I've been a BattleTech player since 1988...must have been all those great 80's cartoons - Starblazers, Transformers, GI Joe, and others - that "guided" me in the direction of Mechs. Never actually touched a paint brush until 2001...heck, we didn't even use miniatures; the cardboard cutouts and scraps of paper were the units of choice!!!
In 2001, I joined my current gaming group (including Fanjoy and Chewie), and the awesomely painted minis that were fielded in our battles inspired me to pick up a brush and give it a shot. 2+ years later, it's now a nightly ritual to paint, put together, convert, read TRO's/FM's, or do something miniatures related...I guess you can say that I'm addicted!!!
The picture is of me (in the red shirt) and Bill Shuler (Warzy) in front of IWM when I visited during Origins last year.
