Blanche: The Rise of Grimdark

The official, authorised biography of renowned fantasy and science fiction artist and illustrator, John Blanche. Full colour, 218-page publication by Wombat Wargames.

John’s career, which includes an unprecedented forty-year collaboration with Games Workshop, spans five decades. During this time, his work has adorned a plethora of book covers and interiors, record covers, postcards and posters, while also serving as concepts for a swathe of wargaming miniatures, often inspiring whole new ranges of figures. John Blanche is one of the most remarkable and prolific fantasy and science fiction illustrators of his, or any other, generation. This book, his official and authorised biography, tells the story of the master of grimdark himself, the visionary that is John Blanche.

This book has been written with the intention of offering an insight into John, the person. So, in addition to copies of many of his wonderful illustrations, some previously unpublished, there are pictures of some of his models too, as well as an extensive selection of John’s personal photographs, which document both John and his family.
