About Me

My photo
Elenderil
I grew up playing with Airfix models and plastic soldiers and my obsessions have just become bigger and more expensive as I have gotten older. I currently ride a Honda VFR800 when I get the time, spend the odd weekend in the seventeenth century, and the rest of the time either reading or painting and modelling.
