Illuminations: The Deathwatch

September 2016·pp. 76–81

THE SHORT VERSION

Artists describe the visual decisions that make the Deathwatch feel specialised, threatening and outnumbered. Volcano-like lighting, confined spaces, uneasy alien specimens and Chapter-specific actions appear alongside detailed weapon drawings, showing how black armour, silver arms and controlled composition establish this force’s identity.
