Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?

Painted up this piece for Gitsplitta's Mantis Maker competition, the scene depicts a Mantis Warrior Space Marine in the Badab War at the moment he finally gives in and becomes the traitor he has already been branded as.




The Star Phantom's offer was clear as he approached. An honourable fight, a good death, and at the last absolution. Galen readied his blade, shifted his weight, and stared in silence at the approaching warrior. A split second to think...

No. No, he would not die like this. Not at the hands of his brothers, not at the hands of the ones who would leave him nameless, call him faithless, let him fade away into nothingness. Fate had made him a warrior. Fate had made him a traitor. Now, as he raised his bolter and unflinchingly, hatefully pulled the trigger, fate would make him a survivor...



You can find the competition here, still plenty of time to get over there and submit an entry!

Cheers.

I don't have any pics of the Star Phantom getting his head blown off, I can take some if you want to see it but the ones in the collage basically show all there is to see.
