Mein Liebster!

Considering the... manageable :D number of subscribers and commenters of my blog, I would have never expected this, but I have actually been Liebstered. Incredible! And many thanks to Adam Wier from Between the Bolter and Me.
Alright, here goes:


Eleven Truths:

1. I actually have a Master's degree in Theoretical Quantum Physics.
2. Everybody thinks I'm too old for miniatures and tabletop now, including myself.
3. I much prefer converting and painting to gaming. Actually, I haven't played a game since spring 2011.
4. I was one of four members of the Epic Rules Committee, overseeing the online development of GW's Epic:Armageddon.
5. As far as I can think back, I have always been fascinated by Fantasy and Sci-Fi.
6. Despite this blog's title being French, I don't really speak that language; it was just intended as an hommage to Jules Verne.
7. I started out life as a pathological introvert, but have graduated to regular introvert since.
8. I am currently re-watching all episodes of TNG, I'm not a Trekkie though.
9. I think I have found the love of my life, and she's still with me.
10. I still paint all my minis using enamel colours (Humbrol).
11. I started the hobby 19 years ago, with 40K 2nd edition.

Eleven Questions (answered to):

1. Eisenhorn or Ravenor? I must confess I haven't read either. Love Dan Abnett, though.
2. What is your favorite aspect of the miniature hobby? Creating new models ('converting').
3. Will dread Cthulhu rise from his sunken city of R’lyeh? XCOM will be there to meet him.
4. Who is your favorite artist? John Blanche.
5. If you are about to embark on a long drive with nothing to think about, what musical album would you want to listen to? Any old Kyuss stuff.
6. Have you ever played the cRPG: Planescape: Torment? No.
7. Games Workshop’s White Dwarf magazine recently switched formats and is now weekly, thoughts? It has now fully degenerated into a product advertisement leaflet with no hobby-relevant content whatsoever. Only pictures. I really tried hard to still like it, but simply couldn't.
8. Is the Alpha Legion the Imperium’s doom or their salvation? Neither. A thousand men cannot alter the fate of an empire of this size.
9. Benchmade or Spyderco? I actually had to google that. Can't really say.
10. What boardgame would you most like to play this weekend? Heroquest!
11. Who is your favorite sculptor? Simon Lee / Spiderzero
