Hello
My name is Aly Morrison and I am a wargames butterfly...

There I've said it...

I don't need any help I like being this way, just show me lots of pretty things to flutter around.

All the best. Aly

Let's face it that's not a particularly rare disease around here, I have a pretty chronic case myself.

Welcome  :)

Yes Elk101
you are one of the few people old enough to remember...
I am the Aly Morrison of Marauder Miniatures...
I'm not so sure about the fame though  :)

Nice to 'meet' you Aly! I was always a fan, especially of your orcs. I'm not so much old as I started young  :D

What are you up to at the moment, besides Great War miniatures, which I have been eyeing up lately?

Cheers, Steve

I remember, too. Happy to meet you here, Aly (or was it Alaistar? :)), always loved your work for Marauder and Citadel.

welcome and hope you don't flutter away :)

Hi guys
I am still doing Great War Miniatures, although Dave and I have had a bit of a rest , the Alma game last year nearly broke us ,it's not our day job and we are not as young as we used to be.

I have also added some new stuff to my Shiny Toy Soldier range , a sub range called Little Britons.

I still work for Citadel (GW) but you probably won't see me posting on any fantasy/sci-fi topics, when I leave work at night I leave it both physically and emotionally , I prefer to war game the 19th and 20th century with a smattering of 15th,16th,17th, and 18th thrown in (I told you I was a butterfly).

People who visit my house are often surprised to find absolutely no fantasy figures what so ever...just a collection of miniatures covering every obscure war you can think of ..most "just started" or "nearly finished" plus lot of shiny traditional toy soldiers and a collection of model cars from the Tintin comics ( one day I will get them into a wargame ). ;D

Only my my mother calls me Alastair(and my girlfriend when I am in trouble) ;)

All the best. Aly

Pft, that's only about half a millenium, there's so much more history to get distracted by.  ;)

I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!

Hi Aly and welcome.

Unfortunately one of my unfinished projects consists of your wonderful 1914 Germans. Hey ho, one day I'll have done enough to face them off against my Russian horde  ::)

Welcome Aly
I understand the thing with the fantasy miniatures
