Ever since then, despite the heat, summer always puts me in the mood to paint miniatures.
A blog for all my miniatures-related musings, battle reports, cries of strangled frustration, etc.

July 4th Memories
I am 16 years old, sitting at the desk in my bedroom as my Dad works the grill outside. I've got the Twilight Zone marathon playing on my six-inch black and white on KTLA (this is back before SciFi/SyFy/PsiPhy/whatever bought up the rights) and I'm working on some 15mm Napoleonic Prussians (the first of many forays into historical miniatures - this one didn't work out too well in the end). It's a sweltering L.A. day but I've got my desk lamp on and I'm painting.
Ever since then, despite the heat, summer always puts me in the mood to paint miniatures.

You would have enjoyed yesterday's 4th. We had a cool snap and it was a comfy 80 during the day and a very cool 60-something in time for fireworks. :)
