Old Schooler New to Lizzies and forum

Hey folks, I just posted to the painting section, but I should say hello here too. I've been playing Warhammer since 4th edition and I'm mostly a Skaven and Empire player, although my son is into the game too and I have helped him paint about 2500 points of Dwarfs. When 5th edition came out I acquired 3 boxes of Saurus and Skink plastics and always meant to paint them up and play the army. A local GW store went out of business and I picked up a Steg and Slann for 60% off...and a handful of blisters in addition. But then I had a kid (this was 10 years ago) and my playing time got cut down to almost nothing. I sat out 6th edition and only started playing 7th at the very end (Skaven again). I recently finished a campaign in 7th edition with my Skaven against the Orcs and Empire and won 1st place and now I feel it's time to give the rats a bit of a rest and open up those Lizard blisters and see what I can do with a new challenge. I have the "new" book and went out and bought a box of Saurus Cold One cavalry, and I'm very excited to do some conversions and colorful, atypical paint jobs.

I won't repeat everything else I wrote in the Painting forum, but just wanted to day I'm excited for new challenges, both in gaming and modelling/painting!

 

Good to have you, hope you enjoy it here
