I need a new wallpaper, and I'd like it to contain Space Marines fighting for the Throne of the God Emperor of Mankind. Or something equally valiant and honorable.

Again, I'd be really thankful to those who'll help me

I presume that's Sanguinius there laying in front of the Emperor?

You presume correct.

In front of Horus, yes.

Between them, then.

I've been cycling through these new Black Templar images.

(I'm especially fond of the Necron-pwning one

)

IIRC it's the Necrons doing the PWNing there if I remember the fluff right.

Dunno, the Land Raider would make things ever so slightly difficult for them.

Dare I say close air support?

Dude! That Sword Brother is all up in that wraith's face, yo.

Sword Brother: Yo, foo. Represent.

what's meaning of the eye symbol on both Horus' and Sanguinius' armor and the wall next to them (behind from the viewer POV).

It's a Chaos symbol; however, in that case, it most definitely shouldn't be on Sanguinius' armour, so I'm not sure...

You mean the one that has a Destroyer blasting straight through it?

That' not an eye on Sanguinuis's armour, its a sylized drop of blood.

Sure looks like a damn eye... additionally, on his belt, and on his shoulder plate? Don't know about that... one would think they'd have used the ordinary Blood Angels symbols.

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2005-11-21 06:48pm

The blood drops are thicker at the bottom and thinner at the top. Look closely and you'll see wings surrounding the blood drops like a wreath.

It makes sense that the Primarch's personal symbol would be very similar to the Chapter's, but different.

No, the other one.

That should work.

Yeah, that one's a classic. That is to say, old. But still good.

Unfortunately that same marine should really be looking behind him.

Also any normal versions of the Kitty pic? (Without the Kitten heads)
