The Epic Painting Quest

[Goblin-King]

Amazing work. I really like how you differentiated the monsters from the base game and the expansions. That one is a KK goblin! Nice.

[AroniusJay]

Wow, great work

Lovely to see a whole collection all complete and in a similar vein of style.

Top stuff, and envious of your gaming group

[Daedalus]

So after a year of enjoyable toil and an epic questing for the complete Heroquest expansion I present my painted collection, and am now considerably poorer but at least my gaming group is having fun although we are only on the base campaign so far...this may be my mid life crisis

If you're up for a mid-life crisis, you might as well do it right...and you have done so exceedingly well! Enjoy the ride.

Myself, I've been in my midlife crisis since I was 26 years old, though without the penis-shaped car.
It's an awesome ride indeed...

Midlife crisis for men is just a negative word for "deciding to be awesome again".

In the words of Lester Burnham: 1970 Pontiac Firebird. The car I've always wanted and now I have it. I rule!

Just yesterday, I ridiculed a 61-year-old man on a green* Kawasaki Ninja.
Don't step over the line in trying to be awesome again!

[...meaning if it has to be a Ninja, paint IT freakin' BLACK!]

The worst is a 60+ driving a muscle car going 45 in a 55. Hurts to see a good car wasted.

You've nailed it GK.

penis-shaped car! That's a bit harsh.

Two promises I made to myself when I was significantly younger and poorer than I am know:

First: To someday make a 3D heroquest dungeon and paint the set. I'm well on the way to doing this.

Second: In 1995 I walked into Mercedes showroom in Dublin with my best friend and his Dad to collect his Dads new Mercedes SL320 convertable. I totally fell in love with the car. The old guy in the showroom saw my awe, gave me a brochure and a Mercedes keyring and told me to keep it until I owned my dream car.
Two years ago my friend called me and told me his Dads old car was back in the showroom where he'd bought it all those years before. I went in, bought the car, and the put the key onto the keyring the oldman had given me over 20 years ago (he had died 15 years earlier). I drove out of the showroom and cried with happiness.

Every middled age guy behind the wheel of a nice car is not going through a crises, some are only now able to fulful promises made to themselves in their youth.

Thumbs up to the 60 year old on the green Ninja.
