Description He stared through the glass, his lined face superimposed over Sanguinius’ ageless mask of gold. The two were a near match, for Dante had taken after his sire closely during the Blood Change. He blinked as Sanguinius’ golden mask never could. The primarch’s mouth remained open in a howl of righteous fury. It was such a shame, Dante thought, that this most thoughtful and dutiful of the Emperor’s sons should be remembered by this image of wrath. There were thousands of representations of Sanguinius throughout the Blood Angels fleet and their fortress-monastery on Baal, but this was the one most knew, a roaring fury descending from the heavens to mete out death and spill blood.
If only there were space for his gene-father’s gentler nature to be celebrated. If only there were not such an endless need for battle.

- Dante by Guy Haley

Commander Dante, sometimes called the "Lord of Angels" and "Bringer of Sanguinius' Light", is the current Chapter Master of the Blood Angels Space Marines Chapter, and has been the Chapter Master for 1,100 standard years. He is believed to be the oldest living Loyalist Space Marine as he is currently over 1,500 standard years old, with the exception of those Space Marines sustained by the cybernetic technology of Dreadnoughts, the use of temporal stasis or other technological means of extending human life. Lord Commander Dante's exact age is unknown, but is approximately 1,547 Terran years.

An old man by Space Marine standards. And certainly by Blood Angels.

Grim pic that intense in its feel of melancholy.

Quite a lot of the Primarchs must be very oddly remembered in the Imperium in these dark times. Magnus the Red was a sympathetic, if flawed, figure, and Leman Russ was nastier than many a fan (or Imperial citizen) might have suspected. As for Sanguinius, one can see signs all over the place.
The Sanguinala is a great day in the Imperium, and the Emperor certainly loved his Winged Angel as a son, but what will become of the Memory of the Blood Angels once the Black Rage finally overcomes them all?

Great work, I'll admit that originally judging by the thumbnail initally I thought it was a drawing of blood omen Kain, certainly like the symbolic red.

The mask reminds me a bit of Dagoth Ur! Beautifully rendered, this is. I'm not familiar with the author but I'm positive he'd be thrilled to see this wonderful piece 😁
