Here's my own humble offering, got a few reinforcements for my Nomads finished.
Hex, Spooky, and Envy.
I'm really liking the fabrics on them, and I love the custodier model. I tried some clear bases on some civilians I painted and wasn't too happy but yours look good.
Loki's Sekban is really nice too. I think I have the opposite problem where I paint too quickly, I can always see mistakes and bits I want to fix but because each batch of figures all have a consistent look, I end up not going back and redoing them.
I finished up a bunch of bounty hunters last night so I'll get some photos of them soon.
Nice bunch of paint jobs guys. Everytime I see the Jeanne D'Arc mini, I want it. But I don't play MO :(
Slow? After 3 years I have accumulated 92 Infinity minis (and baffled as to the how of it) and painted to completion all of 2. But I'm working on it. Details in my blog. Which contains all sort of Infinity goodness, like this WIP of the Reverend-Healer;
and these advertising lightboxes
Which make for some nice scatter.
Yeah, a shameless plug. Link is the center banner in my sig

Light boxes are great The healer is coming along really well too!
I think I'm more in the 'paint faster than I should and potentially regret it' camp as opposed to the paint to slow camp. I think my entire Nomad team is slated for a detail and potentially 'glowy lights' pass. We'll see when I'm feeling froggy enough for that to happen though. I think they look fine for the table though and they look pretty cool on my shelf so I'm happy enough with my results.

My issue is I tend to not like my stuff until it's finished. The way the layers and highlighting build up, plus the basing, I like the end result. But until it's done I tend to keep looking for problems and get discouraged, so I paint really slowly.
Where did they come from? I'd love to add a real Old Snake to my Ghulam, or even use him as a Hunzakut or Al Hawwa, and Gray Fox would be a fantastic Fiday.

Seconded!
"Holy Sh*&, you've opened my eyes and changed my mind about this topic, thanks Dakka OT!"
I can answer that for you. They're made by Tales of War. Snake is called "The Last Soldier" and Grey Fox is called "White Fox." Tales of War also makes War and Death from Darksiders.
In the progress of repainting my Morat. Tried an orange and turquoise that never turned out as intended. Opted for the Giraldez theme instead. Not getting the green lamps (clashes imo), so I went with red instead. I am going with cracked earth instead of smurf planet for the bases. That piece will have to be touched up later with static grass and junk.
Got back into painting Infinity again finished working on some Irmandinhos. I like how the first picture came out looks like one of the Irmandinhos got caught in the act of hitting the other one in the back with his ccw
Those Irmandinhos are looking good Ivan, especially like the nmm on the knife/ machete. Reminds me that i have a couple of them as WIPs sitting around somewhere.
And Barzam what were the arms you used on the Hawwa BS conversion? Looks like a pretty natural swap.
Nice to see that mini in brighter colours and the combination of colours works very well.
You've done a good job on the leather boots and holster especially, looks very effective.
Thanks.
I took inspiration from the Arab and Indian cultures to lighten things up a little in palette. You can have the mixes of black against gold, fuchsias against brown. Here I used the red robe to complement the cream/white body armour. I also painted the robe over the waist. Exposed midriff would be silly.
As for the leather, that was less is more. I really had to hold back on layering and keep it subtle. I have brown boots and a belt and so could visualise it; I didn't want it to get too Tron like with the highlights.

It's the miniature that had me decided on Haqqislam. The female proportions are still Infinity but the posture remains strong. It's the straight back and head-up. Effective.
Edit: Oh, and Glaze Medium is brilliant. I can't paint without it now.

Started up a Morat Aggression Force along side my previous Military Orders. Just too many human players locally, several of which are also PanO, so I decided to represent the sweet looking Xenos Murder Monkeys. Waffled on a color scheme for awhile before finally settling on this one. Should be pretty obvious what's it's based on. ;D
Oh, and these are also my first based minis for Infinity. Not sure I like the colors on the base/pipe just yet so might redo/modify that yet still.
The healer is coming along really well too!
