Standard Bearer: The History of Citadel

April 2007·pp. 71–73

THE SHORT VERSION

A rediscovered 1988 miniature-painting book prompts Jervis to trace Citadel’s development from role-playing figures into complete armies and original settings. Rick Priestley’s Warhammer, John Blanche’s painting influence and Alan Merrett’s casting work each solve a different problem of the growing hobby. Acrylic colours, slotta bases and multipart plastics emerge as connected innovations that made large, varied and highly finished collections possible.
