PAINTING·WHITE DWARF 425

Ruins of the Realms

December 2017·p. 130

THE SHORT VERSION

Littler gives the display ruins a green cast distinct from the grey ground, then ties the whole board together with a thinned brown wash and pale drybrush. Removing excess wash with tissue keeps the large surfaces controlled, creating depth and a weathered setting through broad operations suited to scenery.

Lord-Celestant Gavriel Sureheart

Gavriel Sureheart’s miniature is presented as an openly heroic Stormcast commander, with an unhelmeted head, lion imagery and an enormous runeblade. The description connects its decorative armour and equipment to other Stormcast designs, positioning the character as another leader collectors can place within a Hammers of Sigmar force.

Munitorum Report: Stormcast Reforgings

Examples of reforging show both salvation and unsettling transformation among Sigmar’s warriors. Torglug becomes Tornus, hardened veterans withstand Tzeentch’s magic and Thostos acquires a living-metal nature, but the final observation questions what repeated remaking may eventually cost an immortal warrior’s identity.

Tales from the Black Library

The magazine previews Gaunt’s return to Urdesh in The Warmaster and Vulkan’s competing obligations in Old Earth, then introduces further stories of Fabius Bile and the Hallowed Knights. Two introductory anthologies offer routes into the settings through novellas and short fiction, with the descriptions outlining premises rather than reproducing the books.
