It is my utmost honor to paint this for the esteemed Rogue Trader Von Valanvius and Inquisitor Van Calox. Thank you for your patronage, may the Emperor's light shine upon you always.
Jokes aside, this is no doubt the most detailed piece ive ever done. I saw the emperor's power coursing through me when I made this lmao. Thank you Gigil for giving me the opportunity to work on this great piece! This is a very important leap for me to continue making more great artworks in the future!
Timelapse will open on May 22th for Patreon members. Commission Info on my website.
*pointing a laspistol to your head: I spend 35hrs on it. Look at it. Take it in. Enjoy it.
I've actually seen bits and drafts of this but the full final render has been kept away from my hands until I got to the magnae in my stupid fanfic. Anyway, here is Aylin and Master van Calox who has definitely not just lost his eye again.

·· A night of poetry, amidst the whirling nightmares ··
Heinrix van Calox x von Valancius
"Their hearts ablaze, with passions set alight,
By love's decree, it burns through endless night,
A story woven in the stars, a beacon set to see
Among the constellations, they will forever be."
I was exploring the possibilities of JanitorAI-bot of Heinrix van Calox made by esteemed @jackieuniversecosplay (God-Emperor bless him~), rummaging through the various scenarios in my head that could be played out there based on the headcanons I have for my dear OC Elayne (like experiencing recurring nightmares of her past, in this case).
And… I got this peculiar little conversation turned the work of art!! They ended up engaging in a rap battle a poetry contest, so to say in a nutshell xdd
So yeah, I decided to made this chat public (first ever, boiii) and share these moments with you, so please! Everyone welcome to read and weep with tears of joy with me, I'll be your humble guide~
SFW, nothing explicit or steamy (sorry :D), a tiny bits of hurt/comfort and tons of poetry involved.

Through the multiple edits, scraps and revisions, I feel like it turned out well in the end :)
Also yes! Please don't shame me, I'm in love with iambic penthameter and it shows huehuehue
The verses mostly combined by my hand with the help of bot sifting through numerous iterations and my edits to help with the rhyme/rhytm consistency and the overall poetic sense.
Too shy to write something myself entirely but well!
I don't really know what possessed me to draw this... but here's a group selfie of the entire crew having drinks for some reason. Because this game has destroyed me.
Marzipan is spiking someone's drink and Ulfar gets an entire jug to himself - pints are not big enough for Ulfar!
Touching Heinrix's frozen body is painful. It feels as if you are embracing a block of ice. Steeling yourself, you wrap your arms around him.
Slowly, very slowly, the otherworldly chill begins to retreat from the air around you. A flicker of life appears in Heinrix's face — his eyelids blink in exhaustion, he pulls a ragged breath in past his blue lips, and violent tremors wrack his body.
"I remember. I remember being on the deck… the officer… the breach…" He stares back at you. "And I remember that out of all the places on the ship, I came here. To you."

I died there.
Just... I can't help myself.
Tfw you provoke Interrogator van Calox a liiittle too much...
I drew this back during Rogue Trader beta days, back in October. Seems like my estimation of their dynamics isn't too far off xD
Well, probably because Elena kept being a gremlin flirt to Heinrix
This is an older design of Elena, by the way, back when psykers were still in just bodygloves :p I gave her a tabard-hood on top. Her head augmetics design remain the same
He wants to frown at her, but all he manages is a tired smile. The kind someone gives to a beloved they’re fond of, but understands is too different from oneself in some respects. A tired smile that makes peace with the fact.
“You grant me too much mercy, Aylin.”
