    Hello

    I'm curious to know if there is a website or other source that lists information for sculpted Warhammer miniatures such as...
    • sculpted by
    • date of sculpt
    Does anyone know if such a resource exists?

    I'd love to know who was responsible for sculpting some of my favourite miniatures.

    Cheers & thank you!

    I have yet to see anything like this from GW.

    Reaper credits each sculptor in their online store.

    What era are we talking here?

    80ies to 90ies try searching, Nick Lund, Bob Olley, Aly Morrison and Trish Morrison

    I was hoping that there would be a spreadsheet or list somewhere detailing the sculptors for the models. This information has to be available somewhere (even if not conveniently in one place), because I often hear names associated with models (i.e. Juan Diaz's Daemonettes).

    I'd love to know who sculpted the Slann, Lord Kroak, Hellcannon, Naestra & Arahan's Forest Dragon, current Witch Elves, etc, etc.

    Perhaps our mighty Mage Lord @n810 might know. He always seems to have the right link for all occasions.

    For some reason GW rarely credits anyone with anything.
    (art, sculpts, authors) It must be a British thing.
    if GW was in the US there would be a whole page of credits.

    That really is quite a shame. It would be nice to see credit given where credit is deserved.

    Might be some arbitrary contract thing
