Very cool to see the latest White Dwarf exploring Games Workshop’s wonderful history again, focusing on the cool stuff that stores can do, and including Talisman content!
I actually picked up my copy in the very Manchester store mentioned in the issue: a tremendous shop whose manager Paul is brill!

Thanks to my lovely wife who ventured into the frozen wastes this morning and snagged a copy of White Dwarf #518!
A fabulous board overlay and story card for Talisman 5th Edition from Avalon Hill and a picture of Bob Harris’ original Talisman from 1983 inside!

I'm still waiting to see if the Moroz Gul units for @warlordgames.com's Konflikt '47 Soviets are going to be available separately! I hope so, as even the Soviet Bloc starter army is showing as OOS! I'm also going to grab some BritBots for a Fort Neuropa flavour. Both excellent proxies for Nu Earth!

What with all this attention for Talisman and the Talisman Realm over the last week or so, I had a thought that I'd give Talisman Island a little bit of a site identity overhaul and redesigned the home banner for the page! 🤩

So I took a look at the Archives Sites section of Talisman Island and realised that I hadn't updated the three gallery pages that used Adobe Flash to display the images, and figured it was about time for a change to FooGallery. 🥳

That’s a nice colour scheme on this Talisman Ranger! 😍
Talisman 3rd edition ranger.
I like this one and will probably use him as a bounty hunter for WHQ.
I painted him a bit like Felix.

Always a repost for Talisman-related figures! These magic users came in a couple of Talisman 3rd Edition’s expansions, the GW Toy Box range and on the cover of White Dwarf! 😍
If anyone has any of these old school plastic wizards they would be happy to throw my way please DM me 🙏
Or I'd be happy to even paint one or two on commission for you?
I just miss them.

I have embarked upon a quest. A foolish quest? Time will tell. The quest is to paint all of the minis in my board game collection. Perhaps that shall inspire me to play more of them? Who knows? I’m starting with the RPG adjacent games. Talisman (3rd Ed I believe) was first!

So I've started painting Talisman 3rd Edition. I initially got interested in this because of the crossover miniatures for WHQ95.
I'm experimenting with sculpting bases too.
