For some reason I thought somone would misunderstand.
Thanks for the compliment, however, they are both the one I did. Two different scans to show you how disgusting the lighting is for the original.

I think she's referring to the style of art. 40k art at the moment in 4th edition is quite.. gothic, and ornate. Back in second edition, the art was more cartoony.

yay! I am actually glad I was wrong. Thank you for clarifying. Upon a second look, I found that to be true. SORRY!

I prefer that old cartoony style, myself. Although I suppose they don't want their game being all kiddy. They want it dark and gruesome. So they changed.

Ah well, I still like the old art style.

I think the 4th edition art style is cool as I'm not a big anime or cartoon fan.

Hmmm... Do you know where I can find some example of earlier art? I know of a great website for more or less current Warhammer art, but not the earlier stuff.

A choice drawing my friend.

This is an example from my signature art shop. In fact, it's my only example, as I got lazy and didn't make any more, and no one bought any. crying Anyway, it's real crap, as that I wasn't putting that much effort into it, but I like it anyway.

Advise? I've been drawing marines ever since i laid eyes on the old 40k box, with the blood angels blasting at orks. Use models as referance, They are the most realistic referance you can get. Make sure that you make the guns big, and the limbs bigger. Another thing, you will NEVER see a space marine standing with his legs together. There is like three feet between their heels at all times. Another thing. Don't draw chest eagles yet, stick with simple skulls and power cables. THEN move up to eagle motifs. Marines are barrel-chested individuals, their torso is essentially a cylinder with a large shell on the top. Ever seen the torsos in the Concept art area of the gw site? That's what they are. Examine them, and you'll never foul up a torso on a marine drawing ever. http://us.games-workshop.com/games/40k/spacemarines/extras/conceptart/default.htm


As for the bolter, the 2nd edition is easy to draw, and looks awesome. Try that, don't put any doodads on it, just draw the boxy bolter, and make it big. the bullets that come out of a bolter are the size of a ten guage shotgun shell, but the ones on the marines i draw have to be closer to softballs. it looks better that way, when you can fit your fist in the barrel.  

[Xenos Mortium]

The original drawing for that was smaller than the image on the computer, and I was drawing from memory. And I wasn't too concerned about detail or even good looks or accuracy or anything, I was just making an example. But thank you for the help and advice anyway.

Here's a dreadnought I drew, with no reference model, and editted with MS paint in the later stages.
