Though it's not miniatures at all, the reason for the quietness from me here is slightly AdMech related. I have kind of started my own forge and have dived into a new hobby - knive making. And honestly it's a delight making something "useful" and seeing the projects taking shape. I'm pretty sure I will return to miniature painting at some point but for now all hobbytime is channeled into the knifeforge. Here is a couple of pics of what I've done so far and a link if anyone should be interested in following this new bug of mine.
Cheers, Manus
