Information about I See Lead People
Back in 1987 I walked past a little store hidden in the corner of a shopping centre. I looked in the window and saw all these strange looking toy soldiers. Having some spare time on my hands I wandered inside. After what seemed like hours I came out with a model of a Dwarf sitting on a toilet, it appealed to my sense of humour.
My teenage years were spent collecting and painting ever expanding armies to vanquish my friends at various games, but as I got older the games got fewer and I started to concentrate more on painting.
Now after more than 20 years spent painting little chunks of metal and plastic I have managed to turn a hobby into a job. I still like to collect miniatures that appeal to my sense of humour, or ones that look fantastic and I still have the dwarf sitting on the toilet, although he is in desperate need of repainting.
