Warhammer 40k: My Body is a Cage

A tribute to the Emperor of Mankind, set to the song My Body is a Cage by Arcade Fire. Original quality flash version: This is an old project of mine, which I recently got around to finishing. When I first heard this song, I felt like it fit really well - the Emperor betrayed by Horus, trapped on the Golden Throne, watching the Imperium he built crumbling over the millennia. Kind of silly in retrospect, but here we are. To anyone who is familiar with 40k lore, I apologize for any inaccuracies or omissions - the most likely explanation is that I didn’t feel like I could draw something, or that the song wasn’t long enough. Overall there is probably a lot of room for improvement, but mostly I just wanted to see this thing done. Longer explanations of what’s going on can be found on the Warhammer 40k wiki:
