I thought only Nurglites had a fidget spinner insignia, not a Loyalist Chapter.

This is one of, if not my most favorite loyalist chapter.

I just wish there where more written stories with them or something. Such an underrated chapter.

For Ferrus Manus and death to the heretics.
For the Emperor!

The Iron Hand's, who are now headed away from their "Flesh is weak!" doctrine, and now seeking a purity of the soul (Deathwatch Codex).

Powerful.

THE FLESH IS WEAK!!!

anno78 Featured By Owner Edited Sep 4, 2016

Not anymore!

According to the new Deathwatch Codex the Iron Hand's have undergone a change, and no longer believe in replacing flesh with bionics. They now seek to attain a purity of the soul.

This falls in line with what their Primarch, Ferrus Manus, wanted for his Legion. Had he lived he was going to remove the metal covering his lower arms, and steer his Legion away from their "flesh is weak" mindset.

BrotherCoa Featured By Owner Sep 4, 2016

So like Black Templars who now believe that Emperor is a God?

anno78 Featured By Owner Sep 5, 2016

This is what the Codex says:
There was a time when the sons of Ferrus Manus held metal as superior to flesh, but in recent decades these masters of mechanised warfare have balanced clinical precision with the insights of a righteous soul.

If Ferrus Manus hadn't died on Istvaan the would have guided his Legion away from their belief in 'the flesh is weak', and also removed the metal covering his arms. It seems something has altered the Chapter's beliefs, but what was it?

They don't believe the Emperor is a God (the purity of soul bit was let slip by my GW store manager when I bought the Codex, a hint of what's to come).

BrotherCoa Featured By Owner Sep 5, 2016

I agree, I was only mentioning that they have been changed like Templars who of 6'th edition see Emperor as a actual God instead of greatest Men that ever lived.

anno78 Featured By Owner Sep 5, 2016

It'll be interesting to see how the Chapter evolves, now it's on this new path! Will it affect their close ties to the Mechanicum?

FEH. I've hated these guys ever since I read "Wrath of Iron."

Incineratechicken Featured By Owner Sep 20, 2015

Why? Because they're assholes, or because they're the "good" guys?

I always quite liked the Hands for it.

TransformAndConquer Featured By Owner Feb 28, 2015 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Well Rauth hates you too. Though to be fair, Rauth hated everyone in that book.

BlackWraith13 Featured By Owner Jan 26, 2015

I am truly sorry to hear you say that...

The Flesh is Weak! Very good work sir.

VossZero Featured By Owner Aug 10, 2014

Almost looks 30k. Granted the Iron Hands armor is 40k era, but the Emp Children armor looks so neat and pristine, like they only just went banana nuts crazy.

I've seen a lot of warhammer concept art, BUT WOAH! This one is by far my favourite!

Really wicked job! This entire composition is livid with energy and strife!
I love the muzzle flashes and how the lighting hits the rain and the different materials of the objects!

Fantastic piece, really really good job!
Congratulations on the DD

Well deserved!
