Warhammer retail stores are expanding their community outreach with a new staff-led activity launching on Saturday, October 10. This initiative invites customers to visit their local store to build and paint one of eight selected miniatures, offering a hands-on introduction to the various factions within the Warhammer universe.
Available Miniature Options
Participants can select from a curated range of models spanning both the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar game lines:
Warhammer 40,000
- Necron Warrior
- Cadian Shock Trooper
- Adepta Sororitas Battle Sister
- Chaos Space Marine Legionary
Warhammer Age of Sigmar
- Chaos Warrior
- Deathrattle Skeleton
- Orruk Gutripper
- Cities of Sigmar Steelhelm
Expert Guidance and Skill Development
These sessions are designed to help hobbyists refine their technical skills. Store staff will provide tutorials tailored to the specific model chosen. For example, participants painting a Chaos Warrior can learn techniques for rendering fur, while those working on a Deathrattle Skeleton can receive guidance on painting textured cloth or weathered metal.
This initiative is an excellent opportunity for hobbyists to experiment with new color schemes or explore a new army faction they have been considering.
In-Store Support and Resources
Participating locations will restock these eight featured miniatures throughout the promotion to ensure consistent availability. The program is designed to be accessible to both newcomers and experienced painters. Staff members are also available to explain additional hobby resources, such as the “Pick ‘n’ Mix” paint offer, where customers who purchase ten Warhammer Colour paints receive the most expensive one for free.
Interested individuals should visit their local store to speak with staff. You can locate your nearest branch using the official Warhammer Store Finder tool on the company’s website. These sessions complement existing programs like the Battle Honours initiative, which guides new players through the core pillars of the hobby: Build, Paint, and Play.
