Not sure if I have the swivel gun but I've got the petard, several bazookas and a unit of xbows. Probably be awhile before I get to painting them as you know the inclination to save the best for last, etc.Spooktalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09436639944558607691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-77771084689151472042013-07-29T13:14:07.339-07:002013-07-29T13:14:07.339-07:00The foundry ones they sell these days are fairly r...The foundry ones they sell these days are fairly rustic with no stirrup.

Forgive me if I'm wrong but I would have sworn it was 108.<br /><br />The list of artists that worked on WD around these two issues include Tony Ackland, John Blanche, Paul Bonner, Paul Campbell, Chris Colston, Ian Cooke, Mark Cordory, Carl Critchlow, Wayne England, Dave Gallagher, Jon Glentoran, Gary Harrod, Tony Hough, Pete Knifton, Ian Miller, Russ Nicholson, Tim Pollard, Bill Sedgewick, Kevin Walker and Richard Wright.<br /><br />Mark Cordory matches the initials on the bottom right of both pictures (where the artist's name usually goes) but nobody matches the dated squiggle inside the first picture, at bottom left (unless Ian Miller was using a different style of signature than usual).Warlord Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477146670213381976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-68865316926757028372013-07-26T02:50:45.063-07:002013-07-26T02:50:45.063-07:00I love this era of CD's and have many (The Wif...I love this era of CD's and have many (The Wife says too many heh), the CD Bazookas in 3rd are devastating.

At the time, <i>White Dwarf</i> listed the artists along with a reproduction of their signatures on the contents page, so you should be able to figure it out from there.thekelvingreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928260185408072124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-81547590071210190852013-07-26T01:16:06.186-07:002013-07-26T01:16:06.186-07:00Apparently Foundry do some crossbows which make gr...Apparently Foundry do some crossbows which make great proxies for the old Citadel ones?<br /><br />Regarding full armies with elite units etc, I'd be surprised is somebody hasn't already produced a "fan codex" or some such for these old guys somewhere in the Internet?

I have recently painted a mortar team and really enjoyed the almost oriental style of the dwarf's armour and trappings. No I feel I want to do some more. Trouble is, I doubt I'd ever be able to finish the set, doubt the wife will let me shell out £100s for the ass cannon or the juggernaut!Orlygghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01590080915486192175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-24596501993730412722013-07-25T11:42:03.612-07:002013-07-25T11:42:03.612-07:00Ah! great stuff...thanks for posting this!

I was looking for the first page of this "article" just last night...I have the other two pages from my dismembered copy of 107 but the narrative bit at the beginning has gone missing.<br /><br />I'm a huge fan of the pre-Big Hat Chaos dwarfs...and the addition of the swivel gun and Xbows made them a much more viable force... though as you mention they still lack a real army list...where are the elite Chaos dwarfs?<br /><br />And for once I can say that I own all of the figures discussed here...haven't painted them yet...but thats not what you asked...:)<br /><br />keep up the excellent work mate!Blue in VThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16420605978612894112noreply@blogger.com
