      If you pressed me to guess his age I’d go with 36. He must be on one hell of a gene/lifestyle combo.

        Maybe it’s his badge picture when he first got hired lol

        *Edit: Nope, the man just aged wonderfully.

      It’s not even thier art style. Try try and mimic GameWorkshop art style.

      When they pushed that garbage in D3 I knew there was no one else with talent in the studio.
