Hi, I'm mostly a heroclix player. I have recently been painting warhammer fantasy figures and thought I might like to build some terrain etc. This looked like a good place to learn. Hey Rancid Twinkie, long time no see!

I used to play occasionaly at Checkpoint Charlies and GW West Van.

If you have seen Old School Terminators (from Space Hulk) and pointy nose Traitor Marines at either of these venues you might know me - or at least my Chaos / Damned army.

A - Yes there are, you can access them off the Mighty Miniatures main website by clicking on the Gallery button at the top of the page.
