A big 'hello' to all of my readers of the blog, we've been doing this a long time and today I've got a big announcement; I have quit my career as a school teacher and am going to run a one-man Games Workshop store here in town.
It's not something I've taken lightly, but after much discussion with the family and over a year of courtship with Games Workshop themselves, it's a done deal. Next to Rochester New York my store will be the second one in the states under the new banner of Warhammer.
Here is the store, from a square footage perspective it's a little larger than average, but it's less square and more rectangular.
Starting Monday I will be putting the finishing touches on everything, and then next weekend will be the grand opening!
Obviously my painting is going to be getting back on track, and that will be reflected here. Another obvious given is that the bulk of the new stuff shown here will naturally be GW minis.
The corporate office and distribution hub for North America is in Memphis, TN which is just seven hours away. Here's the first wave of product for the store, sitting beautifully in the red zone and will be delivered in just a couple of days!
I am very excited to start this as I've got a head for business and a lifetime of gaming under my belt. Success of the store will hinge solely on my shoulders which makes me naturally nervous to an extent, but it's a positive energy.
As always, and until next time, enjoy!
