Hi to all -New member.
Just came across the forum by chance and it seems great.
Been modelling for... too long to mention, but those in London may remember 'Beatties' in Holborn - I used to do most of the models for them.
Also, one of the original painters for Games Workshop when they only had three stores.
It used to pass the endless hours when I was in the Military (Those who know, will understand)
Gave up modelling for a number of years - possibly 20, but one day, woke up and decided 'should I get into Fish and Aquariums or go back to modelling? - The latter won as it doesn't entail cleaning filters.
Hope to chat to most of you soon and love the great work I've seen on here.
Cheers
Jon

Re: Hi to all
Wow, someone from the Oldhammer days, cool - I'm slowly getting back into doing some mini-painting after a short break of 25 years.
