Hello my name is John and I have lurked here for a few months but decided it was time to out myself. I used to game back in the 80's and collected DnD figures then eventially Citadel minuatures. I started getting into WH40k when the first addition of Genestealers came out in 88 or so. I eventially got out of gaming, joined the Marines and got on with my life. A few years ago my son found the a Games workshop in our local mall and him and I started getting back into minature painting. My son games but I just paint, read the books, and generally just try to have fun. Some of my Space Marines may not be exactly codex but hey I enjoy them so who cares. Anyway I took some pictures of some Orks I painted for my son so they will be my first submission. Thanks,
