Well they're certainly drawing attention to infinity, don't know if this is related enough but the standard figures, are they one piece casts or are they something a little more easily customisable (in multiple parts for assembly). I was kind of interested in getting at least a few figures after I saw some of the scenery etc on antenocitis workshop, this might just have been the push I needed!

Very few of the Infinity models come in one piece. Of the humanoid models, you'll usually find both arms are separate pieces, slung weapons are also usually thus, and in some cases, heads are separate too.

Thank you for the reply, what's the general view on conversions, or are the groups small enough that it doesn't really warrant doing them unless you're desperate to look completely different to any other army?

This thread should answer your question. Link

EDIT: Nevermind, yakface clarified everything.

One model it is.

Don't let on as to what your entry is but:
How are everyones entries coming along?

I've been ill so i haven't done much but i had some paint delivered from the states. Sadly the wrong thing was delivered but the gentleman has very kindly sent a priority mail replacement within hours of receiving my email. He also through in an extra as way of apology and told me to keep the ones i received in error.
All in all it was very good customer service and i'll be buying from them again! Also, i'm feeling a bit more like my old self so hopefully i can get back to my entry and chopping up models for my blogs.

Received - 100% check
Modelling - 100% check
WIP Photo - 100% check
Base coat - 100% check
Painting - 5% in progress...

Hoping to knock that painting progress up substantially this weekend...

Likewise. I'm making some good effort on the painting department, but it is a long process.

I'm happy with the look so far, and I can't wait to see what everyone else puts out.

Still waiting for my models to come in =(
Still have no idea how it will go to assemble the models haha

I'm still in the modelling stages. As I waffled about in the "Conversions" thread, I like to make all my models unique. And I think I've found something nicely different to do, so it's taking a while.

Still not finished building mine yet... besides which it's been persisting it down here, so undercoating has been out of the question :/

Someone is doing a rain dance in order to unfairly hamper competition.

They will be f-

Oh wait, you have one of those British flags next to your name... I didn't think you guys had any other weather.

Can I do more than one? I've got some I'm already working on but if I do something different I'll have get more primer. Of course it's part of the month where I have NO money :(

Haven't even started mine yet! I have to wait for the T-minus 2 or 3 days to start before I panic and then paint it in a frenzy

Started painting, not finished

Nice to see you that most of you are progressing nicely. It's even nicer to see i'm not the only one fretting over delays!

Think i'm going to bash out the building and maybe converting tonight. Fingers crossed.

Mine's coming along pretty good, one of my better works I think. But might be too simple.
Also, I have no idea what quality the competitors hold, so I have no idea what to expect from my level of painting... And that's bothering me
Also waiting for basing supplies I ordered from Maelstrom three weeks ago.

I'm sure it's going to look great CF, there are some great painters here and i'm sure the amazing mini's will draw more out of the woodwork. Because of that i've resigned my self to losing with dignity .

Tbh i'm pretty just psyched it's happening and i get to take part plus it gave me an excuse to get my Nomads started off a little early.

No, we're each limited to one entry and you have to have a photograph of them in an undercoated state with a date after the competition start date

It's you isn't it? You're the one doing the rain dance!

Got mine undercoated just before the rain

It really is feeling like there will be more entries than the previous Duel comp - it will be very interesting to see everyone's efforts!

Good luck everyone!

I'm still at work in the middle of nowhere Canada. Should be back in the states next week for a sweet 19 days off and ordered some stuff online that should be waiting for me when I get home. I'll be painting full time! That is, between sessions of skyrim

yay =D
received my order =)
well...part of it
9 minis out of 26 =(
and only Human sphere (beautiful book by the way)
Will start assembling and painting tomorow =)

Painted the main body, base coated the arms and base so almost there

That sounds like a plan. I think I'll prepare to lose too

Ordered some alternatives from Shae, as I was unsure on the two choices I had. Once they arrive I will getting straight into painting one or two of them.

Well, my model is almost finished - pretty much finished the base and just need to finish painting the arms (and also re-glue the arms as they fell off when I stuck the model to the base ).

I placed my order on the 17th and it's still in "packing" even though they're supposed to be dispatched within 2 days. :( Hopefully it'll arrive sometime during the upcoming week.

Woo, just finished painting mine (at least, a possible entry ).

Now just to find a way of photographing it to make it look half way good...

Got the model today.......I will open the box and start

I can't remember the last time I painted human skin... turned out okay I think. Thankfully, there isn't a lot of it
