28 magazine focuses on unique and personal visions of the various Warhammer settings, especially relating to Warhammer 40,000 skirmish games and the darker aspects of Age of Sigmar. While we do not have any strict criteria for the articles, and are always looking for reader input, below is a list of the basic article types included in each issue:

The Forge – tutorials and guides to painting, converting, building and sculpting.

Interviews – interviews with artists, game designers, writers and members of the community.

Essays – articles about, but not limited to, game design, the background of the various settings, the history of a game, or how to plan a campaign.

Events – spotlight on various event games arranged by hobby enthusiasts.

Artist Focus – a detailed look at a particular artist’s work.

When writing your article, try to be as clear as possible:

• Do not assume that the reader is familiar with the topic. 
• Include an introductory paragraph that explains what you are writing about and why. 
• Include a conclusion paragraph summarizing your article.
• Include captions for any pictures you submit, along with where they fit in the article.

Photography

When taking photographs of your miniatures they need to be of a standard suitable for publishing in a magazine – we are looking for well-lit, high-resolution images that show your models clearly, either on a plain white or black background, or in front of some nicely painted scenery for more atmospheric shots.

Fortunately, for those who are not professional photographers, Games Workshop has been kind enough to provide an excellent guide on photographing your miniatures, even with a camera phone:
