Was looking for my Lord of the rings dvd and stumpled across some old books. Fantasy miniatures book 1989 & 1990 Eavy metal painting guide 1993 White Dwarf 157, 164 & 199 in the 157 edition I have marked the Golden Demon categories I was entering, Best ork, Best 40k vehicle, Best mounted single miniature, Best war engine and Best battle scene. Looking at how the minis were painted back then is weird as they look very basic.
Well feel free to make a new one and do a side by side comparison. Would be fun to see nor only a change in painting style, but the difference in models as well.
