This patch & chaos eye patch are both from Games Workshop which is the company behind the Warhammer games. The artworks are also from those games. Bolt Thrower used to have lots of Warhammer references, which is probably why they used the skull logo on the grindcrusher tour shirts.

Anyways, they are both really nice patches!
I used to love those games when I was younger.

No problem !
The pic is an old Warhammer 40K packet. The art is originally from Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader rulebook. And as you may know, the re-release of Realm of Chaos had different artwork to avoid copyright problems.

And like I said, BT actually have lots of references to the warhammer universe.
For example, Realm Of Chaos, plague bearers, world eaters, eye of terror..

If you're into scifi books, I recommend checking out some of the warhammer 40K novels.
