By way of introduction.
« on: May 30, 2010, 07:00:31 PM »
Hello to everyone. My name is George, I am 45 and have been gaming and painting miniatures since I was 12. I am interested in many genres from science fiction to fantasy and historical. I collect multiple scales and periods from those areas as well. I live in western Canada at the beginning of the Alaska highway with my wife/parter of 10 years and our three children and one cat. current projects are painting some starships from Starfleet battles, some Perry plastic Napoleonic infantry for Song of Drums and Shako's. I am also working on some plastic 100 years war figures in 20mm as well. Thanks to everyone for having me aboard.  :D

Cheers.
GeorgeD

Welcome to the LAF :)
Sounds like you're the right one for this place ;)
I suppose you're not another fugitive, are you? ;)

Nice to have you aboard!

Thanks guys. I have a tendency not to stick with any one project for too long. it means unfortunately that there is lots of stuff on my worktable that is in varying states of completion. As to being a fugitive, it depends on your definition. I am just attempting to escape reality as usual. lol

Cheers.

Escaping reality is perfectly fine ;)
I was referring to some other new members who fled their former forum and ended up here, looking for a new home ;)

Pretty dreary here Bako. 17C, with cloudy skies.  It was supposed to be sunny all weekend, but that never came to pass :(

Sounds more or less what it's been here, random and heavy rain fall though.
