Hi there,
I've been pretty obsessed with miniatures since I was in my teens, occasionally, but not quite ever giving up the habit. It's now probably as bad as ever!
I have particualry fine collections of Judge Dredd/Cthulhu/Fantasy/SF/Wild West/Pirates/Pulp/Slaine/Celtic etc. etc. etc. I usually paint many of the figures for my weekly role-playing session and use that as an excuse to buy more and more miniatures :p
This year, having bought the rights to some of the old Metal Magic range (of which I've always been a huge fan), I've used it as a basis to launch my own modest miniatures range, with some new sculpts by Josef Ochmann, Kev Adams, and myself, which has been very rewarding (well, spiritually speaking).
Other than that, I have a day job (i.e. the one that pays me) and way too many things on my hands at any one time.
All the best
