I'm the owner of the white with red Infinity army. Let me just say how happy I've been with Ramos' services. He's very easy to communicate with, is a phenomenal painter, and is one of the most patient guys I've ever dealt with regarding commissions, of which I've used probably a dozen for several different games, (FoW, 40k, etc.)

If you have a desire to have your stuff painted, definitely reach out to him. He's well worth his asking price!

@Cam: Thank ya kindly!!

@Dave: These ones are the "least bad" of the shots I took. I wanted to have many more, especially the group shot- but the depth of field got all screwed up with the new camera app :/

@SL: The trick here is the airbrush and oil wash. It's really cheating!

@Paulie: Heheh, Thank you VERY much for such a glowing review!!

=================

Worked on the golds for Cabrakan- Trying something a little different with him. Purple and green washes after the usual double brown wash. So far results are promising!
About half-way done highlighting the golds with a bright silver edge.

Yeah I wasn't very familiar with the dark age stuff either. But the model is looking very nice. Really like the idea of it tearing chains from the ground.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I had no knowledge of the dark age models either but am enjoying watching the cabrakan model coming together.

Really liking the idea of it tearing chains from the ground to charge the enemy. What a good idea as the model really does lend itself to that idea.

Good job Ramos! clean and great use of colour for the body of whatever it is? I like the purple hues in the gold and the slight glow in the sockets of the skulls is a good touch! :-)

Not where I should be

Beautiful work, really brilliant, loving the model too, maybe I have a one track mind, but gives me inspiration to do a Aztec Thousand Sons army, judging by this they would be cool. And if the other models are suitable then you could maybe cross over on the units, playing both.

@Alph: Ooooohhh.... You are an evil evil man.... Im really liking the look of some of those minis... May have to pick up Coatlai in particular. He speaks to me on a really odd level, haha!
I wouldnt mind getting a demo of it in sometime...

@Gits: Thanks, boss!

@nerd: Thank you very, very much, man!

@Cam: Oooooh.... I wanna see that!! Aztec/Inca marines would be a really wicked aesthetic!

@Theo: Thankfully I pledged for Kingdom Death...
After that minor obsession, I dont have money left for any other games
(seriously though, I may have a problem... )

@Yorkright: Hehe So glad you noticed the feet! It was a last minute addition, but does so much to make him fit to the base Very much appreciate the kind words.

@Tides: Thanks!! Clients were super stoked about them, too!

@SL: He does have a bit of an Alpha flavor to him, doesnt he
No work for WM or Tides for now (He does have some stuff coming down the line, though... More farm animals )

========================

Its been a busy past couple weeks with work and a friend's wedding, but I've been chipping away at some bases for my alchemists. Just about done with them- Just gotta wash the gold down a fair bit.

Wow I know they are only bases. But they look really cool. Can you get a playing surface that resembles the bases for the game?

Thanks Archer-
As far as I know, I dont think that there is a play surface (mat or otherwise) that resemble these. Would be a neat project to do, though. Big 3x3 board that is a courtyard or atrium or something, the runic circles cut into the stones... Would be a heck of a project but man would it look cool!
