Letting go of part of our collection. Happy bidding!

In the dark and war-torn world of Warhammer, humankind is beset by danger from all sides. From the sewers and drains crawl the Ratmen, filthy beasts of fur and claw, killer, spreaders of disease: the Skaven! Long have they desired to destroy the people of the Old World, but even as their power waxes, most men remain blind to it.

It's magic to this insight into the workings of Blanche's mind as he is dreaming up the nightmares of the Inquisition.

This is absolutely filled worn some of the grimiest and greatest of the quintessential Blanche Warhammer ink and wash illustrations that birth some of the most iconic figures and so many I wish we had seen more of within 40K.

The sketchbook scrapbook presentation with Blanche's frenzied hand written notes and snippets printed lore for these creations and abominations makes the whole thing an integrated art piece that is about as close as any of us are going to get to watching the man himself do whatever profane rituals he does to create his art. It feels like you've stolen his notebook in the bed way.

Shout out to murder assassins and the explicit note about not all Imperial agents being male.

There is such a rich and awful life and story told by Blanche's characters and the weapons and ephemera all over them. Every figure in here feels like they have a full tragic backstory and build up the bizarre baroque horror of the Dark Millennium.

This floppy book is a collection of many sketches created by artist John Blanche as concept art for Games Workshop's game "Inquisitor". As the game involves relatively large and detailed miniatures, Blanche was given free reign to let his creativity wander. His art is very sketchy, gritty, and lurid, but appropriate for the subject matter of twisted cultists, half-machine technological priests, and zealous Inquisitorial agents. Many pages also include blurbs from Gav Thorpe of the production team describing a particular element of the Warhammer 40000 world, often revealing information never before released.
