Hello world of BOLS,
I have followed your articles for some while but have never ventured into your forums other than the links in your news threads.
I have been an avid GW gamer for 16 odd years, i play WFB, 40k and a mirriad of spin off specialist games they have released over the years i've been collecting. I have 6k points of O&G, 3k of Ogres, 2k of Word Bearers, 4k of 'Nids, 6k of Orks. Blood Bowl and Necro are my favourite games.
Recently my local gaming community has become somewhat stale and stagnent which coupled with my health deterioration has led to my enthusiasm towards the hobby to die a horrible death. I have Arthritis in my hands and this has meant i have slowly been unable to paint :(
I have a couple of questions that i would greatly appreciate any response too. I thought that i would fire them off and introduce myself at the same time.
Firstly does anyone have any tips/ideas of how i could make painting easier for myself? I have real issues with gripping paint brushes and also with cramps in my hands. Any advice would be much appreciated as i hate having all these unpainted mini's in my armies.
Secondly I have decided to part with some of my collection to make my life easier to manage with the painting side of things. Am I allowed to post a thread here about what im wanting to sell? If not then any advice on where i could advertise or sell my models would be very useful.
I live in the UK so if you have any advice about shops, materials and tools please bare this in mind.
Thanks in advance
