Magazine Interview

Well I'm very proud to announce that I have made it into Wargames illustrated. While at the 'Other Partizan' show with James Morris and the Midgard game, I was interviewed by James Griffith from the magazine.

It was all done via a face to face dictaphone recording, so I'm surprised anything could be heard over the din of the huge gaming event. However, on reading through the article it all made sense and I thought James did a grand job putting it all together.

I did mention my Blog in the chat and that too has made an appearance.  I love the scrapbook effect they have created for this page.

I was only expecting a page if that of my painting tips and figures, so was blown away to see it had made a six page article. I know the interview went on for around twenty minutes but I still wasn't expecting so many pages.

I'm really pleased with the finished article and the WI team have done a great job in laying it out.

Having this hobby blog also helped with WI able to delve in and select photos to help show what I was talking about. This was really useful for the creation of the mighty Beorn out of a couple of toys off eBay.

I kept running down the town to check if it was in the WHSmith, only to come back empty handed. However, James got in contact and offered to send me some copies which was very thoughtful and greatly appreciated. 

I hope it goes down well with the readers, if it does it could lead to more articles, you never know...

 This article is the cherry on the cake to what was an amazing weekend recreating the infamous battle. I know James Morris has shown interest in putting it on again...now I've found a way to transport my armies safety, I'm all up for it.
