Heresy!
How can it only be March?! It has, again, been quite a week. I’m leaving it at that…
The title isn’t really a pun so much as playing on the fact that I received a commission to knit a Space Marine, a Horus Heresy Thousand Sons one to be exact. But what is that, I hear?
For those who may remember, I knit an Escher’s Sister from Necromunda a while back, and these guys are actually connected to them in part of the world building backstory…
But I digress, without further ado:
I was asked to make a chibi like version as it’s a gift for a small child. I ended up creating the whole pattern from scratch, and tweaking that even as I went along, so he is truly one of a kind.
I also had a lot of fun with all the little details, like his shoulder pads and backpack!
And on that, I will see you all next post.
Until then, stay safe!

Oh my, I never thought I’d say this about a space marine but…
He’s adorable!
I’m sure he’ll be a well loved gift!
He is, isn’t he?
And hes been very much loved already, super happy with how the whole commission went!
