This is my first post here, thought I would share a Painting I am doing during my lunch hours.

I should mention I don't do this for a living its just for fun. This is not my usual genre but had a space itch I felt needed scratching. These are images of the process and the image is not yet finished I will post more when I have it. I hope you like it.


Initial sketch

Scanned into photoshop and working out perspective on hammer

Working out more of the forms

Trying to figure out flow of the image

Blocking in some values (black and white)

Quick colour test

Adding in backup

Start detailing

Add honour guard to the front to give the image more depth

My notes for correcting

The perspective on this need a little work

working out the light sources

First colour pass

Thunder hammer detail

Still more to do

And here he is finished

That was epic.

Thanks so much for that!

Wow!

That's amazing looking.

Impressive.

Very nice. His leading leg looks kind of strange though, like his foot isn't pointing in the same direction that his knee is. I also question the placement of the chaos space marine's bolter.
