The White Dwarf Team Play Bunker Bingo

August 2024·pp. 42–43

THE SHORT VERSION

Matt completes his bingo sheet with Belthanos, whose giant insect receives a vivid pink shell built through drybrushing and a final magenta glaze. Sophie finishes a Strike Cruiser interior for her Moon Eaters using the same greys as the army, enriched with grime and coloured details. The update places these finished projects alongside the team’s continuing painting and games.

Readers describe finding an entry into Warhammer through the magazine and maintaining a family hobby after moving from Wisconsin to Prague. The gallery includes a Bretonnian-inspired Mangler Squig conversion with colourful heraldry and a marshy base, while the featured Tome Keepers collection turns a personal painting challenge into an expanding Space Marine force.

Spotlight On: Tome Keepers

Fabio Girelli explains how White Dwarf’s Task Force Bhakir inspired a boarding patrol in aged ivory armour. A Wraithbone undercoat supports brown-shaded bone plates, black trim and red details, with a separate gunmetal recipe. Although the collection began for Boarding Actions, its first reported success came in a regular battle against Blood Angels, and the plan now extends towards a larger company-sized force.

Worlds of Warhammer: Through Darkened Glass

Andy Thomas-Clark explains why the Imperium’s inhabitants know far less about their history than readers of Warhammer fiction. Ten millennia of constant war, unreliable records, enormous distances and deliberate destruction have erased context even within powerful institutions. The Scouring’s attempt to suppress betrayal becomes one of the foundations of the ignorance it was meant to prevent.
