Hello and Howdy!
Posted by paintminion on Thursday, October 11, 2007 10:22 AM

Hi everyone, I'm from the miniatures gaming hobby---mostly a painter not a gamer though.  I also do busts, and historicals, and...welll...almost anything...even a race car once for a customer.

I handle the miniatures hobby events at Gen Con as a volunteer coordinator...which means I both coordinate my volunteers and I'm a volunteer myself.

I'm also a member of MMSI, Military Miniatures Society of Illinois, and go to their show each October...getting in gear for it this weekend as a matter of fact.

Mostly I paint figures in the 28-54mmm range, all with acrylics, no airbrush, at the display or competition level.

I'm looking here for inspiriation, knowledge, products, and of course a new avenue to show off and see others work.

So hello!  What's everyone up to?  Better go find out!  Also, I'll post my pics of my Pegaso Amazon/Gladiatrix up in the models section...

FreedomEagle, you're in my neck of the woods...do you know about the MMSI show?  An event that shouldn't be missed for any modeler!
