Alan and Michael Perry were some of the earliest sculptors at Citadel and they helped to define the look and feel of Warhammer as it evolved from the very beginning.
Their work on the Empire informed the distinctive historically influenced uniforms, they created the Goblin Fanatics, and they designed some of the greatest models, units, and armies in Games Workshop history
In my interview with the Perry twins we talk about their origins in the sculpting art and hobby, their careers working on historical miniatures, Warhammer, and on the Lord of the Rings.

![ZARAGOZ: Warhammer Fantasy’s First Trilogy | GW Book Club 03
Were reading Zaragoz, the first novel of the Orfeo trilogy, written in 1989 by Brian Stableford under the pen name Brian Craig. The book introduces us to master lute player, minstrel, and storyteller Orfeo as he weaves a tale of the mysterious Estallian city of Zaragoz in an effort to win his freedom from a dangerous pirate lord.
In GW Book Club my friend Stu and I explore classic fiction from the worlds of Warhammer, 40k, and Dark Future.

![Movie Miniatures | Johnny Fraser-Allen in Conversation with Jordan Sorcery
After working as a conceptual and special effects artist at Weta Workshop on films like Steven Spielbergs BFG, Guillermo Del Toro and then Peter Jacksons the Hobbit movies, and James Camerons Avatar Johnny Fraser-Allen began making miniatures for gaming in the fantasy realms he loves so much.
Working with Alessio Cavatore & Riverhorse Games Johnny designed the miniatures for the boardgame adaptations of Jim Hensons Labyrinth and Dark Crystal. As a lifelong Warhammer fan his work has been featured on Warhammer Community, and his incredible creations have regularly appeared on Adam Savages Tested.
And all of that is before the creation of his 20-year-in-the-making magical world of The Gloaming. A folktale and fae inspired fantasy world drawing on European and Antipodean myths & legends, filled with incredible creatures, and perhaps one of the most immersive game settings ever devised. A full-size tour of The Gloaming has been produced by Weta with narration by Stephen Fry, and Johnny has been working on a series of campaigns to release 28mm scale miniatures and printable STLs for the denizens of this otherworldly place.
We talk about it all, and it is incredible!
