One almost done!

Okay, as I was wrapping up on the pylons, I got hit with a mad, no insane inspiration for making a team of bits slapped together, I had Wargamefactory torsos, Dreamforge legs, and GW arms and heads and weapons

So here we go with a group shot

I have placed an order for some more of the Murder-Monkeys-from-Outerspace

For a way to help flesh out the Yaogat commandos, a Axe wielding, sniper



This guy as they are going to release him some company, I can't wait!



And the Warrior-Priests of Muscle Planet, armor can't contain the Powah!

I can't wait to work that Powered armor suryat with this band of his brothers,,,,or cousins?

Of course they will get the odd paint scheme i use for the armor, and I have a fresh paint drop on the way. But I have to wait until they get the Suryat squad in at Miniature Market.

Well, this is a mixed update as I added paint to the recent bunch of Morats, and primer-coated the sonic fence

As usual, enjoy, and feel free to comment!

So, I was expecting the supply drop on Monday, but seems it hit early today! Paints from Reaper and the latest Miniatures from Miniature Market, two different guys with similar poses as the Morats seem left handed for the most part. the Daturazi may actually be of such a set of options as to have the ability to buy another box and make them an 8-man squad of close combat shredding machines!, well, maybe not, but still, they have some good weapons and parts, and these guys look as big as the normal troops w/o the full armor!

Primers for days! I am now set for a while with black and white primers
[/img]


colored paints, sample is a swampy/undead green, more adamantium black to cover my Murder Monkeys dark colored armor some metallic colors as well and the really dark military armor gray
[/img]


Base coat on the pylons as well done, now for highlights, dry brush and weathering
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]


Corvus Belli seems to love set poses and use it on so many figures. But the details on these figures is so crisp and will be good for my forces. And the Yagat is a bad ass as his axe is the same used by both the Daturazi and the Sogarat Heavy armor guy.
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]

Speaking of Daturazi,,,these will also allow much of the skin mod I use for the paints on these guys as much as I have done with the Oznats and the red tribal marks which hold certain meanings to these guys. Box had some glare, so two shots to show.
[/img]
[/img]

Bag 1 of arms and weapon options
[/img]

Bag 2 of arms and weapon options
[/img]

4 figures 2 basic poses each
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]

Got carried away yet again with painting my "Murder Monkeys" so from blister to this for the Yaogat sniper
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]


And the Suryat lone figure, who will eventually be joined by 3 other Suryats and a tinbot shield bearer
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]


Daturazi are so heavily muscled I can see why they hardly need much for armor. (early stages for the skin and hair)
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]

after the lighter skin was added, I have to re-do the hair, as the highlight is darker that that skin which is a mix of weathered stone and their base skin tone of amethyst purple, the hair is based in Imperial Purple, then uses the amethyst as highlight, wash used was watered down clear purple.
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]


Then I almost forgot to work on the Yaogats' face and add his pale skin mix!
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]

One last shot of the lone Suryat! His mask makes him look as angry as any of his kind would look, maybe he will cheer up when I can get the squad for him.
[/img]

Good haul.
Good progress.

So, I had an idea to use a new color to base my green-gold mix, and it may help me make a new batch of that by adding gold to this metallic called "Emerald Green" let me know what folks think?

much more work to do!

Yeah, I think that green works with the scheme.

Gold is not coming through in the photos well...

...to the point that I'm not sure if you have added the gold, or not... ?

Just the emerald green, I will be brushing the gold/green over it to see how it works out

Holy Crap Shas....When you been sleeping? Fantastic work on the pylons! And more for the Shasolenzabi Horde!

That would explain it then.

I have slept, reast assured Dave, I just then do a mega dump of the progression of the minis. Thanks regarding the compliments for the pylons!

I agree with the Dr, green is good. Nice work shaz.

More green.

Thank you, that is the main one. so I also have a small bit of "Ruby Red" metallic on the Daturazi

Na yeah that is a good green, like the alternative black green armour plates.

Sniper Yaogat, he has more of the ruby red
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]


Suryat with ruby red added, in fact I went back and ruby red-ed all the rest of the troops

and the sonic defense towers to annoy them

My near black is called "Adamantium black, it may reflect the green flash when the camera went off, LOL! Glad folks like this scheme I picked for the Morat/Ga' Vra' Ku, now to find some toys or models for making them grav APCs, Tanks and dropships,

Thinks look to be coming along nicely.



Just curious, but how much of a pain in the ass is it to assemble Infinity minis? Or is it pretty much a breeze?

Well, honestly, where i think the connections will be looks weak, I drill/pin before super-gluing the parts together, on other areas, they have a good solid connection block and hole. so breeze for some things, pinning for others.

Well, here are the latest updates on the Daturazi, warpaints added!

Hi,

Just stumbled across the latest pages of your plog. I'll have to go back through and have a proper read when I get the chance. Love the Morats and the pylons.

Cheers

Dave

More murder monkeys, looking great bud.

Really love your entry for the comp. really in the spirit of the thing, usable nice looking terrain. Good luck with it.

Hi! welcome to the madness!

Thank you! I am waiting on an order for jeweler/watch work lenses to do better detail paint work.

There are still more of these killer simians to get, and some seem waiting on re-sculpts methinks.

But at least I have a scheme that suits them.

Thanks! I love the dioramas you and stonned astartes have produced, good side bits for different alien races. Good luck to you as well!

Cheers man,

The new Morat sculpts are so good. I get tempted to buy them sometimes, but then look at my own pile of unpainted Nomads and Ariadna and think, no, not yet.

Speaking of the Morats, this repaint of the axe makes more sense now.
