“You bastard!!”
Hark! The Brazen Bastards summon you, the Dark Lands’ finest artisans! While many have heard the murmurs, a small band of misfits and their misdeeds, we seek to transcend esoterica and spread chaos from the New World to the Eastern Steppes. Take up the call of the Bastards!

Subject Matter: Brazen Bastard Artwork Challenge!
This time around we want you to draw, paint or otherwise create some kind of non-miniature artwork or concept sketch which in some way feature one or more members of the Brazen Bastards as you imagine them. The growing war-band is ripe for aesthetic diversity and welcomes new Bastards of any variety.
You could tackle this theme in myriad ways. Perhaps you have a fresh concept for a chaotic dwarf that doesn’t fit a traditional theme or army style, now is your chance to air that brilliance out for others to witness. Your dwarf could worship one of the other Chaos gods (despite their doubtless inferiority to Hashut and Walhut). Speaking of Walhut, need I say more? Take up the reigns of your Walrus chariot and draw a piece of Chaos Dwarf Renegade Culture Project history. Or if upside down tusks aren’t your thing, you could conceive of your own Chaos Dwarf outer god and its Bastard zealot, like an owl themed samurai dwarf of Hashoooot. Maybe you are a history enthusiast and feel like there are other cultures that could use a Chaos Dwarf interpretation, there are certainly plenty of historical threads
to peruse. Not to mention an abundance of concept art on this forum to take inspiration from and a whole archive filled with hidden gems like Admiral’s Mesoamerican Chaos Dwarfs. Alternatively, you could depict one or more of the existing bastards and their countless misdeeds. Porco Dio and his blood-feud with
Hamlet Schweindergott of Averland. The Onion Knight pillaging a halfling farmer’s turnip crop. Oss Crook-Finger breaking his finger trying to pull up his bone undertrousers after finishing squatting on his chaos toilet…
