20 years ago I used to love painting "little metal men" and playing the very first edition of what was to become the hugely successful Warhammer 40K game, so recently I decided to revisit my youth. So far this has consisted of going out and buying some minis, and then wonderful-wife going out and buying ALL THE MINIS IN THE WORLD, and a selection of paints and brushes. With a couple of hours each weekend to paint them, this is going to take a while. There they sit in the corner now... looking at me... judging me... Anyway, one thing that I've found motivational is the wealth of pictures and "how to" guides on other painters' blogs, so I decided to post some of my own humble efforts here. Hope you like 'em.

Stores

Where to get your hobby goods...

Where I've had any experience with these guys I'll try to put a balanced review

Games Workshop - the mothership, as if I had to point that out...

Forgeworld - if you happen to have, y'know, all the money in the world...

Wayland - good discount store - I've used them a couple of times with no problems

BitzBox - not tried them yet but looks like a useful resource
