Artist's Comments

At the short-lived war at Geredith, while heavily armed and armored Wraith units pinned the majority of Imperial Guard and Space Marine defenders in massive engagements, aspect warriors infiltrated the belly of Fortress of St. Marko, silencing guns, cutting off reinforcements, and placing webway portals.

Here, a lone Banshee warrior cuts her way through an Iron Knight marine and a squad of Jormungadian Jaegers, with a racially typical arrogant statement.

I'll probably keep touching this up for quite a while.

Wow; damn good piece! I love the work on the main figure; Unfortunately the rest of the piece lets it down somewhat; it feels like the background was a little bit rushed (the marines seem technically inept and they are also in quite funny positions). Good use of blurring/focus to get that sense of movement, but the stiffness of the figure sort of cancels the effect out. I only say this in the nature of constructive criticism btw :D On the plus side your attention to lighting and details is excellent!

I Like the movement in this but I must say the Space Marine seems kind of unnatural in his death position. I also come to wonder how a lone Banshee actually manage to take down 4 Imperial Guardsmen And a Space Marine. I do like how the detail in the foreground emphasises the main subject

Simply awesome. The background could use work but the banshee is amaing, makes me want to paint one of mine just like that.

Odsblood that's awesome. Although oddly, her pistol seems to be unloaded. Also she seems too... Angular. Like all her joints are posed *just so* instead of flowing and in motion.

Love the quote though, mind if I steal it for Endgame?

I don't draw. I write. I am also firmly in favour of relative morality, and a major Warhammer fan.

I think the coolest part about this pic is the color and decals on the Banshee's armor. I'd have to look again to be sure but this is one of if not the coolest Warhammer pictures I've seen here on DA.
