Potential Companies to Pitch to: Games Workshop

Games Workshop create the small board games with figurines in large environments. Much like Heroclix, or the board game Risk, which are all also good options, however I think our world would be more suited to Games Workshop as they offer the environments and scale that our world has. I feel this could be a huge successes. The designs and audience is similar to what I expect from Wild-Life. My only issue with this is that is very hard to submit ideas to them, other than finding them at a convention in person. After looking hard, all I could find was the following information concerning freelance art at -http://jobs.games-workshop.com/current-vacancies/

Do you want to create fantastic art of the highest quality for Games Workshop products to tight deadlines?
Are you excited by illustrating the unique worlds of Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 into evocative battle scenes and vignettes whilst adhering strictly to Games Workshop’s intellectual property?
You will be able to provide faithful and accurate artwork that will be used in Games Workshop products. This will be on a freelance basis, to agreed deadlines. You will need basic knowledge of Games Workshop’s intellectual property and a desire to learn more. You will  also need a basic knowledge of the English language. (We will only use English in our communication to you.)
