Sweet paint jobs, guys. Totally makes me want to paint my own miniatures!

**Paradigm**

Grenzer and Aguacile, more angles in my gallery or blog:

**Casey's Law**

Do you stop to breathe in between producing these wonderful little gems?

**Dropbear Victim**

I love the way the light reflects slightly off Paradigm's female aguacile on the red leather. How do you get the semigloss sort of shine it seems to have. Is it carefully balanced varnish or semigloss paint?

Occasionally!

Cheers. I've now got it into my head that I can get the whole set done inside a week, so 6 more minis before Thursday night. Doable, I think!

Honestly, that'ls just highlighting up to a bright red, no gloss or varnish I'm afraid. I just add light grey into my reds as I highlight up, rather than white, so I get a brighter/softer red rather than a pink.

**SlaveToDorkness**

Got the red done on my buddy's Nomads last night. Which means I'm 80% done with them! Can't wait to get some shots, I'm really happy with the. Way Reapers reds go on.

**GrimDork**

^Hey now. I was wondering how I was supposed to do reds the 'proper way'... Now I've got to find a model who wants to be red, my corregedor dudes have already been promised to another color scheme.

Haha, exactly what I was going to say!

**ckig**

Paradigm your speedy painting has inspired me to get cracking on my own stuff (I'm still slow lol)

So here's my first alguacile from icestorm. Progress shots over on my blog.

**Paradigm**

Looks great!

Speaking of speed, I have 2.5 minis to go of Icestorm, and as of tonight I'll have had the set for a week. I'm fairly confident I can get them done within the self-imposed deadline, but won't have access to a camera until next week so can't show any of it.

**SlaveToDorkness**

I hate you, Paradigm.

Lol

**FacelessMage**

Dang.

This makes me want to post the stuff I have been working on for the last week.

I guess I will have to wait until I get home next week before I get a chance to take the shots and post them.

**GrimDork**

Looks great! I really like the rich black and red you've come up with, quite nice.

**MWHistorian**

This thread makes me sick with jealousy.
(Seriously though, great job and keep going!)

**PhantomViper**

Incredibly (bad) photo of part of my Aleph:

**Casey's Law**

Whoa they look sweet, would love to see more/better pictures.

Edit: Oh and I meant to say earlier.
@ckig: Got your blog lined up for a proper look at your stuff, just trying to catch up on so much right now in between shifts.

**carlos13th**

Those Aleph look good mate but the photos dont seem to do them justice.

**Pacific**

Those look great PhantomViper, would love to see some close-ups of them!

**Duce**

My factions

few models form each to show scheme.

**FacelessMage**

I found this picture while looking for some random infinity information.

I felt it was funny enough to share.

**-Loki-**

A noble endeavor, but poorly executed. They weren't very thorough. How did they miss this one?

**ckig**

Thanks guys! keep up the fine work. Duce what is that giant tub of minis?! : o

Thanks casey for adding me to the op. I forgot to fill your form thingy but you got it all down

Edit: That's a lot of booty..

**Pacific**

Haha that is brilliant FacelessMage

I'm going to wheel that out now for every new 'Which faction should I start with?!" thread

**PhantomViper**

Thanks guys, I'll try and get some decent photos / close-ups and post them here...

**carlos13th**

My girlfriend has pan o and is complaining about the lack of quality bums judging by this photo.

**Casey's Law**

Nice miniatures, Duce!

And that's hilarious FM, nice find.

I'm going to have to hold you to that!

**FacelessMage**

Glad to have contributed properly!

Maybe we can keep the image updated when new releases come out as a running joke?

So, it looks like I wasn't wrong to choose Haqqislam and Nomads.

**Spartan-Kun**

I chose JSA cause I love anime and ninjas. Nomads for the plot lol

**chromedog**

I got asked why I chose JSA and not one of the other variants of Yu-jing.

Ninja and Aragoto senkenbutai were why.
