Thread: Hey up..

    Smile Hey up..

    Hey fellas,

    To be honest i've never played the game but i've been painting Games workshop miniatures for a few years now. I find it thoroughly enjoyable, although photographing them in the outdoors is my favourite aspect...really gives you a sense of scale and adds a certain realism.

    Anyway, thanks for having me and take it easy

    Alasdhair- Hey man glad you like Gandalf (he was one of the first figures), yeah i could see myself getting into gaming. I only ever got as far as the tutorial, but it's just making the time at the mo.

    I've got plenty of pics to upload, i'll gradually share them heh i've painted a variety of models; beast men, dwarves, rangers, goblins, orcs, zombies...

    I enjoy the fantasy genre..myth, magic...all that jazz. I've been planning a multi-layered diorama to display my figs in, gonna be a huge project (along time coming) but i look forward to starting. I'll be sure to keep you posted.

    Hi V

    I'm also interested in seeing your photos. I have this picture of you taking your minis on little outings to find different backdrops.
