This is an impressive fan made animation set in the future that is Warhammer 40K. Already Games Workshop’s lawyers are circling, ready to shoot first and ask questions later to protect their valuable intellectual property – no matter the cost. So? Watch this while you can. It’s good.
It shows a Grey Knights Space Marine getting suited up. The man is as giant as you would imagine and studded with all sorts of ports for his armour.
What’s also impressive is that this is largely the work of one guy; Erasmus Brosdau.
Brosdau also seems to have access to some powerful tech. He’s using a “not yet released” version of CryEngine Cinebox to build this animation, rendering it in real time.
He noted;
During the last months I have switched the render engine. Instead of V-ray I am now using the not yet released CryEngine Cinebox, a realtime solution for the creation of cinematics. I’m excited to announce that this is a world premiere showing this new teaser, rendered in realtime on one single nvidia GTX 780 ti.
And all the images you’ve seen the last weeks have been rendered in realtime as well – but nobody noticed
This is a great success for The Lord Inquisitor to be a pioneer in this area of film making and it will help the project a lot.
