Description
A commission I recently finished out for Aethel from the FFG boards featuring the characters from her Warhammer Fantasy RPG group, a group of twisted dark elf (did I even need to say twisted?) siblings who are the second, third, and fourth born to the scion of House Blackheart.
This piece was an interesting and more challenging diversion from my usual commissions as not only did I have to come up with a great layout and interesting take on the characters presented to me, but, as it is a pen and paper game I didn't have any clear cut character designs already laid out for me. I feel it all worked out in the end though and really love the end results of this piece.
It, of course, had to have a tree in it. I haven't had a good excuse to paint a twisting barren tree in forever and couldn't let the opportunity pass me by.

Neat artwork! Evocative and with care given to details and colourwork. Given your deft hand at illustrating the brutality of Warhammer, you might be interested in knowing that Warhammer Fantasy have a community driven spiritual successor project under steam. Namely, The Ninth Age: www.the-ninth-age.com/
It is fully possible for previous Warhammer fanart to be submitted to T9A, and if their iconography doesn't constitute IP infringement they may well make it into full army books, full credits given. Obviously, such an ambitious project is always welcoming artists, for artwork is what makes or breaks a professional polished product. This is a chance to have one's fanart under an official stamp, and moreover to develop one's own styles for familiar archetypes.
Note that one has to post two comments on the forum before being allowed to upload images to the gallery (just post compliments in the army blog section or suchlike first if you would ever like to contribute).
Also, they've recently launched their first Art Contest, this time pitting Warriors of the Dark Gods against others: www.the-ninth-age.com/index.ph… Many more contests to follow in months and years to come if this catch on. Something for your talents and tastes, perhaps?
Just mentioning. In any case, great artwork! Have a good day.
