Title: Hello From France
Post by: zap86 on 23 June 2020, 12:56:44 PM
Hi guys,

I am taking a few minutes to introduce myself. I live in the middle of France, came to (war)games and miniatures since i was a kid with plastic cyclist my father painted for me almost 50 years ago...
Then went to my own paintings and modelings, and now with range a figures from 6mm to 28 mm, in all periods and type of games, mainly historical.

I just bought BKC (4) and will probably try my first game with friends next Saturday with 6mm figures...

And DO bring a bit of Gallic expertise and good taste to bear when the discussion swerves into how English cooking is the best in the world (I know, I know...).
