Description

This was done as cover art for the upcoming novel "A Murder in Marienburg", written by David Bishop and published by Black Library, the science fiction /fantasy publishing arm of Games Workshop. The book is due out this summer.
The assignment: do an homage to Rembrandt's "Abraham and Isaac" set in the medieval world of Warhammer, with the sublime angel replaced by a murderous giant ninja rat. Could it get any better than that? Done with painter 9 and a wacom intuos. This image copyright 2007 Games Workshop.

Great work with light! The painting would gain from having a more defined background though.

Very nice colours and lightings. I found few anatomy issues though : the dead man's left arm is too short and he has a strangely slim leg down after the knee (even though it is partly hidden). The giant rat head is not convincing to me.
+7/9
