Title: Hi

Just thought I should introduce myself.
I'm another of the NTF group from Norwich.

Generally I can be found on either Freedom (Heroes) or Protector (Villains) although I do have a couple of toons in the mid twenties on Infinity.  Generally though my activity has been somewhat curtailed over the last year cause I've been concentrating on miniture figure painting.  I expect it's cost me two or three level fifty toons  :)

Also I expect I'm going to spend quite a bit of time on Hellgate London given how long I spent on Diablo 2, although I won't be going near that till late Nov/Dec.  Otherwise my current painting projects would be dooooooomed !!

Well I promised Naam I'd post a pic or two of the figure I was working on and this way I don't have to meaage Yeti with the url to my latest CMoN post while he's playing CoH.  Anyway this one is a bit larger than my usual stuff being a 90 mil figure so about 10 cm's from foot to top of the helmet.  The steps were rebuilt from some square steps that came with the figure, the rest of the base was made from a CD and paper fro the carpet. (I bought the wood plinth)

Some of the contrast is a lost due to overexposure.  I got a new light tent yesterday and haven't really adjusted stuff for it.  And so you know it probably took about 45 to 60 hours over about a month to compete.

Here's a large pic
