So here it is! Five easy steps to keep the other half happy on Valentine’s Day, whilst enjoying your hobby at the very same time!
·         Step 1- Casually ask you partner what their favorite character from Lord of the Rings is? For some strange reason she chose ‘Gimli’, dwarf fetish if you ask me! 5 weeks in advance to avoid suspicion!!!!
·         Step 2-Order said miniature in whatever pose inspires you to paint, or convert them to death!!!!!!
·         Step 3- Build a suitable diorama, Gimili is on a standard GW base with would filler used to build up the terrain, the trees a pre-fabricated.   The water feature is simply acrylic with a clear varnish finish.
·         Step 4- Order a wooden base from the internet, stick miniature down.





·         Step 5- Bask in romantic glory.
