Here it is, our quarterly issue-themed contest. Seeing as how Issue 6 revolves around a Pre-Heresy theme, we decided why not have a contest in the same vein? However, when most people think “Pre-Heresy” they think Primarchs and the original 18 Legions, but there is so much more…
Rules: Create a model that would be found in the 31st Millennium.
