dear readers,

as most of you I did make and paint models when I was a little brat. I have painted the last 17 years tons of games workshop armies as a so called semi proffesional painter, so I painted lot's of armies and also built lots of dioramas and all..
But....
here is the problem , I really am into WW II modelling again and really bought tons of kits of infantry and armor. The problem is that I was never content with my endresults though everyone really liked my work and I have won lot's of prices at painting competitions as well, but I myself never really like my work. So I decided to sell all of my paint and bought tons of new paint, thus I spend a forune on the modelmaster paint from italeri, thinner based paints so to speak. So I am off for a head new start so to speak.
I am sure that in due time, I will post some of the pieces I will make, can't wait on your comments.
take care,


Alco

Hi invictis, welcome You are going to love it here :-)
I'm intrigued, you must be a very good painter, but not satisfied? I was a little dissatisfied with my work, when I first joined. With all the help and encouragement I recieved I have managed to turn that around and I am definately getting better :-)

Hey Invictus, welcome aboard. From what you say about yourself, I have a feeling you'll be givng out more advice then taking. You're winning prizes with your figure and vehicle painting, that's pretty darn good in my book.
