I finally got back into modelling & painting miniatures after about twenty or so years. I used to play 40K pretty much exclusively, now I just paint the minis and look for models to build. I joined up after reading numerous articles and blogs here. Looks like there's all kinds of new things to try with my little plastic dudes.

I'm currently stripping and repainting my entire Space Marine company... from 21 years ago. All 10 squads plus officers, techmarines, chaplains, medics and the like. Now that I have the patience to do them right it's time to repair what I did incorrectly and go from there. When I'm not hunched over the painting bench I'm either playing ice hockey or plotting doom from the confines of my office cubicle.

The worst part of it all is that I may have lost the one tank I could afford (a first-edition Predator) during one of my many moves in the past couple of years. Argh. Well, I guess I can keep searching for it. I have pretty much everything else, so it's around here somewhere...

I also enjoy seeing this on my sidebar:
