Another FW newsletter just hit:

Hi There,

With only a few days to go before Games Day UK, we have just enough time for one last Newsletter and a few last minute sneak peaks of special surprises we have for the day! One other piece of good news is that I can confirm that we will have advance copies of our new book, Imperial Armour Model Masterclass Volume 1 available to buy at the show!

Thanks
Alan Bligh



Games Day UK Sneak Peaks!

If you want to see these new models in their full glory, you'll have to go to the show or wait for for future Newsletters.

Imperial Armour Model Masterclass Volume 1



The first book of its kind produced by Forge World, Imperial Armour Model Masterclass has been many months in the making and something of a labour of love for its principle writers, Forge World designers Phil Stutcinkas and Mark Bedford. Two of the premier modellers in their fields, with a wealth of modelling experience under their belts, Mark is a multi-Golden Demon winner, while Phil has won the prestigious `Best of Show` award at Euro Militaire 2006.


The book is a 124 page full colour hardback intended for experienced hobbyists and goes into detail about numerous advanced modelling and painting techniques for making your Warhammer 40,000 models truly something special. This volume focuses on Imperial and renegade vehicles and contains in-depth sections and stage by stage guides on projects such as a the Renegade Medusa, a Cadian Stormsword, and dioramas such as the Krieg D-Battery Artillery Emplacement, the Imperial Typha-4 Airbase and the huge Siege of Vraks battle board. There is a real wealth of information in here, and I`m sure the book will be of interest to just about anyone involved in the hobby, I know it`s certainly opened my eyes to some new techniques!
We will have copies of Imperial Armour Model Masterclass available at Games Day UK and the book will be available for pre order after the show. £26.00

Methinks Sunday I will be trying to get my hands on a Zhufor and a Masterclass book

Can yer get me sum stuff an' post it too me... Obviously I'll pay P&P, but duz yer want a Deposit up front like?
I'm finking dat der book an der Chaos geezer like yoo want wood be gud.

Dammit, just write c**p and not feel yucky about it.
If I wanted the same 2 things as you, would you be prepared to obtain them for me?
Also would you be happier if i sent a deposit your way.. Via Paypal for example?

Is that price the warbikers right?? That woudl be over $100 US for 3 bikes. Seems a bit high even for FW prices.

Too bad, cause they did look good.

AdrianG, if you want anything picked up let me know and I'll see what I can do. I can't make any promises though - I must just give up queuing and wait to order next month.

jlong05, yes I think that price is right. For instance DK Quad Launchers and Heavy Mortars are £15 and £18 each, and the ork bikes appear to have a bit more resin to them so £17.33 each seems about right.

Ooohh, I might want a UM venerable dread Depends how much they are of course and I can wait until they are on general release.

Of course... I'm not sure what that means for the old venerable dread I haven't painted up yet!

If there is not too much UM bling I may get that Dread. I don't need it at all but I like the head.

I Just found out today I'm working on the Forge world stand so i don't think ill be able to buy any of these, wont stop me tying though. Zhufor is a must the Bikes I'm not sure depends on the other 2 models and the Book I think is also a must. As for the dreadnought im still not sure if i want a Ultramarines army so may get it later.

As stated in the FW post, £24 - which will not include weapons of course, just the body + legs.

I just looked at the pictures

That Khorne Lord Is frakin' awesome!

I want those bikes

If only I had £52 spare this weekend, suppose i'll have to wait till general release.

*looks at list of "wants" from FW*

How much stuff do you think FW will give me for my soul?

Probably quite a bit. GW feed the souls of redshirts into the forges. Thats why the price of metal models has increased and GW are having a recruitment drive. They have burnt out the current staff.....
