Deep shit indeed! Though I think he'd put up a decent fight for a grunt.

What are his stats, his weapons' stats, the kinds of weapons he's carrying and the special rules about him?

I guess a Space Marine scout squad could easily defeat the squad the dude's a part of.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's probable that the Scouts could beat them, especially if the squad of cultists are separated from other Khorne units and are themselves assaulted. In my quick rules write-up there, I imagined the cultists to be like a kind of close-combat guardsmen that, if taken in adequate numbers and in support of better Khorne Chaos Space Marines, could be an effective cannon-fodder type of enemy. The Chaos player would have to use them correctly to achieve the best outcome though.

Why's he so fat? Also, nice user icon...Raiden jet ftw.

Why not fat? Just something interesting.
Raiden is good, aye.

I like this a lot more than the usual hypertrophic hulk-like khornite.
He is bluish, deformed, obviusly strong and wealthily equipped but still radiates a strong sense of humanity with his litte too weight and the unpaired set of weaponry.

Great comment, thanks. If I remember correctly, I wasn't interested in a frothing lunatic, so that definitely directed my design decisions, though a lot of it was unconscious, just playing with the shapes. I think s sense of humanity is nice to see in these kinds of illustrations, instead of lifeless shouting faces, so I'm glad you got that from this.

Thanks man, it's appreciated!

Truly awesome work, I love the whole sense of nobility and pride it has, it's nice to see the 'noble warrior' side of Khorne (as noble as he gets anyway). This is a really great character design.

Very nice! I love the subtle texture in this image, especially on the chest piece. It really adds a tactile feeling and pushes the realism of the materials shown. Keep up the good work!

Wow , That wouldn't look out of place in the imperial Armour books

Thanks mate, appreciated. Any compliment with the word subtle in it goes a long way

Hm. Subtle. I rather like it. None of this is sarcasm.

I know what you mean, thanks. I hate the WarCraft look...

So this is what happens when I go away for a year! I knew you were good, but Christ Phil, this is outrageous!! Well done man! great character concept, I can see all that animation power centre/line of action/pressing 'B' paying off, photoshop/colouring skills very superior! Or are you using some paint program?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL! Best comment right there. Indeed, pressing B was key. This was done in Photoshop, not fancy Painter. Glad you like!

Nice work. It's refreshing to see a suit of armor that doesn't look ridiculously ornate and impractical for a change.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks! Yes, I know what you mean. For some artists, ornate and impractical is the only way to make things look cool. To me that is a sign of a limited artist!

Not a big fan of Khorne but I like good art. Well done mate.

True again, lol. Honestly, I didn't look at the Tau for reference!

It is. And I didn't realise it until someone pointed it out to me after it was done, haha
