It's never a good time when we lose one of our own.
The miniature painting community lost Bruno Grelier (pictured above) just over a week ago. I never had the pleasure of meeting Bruno (in person or online), but I can certainly say I've admired many of his works over the last decade or so. In addition, a number of my "blogosphere friends" were good friends with Bruno, and are feeling the loss particularly keenly.
I send my condolences to all that knew and loved Bruno and his work.
Bruno was one of the masters who kept the spirit of the Orks (particularly Feral Orks) alive during the "dark days", when Ork players were desperate for a new codex and a new one was years away.

Good trip … I follow your blog since a few time, and I believe that it is a good place, where I have found a very good works. A great greeting.
