Techpriests at work.

Strange things are starting to appear in the lab of Ray and Mick, our Scenery and Logistics team.
Baneblade_vehicles_002_6 ForgeWorld kits, bits of tanks and even toy diggers are being welded with green stuff to create vehicles for a new gaming board for the Warhammer World Gaming Hall. To whet your appetite, and show you how they make our totally unique boards, we'll be adding photographs as the project develops.

Images of their Baneblade are not for the faint of heart!

The Glory of Chaos!

Daemon_artboard_prep_soulgrind_6 Now on in Warhammer World is our new exhibition, showcasing the Chaos Daemons - unique in Games Workshop as they cross both the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy universes.

This must - see exhibition features a range of classic miniatures from the 1980's and 1990's through to brand new sculpts, ForgeWorld figures and inspiring conversions. Alongside these painted miniatures there are some original 'greens' and three-ups such as the massive Soul Grinder.

Careful searching of the archive has provided Realm of Chaos books and a very rare chance to see original artwork from them, previously believed to be lost forever.

Exhibition ends 7th of July, check out the Chaos Exhibition photo album for a taster!

Dave Thomas – Painting Master

341_dt_bretpair_1_50 Just arrived in the Citadel Miniatures Hall are the beautiful miniatures of Citadel Design’s sculptor and painter Dave Thomas. On display over the next few months his distinctive painting style is worth seeing, guaranteed to inspire new and existing hobbyists.

All of the miniatures featured in the Painting Masters article of White Dwarf issue 341 are on display, including Commissar Yarick, a Mordheim Ogre and a Freelance Knight - Dave’s Golden Demon entry for 2000. Unfortunately his Kislev Musician isn’t included, but with good reason – Dave kindly gave it to his father as a birthday present. However, being a generous soul he has added a few more figures to the display, not seen in the White Dwarf article.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see Dave’s modelling and painting expertise for yourself!
