Then I saw Violentfix's Operation Rapier and thought it would be a great way to tell my stories. It's cool to walk around outdoors scouting for locations and building sets, and shopping for props. And it's alway cool to see the final product come out just like I see it in my head. I like to see what other people can do with their Joes and a digital camera too. Joes aren't meant to stay in the package.

Sonneilon aka 'Paul WS Anderson' ;) Offline --> Posts: 7,751 --> Join Date: Jul 2005	Luke Ellison. Seeing what he was throwing down on the JBL, it opened my eyes to what could be done. I had a camera. I had a few figures. I could do the same thing! And then I realized that 1) it was a chance to play with them and 2) it gave me a reason to collect what I needed. As for doing an actual story, I'm not sure how that came about. I was just having fun goofing around with little stories. The ideas are there, the execution is often poor.

I have the same basic reason. I found sites with these great stories and started to look into doing it myself.
