Gierburg Painting Logbook #1

Hi, guys! I was recently invited by Chris "Cianty" Templin to join his Gierburg project as a painter. Needless to say, I was thrilled to seize the occasion. I will be documenting my progress over on Cianty's Tabletop Wargames Blog, so please feel free to head over there to read more.

For those who may not know what it is: Gierburg is a tabletop game that is currently being developed by Chris "Cianty" Templin (the guy who also gave us the amazing Mordheim supplement Border Town Burning), revolving around a great variety of skirmish-size missions in a cloak and dagger setting with subtle (but undeniable) elements of magic and mystery.
