About
I’m a common hobbyist, having painted miniatures sporadically since 1979, beginning with characters and monsters for D&D. I started devoting more substantial time to the hobby in 2006, and I expanded my painting efforts on the two fronts of both gaming and display/competition. Splitting my time between the two makes my progress very slow for each!
