Oh look here it's a New Year and another White Dwarf blog post this time No.149, let's dive into the goodness.
We should take a minute to talk about this bonkers cover first. I know they take all comers in the imperial guard but these grey trouser, blond tough guys are something else. Did they fall down that hole or make it themselves?? Either way the commissar clearly has trouble keeping track of his regiment as they have the issue standard happy birthday 4th regiment badges.
Moving on we now get to some soldiers of the Empire. First with the mighty and now very expensive War Wagon. It's a great looking model and these are some bright colour choices, even a red morning star!
Not sure I recognise Thaindon and Kargos High Elf Dragonlord and mount. IT's a nice looking grumpy dragon though. On doing some rummaging around google I found this nugget of gold about the pair.
Amongst the Dragonlords of the Elves Thaindon’s name is held in awe, for it was he who hunted the Fire-Drake Kargos, scorcher of a hundred castles, and bent him to his will. Thaindon triumphed in a mighty battle against the dragon-wyrm, and earned both the beast’s respect and the right to ride him in battle. Together they are rightly feared throughout the Elven Kingdoms.
Moving on we get to some Epic Ork Vehicles, too small scale wise for me but the banners are nice and Braincrushas are always fun.
Marauder Dwarf Clansmen, as I've mentioned before the marauder range of dwarves are the best aesthetically for me, or perhaps it's the way they are painted.
Finally an iconic image of two allied Space Marine chapters (Blood Angels and Dark Angels) going up against the Eldar. These little dioramas are great, and I still fancy a go at giving my own Eldar back banners because of the way they are done here on the striking scorpions.
