In my previous blog I wrote about how speedpaint helped me get a lot of mini's painted in not much time, and how that got me to decide I was going to practise my mini-painting skills so I would be able to make prettier mini's. Nothing chanced with my decision and I have gotten even more determined. I started practising and I discovered I really enjoy painting eyes. I still suck at it, but that is why it is called practise.
One other thing I did was sort my stash, my box of unpainted mini's, the Pile of Shame or Opportunity (depending on my mood). I discovered to my horror that I did not really have mini's I wanted to practise on.

When I started DM-ing a while back (december 2014 was my maiden session) I also got interested in miniatures. They enhance the mood on the map, even if that map is just a big piece of paper with marker-scribbles where the trees are, and give both the players and myself a good sence of what is going on. I already had a few mini's and some paint, courtesy of a friend who decided he did not like to paint Warhammer armies after all. So I visited the Warhammer shop, got a nice dwarf mini (that I still have and love), some instructions and a new hobby was now part of my life. A hobby that I have had a love-hate relationship with until recently.

yeah, I broke my website.... again...
But this time I have a back-up, which turned out useless but I still have all the articles so those will come back.
And hopefully you will be able to comment on my articles, which is what the change that broke the website was about.
sigh...
