Hi all,

I have painted this figure today (Or havn't finished yet - base and shoes are missing... ), which I get to my 14th birthday, two days ago. Should be an english sailor for my high seas games. I hope you like it

I have him - he's a lovely figure. He'll do very well for your High Seas games.

Happy birthday by the way. And may I say that for 14, your painting is brilliant!

A really beautiful painting and that in the age

I second everything above.

At 14, you must be our youngest member (most gamers your age delve deeply in Warhammer or Warhammer 40.000 instead of historicals)?

That is awesome for a 14 year old I actually only got into gaming with the Warhammer boxed rules and a few citadel miniatures at 15!

My painting aint that good at 40

Well done, excellent, lovely..............

Well, I am very interested in historical moments. Also, my two brothers are playing historical tabletops like I do. My two siblings are writing some books about Prussian Flags and Germanic mythology.
I've got some historical books which I get from the library in which my dad is working (very cool! if I need a book, I'll tell my father the title and in the next morning I'll get it

)
So I growed up in a family of historical freaks!
All told, I like the historical battles more than fantasy ones. I changed fast from warhammer to historical
Tabletops...

But now the second pirate - hope you like it.

Great

I started historical gaming at about 13-14 years, too, Airfix 1:72 Napoleonics

Got hooked on history because I read Asterix and my parents dragged me around to historical sites all over western Europe when we were on car vacation with a caravan.

Very nice painting, wish I could produce such quality so fast... some people just seem to have it in their wrist...
