    on the numerous occasions i got to speak to Trish during her time at forgeworld she was always such an absolute delight, I'm genuinely heartbroken so much of the work she produced for them isn't available for sale anymore despite it being some of the finest kits they ever did. Atleast I was fortunate enough at the time to buy some of them.

    I immediately had to share this with my Mother, who can very much relate to Trish working as long as she has in creative fandoms. Her work always reminded me of the artist Brian Froud, who worked with Jim Henson on Labyrinth and Dark Crystal. I always find that organic design to be fascinating. Thank you for the contribution to our toy soldiers Trish. It would not be the same without your massive impact on the worlds of Games Workshop

    I've been looking forward to this one so much!
    Trish is an amazing sculptor and artist. I share a love of the mythic woodlands and moors and that's how I ended up accidentally winning a one of a kind miniature sculpted by her by entering an Albion Fenbeast in an oldhammer painting competition showcasing her miniatures that she also judged!
    It's one of my dearest possessions, I would really love to do something with it, but I'm terrified of ruining it 😅
    Thank you so much for this interview, an absolute joy.

    I'm blown away by how genuinely nice all the guests are. You really get the feeling of early GW that they were having fun and that sense of humour came through in the models before it became properly grim dark or high fantasy. There was always an element of dark humour in Fantasy and I miss that. Is there not some absolute nob jockey who's also done something great in the hobby!?

    Fantastic, fantastic interview! Revelations within seconds as my Trish Lore was apparently so wanting that I had no idea she was a fellow Scot! Some great anecdotes - no surprise though as her Facebook page is an absolute treasure trove of them. One of the all time greats and responsible for so so many of my favourite miniatures of all time. I absolutely must find the time to pick and paint some of her HarrowHyrst range as well, so much character.
