Hi from Mid Sussex
« on: 29 July 2014, 10:37:05 AM »
Hi, my name is Will, and I'm from Mid Sussex in the UK. Particular wargaming interests are Fantasy, Sci Fi, VSF, ACW, AWI, Ancients, and WWII. In practice though I spend a lot more time painting figures and playing boardgames than I do playing actual miniature wargames.

Current projects are building generic 18th century armies using figures from multiple copies of the boardgame Risk (300+ minis done, up to 900+ to go), painting up some Uncharted Seas starter fleets (Iron Dwarves done, Orcs, Humans, and Zombie Whales remain), and converting plastic figures for In Her Majesty's Name.

My unpainted lead and plastic collection stretches back over more than 20 years of gaming. I have actually painted up stuff after 20 years of ownership so it's all worth hanging on to.

Welcome to the LAF.  Some interesting projects, there.
Back from the dead, almost.

Welcome to LAF dayglowill.

Plenty of inspiration here.

If you're a 28mm Fantasy player, keep an eye in the upcoming (Next week) Mantic Games Kickstarter, it may interest you.

May you have a long and merry stay with us.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!
