I wish I'd seen that auction...wise of you not to point it out. I have always wanted to read this game. 8)

No worries. I have actually bought two sets. Once they arrive, and I read through, I will be selling one set. Probably in about three weeks. :)

Hey now....everyone should Google themselves regularly. How else are you going to find out if anyone is posting interesting tidbits about you online :wink:

I've found 3 people ripping off the "R" series and my Aquaria campaign that way. Trademark infringment on TSR properties and personal insult to boot. So it's a regular habit of mine. :/

I can't wait to get it for display. I also purchased privately another piece from Gus of an Arab(?) female with two scimatars laid out at her feet. I paid about double the one above for this one, and it might be a centerpiece. Your wife has an amazing skill for such finely detailed work. I'm simply in awe.

Yes I remember the Arab girl well, it sat on my Wife's painting desk for some time prior to being completed. She was very happy with it

Yes, that's her, an absolutely stunning job. I'm paying $250 for it, and I probably would have paid even more.

I noticed on the site that she is a bit backed up so I'll wait a few months and come with a good one... I'm thinking an Oriental Adventures female adventurer like in the Holloway paintings. I'll have to find the right mini... perhaps the Reaper site can help. :wink:

That's just weird to find a postcard with your same name on it.

Especially slightly before you were born... :wink:
