Hello everyone!!

I'm a warhammer player, and I have lot of vintage miniatures coming from 2nd edition of warhammer.

I collect orks and chaos mainly.

You can find my miniature site here:

What I added to Lexicanum

I added the pictures of many miniatures, picture of galaxy and a study on White Dwarf magazines.

What to add to Lexicanum

I think will be great to have for every troop or vehicle the pictures of all old and new miniatures, with release date. So we can track the evolution of models in GW during the years, and it can be a reference for people to know how old is a model.

Proposal for new navigation page

Two things are very bad in Lexicanum: 1) colors 2) navigation

I already started a thread on colors, hopefully it will end up in new skins, or changing the main one.

About navigation, the first time a user approaches the Lexicanum is totally lost, the main page is very bad in my opinion and should be improved. Here is a proposal of a better navigation system, similar to the "List of Lists" but more visual. I hope this will be adopted as the official one.


Template for miniature page

The following is an example of a template I use for the miniature pages. There are two parts.

The first part is in the main page describing the model or vehicle and contains:


All Miniatures


Then I create a page called Miniatures: XY, example: Miniatures: Freebooterz where the following text is present:

1st Edition

Freebooterz include:

  • Nob with powerclaw and kustom weapon: 070683/1
  • Renegade Mek with kustom weapon: 070683/2
  • Bad Doc with power claw: 070683/3
  • Freebooter Boy 1: 070683/4
  • Freebooter Boy 1: 070683/5
  • Ork Kaptain: 070683/6
  • Ork Pirate with cyborg body: 070683/7
  • Freebooter Stormboy: 070683/8

Note: Please add other editions, but be sure to keep the reference to WD, so we know the exact date in which the miniature was added to the catalog.
