My husband collects and paints metal soldiers, tanks, etc. He also makes buildings, warehouses, and other objects so that he can set up battle scenes. He has a whole room in our house with big tables and his set-ups. We call it "The War Room". There are games the boys can go up there and play for hours at a time.
Richard spends hours painting these things. They are tiny and it amazes me that this relaxes him--it would stress me out! :)
Here are a couple of pictures I took in "The War Room" tonight. This is the Battle of Parkers Crossroads in WWII. It took place in Belgium.
Here is a close up view of one of the soldiers that he painted. He looks big in his trench, but he is only 20mm tall.

Nice job with the photo's!! It would stress me out to paint those tiny details too but hey you did a nice job showing it off!
Very cool shots.... and cool hobby your hubby has.. I bet he is thrilled that you used your passion to show off his. :)
These are so KEWL. LOVE the little details. You did great photographing them too.
It's good that he has a hobby. I believe in hobbies. It's like going on a mini vacation.
great job with those tiny guys.
If your DH wants to go into miniature heaven he should visit the Forbes Gallery in NYC - it is FANTASTIC!
