Why do gamers make web pages? Why to put up pictures of their miniatures. People want to show other people what they've done, but they don't always like to transport their miniatures everywhere (except if it's for a game).The web is also a good place to post information up for those who want it. On this page, we not only showcase our armies, but also show a quick, cheap guide to the unit's colour scheme. Of course, it still is preferable to go out and find reference books, photographs and paintings (buy the postcard instead of the huge original...) so that you may have authentic sources to work from. |
