I began collecting Scythes of the Emperor since 1995, showcasing online since 1997. Through this period I collected art by Games Workshop showing the Scythes of the Emperor in combat from GW literature.
Images of the Scythes in Advanced Space Crusade, Space Hulk and even the Tau codex, I have always found the illustrations of these marines struggling against an implacable and merciless foe more evocative than most Space Marine Chapter art out there.
Artists cover Frank Baker, John Blanche, Kev Walker, Adrian Smith, Paul Bonner and Dave Gallagher to name a few.
Site owner and creator, Sebastian Stuart has been updating and maintaining the Scythes of the Emperor webpage since 1997. He is canonised as 'ForgeMaster Sebastion' by Richard Williams and LJ Goulding in the Scythes of the Emperor novels by Black Library. 
Cool artwork you have collected there, but I was wondering where you found that banner, if you remember xD
Hi Daniel,
Hmmm.. think I grabbed that from Advanced Space Crusade, art amongst the rule sections. Veritable goldmine those early boardgames.

Does anybody know why the Terminators are almost full Yellow in that single full colour pic?
It’s crucial to me because i want to paint some Scythes Termies and i’m confused.
Hi, that piece of art was a test piece for the game ‘Space Crusade’. It did not get used by GW – I think your best bet is to either take inspiration from GW’s direction or Andrews work under the section ‘The Heart of Sotha’ showcase. :)
Thanks for dropping by! – Seb
I have this page as something sacred since i always wanted to paint Scythes (and using a similar alternative paint scheme like yours ;)). Also, i´m planning on sculpting someday the (What i consider) Chapter Banner and this artwork is really useful.
Just one thing, Picture 15 is from an Ultramarine (Ventris in one codex, Ultramarines in another…). You can see the simbols on his armour. We´re family but still not the same thing ;)
Thank you! And good catch! Cheers for that :) Do get in touch when your project is underway – be great to feature it :)
I’ve got some more models on the way this month as I prep my Tenax force for games.
This page has been an amazing resource for my growing Scythes force, I had to leave a comment and say thank you – this page is awesome!
Thank you! When you have some painted, send them my way for the Community Gallery! :)
Shall have some special updates soon too :)
