 40k cover.

nicely done..

"my army needs more Skull Bell"

ha!! that was classic! I about spit out my lunch!

MAY!! I thought it came out this month.

As much as my prophetic prowess came through, I will say that I am a bit surprised. There are no legions of enemies that are being feasted upon by these demonic entities. Whether that is by my accident or by my design, as I neglected to include it in my words, that is for you to decide.

The army deal comes out at the end of this month.

Looks pretty good,
I just can't wait to see what's on the inside of this codex,

My fiends can finally take the field again!!!

Lovely artwork!

I quite like some of the new Plastics too, so while this is definitely not the most excitable GW release ever, it's shaping up to be a nice, rich addition to the ever building universe anyway.

wow, the art for codices are getting better and better...

well its a good thing they waited to release the codex in the best month of the year, May!



oh and Platuan4th, thanks for the sig!

skulls!

I got a fever and the only cure is MORE SKULL BELL!

Its in a different style than the other artwork but I like it.

Well, being plague bearers they almost certainly have a fever. And the only prescription...

Okay, Hellfury wins. We can all stand around having soda and cake but no one else should bother playing.

I am not worthy!

See now these are some plaguebearers that I would like to see sculpted!

See, at first I thought that all 4 gods were represented. Then I saw that khorne was shown twice. Sucks for zeench I guess.
