    Is this from something? Or just necron fanart?

    Trayzyn the infinite. He basically runs around stealing shit that he deems of historic value. Sometimes that means entire squads of Marines or other faction's forces frozen in time.

    Edit: I am dumb and thought you were asking "what is this". Leaving this comment up for anyone who doesn't get the joke though.

    I've been meaning to reply sooner, but I kept your comment up so I could get back to you

    You did mostly answer my question! I looked him up and was delighted by what I read. My first wh40k army was the necrons. I have their symbol hanging from my rear view mirror, even! It's been there in my cars for the last 20ish years? I have the first necron codex

    [Insert image of codex here] I can't find it atm, or else I'd share

    But I haven't been active in a very long time and I was blown away by the changes to the units when I looked them up a few weeks ago

    Ultimately I was wondering what the artwork was from but I was still glad to learn about some new lore

    I learned about it last week; it's delightful. A close friend is half Czech, so I often end up sharing with her cool stuff I learn about Czechia, and this was one of them.

    Something that's been cool about this is that before I knew of her Czech heritage, I knew very little about Czechia. I've realised that whenever I stumbled across cool facts about the place or people, my brain didn't have anything concrete to attach it to, so it'd just end up in a nebulous blob of Eastern European-ness, and would more readily be forgotten. A lot of what I've learned over the last year or so has mostly been because if I stumble across something cool, like this dam, then my brain now goes "ooh, this is cool, I should tell my friend about this". She acts like a sort of semantic anchor in my mind, and that's really cool

    My dyslexic brain thought we were talking about gorilla habitat restoration
