I didn't see this coming: Stuff of legends is now a book!?

[Wilbur the Red]

Yep, looks like it is (and the signed copies are already sold out).
I guess this is old news for everyone, but the fact that I've visiting the forum and never stumbled on this project means that I'm getting old.

I only just found out about it here:

Post in thread 'More Warhammer: The Old World Made to Order miniatures'

Jun 25, 2026

Collector's Baby Dragons

Sculpted by Trish, as to quite when they were released .... humm not sure.

Saw today they are realising a 'stuff of legends' fantasy miniatures book, with lots of photos (via Warlord Games?). Trish Carden had put a link up on her Facebook page and from Robin Dews post.

Ditto and couldn't resist ordering myself a copy either.

I'm not sure it is affiliated with The Stuff of Legends.

Ditto, this afternoon. However the signed copies had already gone...whoosh. To quick for me.

It's photos of Richard's collection and he's signed some of the copies, so it had better be!

Managed to snag a signed one, so I'm happy.

 

[Brother Meredith]

Are they new photos of his collection?

 

[symphonicpoet]

All already gone? Geeze. I'm going to have to travel to the coast to try and corner him and get him to sign a copy. Time for a new Oldhammer in the US, I suppose.

Edit: There still seem to be signed copies in the US store.

 

[Fimm McCool]

To be honest, excellent chap though Richard undoubtedly is, I'd be more interested in a copy signed by the people who painted the miniatures.

Don't think so?

Maybe, sure would be a task to track them all down. He does a good job of crediting his commission painters on the website. I sure hope that the book replicates those credits…

 

[Wilbur the Red]

According to the Jordan Sorcery video all painting is properly credited.

I think my only gripe will be that the figures are not labelled as to which series.
So the site will still be needed for reference.

*oh. And the obligatory gripe about the incorrect use of the word infamous

They've got it infamy...

I often think about having a break from our Hammer Horror film nights and swapping to Carry On for a bit.

Well, do it! Think most them free to watch on ITVx. Up the Kyhber was always my favourite, especially the meal scene during the khazis bombardment. Always thought early Citadel GW miniature names were in the spirit of a bit 'Carry on' daft humour, and forever after thanking Tim Pollard for that legacy!
