Tzeentch’s Horrors: Chaotic Daemons of Change and Magic
Interior artwork Tze Kun Chin did for Battletome: Disciple of Tzeentch. A really odd picture that depicts the twisted birth of the blue horrors, Tze Kun Chin likes exploring such subjects.
The Chaotic Nature of Tzeentch’s Horrors
This stunning artwork showcases a trio of Horrors, daemons of Tzeentch, the Chaos God of change and magic in Warhammer. Horrors are infamous for their mutable, shape-shifting forms, and this piece captures their chaotic essence perfectly. At the top of the composition are Blue Horrors, grotesque creatures with blue skin, glowing yellow eyes, and gaping mouths full of sharp teeth. Their writhing forms and long, clawed limbs exude constant motion, emphasizing their unstable and unpredictable nature.
The Transformation of Pink to Blue
Below the Blue Horrors is a larger Pink Horror, vivid in its fleshy pink hue and marked by a twisted expression of pain or malevolence. The Pink Horror is impaled by a weapon, a striking visual tied to their lore—when slain, Pink Horrors split into two Blue Horrors, continuing the cycle of chaos. This splitting reflects Tzeentch’s core aspect of endless change and instability. The image as a whole captures the magical and otherworldly madness these daemons bring, making them a terrifying force on the battlefield and a vivid embodiment of their master’s will.
