Thanks again to everyone that submitted artwork or precolor scheme. Hope you dig it, spent way longer on this than I thought I would. I have the data slate programmed for inclusion of a narrative path adventure story, just dont have the time to write it. Looking to collaborate with a writer on an inquisitor retinue or deathwatch 'choose your own adventure' for the data slate, let me know if you are interested. If you want to submit your hive fleet for inclusion in the data slate use the contact information located in the data slate to submit.
The bad computer kind not the cool eat the imperium kind. Wanted to simulate a big desk with tons of (please do not swear) on it. In a Tyranid army paint scheme, however, blue takes on a dimension of quiet fatalism.
Also clocks in around 5 mb so will need broadband or lots of paitience. Twilight blue hour, before the night, is a most attractive photogenic color when placed alongside the orange horizon of the setting sun. I made using my widescreen monitor at 1680 X 1050. Painter is big resolution wise about 1800 X 1600, will need to scroll down and over to fit field guide into window. Had some layout problems with data slate screen on viewing this on a mac, might get stuck and unable to go back, can still play with painter, just no access to precolored schemes. If you are stuck on how to progress through the painter move your mouse around and click on stuff. Many things to click on, try them all out.
