[Groop]Re: Groo Miniatures

[Thomas Gatto]

Dear Joseph

I Also am about to undertake the painting of my Groo miniatures. I was once 
quite skilled at this craft, but have decided to practice on some old never 
painted figures to get my skill back up to par. I would greatly appreciate a 
picture of the figures before, after and during the painting process if 
possible.

A picture of the dragon assembled would be a help, and a picture of the 
warriors and wenches set #4 (which I bought loose on good faith) would be 
especialy appreciated.

Also Ral Partha imports makes an exceptional Groo copy (Groan of the spare 
katana I think) they are out of print, but some are still available direct 
from the company I am told. I got one, because you can always use more goo 
stuff.

Best of non groo luck to you from one artist to another.
