Fantastic artwork, impressively faithful to GW canon, incredible details.
On the flop side, it is too shiny, to the point of being museum pieces, not reflecting anything believably actual - with the exception of the hydra.
Great inspiration for P&M anyway.
Thanks for sharing! :)

Beautiful - I have just got a copy of this game - dreading the amount of hours I will lose to P&M!

Thanks for posting.

Wow! I have to purchase that game!
I'll have to buy a new pc too.....

About the illustrations, they are superb.
Only criticism: Morathi arms seems a little bit too musclar.
I particularly like Malekith and the female Dreadlady

Daddy Likes.

I think they do them jusice. I also like some of the videos of the hydra. How the necks jerk around and the forked tongues come in and out.

Are these actual renders from the game, or from some pre-production artwork?

If the actual in-game models are anything like this, I can't wait for someone to develop a tool to extract them so that they can be loaded into a 3D rendering program - just think of the cool art you could create that way! :)
