WELCOME TO SMALL OBSESSIONS!

This is the web site of a complete miniatures addict. I've spent the last 25 years painting and converting miniature figures. It all started with a pack of Heritage Models' Orcs. From those two little figures has grown a collection so large that I have a better inventory than most stores. My acquisitiveness for miniatures borders on obsessive/compulsive behavior, and I don't care.

The purpose of this page is to 1) Serve my own vanity with a gallery of my painted figures, 2) Provide a reference of real-world textures and materials for painting, 3) Explain some of the techniques and materials I use on my figures.

I hope this site will help my fellow painters as much as they've helped me. So get painting, but remember the lessons learned in Larry Leadhead: "If you paint them all, you will die."

Of course, we all know there's no danger of that.

I'm working on Cthulhu again. I neglected this figure for three years, but he's coming along quickly.
