New Concepts Shows Hive City of The Lord Inquisitor
March 8, 2015 by dracs
A new concept sketch has appeared for the Warhammer 40k fan film The Lord Inquisitor showing a design for one of the most iconic locations of the Imperium; a Hive City.
The grand scale of the setting certainly seems right. Even at this early stage we get a glimpse at a high tech world of soaring spires dripping with over-the-top gothic architecture. I really hope we get to see something of this scope and detail in the finished movie.
The guys behind The Lord Inquisitor also sent out a small WiP to give us an idea of the size comparison of the different characters.
As you can see, the Grey Knights will be standing at the oversized scale they are described as in the background, rather than standing at about the same height as an Imperial Guard trooper like their models do.
With these concepts, I am very impressed by the attention to detail going into this fan project. A lot of effort is going into making this foray into 40k universe exactly as we have always imagined it.
Are you looking forward to seeing The Lord Inquisitor?

Does this have the blessing of GW? I’ve heard that they’ve shut down fan films in the past on occasion.
@igotskills Yes, GW gave their blessing for this awhile ago. Even Aaron Dembski-Bowden was going to write a script for it. Though I heard he’s been replaced with someone else. GW has shut down other fan films before.
As for that Terminator, wow, someone seriously doesn’t understand scale. That thing is easily 10 feet tall. Unless somewhere “7 foot tall super human warriors” translates into 10 feet and I don’t know about it.
That’s good to know. I do think you are mistaken about terminators however. Space marines are over 7 foot tall yes, yes they are not 10 foot tall but terminators are larger suits of armour than power armour. Look at ‘art scale’ GW’s minis have seriously mis-represented space marines (even terminator armour).
Also that is not 10foot, you realise that is the height of a basketball hoop, even if that inquisitor is 6’8 that terminator is not 10 foot.
