The picture depicts a Templar of Manann (God of the Sea) in combat with a Fimir. The Fimir are creatures of mist and darkness, who shun bright light. When they travel in daylight they are accompanied by these strange mists that they use to protect and hide themselves. The Templar has trailed this particular Fimir through the sewer systems of Marienburg, finally to be confronted just outside the sewer outlet. (For entertainment I put a Spawn type symbol on the Fimir’s belt – Little things please little minds!) This picture was designed and used for the cover of Issue 9, hence the vast expanse of mist in the bottom right of the picture and the spacious sky area (i.e. used for text). 0.5mm mech pencil. (Warpstone Issue 9)

Ohhh, I like it! You don't see many things to do with Fimir these days, I'm glad that someone still gives them a thought. Tip: Make more Fimir pictures...

That Fimir looks like he could be pretty vicious and feral!! Me likes!! That Templar better look out for that creature's tail! Ouch!!! 2 This is a very good Warhammer drawing. I love everything about it, especially the Fimir, and the breathtaking cityscape in the background. Keep up the good work, John.

I am not supposed to say this but, WOW! i live the way the fog is engulfing both of the combatants. I also love the way you use background in most of your works.

I've seen this picture in a White Dwarf magazine ! It is super ! Fimirs are the long forgotten deathquesters from the Old World, but they are not all gone... Soon they'll b back !!! (Check Games-Workshop's site.)
