Hi everyone !!
I just realized that I was not even introduced myself, forgive the rudeness (and my very bad English !!)
I call Eric, I'm French and I live close to Switzerland ..... I'm 50, and I am passionate about figures since .............. .... very long
painter rather than a player, I discovered the 10mm there a few years ago and I fell crazy about the quality of these small things
I practice almost all historical periods, but my favorite is the Napoleonic (yes, I am a french !!! ;)) but believe it or not, I have a soft spot for Wellington's army, do not tell my friends !!!!,  besides, and i looking forward to the arrival of new lines devoted to it

I take this message to congratulate you on the excellent quality of what I have seen here

see you soon

Thank you for your leniency !!!
If I understand your question, I do have a Mongol army in preparation for painting, but it is not with Pendrakens figurines, with a few civilians, general and Yurts ...... painting is expected next year .......

Hello and welcome.

Your English is better than most of our French.

Do you favour Wellington's Peninsula Army or the Waterloo one?

Hi Eric, welcome to the forum. I suspect you've already got an idea of what you've let yourself in for here! Hang your sanity on the coat rack with the rest and enjoy the good-natured and erudite lunacy :)
