I've been painting these guys for about six weeks now and the whole time since then i was either too lazy or too busy for a proper real-time documentation

But let's start with the first step: the raw state

These are the miniatures from the Bakunin J.C. Starterset and a Prowler (the leftmost guy)


For the punched sheet i had to drill an insane amount of 272 holes! The rest of the base detailing is made of a guitar string, cutted plastirod and tin foil from a champagne bottle

These are the finished bases:


with some details



At last - to show some progress - the five finished models:


the aforementioned Prowler


the three Moderators


and last but not least the Reverend Moira

More stuff will follow, obviously

Nice work, a unique scheme and I may have to nick that basing method!

Awesome work. i really like the bases and you did really good work on the white.

Is it a trick of the light in the photo or did you paint a black eye on the one with the blueish hair?

Here is the next batch of pictures:



the second Zero

and now the main reason for the pretty slow painting progress:

a fully scratchbuilt house with a roof-deck



some detail


with easy access through the roof

And last ll new entries in one pichture because i forgot to make more pictures:


Two more Moderators, one Riot Grrl, a Daktari with Zondbot and a Lunokhod Sputnik with two crazy coalas

I was all "meh" and then I scrolled to the zoomed in shots and was all "oh my goodness"....

Nice work mang. :I hella dig the Prowler & the girl with guns/booty.

Thanks guys for the Positive response, that's really motivating

No, i didn't paint a black eye but there might was a little too much shade on my brush while painting the face

Looking food mate.

Tristan, these are gorgeously done.

How did you do the Prowler colors?

The main colour, the dark grey clothing and armour is painted with eshin grey, shaded with nuln oil and highlighted with dawnstone
while the helmet and all the other light grey parts did get a base of celestia grey followed with uluthan grey and ceramite white on the edges.
For the ADHL i used a mix of lothern forest and kantor blue, the metal parts are leadbelcher with a nuln oil shading.
And at last: for the glowing parts i used sotek green with some highliting in various sotek green / ceramite white ratios.

I hope this is helpful for you and thanks for your laud

That is super helpful, Tristan. Keep up the good work!

Finally i could finish my Riot Grrl (unfortunately i wasn't able to finish more)

Here she is


Still two Zeros, a Sineater another Rev. Moira, the Moderators and more to paint... i'm sooo slow :/

I so want to get into Infinity... these models look amazing. Great job!

Trying to get a buddy to get halfsies for the new starter set...

Nice work mate. Good job on the bases too.

Thanks guys

A buddy to start with is always a good idea i did it in a similar way a few months ago and now we are a group of six players.

Ok now back to some on topic bragging with my miniatures! I got some work done

Tadaa! My Sineater Observant! It had to dwell just three months in an almost finished state

Looks great!

Nice stuff! liking the bases. How did you do the bullet casings on the ground?

ckig wrote:Nice stuff! liking the bases. How did you do the bullet casings on the ground?

That's easy, take some polystyrene rods of favoured diameters and cut them in pieces of about 1.5mm length. Take care to cut them as uniform as
possible! Put the"casings" on a piece of paper, place a drop of plastic glue on the base (obviously you'll need another type of glue if your base surface
doesn't consist of plastic) and sprinkle the plastic pieces onto that droplet, you are finished!
Well, if you want to add some more detail you can place some lonely casings around that made pile, just poke the tip of your hobby knife in some plastic
glue and create small droplets on your base where you can place the lonely casings.



Thats the finished raw build:

I got some work done despite my pretty time consuming studies
First a "family" pic:


and at last my Daktari and her Zondbot called "No. 5"


C & C is still welcome

Happy new year at all, i got some work done - again!

First my finished link team of five Moderators



And my Spec-Ops with a Spitfire on his back and ready to engage


Feel free to post some c & c

Very cool, your colour choice is excellent!

Thanks this colour scheme evolved pretty random after my Riot Girl was finished.

Some terrain too:

That'll be the colours of the flora of my future game table. Pretty psychedelic, isn't it?

My latest finished troop:


A dazzle camouflaged Lunokhod Sputnik with two Crazy Koalas

Great work. Clean, neat and stong colours!

Thank you

Again something new:

Reverend Custodier


Melissa, either CSU or my HVT

Really nice Reverand, and one of the more interesting CSUs I've seen as well. Excellent stuff!

These are awesome, love the bases the most. Great job.

Well lads, long time no see!

I got some painting done, thus you'll some Zeros at first:


Then Zoe and her beloved Pi-Well (you might guess where i got my inspiration for his colour scheme)!


I hope you like them

Great stuff, nice clean white!
