New Painting – Marine 2nd Edition
Brand new painting. The 2nd edition marine on sprue! This represents the beginning of many 90s kids’ wargaming creative journeys. Before the painting, before the battles, and before the stories unfold on the tabletop, every miniature begins as raw plastic filled with potential. The memories when painting this piece were so comforting. There may be […]
