We recently ran a competition to win a 30" x 20" canvas print of the 2nd Edition 40k box cover. The number and quality of submissions we received was overwhelming, so a massive thank you to everyone who took part!
After putting it to our Haiku committee, we have a winner! A huge well done to De Selby for his entry, which we loved for its humour and self-referential nature!

..."But what do I need to do to win this sweet prize?", we hear you ask.
We want you to create a Haiku, inspired by Chainsaw Warrior!
What better way to convey the ludicrous world, exaggerated characters, and brutally visceral action of Chainsaw Warrior, than through the simple elegance found in the artistic expression of Haiku?
Perhaps these miniatures will help get you inspired?
There are no rules, except for the rules inherent in Haiku: it must consist of just 3 lines, the first and last of which have 5 syllables, with the middle line having 7 syllables.
