After seeing this particular artwork, I think I now know where the hulking armoured champions of Chaos in Games Workshop’s Warhammer Fantasy Battles might have been inspired by.之后,看到这特别的作品,我认为现在我知道那里膨胀装甲冠军的混乱,在游戏中讲习班的战锤奇幻的战斗可能已经灵感。

While there are definitely many similarities between the two artworks, I list below the most significant ones.虽然有许多相似之处,肯定两国之间的艺术品,我下面的列表中最显着的。
- Both the Death Dealer and Karrig Sturn have sturdy warhorses (although the hind legs of Karrig’s mount seems to be buckling due to the combined weight of both its master and its own armour) in almost similiar poses with bowed heads and gaping mouths双方的死亡经销商和karrig sturn有坚固的warhorses (虽然后腿的karrig的山似乎是屈曲由于合并重量都,其船长和自己的盔甲)在几乎类似的构成与鞠躬元首和巨大的嘴巴
- Both warriors are wielding vicious axes singlehandedly with their swords still in their scabbards.无论是勇士挥舞斧头的恶性singlehandedly与他们交锋,仍然在他们的scabbards 。 They also seem to be staring straight at the viewer but the Death Dealer seems more menacing due to his glowing red eyes.他们也似乎是凝视直在查看,但死亡的交易商似乎更来势由于他光辉的红眼睛是雪亮的。
