We visited: Warhammer World – pt.2

Ivan Vedak, 4th May 2026

For any Warhammer hobbyist, a visit to Warhammer World in Nottingham is a pilgrimage of sorts. It is the epicenter of the entire Games Workshop culture - a combination of global corporate headquarters, visitor center, exhibition space, gaming hall, specialty store and themed bar, all gathered in one location. It should also be taken into account that the large gaming hall hosts Grand Tournaments for all games published by Games Workshop, and since our Ivan found himself in WHW on 18.4.2026. there was a WH40k tournament on the schedule, so the experience of the exhibition, Bugman Bar, WHW store, workshops, and gaming hall was also enhanced by the grand tournament that took place that day. This series follows his adventures…

2. Warhammer World

2.1. General Info

Warhammer World first opened its doors to the public in 1999. Over the years, it has been expanded and renovated several times, and today it functions as Games Workshop's global visitor center - a place where collectors, gamers, painters and fans from all over the world gather. The location is at Willow Road, Lenton, Nottingham NG7 2WS, and the complex itself shares space with Games Workshop's main headquarters.

It is important to note right away: entry to Warhammer World, the retail store, the Events Hall and Bugman's Bar is free. The only part of the complex that charges an entrance fee is the Exhibition Centre, which costs around GBP 8.50 (approx. EUR 9.80) for an adult. Opening hours are generally 10:00 - 18:00, with extended opening hours on Thursdays and Fridays (until 22:00) and Saturdays (until 20:00). The complex itself consists of four main parts.

2.2. Bugman's Bar

Bugman's Bar is a themed bar and restaurant named after Joseph Bugman, the famous dwarven brewer from the Warhammer: The Old World setting. The interior is consistently designed in the style of a dwarven fortress - stone elements, heavy wood, an anvil by the hearth, an Orc head mounted on the wall, and consistently themed lighting. It's a real "in-universe" experience that goes beyond the average shopping theme.

The food and drink offer is designed in the style of an English pub, with thematic names of dishes. The bar is a popular place to rest between games, socialize with other players and meet friends who gather in Warhammer World from different parts of the world. Food is served from morning until 18:00, while the bar is also open after that.

They have their own beers and spirits named after names from Games Workshop's own lore, and they also have an exclusive, which is a chicken drumstick eating contest with jalapeño sauce, and if you succeed in that, you get a title and a little pin badge. At the time we visited, it was unavailable due to a menu change, so that's another reason for us to visit again.

2.3. Retail Store

The Warhammer World store is significantly larger than the standard Warhammer stores found in European cities. The space is divided into two main units: one covers the complete range of Games Workshop figurines (Warhammer 40,000, Age of Sigmar, Middle-earth, Horus Heresy), while the other is dedicated to Forge World and its resin products. Special value is provided by the so-called "Warhammer World Exclusives" - models that can be purchased exclusively at this location or via their online shop. The offer also includes web-exclusive and event-exclusive models and limited editions that are sold out elsewhere. The store also has a Black Library department with books, as well as a corner for Warhammer Underworlds and other specialist products.

In the shop itself there is a wall with all the available Warhammer colors, as they are called after the last recent rebrand. Next to that wall there is a table with about 10 seats where, with guidance, they can be assembled and painted before the figures. These are usually figures of the month, two from each game. In the store itself I bought Space Marine HQ Command tanks, Space Marine HQ Command Tanks are a Warhammer World exclusive boxed set that contains two special vehicle variants - Land Raider Excelsior and Rhino Primaris - intended for a commanding role within the Space Marine Chapter. The set comes with an exclusive Command sprue and transfer sheet. Slightly tweaked two vehicles, with a different box, and will fit perfectly into the Ultramarine army I started.

2.4. Events Hall

The Events Hall is the heart of the social life of the Warhammer World. It is a large hall themed as the Empire castle (The Empire from the Warhammer Fantasy / The Old World setting), with an impressive number of gaming tables. Some of the tables are standard tables equipped with excellently painted Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k terrain, while others are special, purpose-built tables for certain scenarios - e.g. a large table for Apocalypse games, themed tables for special campaigns, Necromunda areas and the like. The hall hosts many official Games Workshop events: competitive tournaments such as Throne of Skulls, narrative events, Forge World and Black Library Open Days, and various workshops. When there are no official events, visitors can reserve a table and play a game for free with prior notice.

On the Saturday when we visited, the hall itself was the venue for the Warhammer 40k Grand Tournament, so that added to the excitement because the armies themselves were beautifully decorated, and the tournament was also very exciting.

    This autumn, we once again held our "Back to Basics" miniature painting workshops for children at the Medveščak Library.

    Over the course of three weeks, our youngest participants painted our "Agramers" and learned the ropes of miniature painting.

    A big thank you to the parents for their trust, and to the Children and Youth Department of the Medveščak Library for their support!

    See you next spring!

    Agram Group Build is back. For this seventh installment, the team decided to create a gaming board/diorama for Amon Hen. To that end, we fulfilled a childhood dream and acquired the original Forge World Amon Hen terrain (released around 2000) along with the accompanying set of miniatures. This series of articles will document the entire project—from crafting the terrain to assembling and painting the miniatures.

    Click for enlarged picture

    The first thing we did this week was finish painting the terrain. All that remained were the stone statues and the temple. A light drybrush of grey and white paint was all that was needed, following the layers of washes we had applied the week before.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Next came the aging process using oil paints. We used several shades of green, as well as black and a beige/white tone. First, we coated the surfaces with Odourless Thinner, then applied a few small dots of each shade, and finally used a dry brush to blend them and remove any excess pigment.

    Meanwhile, the other part of the team continued the work of cleaning the plastic Uruk-hai.

    Next came the pinning of the plastic miniatures. For the quickest results, you will need: pliers, sewing pins, and a lighter.

    Click for enlarged picture

    First, use a lighter to heat a sewing pin until it is red-hot, then press it into the Uruk-hai's leg. As the metal enters the plastic, the heat causes the plastic to expand, allowing the pin to slide in easily. However, as it enters, it also cools down; the plastic then contracts, holding the pin firmly in place. You do not need any glue. Once you have inserted the pins, use pliers to snip off the ends—the parts with the heads.

    The final task for this week was to remove the tabs from the metal figures and prepare them for pinning. Unfortunately, the previous method cannot be applied to metal figures, so we will have to use an electric drill—but more on that next time.

    In the end, we arranged the trees on the painted base so we could admire them a bit.

    Agram Group Build se vraća. U svojoj sedmoj instalaciji, ekipa je odlučila izraditi igraću tablu / dioramu za Amon Hen. Za tu potrebu, ispunili smo si dječačke sne i nabavili originalni Forge World teren Amon Hena (izašao negdje cca 2000.) sa setom pripadajućih figura. Ova serija članaka pratit će izradu cijelog projekta – kako izrade terena, tako i sastavljanja i bojanja figura.

    Prvu stvar koju smo ovaj tjedan napravili je dovršavanje bojanja terena. Ono što je ostalo jest kameni kipovi i hram. Lagani drybrush sive i bijele boje je bilo sve što je bilo potrebno nakon slojeva washeva koje smo odradili tjedan ranije.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Click for enlarged picture

    Zatim je uslijedilo dodavanje starenja uljnim bojama. Koristili smo nekoliko zelenih, crnu i bež/bijelu nijansu. Prvo smo površine prekrili Odourless Thinnerom, zatim nanijeli po nekoliko točkica svih nijansi, i onda suhim kistom pomiješali i maknuli višak pigmenta.

    Za to vrijeme, drugi dio ekipe je nastavio posao na čišćenju plastičnih Uruk Haia.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Zatim je uslijedilo piniranje plastičnih minijatura. Za najbrže rezultate potrebni su vam: kliješta, špenadle i upaljač.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Prvo upaljačem zagrijete špenadlu do usijanja, zatim ju utisnete Uruk Haiju u nogu. Kako metal ulazi u plastiku, toplina širi plastiku tako da pin može lagano ući. Međutim, kako ulazi tako se i hladi pa se plastika skuplja i drži pin na mjestu. Nikakvo ljepilo vam nije potrebno. Kad ste utisnuli špenadle, vrhove s glavom odrežite kliještima.

    Zadnji zadatak za ovaj tjedan bio je maknuti tabove sa metalnih figura i pripremiti ih za piniranje. Prethodna metoda na žalost nije primjenjiva na metalnim figurama pa ćemo morati koristiti električnu bušilicu, ali o tome više sljedeći put.

    As we announced, this time we are starting with the painting process. The first step was applying a black primer (via spray), followed by white to highlight the details.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Next came the painting of the terrain. As always, we used a palette of brown and gray paints from the Pebeo Deco brand. These are acrylic paints—relatively affordable and quite thick—which allow for easy coverage or a quick drybrush, should the need arise. We started with the brown tones, beginning with the darker shades and finishing with the lighter ones.

    Next, we highlighted the stone surfaces with black paint, then lightened them using shades of gray, ranging from darker to lighter tones. We left the temple and the statues covered only with the spray paints applied in the first step.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Click for enlarged picture

    Once the base was finished, we turned our attention to the temple and the statues. The first layer of paint we applied over the black-and-white undercoat consisted of washes. We took 5 or 6 different shades and randomly dabbed them across all the surfaces.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Since our time was running out, we decided to stop painting there and give the washes a chance to dry thoroughly. The final step for the board was applying a thick layer of PVA glue to the corner where the river would be. We did this to smooth out the surface, as we had decided to simply paint the river rather than adding any "depth."

    Meanwhile, Kruno set to work preparing the newly arrived Uruk-hai figures. He removed the first half of the figures from the sprue and cleaned off the flash.

    Kao što smo najavili, ovaj put započinjemo sa bojanjem. Prvi korak bio je nanošenje crne temeljne boje (sprejem) i onda bijele da istakne detalje.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Zatim je uslijedilo bojanje terena. Kao i uvijek, koristimo paletu smeđih i sivih boja marke Pebeo Deco. To su akrilne boje, relativno pristupačne cijenom, a dosta guste tako da omogućava lagano prekrivanje ili brzi drybrush ako nam zatreba. Prvo smo odradili smeđe nijanse, krenuvši prvo od tamnijih i završivši sa svjetlijim nijansama.

    Zatim smo kamene plohe istaknuli crnom bojom i onda posvjetljavali sivim nijansama od tamnijih do svijetlijih. Hram i kipove smo ostavili prekrivene samo sprejevima iz prvog koraka.

    Kad je baza bila gotova, okrenuli smo se hramu i kipovima. Prvi sloj boje koje smo stavili na crno-bijeli undercoat bili su washevi. Uzeli smo 5, 6 nijansi i nasumično tapkali po svim plohama.

    S obzirom da nam se termin bližio kraju, tu smo odlučili stati sa bojanjem i dati washevima priliku da se pošteno osuše. Zadnji korak na tabli bilo je dodavanje debelog sloja PVA ljepila na kut u kojem će biti rijeka. To smo napravili da izgladimo površinu s obzirom da smo odlučili da rijeku samo obojamo, bez dodavanja „dubine“.

    While printing a sauropod model—which I intended to use for a kitbash of a Lizardmen Bastiladon—one of the printed torsos ended up with defects in the legs. Around the same time, I was playing Pokémon Crystal; having fallen in love with some of the concepts in that game, I decided to merge the two worlds into one.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Taking the Pokémon Meganium as a starting concept, I wanted to create a dinosaur on a large base emerging from a lake, surrounded by skinks that are grooming it.

    Click for enlarged picture

    To achieve this, I decided to cut off the lower part of the torso—excluding the legs—position the model so it "lies" on the base, place a couple of Skinks around it, and pour resin over the base to create the effect of lake water.

    Click for enlarged picture

    The first step was to create flower petals around the dinosaur's neck. I used slightly thicker paper, cut into the shape of petals. Afterward, I glued them together with super glue to form a flower shape. I coated each petal with wood glue—applying about 6 layers—to set them into a form that would be both flexible and sturdy enough for painting. I applied each coat using a small brush, with outward strokes, to create texture on the surfaces of the petals.

    I glued the dinosaur's torso to the base using superglue and filled the gaps.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Preparation for painting was the easier part of the job; the primer used was a light-grey spray, followed by a single coat of a purple 'contrast' paint. After that, I dry-brushed the entire model with white. This created a strange, sickly base for the subsequent layers of green. This concludes the first part of the tutorial; in the second part, I will continue with painting, casting resin, and adding the final details to the model.

    Prilikom printa modela sauropoda kojeg sam mislio koristiti za kitbash Lizardmen modela bastiladona, ostao je jedan printani model trupa sa greškama u nogama. U slično vrijeme sam igrao Pokemon Crystal i obožavajući neke od koncepata u toj igri, odlučio sam spojiti dva svijeta u jedan.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Uzevši pokemona Meganium-a kao početni koncept, želio sam napraviti dinosaura na velikoj bazi koji izranja iz jezera, okruženog skinkovima koji ga timare.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Da bih to izveo, odlučio sam odrezati donji dio trupa bez nogu, postaviti model da "leži" na bazi, postaviti par skinkova oko njega i preliti bazu sa rezinom kako bih stvorio efekt jezerske vode.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Prvi korak je bio napraviti latice cvijeta oko vrata dinosura. Koristio sam malo deblji papir, izrezan u oblik latice. Nakon toga sam ih zalijepio super ljepilom u oblik cvijeta. Premazao sam svaki list drvofixom u cca 6 slojeva, kako bih učvrstio listove u formu u kojoj će biti elastični i čvrsti za bojanje. Sve premaze sam radio s manjim kistom potezima prema van, kako bih stvorio teksturu na stranicama latica.

    Trup dinosaura sam zalijepio na bazu sa superljepilom i zapunio rupe.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Priprema za bojanje je bila lakši dio posla, primer je bio svijetlosivi sprej, sa jednim slojem ljubičaste contrast boje. Nakon toga sam drybrushem bijele prekrio cijrli model. Ovime sam dobio čudnu bolesnjikavu bazu za slojeve zelene. Ovime završavam prvi dio tutoriala, nastavljam u drugom sa bojanjem i lijevanjem rezinske mase, uz završne detalje modela.

    Agram Group Build is back. For this seventh installment, the team decided to create a gaming board/diorama for Amon Hen. To that end, we fulfilled a childhood dream and acquired the original Forge World Amon Hen terrain (released around 2000) along with the accompanying set of miniatures. This series of articles will document the entire project—from crafting the terrain to assembling and painting the miniatures.

    The plan last time was to also build a balsa wood frame, but unfortunately, the balsa got misplaced during the move following the renovation of the space, so we had to postpone it. Now, it’s time to get it done.

    We cut the balsa wood into four 50 cm pieces. Afterward, we measured the highest points of each side, marked the balsa accordingly, and cut it to the desired dimensions.

    Then we traced the relief onto the balsa frame and carefully cut it out.

    The final step was cutting each corner at a 45-degree angle to create a neat frame joint.

    Next came the gluing of the frame. We bonded the sides using PVA glue, while the joints where one frame side met another were secured with superglue.

    We filled the gaps between the balsa wood frame and the terrain we created last time with DAS modeling clay.

    Finally, we coated the top surfaces of the frame and the air-drying clay infill with PVA glue, and sprinkled over it the same sand we had used for the rest of the board.

    And that’s it for this time. Next week, it’s time for painting.

    Agram Group Build se vraća. U svojoj sedmoj instalaciji, ekipa je odlučila izraditi igraću tablu / dioramu za Amon Hen. Za tu potrebu, ispunili smo si dječačke sne i nabavili originalni Forge World teren Amon Hena (izašao negdje cca 2000.) sa setom pripadajućih figura. Ova serija članaka pratit će izradu cijelog projekta – kako izrade terena, tako i sastavljanja i bojanja figura.

    Plan za prošli put bio je da napravimo i okvir od balze, ali na žalost u selidbi nakon renovacije prostora, negdje smo zagubili balzu tako da smo to odgodili. Sad je došao red na to.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Odrezali smo balzu na četiri komada od 50cm. Nakon toga izmjerili smo najviše dijelove pojedine strane i tako označili balzu te ju prerezali na željene dimenzije.

    Potom smo ucrtali reljef na okvir od balze i pažljivo ga izrezali.

    Zadnji korak bilo je zarezivanje svakog kuta pod 45 stupnjeva tako da dobijemo uredan spoj okvira.

    Tada je uslijedilo lijepljenje okvira. Stranice smo zalijepili PVA ljepilom dok smo spojeve stranice okvira na drugu stranicu okvira zalijepili superljepilom.

    U rupe između okvira od balze i terena kojeg smo napravili prošli put ubacili smo DAS glinamol.

    Na kraju smo gornje plohe okvira i popune od glinamola premazali PVA ljepilom te na to posipali isti pijesak koji smo koristili za ostatak table.

    I to je bilo to za ovaj put. Sljedećeg tjedna ide bojanje.
