Hi all, I'm Nick.
Guess I might as well get the basics out of the way, I've been wargaming on and off since the late 90s, got back in to it a few years ago after leaving uni, initially with the inevitable evil empire games but since then, I've branched out considerably.
Which has lead to starting to dabble with 15mm scale and Gruntz in particular. I like the flexibility of the ruleset and love the low low price of the models. I'm no where near being ready to have a game and I suspect that I'll have to coerce one of my regular opponents for other systems in to giving it a go by supplying both armies, which thankfully I will be able to do at some point.
Currently I'm working on a small army based on the GZG NAC range. I'll admit to simply buying the starter set and build just a little of it to get going. So far I've got a couple of 5 man gruntz squads, a trike, gun mule, command team and missile launcher team built. I'll post a proper paint log sometime in the next week or two but for now I'll just leave this image as a preview.
Sorry about the quality, taking a close up of a model that small at 8pm with a cheap digital camera is tricky so say the least. The model isn't quite that dark in real life and the contrast between the dark grey armour and the base is a lot better.
