Greetz from Flanders
« on: March 20, 2011, 08:21:31 PM »
Hi,

Firstly :my real name is danny, Zizi666 is a reference to 2 bands I was listening to in my youth :
ZZTop & Iron Maiden.
Nothing religious/satanic about it, I'm an atheïst after all.

I started wargaming in about 1990 or '91, but dabbled in plastic models since I was 12

Everything changed on that glorious day I noticed a commercial poster for Space Hulk.
bought a box, received a flyer to the Red Barons wargame society http://www.redbarons-bylandt.be/ with it and I was left with a new habbit. :D
I consider myself an average painter (not competition stuff) and I'm trying to upgrade the quality through some nice basing.
I also like to build the odd scenery piece now and then.

Main interests : WW2, Sci-fi, Zombies, Card modelling
other interests : most historical gaming (except napoleonic), Warmachine, Hero-/Horrorclix, Wings of War

Working weekend night shifts would seem to leave me lots of spare time during weeks, but strange sleep patterns and another habbit called 3D-gaming causes lots of painter block.  :-[

I created some albums for those interested :

BTW : ANY comment is appreciated. So please, don't hold back if you think I missed the ball on something  :)
