Codex Mordia

Wed May 20, 2009, 10:50 AM
i have been looking through some of my old stuff and discovered, to my satisfaction, my recent work had improve in terms of linework, perspective and anatomy and the best thing is now i can draw without paying too much attention to references and such. which is good

ok, another thing. this semester will soon come to an end, i will still be busy but now i have settle down, manage my time around and living comfortably and all. so i will have time as usual to draw sci fi stuff and as my watcher will know, i only draw imperial guard stuff from warhammer 40,000.

there is a serious lack of fluff and illustration from the staff itself when it comes to imperial guard. more background material will be great to have in such broad and diverse army. my next plan, if it is not changed, will be to do my own codex on mordian iron guard. sounds daunting and i might get into trouble with gw but i think it is high time the mordian get a full codex treatment of their own. from the mini soldier sketches to the campaign/theatre fluff as well as famous character from their organization. even the outfits and armament need to have "imperial armor" standard kind of wealth in terms of info.

those who are in favor say aye ^^

and we shall do this together. everyone feeling the same as i am are welcome to join. the task is to research on the subject (mordian iron guard) and distribute material (from sketches to references to fluff to stories) so that we can produce a quality codex done by ourself.

it's epic. and if it is successful (even a few pages) the codex can be expanded to put in other armies such as tanith ghost, elysian droptroop, harakoni warhawk, valhallan, krieg, armageddon, vostroyan and much...

Sounds good; it's always bugged me how the various IG armies were always somewhat ignored, while cookie-cutter Space Marine Chapters are getting their own Codices.

I always assumed it was because the only people that cared about the SPESS MEHREENS in a serious manner were Games Workshop themselves. :p

That would be something. It peeves me that they took out the doctrines in the new IG codex - I personally would have loved fielding a Tanith force had there been plastic kits for them!

Yeah, Canada is the next world superpower. It's just waiting for the world to realise that fact.

Welcome to the reality of Aquila Chapter: Man's last, best hope against the Abyss.
