14. Dezember 2004 Frohe Weihnachtszeit!
Hallo liebe Besucher meiner Website!
Zunächsteinmal möchte ich mich bei allen meinen "Fans" und Freunden ganz herzlich dafür bedanken, dass ihr mir auch dieses Jahr die Treue gehalten habt, auch wenn es mal nicht so viele Updates und Neuheiten gab.
Tja, so langsam neigt sich ein weiteres Jahr des "neuen" Jahrtausends dem Ende entgegen und ich finde es wird Zeit, sich ein wenig Gedanken über das vergangene Jahr, sich selber und seine Mitmenschen zu machen und nicht nur in sinnlosem Kaufwahn durch die Städte zu eilen um noch schnell und hecktisch die letzten Geschenke einzukaufen.
Nehmt Euch doch einfach mal etwas Zeit und denkt mal an die Menschen, an die Ihr in letzter Zeit vielleicht ein bischen zu wenig oder garnicht gedacht habt.
Weihnachten, das Fest der Liebe! Das sagt sich so leicht. Aber diese Liebe sollte nicht nur zu so einer Gelegenheit wie Weihnachten gegeben und empfangen werden sondern das ganze Jahr über. Es ist zwar sicher ein schöner Anlass, aber es sollte nicht extra ein solcher nötig sein, um mal seine Gefühle zu zeigen oder sie auszusprechen.
Daher mein Wunsch für dieses Jahr und meine Bitte an Euch: zeigt wieder
mehr Gefühle und das nicht nur Euren Mitmenschen gegenüber, sondern auch
für Eure Umwelt und die Natur um Euch. Denn die hat es ganz besonders
nötig.
So, vielleicht bedeuten diese Wort ja jemandem von Euch auch was, vielleicht auch nicht, ich würde mich jedenfalls freuen, wenn wir alle ein bischen weniger nur an uns selber denken würden. Ich versuche es jedenfalls immer wieder aufs Neue. Dankeschön und ein frohes und (wirklich) besinnliches Weihnachtsfest.
Jetzt aber wieder zum angenehmen Teil des Abends. Sie sind zwar nicht mehr ganz brandneu und ich habe sie schon beim letzten Update in die Galerien gestellt, aber hier seien sie jetzt nochmal offiziell vorgestellt.
Die Herr der Ringe Galerie hat ein wenig Verstärkung durch einen Ringgeist zu Pferd bekommen und in der Erotic Galerie ist jetzt Sophie von Reaper Miniatures zu sehen.
Wir sehen uns hoffentlich gesund und munter im nächsten Jahr wieder! Und denkt dran, kein Alkohol am Steuer!

14. December 2004 Merry Christmas time!
Hallo dear visitor of my website!
First I'd like to thank all of my "fans" and friends for beeing faithfull with me throughout the year, even though there haven't been so many updates and news here lately.
Well, slowly another year of the "new" millenium draws to its end and
I think it is getting time to sit down and have a few thoughts about the
gone year, one self and one's fellow men and not only haste through our
cities on the sensless hunt after the last few presents for christmas.
Take your time and think of the people you may haven't thought of at all
or not enough, lately.
Christmas, a celebration all about love! This is said so easy. But this love shouldn't only be given and received on an occasion like christmas, but throughout the hole of the year. It may be a nice occasion, but there shouldn't be such an extra occasion, just to let show or say your feelings.
So my wish for this year and my plea to you: please show more of your
feelings again, and not only to your fellow men, but to the environement
and nature all around you. For nature is definitely in the need for it.
Now, maybe for some of you these words do have a meaning, maybe not, I
for my part would be delighted, if all of us would think a bit less just
about our selfs. I for my part will try it every day anew. Thank you and a merry and (really) thoughtfull christmas.
But now for the fun part of the evening. They may not be brandnew anymore and I have allready posted them with the last update, but here they are introduced officially:
The Lord of the Rings gallery has been enforced by a monted Ringwraith and in the Erotic gallery we now have Sophie from Reaper Miniatures. Hopefully we meet again well and healthy next year! And remember, don't drink and drive! |

11. November 2004 Endlich ein Update!
Wow, das war wohl eine etwas längere "kurze Pause"
seit dem letzten Update!
Naja, der Sommer war auch relativ unspektakulär, mal ganz davon
abgesehen, dass das Wetter auch nicht so mitgespielt hat. Ich war auf
einigen Conventions und hab ein paar Malwettbewerbe mit meinen
Modellen gewonnen! Und nun freuen wir uns alle auf eine geruhsame und
friedliche Weihnachtszeit, was auch immer diese wert ist, in solch
schwierigen und verzweifelten Zeiten.
Aber jetzt erstmal weiter mit dem recht überfälligen
Update:
Inzwischen habe ich meine 2te Orcwarlord Büste von Forgeworld
bemalt und auch schon ein paar Wettbewerbe damit für mich
entscheiden können.
Auch hatte ich endlich Gelegenheit, meinen schon etwas älteren
bretonischen Grünen Ritter von Games Workshop
nochmal etwas detailierter und besser zu fotografieren
Für die Bilder und zusätzliche Infos einfach auf die
Thumbnails klicken! |
11. November 2004 Finaly an update!
Wow, this has been a little bit longer "short break" since
the last update!
Well, summer hasn't been that spectecular anyway, aside from the
weather that hasn't been all too good either. I have been to a couple
conventions and won a few painting competitions with my models! And
now we are all looking forward to an unhurried and piecefull christmas
time, what ever that is worth in these times of trouble and despair!
But now on with the long overdue update:
In the meantime I have painted my second Orcwarlord Bust from
Forgeworld and allready I have won a few competitions with it.
I also found the opportunity to take a couple of new and better
photos from my older painted bretonian Green Knight from Games
Workshop.
For the images and some extra info just click on the thumbnails!

20th March 2001
...hello... ...ah... ...Huston? ...we have a miniaturegallery!
Hi there folks, I finally found the time to work on my little corner
of the internet and launch my personal webpage dedicated to this
exciting hobby. A special welcome to all you
minipainter.
You know who you are. :o)
Well, not too much to see, yet. Just the basic framework and a few
entries in the
Galleries.
But I couldn't resist to upload it. So watch this space for
forthcoming news.
As English is not my mother tongue, please be lenient to me, if there
are any mistakes on these pages, especially when it gets more
technical.
Talking of technical. I tried to make sure that this webpage will
look as much as the same at least on the two leading browsers. The
only real problem I have is with the animated buttons. While looking
quite nice in MS IE, Netscape refuses to display the animations right.
So it looks much better in IE. If any of you have an idea how to solve
this problem with Netscape and animated gifs, please send me an
e-mail.
See you soon with the next update...
