Previously, I've posted "out-of-context" bits and pieces of a Warhammer 40k comic I've been drawing (found here and here). Here you can see some of the very first one-off pages from 2019 when I had just started drawing them for fun (hence the poor quality compared to some of my more recent art).

More explanation and also brief intros of the main characters can be below!

This comic is something I've been working on since I first got into 40k back in 2019, thanks to a bizarre string of events involving my little brother, a children's TV show, a Rimworld colony, and a lot of wasted paper.

As is my habit when I become interested in anything, I started to doodle little comics as I researched the lore. My brother seemed to enjoy the drawings, so whenever we were bored, we would sit and come up with silly scenarios I could draw.

At the start, the comic was just a series of little one-off pages. The setting was a mostly destroyed T'au ship that had been attacked and left drifting in space, trying to crawl back to the T'au Empire while picking up some other stranded characters on the way.

After almost a whole sketchbook of incomprehensible scribbles, I started to actually draw a story. There was an actual plot and higher stakes (barely), and then it expanded to a second sketchbook and then a third! I have a plot outline stuck to the wall over my desk, and I foresee a lot more sketchbooks in the future of this comic, haha.

There are ten (10) main characters... Currently. Behold! My silly Warhammer 40k characters!

Apologies if my handwriting is illegible.

I might post the actual 'plot' part of the comic if people want, but it isn't very grimdark, and I'm scared that die-hard 40k fans will be mad at me for it haha.
