Read More Hasslefree Miniatures, iron painter, Ral ParthaI spent Saturday fidgeting and worrying about this project. It’s something I’ve never done and wasn’t sure if I could pull it off. The morning was spent for a ton of dry fitting, searching for the right vegetation, rocks and cutting for the backdrop. It took a solid 3/4 of the day before I was […]
