It is Thanksgiving week in Ameraland. In tandem with @holylustration ’s Dopamine Week, I would like to propose a Giving Thanks week 💖
Send, asks anon or not, telling your fellow rogue traders how much you appreciate what they bring to the space!
and
Reblog this post with a shout-out to your favorite piece of Rouge Trader art. Let’s daisy chain all the amazing things the Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader space has created!
Favorite is unfair - there’s so much gorgeous art to go around!
In honor of *you* Finn, one piece of art that I really loved was @sanzosin’s take on Lilith! She looks so effortless cool and chic.
Thank you so much Fran for the kind words, and also to Finn for starting such a lovely chain! The RT community has been nothing but welcoming and you are all so immensely talented and inspiring in so many ways 🤍✨
It’s hard to choose a single piece of @nananarc’s art to nominate because they are all so beautiful, but I truly do love this piece; it is so ethereal and stunning, and captures the warm tenderness of Heinrix’s romance perfectly.
To add onto all the amazing pieces previously posted, while I absolutely can never pick a favorite in this insanely talented fandom, I want to highlight @maggotknight both for making this post as well as her absolutely STUNNING, textured style that often looks like it could be official Owlcat cut scene artwork.
As an example, but no where near exhaustive showcase, check out this work for the Rogue Trader Gift Exchange!
And since I’ve mentioned it, I want to shout out @jaal-ama-daravv for organizing said Gift Exchange and generally doing a lot of behind the scenes community work. Not only is Jaal one of THE most organized, competent and patient individuals (and I’d trust no one more to be in charge of this) she also does art and writes fics, does video edits and just about everything else you can imagine. A true multitalent.
OH VOSS. I’m gonna cry. Thank you so much. I truly cherish you
I couldn’t agree more! Shout out not only to Finn, and Jaal for organising the RT gift exchange, but to another massively talented artist, @thatzombiecat. Since she’s just working on a killer painting for me I can’t wait to share with the world, I must highlight her amzing work of my favourite man - Heinrix van Calox.
Brace yourselves for this longread is gonna be loooooooong!! (I’m really sorry for the gargantuan sized post this about to become, jamming this all in one, BUT I have to)
For this Giving Thanks-Week I really want to extend my personal gratitude for everyone below.
