The White Dwarf team put out another great Paint Splatter article, as this thing really covers a ton of different techniques from Warpstone to rat fur!

Plus a new general assembly article in the  Sprues and Glue segment, and more background as well.

If you confused on exactly what’s going on in the Olde World and when, this issue also contains the ‘definitive’ End Times Chronicle Timeline from all FOUR books (caution spoiler alert).
