Warhammer Dwarf Runesmith | Dwarfen Mountain Holds | The Old World | Games Workshop

Meet the Warhammer Dwarf Runesmith

In the rugged halls of Dwarfen Mountain Holds, a stoic Runesmith stands as a weathered beacon of craft and resolve. Clad in heavy armour that gleams with a faint forge-polish, this wise leader carries the weight of tradition into every clash on the field. The kit includes two bearded heads for variety and the option to equip a pair of ritual hammers, letting you craft a pose that fits your army's narrative. You can also choose to arm the Runesmith with a blazing rune held in tongs or tucked beneath one arm in an ornate tome—two ways to signal potent forge-magic on the tabletop.

Crafted as a multipart plastic model, this kit is designed for hobbyists and tabletop players who enjoy both assembly and painting. It arrives as 10 plastic components and a Citadel 25mm Square Base, giving you a sturdy, ready-to-paint miniature to drop into your Dwarfen Mountain Holds battalions. As with many Citadel miniatures, painting becomes part of the journey, letting you tailor the metallic armour, rune-work, and weapon glow to your preferred color scheme.
