Some of these models were plated with 18k gold and each Games Workshop store got one of them.
The model had a special base also in which it was written: White Dwarf / XXX / 1977-2007. (”/” means that a line is changed.)

7th : Warhammer : Age Of Sigmar Gotrek(only) miniature.
Box not blister!
Called : ”Gotrek Gurnisson”.
Sculptor : Brian Nelson.
(Official) Painter : Anja Wettergren.
Released : June 2019 in Black Library Live – the biggest one-day event in the Black Library calendar.
Gotrek stands victorius over a pile of dead skaven, the Master Rune of Kragg Blackhammer held in his left hand, the FyresteelGreataxe Zangrom-Thaz held in his right. Though not a Fyreslayer, Gotrek’s dyed orange hair and beard clearly link him visually to his kinspeople from the Mortal Realms.
Brian Nelson says :
The shoulder pad is based on a Stormcast Eternals design. In the story it belonged to one of Gotrek’s acquaintances and I liked the idea that he’s started to integrate himself in the Mortal Realms picking up bits of wargear here and there.
His new Axe shares design elements with those wielded by the Fyreslayers, such as the burning brazier in the head. I added a dwarfen knotwork to the axe head to hint back to Gotrek’s past in the World-that-Was.
From the front you can see Gotrek’s missing left eye – he lost it the the story Wolf Riders , written way back in 1989. The story would be later featured in TrollSlayer.
Gotrek’s dispay base features mounts of dead skaven. The model also comes with a 32mm base for gaming.
Anja Wettergren says :
When painting Gotrek, I used quite a light colour scheme so that he would stand out of his dark base.
I used Kislev Flesh for the basecoat of his skin, then shaded it down by carefully glazing and blending the colours in to get a smooth texture to the skin.
Lastly, I allied some very thin glazes of red to the areas of skin I wanted to look a bit more gnarly, such as around his missing eye.
When painting his tatoos, I practiced on a piece of paper first, identifying the basic shapes and paying attention to the negative space(the distance and shape between the lines) as well as the lines. I used a neutral light grey to carefully sketch out the design on the figure before refining it with darker colour of the tatoos. I also mixed in a bit of the skin tone with the tatoo colour to make it look more natural.
Also for the occasion a small spot(video)-teaser was released by Warhammer TV in youtube. Here is the link :
