Hiya, Olly!

Welcome to our little webizen!

Hopefully ill be posting some pictures of my stuff soon painted etc. and just wanted to contribute something..Main interests are WW2 Western front, The old classic Nato vs. Warsaw and of course modern conflicts.

We're ready to see 'em as soon as you can post 'em! We do love to see all them pics around here!

... hope to be getting to know some of you and gaining more helpfull tips.

I've been playing with little toy tanks (as my mother still refers to the hobby) since I bought my first GHQ T-34s and KVs in the early/mid 1970s. I've got scads and scads of WW2 -- Soviets, US (MTO and ETO), French, Italians, a few Brits, and a small pile of Romanians that are still waiting to get painted up. I have cold-war and modern US and Soviets in large quantities, as well as a few modern French and Chinese. My larger armies are several hundreds of pieces each at least -- never did actually count my Soviets.

Yet after some three decades of painting and gaming, I have never derived as much enjoyment from the hobby as I have since joining this forum. My painting and modelling skills have greatly improved, I've met several folks here that I have gamed with, some several times, and I now have the fun of showing off my work, and re-telling (and so re-living) my wargames for my own enjoyment as well as the occasional entertainment of other interested hobbyists.

It's a great place to hang out.

So go paint up some USMC, take 'em out to battle, take a few pics, and show-and-tell all about it. We be jes' achin' to know!
