Grey Seer

Novel cover artwork.
©Games Workshop; Black Library.

Acrylic, Approx 8.5" x 13.5".

Original artwork for sale; UK£600.

Thanquol the Grey Seer screeches the attack command as the Skaven swarm surges past him, led by the mighty rat ogre Boneripper.

I chose a low viewpoint to accentuate Thanquol's dominant character, and air of menace. The strong light source sheds an eerie green colour onto the scene, which in turn is deliberately contrasted with the main orange/red colour scheme to help pick the form of the figures out via the rim lighting.

Here are the details of the novel itself:

got any tips you can possibly share as to how you got the green to glow neon like? Cant seem to figure that out too well.

Yes! The much revered Grey Seer Thanquol goes forth again! You have done honour to this one of the most loved (well at least people know him...) of Black Library Characters. Great Job! :clap:

Glad you like it.
