Content We Liked - January 17, 2022

Although it’s a big internet out there, the Warhammer digital universe is pretty small and spread out. In Content We Liked, we take a look at the articles, videos, podcasts, and products that caught our eyes or were noteworthy during the prior week you might have missed.

On the Internet At Large

Meg's Amazing Banner @MiniPainterMeg via Twitter Meg's done an amazing job on this banner, and the way she's painted texture into it to give it a woven/cloth look is just wonderful. Great stuff.

Fletcher's Insanely Cool Chaos Marine @fletchers_painting via Instagram I'm not normally a fan of third party attempts to replicate the CSM aesthetic, but Fletcher has done such an amazing job here that I don't care. Just stunning work, top-to-bottom.

A Death Company Sergeant @Cetrahead via Twitter This Death Company sergeant looks fantastic, and the coloring work on the face is top-knotch.

A converted Tzeentch sorcerer @snotling_Discot1 via Twitter I'm not sure Nurgle would approve of this conversion but it looks fantastic. So much so that I initially swore this had to be a Louise Sugden model. Looks fantastic.

Stray Cats Save Osaka Restaurant Spoon and Tomago Blog This is a heartwarming story about a struggling restaurant, stray cats, and model trains. What more could you ask for?

Adrian's Imperial Militia troops @adrianboegner via Twitter Adrian's been doing a ton of interesting work with converted Genestealer Cults.

The Journey of Laeriel Deman'Go @lilFernanda_Art via Twitter This is some neat fanart of an Eldar Shadowseer throughout the many stages of her life's journey.

A Death Company Dreadnought u/forumdestroyer156 via Reddit One minute this person is asking for advice on blood effects, next thing they post this. Great work!

Bastian Carthalos Ready to Rumble @marwinlasurardi via Twitter This is a phenomenal Bastian, made even better by the crisp, cold color scheme. Great stuff.
