Description Sheet styrene and an xacto knife, hand cut.  

I always wondered what an Imperial shrine would look like, so I challenged myself to make one.  The key part I focused on what the general dirt and clutter; humans in the 40k universe and not a tidy, minimalist bunch.  Hiveworlds are incredibly crowded, insular affairs, every surface having been personalized in one way or another by countless millions of individuals desperate to make a mark.  So clutter and personality had to be in, along with a sense of grandiose purpose subverted by a hundred meaningless things.   This took the form of hundreds of small personal items, taken from the dead by the survivors, and placed on the shrine in the failed hope there would be meaning in it all.

(I am open for Commissions!)

A hundred meaningless things to some, and each one tells a story.
This is one of the most creative game pieces I've ever seen. I love this so much I need to make one myself. Skaven Style!
The clutter feels so real! Each human leaving his mark on you nailed the theme and then some. Please paint this its so cool!

Haha, thank you! I really hope you do; there's so much you could do with a skaven shrine!  As for painting, I am a terrible painter - I just don't have the patience or skill to enjoy it.  I may or may not commission someone to do it for me.

Oh yea I'm thinking a human statue, that's been defiled by the invading rat horde.
Graffiti, thrown fruit and smeared poop! 
You so have the patience to paint your models! You will come to enjoy it as much as your sculpting.
Don't hold yourself back. I mean look at me, I just learned the wonders of styrene thanks you to friend.
