While I love to paint minis (been doing it since 1973), I barely have time to complete my own anymore.
And then there is my brother, the Mini Mutant, who paints the right number of buttons on 15 and even 9mm troops (only one company I ever knew of made 9mm figures, Jack Scruby's old Soldier Factory -- my brother has about 3 divisions of ACW troops all dressed to the nines...). And don't even ask my about his Landsknechts!
**sigh**
Extreme Green Envy when I see his troops
I swear he has a One Camel-hair Brush sometimes...
