Thanks for the kind words, painting the face of a mini is definitely one of my favorite parts so I'm glad you liked it.

Finished painting a Dàofěi and started work on a Hsien. Going for a straight dark grey on the Hsien armour since it has a cloak that is camouflage painted and I think it will look to jumbled if both armour and cloak is camouflage painted.

Love the colour scheme you've chosen, and what an amazing job you did on Uxia's face. It's very clean and smooth and retains a bit of a grin. Perfect.

Very nice work on Uxia's face.

I see you go for the drab military palette instead of the bright anime palette. You do it well

Finally got back to painting some more Infinity figures got a bit distracted with Malifaux for a while. Finished painting the Hsien and since I really want to get the operation ice storm I started to work on my PanO and finished painting a Nisse.

Awesome paintjob man, really!
You are an insipiration for me, because you get that amazing, wonderfull result without the airbrush! I really want to learn to paint like you.
I hope that when I start to paint my first Infinity's Miniature, I'm waiting for my Local Shop to order the paint and also I'm waiting that Operation: Ice Storm comes out, you want to help me!

Thanks for the comments I'm glad you like the camo Haven't been painting Infinity miniatures for a long time now but I recently received the operation ice storm box so I have been painting some PanO minis. The new miniatures are really nice and went together really nice I have finished painting the fusiliers and have also painted a Caledonian Mormaer for my Ariadna army. Feels really good to be painting infinity miniatures again I hope you like them.

Your camo >.< wtf.
I've been holding this page of your blog on a tab in my window to use as a reference, but haven't had the courage yet to start a camo scheme on some of my minis ^^ You've done it again on the fusiliers, they are so good. And the blonde hair T.T
I also really like the nmm on the mormaer, the highlights on his visor are perfect o:

That camo is really good indeed.

I want to do camo on my PanO minis now when I get round to them but I've never attempted it before and it doesn't look easy.

Thanks for the comments glad you them.

@GiraffeX Painting camouflage is not super hard but takes a bit work to get right the important bit i to keep it as simple as possible because it can very easily become muddled of you use to small fields or to many colours. I would start with two main colours and maybe add a third colour in small patches. I usually start with a base colour and paint it on the whole area that is going to be painted camouflage then I shade and highlight it before moving on to the next colour. To unify the colours you could add a glaze or two of the two main colours mixed together.

@Casey's Law Thanks good to be back painting Infinity since they are my favorite minis to paint. I don't have any Nomad minis to paint since i split the operation ice storm box with a friend.

I'd be more offended by you ditching the Nomads if your PanO weren't so beautiful.

Hi been working some more on the operation ice storm minis finished painting an Akal sikh commando please excuse the somewhat crappy photos had some problem with the lighting the minis properly. Also started to work on the Father knight mini I will aiming for a different colour scheme for it since i think it should stand out from the rest of the army. The plan is to paint all the armour plates dark grey with some white details and the back pack will probably be in the same blue grey colour as the rest of my PanO minis, feedback is as always appreciated.

Looks really nice, think yours are probably some of the most 'realistic'-looking Infinity miniatures I have seen Crazy Ivan.

Absolutely wonderful job with the blending and highlighting.

Can I ask if that is silfor products you have used for the base? It looks very effective.

Just as a random thought, you could change that armour piece on the Knight's base to look really old and rusted, as if warring factions had been fighting in that area for a long time..

Thanks, for the base I used some static grass not sure which brand it is the small bushes are woodland scenics dark and light green clump foliage. I'm going to add some paint and weathering powders to the armour when I'm finishing up the base.
