Bonjour !
« on: 13 April 2022, 09:49:54 AM »
Bien le bonjour !

I'm a french miniature painter and player. I've entered the miniature games worlds since I'm old enough to play, my father being a Napoleonic / Bloodbowl / Confrontation / Warmachine player. I've painted my first vampire at 8 and never stopped since then.

I'm playing a lots of different games, but I totally put the blame on my side job at the magazine Ravage for which I test and write articles about games. I love both historical, fantasy and scifi styles and I tend to play more skirmish games than large battles (with some exceptions).

I'm currently playing : Star Wars Legion, One Page Rules games (Grimdark Future and Age of Fantasy), Carnevale, Test of Honour and running a campaign of Frostgrave at my local club.

From some times, I scratchbuild, paint and play with my partner but she does not like games where we just try to put every other models down. We played Rangers of Shadow Deep and are currently playing Sellswords and Spelllslingers. We aim to play Hardwired (now known as Exploit Zero?) and 5 parsecs from Home.

I also love to write so I'm managing a blog on which I'm talking about painting, reviewing games, taling battle reports and so on. In french... sorry for that but I can't find time enough to it both in french and english.

I've discovered this forum thanks to somes fellow companions of Warmania (french miniature forum) and after somtimes looking at the gorgeous projects of people here, I've decided to join you.
