PAINTING·WHITE DWARF 350

Goblins and Gretchin

February 2009·p. 101

THE SHORT VERSION

Goblin and Gretchin skin receives a brighter treatment than the adjacent Orc example. Knarloc Green is washed with Thraka Green, then Goblin Green establishes the main complexion. A three-colour green, yellow and bone highlight leads to pure Bleached Bone on the most prominent details, producing a lighter and sharper face while the recesses retain their green depth.

Gotrek and Felix receive an audio adventure involving a stolen relic of Stromfels, while Talisman’s Reaper expansion adds Death as an active hazard. Mark Latham’s Trafalgar introduces Age of Sail naval battles, and a short School League announcement explains the next stage of the regional competition.

Rise of the Ancients

Andy Hall interviews Andy Hoare and Robin Cruddace about making the Lizardmen a more continuously active and richly described civilisation. Their alien interpretation of the Old Ones’ plan can make them terrifying aggressors rather than straightforward defenders of order. The discussion connects the expanded temple-city history to resilient Saurus, mixed Skink–Kroxigor units, new Stegadon configurations and more flexible Slann, before presenting practical collecting and painting advice.

Stegadon

Dave Thomas and Martin Footitt explain how plastic construction allowed a larger, more aggressive-looking Stegadon than the earlier metal model. The stepped howdah follows the creature’s back and supports a giant bow, blowpipes or an Engine of the Gods, while interchangeable heads and horns distinguish multiple beasts. Annotated frame photographs show the many crew, weapon and decorative components behind that flexibility.
