![]() ![]() ![]() The paint scheme on my Bretonnian army is directly from a White Dwarf article, the one that had the Jousting Mini game included. The internet has long since replaced this kind of thing, but in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, this was a great source of gaming inspiration. One of the things that stood out about White Dwarf was the image quality and staged shots they took. I picked up 4-5 different weekly articles with what I thought would be neat subjects, only to find shallow ‘articles’ and low resolution images to support them. I thought this was something that could be great given Games Workshop’s non-existing online presence (until just late 2016 were they took an about-face). Skip ahead a bunch of years later and changes were announced about White Dwarf going to a weekly release, offering digital versions along side the print versions. We both stopped buying and reading as we got busier and played less Warhammer, but it was something that I held in reasonably high regard. As I grew older and more cynical, I caught on that the magazine was just a fancy catalog with a few articles of note. The magazines had some truly unique things written in them and a focus on detail and exploration of miniature wargaming. At one point, in the early years of miniature wargaming, my Brother and I had amassed a collection of White Dwarf Magazines and read them over dozens of times each. ![]()
