I don’t want to be rude…. but… on April 1st such an article could be seen as….

Not saying that it is but maybe release it a day later? 😉

Also, sign me up. If you’re willing to risk your (or Sams) eyesight on my writing XD

So, I’ve been involved in this community for many years, joining backstage the very day the guys announced it. I’ve often thought about how I could contribute and give a bit back, but I have a very busy work schedule and struggle for time.

I do have a couple of things I have wanted to write about though, one in particular.

The pressure to be good. I see it a lot, ‘that paint job is so good I don’t know why I bother’ and so on. As an average painter myself, I think its important that we don’t set standards too high for everyone. Some are fantastic painters, writers and modelers, inventive GMs and so on, that is great and I love seeing all those contributions. We don’t all have to be that good though.

Can’t give any sort of timeline for when I could write an article like that, I have to fit things in with general life,  but if you are interested let me know.

I’d like to offer if that’s cool

I used to run a blog for the local Hackspace – more electronics, motors, robots that kind of thing – but it kind of fizzled out last year after about five years. I kind of miss it. But I’ve a few things in the pipeline which means I can’t publish articles every few days (I averaged about 12 articles a month).

I’d love to do something similar though; I just went from 3d printing virgin to building my own £100 kit off fleabay and am printing stuff to a quality pretty close to a £2k Ultimaker. Some lets-learn-together tech stuff would be cool (and, of course, I’d love to blather on about stuffing tiny little LEDs and motors into terrain).

If that’s a bit too tech-y, I’ve been giving myself just an hour a night lately to paint my he-man minis; I’ve got more done on miniatures in the last few weeks than I’ve done in twenty years 😉

I’m in. I can write some historical and sci to articles on games I mainly do homegrown rules for convention games
