My personal favorite bad WD artist is the Simon Elsen. Background to these images, this guy had a friend who edited for WD, got his SoH army in a issue, and it's a trainwreck. I could go through every issue with this (I play Heresy, we a fucking rivet counters), but the major ones are:
- Full AoS models for HQs
- Painting them as SoH while saying they are early crusade (so they should be Luna Wolves)
- Making Razorbacks
- Making them SoH when he plays 40k and played them as Ultramarines
- Predator Annihilators before the retcon
The most aggregious is his use of Primaris. They asked him why, and he had the gall to say Alan Bligh; the lead designer behind Horus Heresy and a prominent contributor to Forge World as well as to the Deathwatch, Dark Heresy, and Rogue Trader RPGs back when they were pen and paper games, gave him permission to use Primaris Miniatures. Alan Bligh died before Primaris were announced.
My joy went to anger real quick while writing this, fuck this faggot.
