daughters got the bug!

Very nice. My daughter's wanting me to paint up a mini for her and her brother to play "the adventure game", which is more or less me just being the GM and making things up on the fly (works great for road trips). She had a very trying time to find a mini that she liked enough to represent "her". Most of the girl fighters we found were just "too naked" (her words). Got one finally that actually had armor that was more than just a bikini.

She'd paint it, but her previous attempts weren't up to her standards now (she was 4), and she wants it to look like the ones I paint. But she's expressed an interest in repainting her first ones (Catachan Jungle Fighters; large #s for the price as she "painted" one about every 10 minutes), so I may be stripping them soon. Luckily, washable Crayola paint. Don't think she'll settle for that paint this time tho. Time to find a brush suitable and sacrificed if need be.

Glad to see the bug spread!

And you thought you had at least ten years before you had to start worrying.

If she continues in that vein you'll have GW fanboys hovering round your house in no time.
Option 1: discourage her now and save the hassle.
Option 2: stock up on anti-perspirant and deodourant as a repellant for fanboys
Option 3: lock her in the basement and make it a painting factory for you
Option 4: Buy her more figures.

</sarcasm off>
Seriously though enjoy the time together, while she's still Daddies little girl, don't force her talent and let her enjoy the time painting with you.
If she becomes a Jen Haley or Mrike excellent, if not but continues to enjoy painting, still damn good.

That is indeed well done!

For any beginning, that's very nice, for a SEVEN year old, it's downright amazing.

You should be a proud Dad!
