Editing Adrian Smith

[[File:Adrian-smith-Hoards-of-Chaos-6-ArmyBook-cover.jpg|thumb|right|400px|It wouldn't be inaccurate to say that this image got people into Warhammer.]]
Adrian Smith is an artist who created art for GW from the beginning of the 2000's to the early 2010's. He also created the Horus vs the Emperor art. Yes that one! In more recent years he was worked on the art for Blood Rage, Hate, Gwent and multiple other board and table-top games by [[CMON]]. Adrian is very well liked by [[fa/tg/uys]] for his work on 3rd and 4th editions 40k which he illustarted the Grim Dark 41st millenium brilliantlly, and his work on Warhammer Fantasy pretty much established the Warriors of Chaos as twisted, heavy metal vikings with his work for their books.

Adrian seems very comfortable creating Norse-themed art as this is what he primarily works one for projects, and is also very adept at body horror and people being mutated and corrupted (hence why he made such good art for Chaos), but he works outside of this niche a fair bit as well.
