He looks like someone just knocked his flaggon over and is going to get a punch

Very nice, I look forward to seeing the both take to the battlefield.

Always happy to see Captain Tycho. Metal or Finecast?

 

I'm not 100% sure, but looking at the art style I reckon this wonderful piece is by Russ Nicholson.

Ah, they are including codices. I was thinking there are only 10 rulebooks and then thought well there were a few extras in 1st and 2nd edition I suppose and the chapter approved books for 3rd (but they didn't have great covers).

Nice Job.

You didn't want to wait around for the one with the ball gag?

Those are some sizable battles to be playing 2nd edition with

 
 

Some awesome looking squat art from the Rogue Trader rulebook, by Pete Knifton

Rogue Trader was different in quite a few ways to what we know as 40k these days (or even 20years ago), a lot of the fun faded out as it was sanitised over the years. It's a real shame, but GW is raking it so I doubt they regret their decision.

The Rogue Trader books are full of Space Marines getting absolutely destroyed, 2nd ed onwards they are portrayed as the heroes fighting evil so that largely disappeared.

 

Another piece of art from the Rogue Trader rulebook, I think he might be in need of an apothecary.

 

This awesome diorama was entered into Golden Demon back in the late 80's and feature in one of the Fantasy Miniatures books published by Games Workshop.

A other folks have mentioned it's Angron.

There were a bunch of sweet epic models for the demon primarchs and greater demons.

Well now I need to practice looking my Great Uncle Ian in the eye without chuckling.

 

And if anyone is interested there was a rather long chat with Adi over on the Crown of Command youtube channel recently.

No problem, glad you enjoyed it. His other videos are definitely worth a watch.

He describes it as basically snakes and ladders in the review, which in my experience is not too far off the truth.
