Rest in peace, John Blanche
The father of Warhammer 40k art direction and the man that has inspired me as an artist, down to inspiring my current artstyle (and I am sure will continue to inspire me, even in death). 40k just wouldn't be 40k had it not been for the foundation of grimdark sci-fi that he laid.
Farewell, you absolute legend.
More Fulgrim Moments (tm) from the Heresy
Shredding chicken like haha yes rip and tear until it’s done >:D
easy there Khârn
all who follow must witness your great work
The problem with writing loyalist space marines is that a lot of them follow the Codex Astartes. And this is fine in theory, except for that as far as I can tell the Codex Astartes contains two kinds of information:
A. That which is readily apparent by looking at standard figurines, or reading about chains of command and,
B. You shall be my angels of death, charged with juggling especially ignorant babies. Honorly honor forth without doubt, fear, emotional intelligence, or rules of engagement except when there are some of those. In those times, be annoying about the rules as they are your duty but inconsistently ignore them otherwise. Duty is paramount, ponder it, but not for more than a page and a half without shanking a bitch sloppy style. Then you may get back to pondering. When the enemy does one thing, you shall do this other thing but make it a war crime. I decree that sometimes, you may ride a motorcycle and it will be sick as hell. Descend upon undefined bad things, my late-night taco farts of preemptive retribution. My surprise tool that helps us later. My good good boys. May your glory inspire puny mortalpeople for a thousand wousand million zwillion years. No homo.

The purest expression of being a Warhammer fan
Actually, fuck it. You know what? This is my job and I gets to be stupid about it. You are stuck here with me.
Primarch, and their opinion about tax/tax season.
Horus: Tought that like. Tax happened to other people. He was his dad favorite lil guy! You wouldn't tax a lil guy like him, right?? Was eventually hit wih many years of late fees and unpaid taxes, and the fallout that ensued may have helped in the start of the heresy.
Sanguinius: His forms are always, always flawless. Not a mistake in sight. What people don't see is the absolute panicked meltdown that those forms create evey years. By the end he's a disshevelled mess and his room is covered in feathers, tears and blood, but the forms are done.
Vulkan: Give a good, honest try every year. Somehow always end up with a small return, wich makes him very happy. He actually has been making small mistakes about it, but it's within he margin of errors and the Tax Organisation gives it to him anyway.
Perturabo: Libertarian. Refuse to give taxes to the Imperium, insist he has a provincial local systhem that work beter and that HE can manage the expense for his legions through it. Forrix had almost a mental breakdown trying to fill it.
Fulgrim: Super torn. On one hand, he UNDERSTAND why tax are important. On the other hand... What's a little creative accounting? Some light embezzelling? Surely this won't blow up in his face, right?
Ferrus: Did not know that tax were a thing until Fulgrim told him. Asked him if he could do them for his legions, and his boyfriend accepted. He pays him back by spending a few days a year with him. In bed. He LOVE tax season.
Jaghatai: Does his taxes, but grumble every years that they are VERY frustrating for not accepting horses as a valid payment form! He even offered to give extra, if they just let him pay in damn horses! The conversion rate gives him headaches. Somehow always just shy of being late.
Alpharius & Omegon: win at taxes. Somehow get a returns that is bigger than their entire spending and earning combined for a year. They just hacked into the systhem and gave it to themself. They are not ready for the Horrors that will soon follow (a full audit).
Magnus: Insist that divination is a valid way to get to your tax statement. When it was refused, tried numerology. His forms spontanuously combusted when completed. He then makes Ahriman do it.
Mortarion: tried the first year to pay in a percentage of a grain harvest. It was refused, and he threw quite a big tantrum. Make the process as long and as painful as possible for whichever poor soul is sent to talk about his tax with him. Contest everything.
Rogal: Oh he fill them so, so good. Actually enjoy the process, it pleass his brain so fucking much. Fuck yeah, give him more tax papers baby! Sometime, if he's feeling spicy, he will intentionally put in a mistakes to see if the tax agents catch it. One time they even sent him extra forms to fill once it was spotted, and he was shaking in excitment.
Angron: All tax forms of the WE are redirected to Lotara. She send them back with a red scribles "FUCK OFF" and a pile of teeth. It's marked as paid.
Lorgar: Does his tax very well! On time and everything!! But his papers keep having the most unlucky bullshit happen to them. One time they were literally dropped in a lake. Constantly has to redo them, and its stressing him out!!! The chaos god are in full effect to garante that hr never has an easy tax return.
Leman: is "conveniently" unreachable every tax season. Constantly on the move in random corner of the galaxy for it, and laugh nervously when tax are mentioned. Actually does not know what tax are and at this point he's too afraid to ask.
Konrad: Insist that he made proper payment, and that his tax are ABSOLUTELY exact, without a single fault or flaw, because that would be a Crime. The fact that he paid in humans skins and organs, corresponding to their exact monetary value, is disturbing.
Lion: Stare at the paper. Stare at whoever gave him the paper. Make a simple grunting noise, and slides all the paper toward Luther. This was the start of the deterioration of their relationship.
Corvus: Tax are good. Tax are greats. She love and respect an equal tax burden, and will publically respect a good tax burden. In private tho, she bitch and moan about her tax funding things she hates. Daydream about witholding them, but never do so.
... And Roboute: The one that instaured the tax systhem in the first place. Know every single rules, regulation, and how exactly to break them. Unwilling to admit that the entire database is staying on a house of card that are 3 excel sheets. He has one machnicus guy keeping it alive.
Bonus round:
Malcador: Has been doing the tax for Terra, some-fucking-how. He actually just imput bullshit numbers and people assume that he did the calculation correctly, because there is no way that they are doing the 3 millions page audit.
Emp: has not paid his taxes since the time he was a simple copper merchant who DEFFINITLY was selling quality goods and totally didn't burn down his house to hide the evidence. Rob is on the case tho, and the Emperor is starting to get nervous...
no wait this is such a coincidence bc i was just conceptualizing this exact scenario:for the last 10k years guilliman didn't have to pay taxes bc he was legally a corpse, right? but then he resurrects. and going from a corpse back to a living person legally proves he wasn't actually fully dead those past 10 millennia. which means, according to the very tax laws HE HIMSELF WROTE, he was liable for taxes this whole time. but he didn't pay them. AND he never filed for a tax exemption.
so Roboute Guilliman the lord of Ultramar himself has been committing tax evasion by playing possum for 10,000 years straight, and the accumulated late fees and fines over a literal eon mean the absolute second he woke up he was instantly and utterly bankrupt😋
And one day, just like that, preferring to watch the world burn than go to therapy, Konrad Curze, the Night Stalker, primarch of the 8th Legion of the Night Lords, stood up and said...
Aaaaahhh Damnit Curze 😞
I've been thinking about what the absolute most grimdark way to torture Guilliman would be, and i think i finally cracked it.
Imagine this guy. rational, brave, an independent thinker, brilliant and erudite. He is fiercely against the theocracy and all its superstition. so, as his first shot fired against the corrupt dogma of the ecclesiarchy, he writes a biography of Guilliman. He pieces together every scrap of fragmented historical material he can find, desperately trying to strip away the saint, the demigod, the son of god, and reconstruct him as a historical figure. a real, flesh-and-blood human being.
His work starts circulating in the underground scene, and somehow, against all odds, a copy makes its way into Guilliman's own hands.
And Guilliman is profoundly shaken. Because the book captures him perfectly. it sees his monumental achievements, but it also calls out his flaws, and the author managed to deduce all of this despite the suffocating censorship of the 41st millennium. Guilliman is desperate to meet this author. He needs someone like this—someone who has managed to stay so incredibly lucid and sharp in this era. someone who actually, truly understands him.
He tracks down the author's identity and goes to meet him.
And then it happens.
This rational, brave, independently thinking, brilliant scholar takes one look at guilliman and is instantly, utterly crushed by the primarch aura.
He drops to his knees, sobbing hysterically, shaking all over, repenting for his past ignorance and arrogance. he used to doubt the Emperor's divinity, but now, seeing the son of the God-emperor standing right in front of him, he realizes how incredibly wrong he was. If the Emperor isn't a god, how could he have forged such a transcendent primarch? How dare he ever perceive him as a mere mortal who laughs and weeps? The absolute blasphemy of it!
He curses everything he ever wrote. He begs for forgiveness, swearing that if the great, holy, immaculate, and sinless son of god spares him, he will dedicate the rest of his life exclusively to singing hymns and writing psalms for the god-emperor and his son.
And Guilliman just stands there.
Watching this man tear his own masterpiece, the Biography of Roboute Guilliman, to shreds. Watching him kneel in the scattered fragments of his own ruined rationality, and start to chant.
My favorite topic is "Dante and the endless increase in the retirement age." (c) or "how to drive the Commander crazy in 2 seconds."
Got a new book coming out in a month! It's got ghosts, a dog, and a little man made out of paper...

Hi I was wondering if you have any Guilliman or Thiel or both together? cause your art of them both are very amazing duvu
Here are Guilliman and Thiel as Border Collies!This isn't my own art; it's a commission I got from a fantastic artist. I'm just so happy to have the chance to share it here!
my review of the first 3 horus heresy books
As I remind everyone of
Horus Lupercal's canonical breeding kink
once more, I would like to add that this is why you should read the books. I cannot emphasize enough the amount of insane shit that gets casually slipped into 40k books on a regular basis. I have seen Ferrus Manus freeball in goddamn power armor. I have watched assorted primarchs chase Konrad Curze around Macragge like Wile. E. Coyote chases the Roadrunner. One of my favorite passages features a group of Ultramarines pause in the middle of a T'au weapons testing course to argue over helmets. I have not read the book, but I know for a fact that there's a book out there where an ork debates gender with humans, I have read the fucking excerpt. 40k books are amazing.
For the curious afaik the books (with authors when I can remember them)are:
Fulgrim, by Graham McNeil (who has many such instances)
The Unremembered Empire, by Dan Abnett (I think) + technically a few books before and after?
While I can't remember the book, it's the one set in Damocles Gulf
Ghazkull Thraka, Prophet of the Waaaagh!
Blades of Damocles for the third one. Yes, you got all of them right!
Other highlights from the books/short stories that I’ve read:
Cato Sicarius storming straight from the medicar tank to the armory…without ever getting dressed
Black Templar catches his human buddy post-sex, proceeds to mercilessly roast him
Roboute Guilliman: emotional support primarch
”This is fine.”
Flaying as a metaphor for queerness…and it’s done so well that you’ll be cheering on the bloodbath by the end
”Ypu got us box seats to a coup.”
Lelith Hesperax outfucks an entire Commoraghan brothel
More novel hilarity:
A steamy Imperial romance novel titled: "My Wish to Generate Children with You is Only Exceeded by My Devotion to Him" (it's set on "the paradise world of Krieg") (Carrion Throne).
Dark Angel apothecary helps deliver a baby, then freaks out about holding the baby and hurriedly pushes it at the company's Librarian, who is used to dealing with unnatural things like daemons and by extension infants (Eye of Ezekiel).
The secret code to the Emperor's genetic laboratory where the primarchs were created is 'shave and a haircut, two bits' (Deliverance Lost).
Contrary to popular belief, ork vehicles do have brakes: when you step on the brake pedal, it pushes a stick against the ground (Ghostmaker).
“I haven’t lost an arm, brother. It’s right over there." (Rynn's World)
The Ultramarines' warcry is: "We march for Macragge!" In zero gravity, one changed it to "We float for Macragge" (Pharos).
'Arbitrator Foreboding' is a popular fictional holo-character in Imperial media; he fight criminals, heretics and mutants with a very big gun (and is of course inspired by Judge Dredd) (The Traitor's Hand).
Space Marines in power armour, particularly Terminators, are so heavy they'll occasionally fall through a weak floor (you haven't heard an Astartes curse until that happens) (Master of Sanctity).
Konrad Curze taking great care to counter the built-in teleporter of Vulkan's thunderhammer, Dawnbringer, to prevent Vulkan's escape. Konrad just forgot one thing... "It's also a hammer." Promptly gets smacked in the face.
Three Space Wolves go on a pub crawl on Holy Terra, end up in a bar fight hitting their attackers with ale tankards, turkey drumsticks, and a roast pork, and then run away from the arbites so they won't shame their Chapter by getting arrested for drunken brawling (Wolfblade).
konrad in imperium secundus is just non-stop yakety sax
Don't leave this in the tags.
