Hi Y'all,

I'm DeafNala, aka Alan. I was browsing my way through Matakishi's Tea House when I stumbled across Tom's Pink Orcs, & followed the link to this site. I called out to me, whispering promises of interesting articles, inspiring photos, the fellowship of kindred spirits; I signed up anyway.

I haven't actually gamed in quite some time now. I'm primarily a painter of minis & maker of scenery pieces mostly for other folks [pigeons]. I've been doing this sort of thing now for the last 45 years or so [offically older than dirt]. About a year ago I did up a gaming table for Mordheim [4'X8' with extra pieces to swap in & out for variety's sake]. The little exercise in modelling thoroughly hooked me on the setting. It is one of the coolest games going, which is a major confession from someone who is frequently critical of G.W..

If I can ever convince my newly acquired camera to work, I'd enjoy sending along a photo or two t dazzle you mind [or not]. With my ability with things electronic [read idiot at work] this could take some time. Until then I'll try to contribute to the community as best I can.

Ciao,
DeafNala

Thanks for the welcome. I'm already enjoying being here: nice site & good fellows.
I just did a guilt trip on the pigeon I did the Mordheim table for. Mac is a VERY accomplished photographer. So I'm hoping to be able to have some pics & a bit of assistance posting them.

Current projects include doing up some Vampire/Empire scenery for W.H.F.B. & a Steam Punk version of Mordheim for the helluva it. I'll try the whining routine on these too, if my talks with the camera [from HELL] fail [again].

Welcome DeafNala! I hope your demon camera comes around. If nothing else would work, I'd recommend buying some garlic, or maybe some blessed water... although the water aspect of the latter might cause more damage than good - definitely a last ditch effort - As my papy always said "If you can't convert 'em, Kill 'em." Twisted Evil but seriously....

YES! cheers I can't wait to see that. I love steam punk, but haven't been able to figure out how I can implement it into my Mordheim city.

Enjoy,
