Very nice. The pink is an intresting choice. It does need some other colors to break up the red though.

Nice to see some paint going on, didn't realise just how thin those models are, feel like I'm nearly breaking it by looking.

Good stuff so far, I look forward to seeing how you get on with the bases, its something I struggle with!

Red bases.

Pink models.

How you like my thunder?

Et tu, Gitsplitta?

What is that pink, btw?

Check out Vallejo Old Rose.

Made some good progress on the rest of the squad last night. I'm trying to simplify the painting process as I look down the line to scads of rangers & vanguard. So far, so good. Should have a pic for you tonight.

Standard rules, pics or didn't happen?

'SNAP'... Well done SMJ.

Sorry guys, late night last night & gaming tonight. I'll have some pics for you by Friday at the latest. Imagine the squad will be nearly done by then.

Good luck tonight.. You bringing the boys?

Not tonight. Still tweaking my MW/GK list. I think I have something that's pretty decent. Not comparable to a true "competitive" list, but far more competitive than the fluffy drek I usually like fielding.

Do tell!

Wrong blog, ask me on my SM blog...

Very nice so far Gits.
Highlighting in pink is an interesting choice, but it works! Red/orange does get a bit boring after a while when everyone does it...

Your reference to 'gaming tonight' using ' my MW/GK list' is on this blog.. It's all blurring into one giant blog..

Good luck tonight.. Look forward to the battle assessment!

I often use pink (more accurately, the base red with added white) to highlight red. Sometimes I do use orange. It just depends on how I want the red to look in the end.

In fact, the BA Terminators I painted recently were highlighted with a mix of red, white and yellow. Was a sort of "salmon" colour. Not good for large areas, but worked well for highlights that were not as cold as pink, but not as warm as orange.

Getting close now. I'm happy with the basing. Just need to do the tazer gode and a few odds & ends.

Looking very nice Gits, I like the basing.

Whats a tazer gode?

now that looks beautiful!...what´s the middle flower object made from? snow flocks? that´s a basing design even fitting for the missus on mothers day ... no honestly... it looks like a sharp contrast between brutality and beauty and calmness...

The thing in his right hand.

That's exactly what I was going for Vik. It's actually the same type of thing as those large tufts of grass (which are brilliant)... except that it has little bits of color on top that make it look like a flowering plant. Made by Army Painter and available at your local hobby retailer (unless it happens to be a GW store... then your just screwed).

i love dry humour...

well... if i ever have such a project where something might be appropriate...thanks for the hint matey!

First Infiltrator is finished. The rest aren't far behind. I'll adjust the basing material (gravel, not the plants) just a bit. Very happy with him.

glow looks perfect! a whole army of that done like that...aesthetically cool!

That glow effect is really amazing Git's, I wish I could paint glow effects like that.

Nice looking death cyborg murder machine. With a floral base. I need to pick up some of those flowers myself. The plan is to base my Eldar defending a maiden world, and that’s the kind of detail and mood I’m trying to capture. Not every battlefield has been churned into mud and ash yet, particularly when the infiltrators are just arriving.

Looks awesome! Really digging the glowing weapon!

Fantastic infiltrator, the cattleprod looks great

Great work, Gits'. Nice work on the base and the cattle-prod...

...that reminds me of this (beware, toilet humour):


What grass type stuff do you use on your bases anyway, it always looks so lush?

Infiltrator squad #1 is finished! Might have a couple of extra final touches but I'm happy with them for now. I opted out of the bright red cloak for the alpha because it made no sense at all for a stealth-based squad. Hope you like them!



Feel free to comment and vote. Be nice to see some AdMech up on the Gallery page!

Oh.. shiny looking squad! Off to voting, sah!

By the way, very nice backdrop there...selfmade?

Nice start Git, subbed and looking forward to more.

Really nice, liking the Glow sticks. Bases are spot on as always!
