Joe Dever is the creator of the bestselling Lone Wolf adventure books and novels. He is the
creator and editor of the creatures, characters, and locations referenced in The Lone Wolf Poster
Painting Book.
Gary Chalk is the illustrator of The Lone Wolf Poster Painting Book.
Internet Edition published by Project Aon. This edition is intended to reflect the complete graphic
and text content of the original version. Changes made, such as to correct incorrect or
inconsistent spelling, punctuation and grammar have been noted in the Errata section.
Note: (1) The original layout for the book is rather unusual in that it is literally a series of posters
stapled together; the rear sides of the posters are blank. Rather than present this identically in this
Project Aon edition, we have elected instead to present the posters on consecutive pages rather
than recreate the original print layout, which would look confusing in an electronic format.
(2) Due to the size of the original book and illustrations, this file is presented using A3-sized pages
(297 x 420mm), the size and shape of two landscape A4 pages, one atop the other. While a
standard international paper size, it is unlikely that a home printer will be able to output this page
size.
Also included as of 23 July 2005 is a copy of the competition form that originally came with the
book. This A4-sized sheet of paper has been reproduced after the back cover of The Lone Wolf
Poster Painting Book, with both sides of the form reproduced on one page.
Publication Date: 05 July 2006

THE CONJURATION
Not all wizards are as expert as Banedon, the young wizard who
has aided Lone Wolf in a number of his perilous adventures. In this
case, the wizard appears to have summoned something a little
unexpected with his latest spell. Members of Sommerlunds
Magicians Guild wear blue robes decorated with golden designs,
the exact shade of blue denoting the rank of the wearer. Some of
Magnamunds wizards, however, prefer costumes of their own
design in a variety of exotic colours.
NOODNICS
Noodnics are large intelligent rodents, about two feet in height,
who appear in the Lone Wolf adventure Fire on the Water. They
live in the tunnels which have been driven through the mountains
surrounding Hammerdal, the capital of Durenor. Clad in multi-
coloured scraps and patches, their numerous colonies survive by
stealing anything they can lay their paws on, however large or
unwieldy. Their fur varies from fawn and brown to light shades of
grey, while their clothing is made from whatever bits and pieces
they have been able to filch from passing travellers, with complete
disregard for colour or pattern.
A DURENESE KNIGHT
The kingdom of Durenor is Sommerlunds greatest ally in the fight
against the evil forces of the Darklords. This Durenese knight is
typical of the nobles of the Lastlands when dressed for battle. Over
his armour the knight wears a surcoat which bears the arms of his
family, as does the cloth trapper covering his warhorse. As these
heraldic devices were used to identify the wearer in the heat of
battle, bright, clear colours were used. If you have trouble deciding
which colours to use, see if you can find a book on heraldry, or
have a look at the examples shown on the maps in the Lone Wolf
adventures or in the pictures in The Magnamund Companion.
A MOUNTED DRAKKAR
This mounted Drakkar is the Darklords answer to the chivalry of
the Lastlands. The Drakkarim favour black steel weapons and
clothing in harsh colours. If you plan to mount this and the
previous poster as a pair, it would be a good idea to paint the
frames of both using the same colours. The borders can be painted
to resemble marble or onyx which comes in a wide variety of
colours, not only white and grey, but different shades of pink and
red too. Jade and jadeite occur naturally in many shades of green or
even yellow, so it might be a good idea to paint the frames before
starting on the pictures, so that the colours you use will go quite
happily with those used on the figures.

Before you start to colour in the posters, they must be detached from the book. Open the
book at the centre pages and, using the blade of a pair of scissors or a blunt knife,
carefully bend back the staples which hold the pages to the cover. Then gently pull the
posters free from the staples, being careful not to crease or tear them.
If you want to make a particularly fine job of your posters, the central creases can be
removed by ironing the posters flat on the unprinted side. Please ask before you borrow
the iron.
Painting Hints
As you can see, the posters in this book are full of intricate detail. If you use the wrong
sort of paint to colour them in, you can cover all this, ending up with a flat, uninteresting
result. Poster colour and powder paint should both be avoided as they become opaque on
drying and will totally cover all the black lines used in the pictures. The best colours to
use are transparent. Crayons and Caran DAche pencils (the ones you wash over with
water) are both suitable, as are coloured inks, water colour, and felt-tip pens, although the
latter are probably not very good for colouring in large areas.
When you begin to colour in a poster, start with the large areas first. Its quite a good idea
to use pale colours in the background and brighter colours in the foreground, allowing the
contrast to increase the depth of the picture. As you are using transparent colours, you
can always paint one layer over another to create a richer, darker colour. This is a better
way to paint that putting down one heavy layer of colour, because you can change and
modify colours as you go along.
When you are trying to decide what colours to use for shields, clothes, flags and so on,
you will find that many of these items are mentioned in the Lone Wolf books and The
Magnamund Companion. For natural objects such as rocks, tree trunks, and plants, go
and have a look at the real thing. If this isnt possible, look for suitable colour
photographs in magazines, or use the reference books in your local library to give you
ideas.

OGRONS IN AMBUSH
Ogrons come from the Free State of Caron, but are frequently
found serving as mercenaries in the numerous armies that plague
the Stornlands. Larger than humans, Ogrons have blue skins, often
heavily tattooed, and love to wear bright barbaric colours. Their
large size and great strength make them formidable opponents.
KRAAN ATTACK
Kraan are vile, reptilian creatures whose speed in the air has made
them popular with servants of the Darklords. Often appearing to be
black against the sky, these creatures are, in fact, to be found in a
number of colours, including grey and dark olive, while some have
skins tinted with dirty mauve. The rider is a Drakkar warrior, an
evil human with weapons and armour of black steel.
