"You really don’t want to find the limits of my forgiveness, Che’Moer."

Even someone as spoiled by fate as Cher has rules he can’t break without paying the price.

Continuing with the Monarchia theme: this time I brought you a family portrait of Aniha and her ex, along with their little son Valar :) They had a whole story going on before Maz’Raek came into the picture.

Aniha and Saeed stand in front of a softly blurred background of trees and buildings, holding hands. Her cheek rests against his chest, while their son, Valar, sits on the man's arm with a toy orange lion on his lap. Their figures are lit from behind by the warm light of the sun.

- See that one there? It's called “The Thinkworm”, reminds me of you.
- Did you just make that up?
- Yes, but tell me it doesn’t fit.

Lorgar and Kor Phaeron walking down the hallway of one of the Monarchia's temples, having a pleasant (?) chat.

My piece for this year's fandom kombat :з

Lorgar and Kor Phaeron walk down the hallway of one of the Monarchia’s temples: rays of bright sunlight spill in from the side, and branches of trees with white doves sitting on them are visible here and there. The floor is covered with leaves fallen from these branches. Both characters are having a conversation, mostly with Kor Phaeron speaking. At the top of the illustration there’s an image of a black snake devouring a white dove with a halo.

Yeah, I really liked their design too — the client showed me lots of cool armor and weapon concepts, and they looked super detailed and original!

Let’s kick off the comeback with a banger for Baronofcaring on tumblr! This is probably my most ambitious comm so far, i love it :D

A battle scene between an original SM chapter and chaos possessed. Missiles streak across the sky, explosions thunder, the battlefield is littered with craters and fallen astartes. In the center, a Space Marine named Sicarius fires a pink melta shot at a chaos warrior running toward him, blasting off his wing.

Deborgant’s co-author is holding the artist hostage and won’t let them have peace :')

Indeed :) One of Raziel’s most obvious negative traits is his inability to let go of pain and resentment. At some point, it starts to seem like he has nothing else besides those feelings.

I usually struggle with drawing metaphorical stuff, but my co-writer keeps pushing me to try :)

My soul was craving Migrazh, unarmored, resting in the gardens of Nurgle, and I decided not to resist :)

Oh these moments when a huge beast coated in blood crashes into your office!

Raziel feels genuinely happy when an old friend - who used to love throwing punches - comes back to the echoes of his past self. And there's nothing left to do but just smile.

And thank you :D I often get carried away ahah

So Raziel’s life isn’t exactly easy - everyone’s trying to get rid of him so he won’t be a problem :) Usual WB politics.

Deborgant @deborgant.bsky.social · May 1

Actually, Raziel is deeply opposed to both of them and prefers Lorgar’s teachings insread. He doesn’t go around shouting about it, of course, but the other apostles are sharp enough to spot a rat in their ranks. >

I honestly find it pretty funny how often people mix up Raziel with Erebus :D And I'm ABSOLUTELY sure the apostle himself would be super pissed about those comparisons, haha.

Raziel stands against a stone wall, where a painted portrait of Erebus hangs. On his face is a red target, surrounded by throwing daggers, none of which have hit him in the forehead. Raziel touches the painting with his hand and says, "I cannot fathom how fools dare to see any likeness between me and that wretch!"

Despite your differences with the guest, never forget about the norms of hospitality!

Migrazh and Raziel are sitting at a lavishly set table, celebrating the temporary alliance of their warbands. On the red velvet tablecloth, there are candles, plates of pheasants, salads, fruits, and more. Raziel is holding a glass of wine and making a toast, while Migrazh hasn’t picked up his glass. A centipede crawls out from under his bio-punk 'clothing,' munching on a lonely leaf of lettuce on his plate. Raziel's plate is filled with the bones of the pheasants he’s eaten.

Phantom pain.

In the center of the illustration, Che'Moer is lying on a bed, holding his chest in pain with one hand. His eyes are closed, and purple ghostly hands are scratching at his body. On the left is a flashback memory showing how a chainsword tears through his insides. On the right are broken bones with a glowing point in the center. Both images are a bit abstract and show what exactly is causing the character's phantom pain.

Just a cozy drawing with Maz'Raek and Hanur :)

Lately, I've been feeling really down, so I decided to spend a couple of days on this cute art.

Don't worry, it's not easy to get Migrazh riled up. The most he’ll do is chase the cat off the ship with a broom :)

Thank you :3
I really like hive minds, they're very interesting to write about!

Deborgant @deborgant.bsky.social · Mar 27

Migrazh is the main host, giving life to the parasitic insects, and all the space marines who let them in did so voluntarily.

Fun fact about Migrazh: he’s merged with his warband into a single being, forming a biopunk hive mind held together by centipedes!
So, when Che'Moer visits the Last Breath Guardian's ship, he’s surrounded by one big admirer! :)

Honestly, I’m not really happy with how these pages turned out. There are a lot of mistakes because I was pretty tired when I drew them, sigh.
