Completely agree anyway, I think at least the tacky use of gloss varnish on some parts (not obvious in pic) might have been an original idea. And thanks

Should I start posting in here? I probably should. I've been steadily pumping away at the figures I've got. I just got my Janissarie painted up and he's ready for dipping. I'll be doing that tomorrow night along with my two Zhanshis and a couple of Space Marines. I should hopefully have completed pictures of all three up by Friday night.

didn't come out quite as I liked in the pic, but looks AOK on the tabletop.
Should probably have started with "basic" stuff, but these are such fun to paint

Hey, these are looking nice...

A little bump for my Plog with some WIP if you like conversion stuff
ORCO and pin up yuan yuan :p

I finally got the pictures of my current work. Still need to add some, but meanwhile I'd already like some advice on this tiger soldier:

bit of a quickie paint job, but I was happy enough just to finally have the damn thing and no longer have to use something barely better than a cardboard token for my engineer anymore. Fething SW stuff took long enough to come in; much of it is sub-par, too. this one's quite nice, decent cast etc. so it'll see permanent use.

In the very, very unlikely case I'll ever want to spend the time on painting one up really well I'll still have a spare; bloody idiot I was for doubling up on, of all kickstarters, that one...

Finally have my Trauma Doc painted up, but it was kind of a rushjob and the face decided to work against me and come out like that.

Ah that looks cool Bolognesus, definitely think that fits in well with the Infinity style. Do you have the guy from Dead Space miniature as well? Just putting my one of those together, think he would make a good random engineer miniature as well.

Hmm, bit 'suited up' for a PanO engineer IMO. I was thinking it, and the doc with flamethrower and some acannerlike device in his lef hand (hackig device!) might make good Kamau. All suited up - they look like BTS -6 all right

All a matter of taste, though - and TBH I'm not much of a fan of deadspaceguy's sculpt anyway.

And while we're on the topic of Sedition Wars anway, I'll be using my 12 bone crabs as Pretas until I can get a bunch of Prodos's Aliens for that

Update to my Yu-Jing blog http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/477102.page

Yes I think I agree about the Deadspace sculpt Bolognesus, it's functional although a bit uninspired.

Have added a few new pics to my blog if anyone would care to rescue it from the 2nd/3rd page in a couple of hours!

I finally uploaded a picture of my little conversion. Please take a look and comment, because this one could use some advice too ^^

Here´s something from my newest project...I had to buy Mercs, fell in love with Kaplan, Druze and Scarface...

Those Mercs look awesome!

Those do indeed look awesome medusa!

Can you share how you paint that yellow?

It looks fantastic...

Thanks. It´s very simple. I just basecoated the helmet with Vallejo Game color Orange Fire, then washing it with thinned Army Painter Quick Shade Wash Dark Tone and layerd new Orange fire on it. Then I did some more layers mixing Vallejo Model Color Deep Yellow in about 5 layers on it using pure Yellow on the edges and the highest point of the helmet... So just three colors and some thin layers...

@medusa those Druze looks amazing looking forward to see the rest of the mercs.

Finally managed to finish painting the combat form of the Su Jian I have been working on now I just have to paint the mobility form to. I have posted some pictures of it on my painting log here.

Thanks. They are done now and I´m doing Kaplan...

Damn, yours turned out much nicer than mine did. I love how your Druze turned out, too. Nice job all around!

They are very nice - lovely smooth whites and blended colours

Excellent - thank you very much!

You´re welcome. Here´s some more Merc scum....



right now I´m working on scarface and his sister.

neyt update Scarface...

Scarface looks awesome. By far my favorite TAG, so it's good to see it painted well. Cordelia looks great too.

Agreed, that is very nice! Lovely blending with the green. And like the lighting effect with the eyes of the Kaplan!

Just got a load of my Deadzone stuff through the post, and thinking about how some of it can be used for Infinity...

I've just done my own scarface up.

Wasn't a fan of the hand-held pzf.

Wanted him to dual wield the Mk12s and have the pzf as a shoulder mounted launcher.

Started with this:


No base extension in the box. That's ok, I found a way to minimise his overhang. Wooden crate was a placeholder.

Now like this:

Wow.. have to say looking at the unpainted miniature it looked a little OTT, but the painted version looks rather awesome! You can fully imagine Scarface having the latest combat wetware that lets him target 3 enemies at once while making a cup of tea..

Looks great in that military-grade green, and like the blue lighting as well, contrasts really nicely.

It's his "come get some!" pose.

I figure he's bringing BOTH guns to bear on the one target - the guns held on an angle imply some movement.

Colours were VGCCayman green, VGC cold grey, GW badab black wash and VMC silver.

The blue was the only colour that really stood out against the green. It's a mix of GW Enchanted blue (old), Army painter crystal blue, and matt white (AP in this case, but it's more or less the same as VGC white.).

I'm not a fan of yellows (I don't believe Hi-Viz and combat gear should be used together) - I've still got to hit it with a brush on matt varnish to kill some of the shine left by the wash.
