Dear all,
i would like to use this opportunity to introduce myself to the community of this very nice board. After being a long-time lurker, I finally decided to give it a try and registered.
I have been enarmored with the miniature painting hobby since 1996, mostly with the GW sort of games. I tried several others, but sadly the player base was not there for prolonged gaming. My current playgroup are very focused on GW and do no want to stray even a single step, fearing that their investment of time and money might be diminished by trying out other things *sigh*
Since about a year my interest in "exotic" tabletops (compared to mainstream lines like GW) has increased. After a short but enjoyable tryst with Flames of War I began to walk into the historic miniature gaming territory. Since a few years I am a regular visitor of the CRISIS and sometimes the TACTICA. I really enjoy seeing all those glorious displays, forever envious of all that space all you guys must have for that giant tables :)
Currently I plan to paint (haha) a SAGA Viking warband, but that project gets derailed by all the other nice figures I found in my storage after moving to a new city...
Right now I do not play any game seriously, but rather enjoy the ability to paint miniatures that I like, instead of feeling forced to "finish the army before the first game".
I am looking forward to some fruitful discussions and a colorful community.
Cheers, Nukleon.

Welcome to the LAF. So I finally whittled you down - can only be to the benefit of both sides. ;)
Rather nice work on the Porks, BTW. Good to see them together after all!
