Hi,
I just joined the forum and thought I should introduce myself. I am a technophobe and have never done this before so if I should do something impolite please forgive me as this is new. I collected GI Joe's for a number of years and that hobby some how ended up with collecting Toy Soldiers. Mainly, it took up less space and that made the wife happy. My area of interest is 19th century British Imperialism. I collect most manufacturer's including Conte, Trophy, Imperial, Little Legion and Britains both matte and gloss. Primary subjects are the Indian Mutiny, Isandlwana, and the Sudan and Afghan campaigns. I read most of the books on the period from Ian Knight and Mike Snook as well as a decent collection of Osprey. I have started casting some of my own figures and making various figures from other kits. I hope to learn a lot from the forum as my painting leaves a lot to be desired.
Thanks for having me,
John
