Hi guys,



My name is Andy and I make toy soldiers for a living.



Andy C Neilson

I make toy soldiers for a living too!
And I've been a professional military miniatures painter (historical artist ) since 1982.

Oh, and I'm a mother of a boy of 18.
Any other girl out there?

Now that is an interresting job, not the teaching part, if I could I'd much rather be in the field or at a museum....very interresting. That was always my dream career!!!! I guess there aren't to many jobs out there and too much travel, that is why I decided not to pursue it. Some times I wish I had...

Cheers

I am the associate dean for business programs at the Chicago campus of DeVry University. I also teach courses in business and technical writing, but I have an abiding interest in military history and a personal library of over 2,500 books. If I ever retire, I plan to open a used books store and have toy soldier displays in the window, and a big room in the back for dioramas.

Wow - This is an interesting thread - thanks for bringing it back Brad !

For those of you who dont know - I am LOBBYIST. Yep, one of them...

I spent many years working for the United States Congress and recently left about two years ago to find a job that could pay for this additiction of Toy Soldiers. I would say Andy Neilson should have a larger house in Hong Kong by now from my purchases

As a Lobbyist - represent many different clients in Washington, DC - everything from a Tank Manufacturer in Germany to Local Governments in Bolivia. My fields are mostly - Armed Services, Homeland Security, Aviation, Space, Appropriations and Foregin Affairs.

If ever in Washington, DC - give me a shout.

You serious about that minister thing? You mentioned it earlier but I didn't know if you were jerking my chain.

Maybe ministers are taking over the world...I just celebrated 10 years since my ordination day.

So let's use the proper titles here...

The Reverend Peter W. Reuss

(but perhaps Prince Peter, husband to HRH Shannon fits just as well)
