White Dwarf #16 Cover Art


Cover Art By Les Edwards

Les Edwards is a Gawd among Games Workshop artists. If you are familiar with the golden era of White Dwarf or the Heroquest game you will know his work well. I like this cover but it really is not him at his best. The brown background, the minimal detail, certain rather prominent symbolism... but there are a number of cool things about this cover. The snake animating from the warriors shield immediately make me want to add it to my game as a magic item and with a bit of cut and paste I can show it to my players as it attacks them. But this is just the start of a Bee-u-tea-full friendship with Les Edwards work.
