The Space Wolves blog has bribed the talents of Nachomon (aka: Nacho Fernandez) for a new set of banners and on site artwork.As you can see, I've made some changes already and with more artwork on the way, we can dodge the 'cease and desist' bullet from Games Workshop for using so many of their official images before it comes.
I've known Nacho since starting FIREBASE magazine and shortly after persuading him to become one of our regular artists.
Since then (2006) his art has gone from strength to strength and he has pursued his trade as a professional illustrator with passion, skill and a crisp, clean style that makes his work instantly recognisable.
Nacho was also there to give me some pointers during the early days of the Space Wolves blog, back when the forthcoming Space Wolves Codex was merely a rumour.
As you can see (left) his latest batch of Warhammer 40K art is spectacular -combining his own unique comic book styling with the more gritty aspects of the 41st Millenium.
I can't wait to see what he produces for the Space Wolves blog.
In the meantime, keep your fingers crossed for some amazing Space Wolf wallpapers!

I was going to ask who did those. I thought Adam was the mastermind behind it but I am proven wrong. Absolutely superb artwork and really brings out the blog. Awosme, keep up the good work :D

Love his work and my favorite has to to be his Imperial Guard Monkey. His work really adds a lot of flavor to the blog. Very cool.

That sure brings back memories.
I asked him to do a monkey for FIREBASE (there was a bit of a random monkey theme going on at one time) and off the back of that he drew the Space Marine Gorilla.
He's got a great imagination.

I have a completely different aesthetic from Nachomon, but if you like stuff like this, I'll gladly collaborate with the blog :)
