Letter to GW

Hoi,

While I have been painting miniatures for what seems to me ages, it's actually about 17 years or so, it was 2nd edition 40K from GW that got me into gaming. I still vividly remember my first game and relish it as my first feat of Glory on the field of well the tabletop. Now for years now I have stopped playing the regular flagship GW games for a whole bucket-load of reasons, yet each time I try to put this in writing it ends up with me ranting at GW. So before I start doing that again here's a video of someone who put the finger on the sore-spot in a very decent and constructive way. Check it out and judge for yourselves:

Buildings galore

Hoi,

Just a small update today, I finished some more Dystopian Wars buildings. Here are my radar station and fortress. Both are done in a rather darkish colour, since I wanted them to look gloomy and foreboding.

Hoi,

Well, Paul's post recently reminded me of the fact that I too had one of these nice ladies lying around. Just like Paul I do not fancy the angel wings and besides no clear way of attaching them was provided so I decided to leave them off. Yet without them I needed some more parts to paint and create a decent focal point, yeah I know loads of corny jokes about there being rather too much focal points on this mini anyway, but I'm not gonna make them.

So I added a Zvezda Hoplon and a HäT gladius to create my version of the Greek Goddess of Athena, or any other suitable Greek fighting lady. I'm sorry the pictures are a bit fuzzy but perhaps that's just for the best right?

Cheers Sander
