Teeny tiny little soldiers
This weekend I tagged along on a visit to the Games Workshop Warhammer World Exhibit.
I’m not knowledgeable at all about the game or the lore, but I wanted to go with my partner (who reads the books) and his friends because I do love looking at the dioramas and the miniatures.
The character design is very cool, and the skill that goes into painting those teeny tiny little soldiers is very impressive. I actually have watched a number of YouTube tutorials with my partner, I find it fascinating. He wants to paint up his Cthulhu Wars pieces but he’s never painted before so I think he’s still a bit scared he’ll ruin them!
In another life I could have gotten into painting miniatures, but I already have more projects and hobbies than I have time for. Plus, these Warhammer models are insanely expensive!
I took a surprising amount of photos – here are a few!

These are so cool! I had no idea such things existed. I especially love the pic of the little guys fighting on the wall with the dragon.

Warhammer has been around since the 80s and it’s still very popular (plus Henry Cavill has given it some “cool” in recent years). When we went they had a tournament on in the great hall and it was packed.
They also publish a lot of books (under The Black Library) which is what my partner is into, he doesn’t play the tabletop.
I just love that it combines art with very nerdy war games!
