Hey, folks. Found out about the board thanks to a post in the Dice Dojo group. I'm a recent transplant from northern California, long-time painter that had been away from things for a couple years until post-move. I'm going to be playing my first games of 40K after a long hiatus this month at the Dojo event (thanks for putting that on, Nick). I'm an Eldar player dating back to 3rd edition, with some branching out into other armies here and there. My craftworld is a custom one based on the old Legend of the Five Rings CCG/RPG world (I was playing it heavily when I started painting). I've recently started streaming on Twitch to give myself a schedule, in an effort to get back into the swing of painting. It's been good for me so far - I've completed a few projects since I got started! My more recent painting is up on my tumblr (linked in my sig). Welcome! I just checked out your Commission Painting Blog - really good stuff! Loved it!

Your painting looks great, looking forward to throwing dice with you in the future!

Sup CST,
Name: Matt (But I go by Vak) Age: 30(in like 15 days)
Found out about this group from the dojo miniatures Facebook page. Life long Chicago resident born and raised in edgewater a stones throw from the dojo actually. I'm a writer and I corporate wage slave. I was a long time tau player I got into 40k like right around when the dojo first opened, played for a few years and then real life happened. You know how it is. BUT recently my wife gave me the all clear to start playing mini's games again so here I am. I still have my tau but I just picked up that Start Collecting! Blood Angels box, to get my crafting/painting juices flowing. (And I haven't touched my tau in a while so I am pretty out of date on them) I don't quite have enough models in Blood angels yet but over the next few weeks should be picking up some more and ideally will be able to play some games sooner than later.
Anyway look forward to playing/drinking with you guys sometime soon.
-Vak

Soli - didn't catch your name in your intro post. Want to put a face to a name if we've ever met at the dojo before.

Although honestly I'm not going to turn down anything save malort.
