Description Ye olde Typhus. I tried to avoid ichor and pus and shit and slime with this guy, and focus more on the fact that he's a living (?) hive of daemonic insects, which is why I tried to make his armour resemble a dried, cracked husk.

The scythe, for example, was inspired by the mandibles of a stag beetle. Also, notice the itsy bitsy legs coming out of his midriff.I especially like to imagine the legs of his shoulder-fly dangling with each step he takes.

Typhus is a present for Shamblin85's brother. Hope he likes it, my friend. All the best for you both.

Cheers, everyone.

Maybe dA should have a," love entire gallery option?" would save time while browsing this one definitely!

Not to my knowledge, but in some cases I think it's a matter of when rather than if.

Octavius Grim, for example, will most likely become a miniature. At least I hope so.

Thank you, mate

Really nice take on, Typhus!

I'm starting to feel like I'm just repeating myself every time I comment on your work, but it always is such a treat to see when you've concocted something. He definitely gives off a dried out look. And I like the inclusion of the insect like face under the pauldron.

This is seriously a very disturbing image of Nurgle's followers O_O

The stalks that protrude from the top of the armor gave me the impression that he was a tyranid XD

Of course there's room for improvement, but there's also a reason for you to improve: you're good at drawing, it's not a white lie, I was genuinely surprised by some of your art pieces.
