One of the classic artists from the RT days has been uploading his old artwork from the 80s. Classic images from Rogue Trader, the Compendium, Compilation and Realms of Chaos.

I can't guess the story behind that piece, the Inquisitor's expression is one thing, but what of the guy face palming in the background? I've seen this art before, nice to have a copy now.

This art is really creepy.

I like it.

Love how the orkz look like they're from punk rock album covers.

Some are a real blast from the past. Even better are the ones I've never seen before.

Some good pieces in there. I loved the RT days. Such a different feel to the game.

Marneus Calgar is referred to as "one of the Imperium's greatest tacticians" and he treats the Codex like it's the War Bible. If the Codex is garbage, then how bad is everyone else?

Long before I started playing 40K properly I had the second edition starter box, and I used to just love looking at the artwork in the books you got with that such as the Codex Imperialis. These pictures of utterly insane and twisted looking characters and other crazy stuff like ships with whole cities on their backs were just presented without comment and you had to use your imagination to try and interpret what you were seeing. You really got a sense that in the Imperium everything was so off the wall that these weird spectacles were just part of everyday life.

Driven away from WH40K by rules bloat and the expense of keeping up, now interested in smaller model count games and anything with nifty mechanics.
