We don't count special availability models(the WarCor Special Edition is literally only available to WarCors) when discussing the number of sculpts that exist.

FINALLY got my Blackjack today. Nomnomnomnomnom.

All these Warcors are in such a hurry.

I do like the new one, but did she need to bring her fidget spinner to the battlefield? (Yes, I know it's her camera drone)

Third one:





Though granted, you've probably never seen the special edition version.


I meant the second general release one, but sure. You're right.

On the subject of WarCors; what do people use for the drone? Was there supposed to be a base or something for it?

Not that I ever saw. A lot of people just used flying stands.

Makes sense; I just haven't found one that fits yet.

Ok, how is that drone being suspended? Is there a thin piece of metal, or is it just camera trickery?

Yeah, but is it separate, or is it attached to the main model's base?

Seperate, just a little hex flight base.

I glued my flightstand to the main model's base, because keeping the two models together was annoying and i couldn't magnetize the flight stand well.

So, looking at my Outrage minis and thinking "wow these guys are big" then placing them next to my Knight Models and Anima Tactics stuff...

Is Infinity a 35mm game now?

The scale jumped up a bit a couple years ago when they switched to digital sculpting

Sure, that was about half a head but the figs seemed quite happy between 30-32mm even with the jump. The two adult females from Outrage fit in nicely with BMG, Anima Tactics and Dark Age minis—all marketed as 35mm miniatures.

I've been looking to get into airbrushing etc... been paining with bristles like a caveman for too long.

Can anybody in the states weigh in to say if this is a worthwhile deal?
I'm really only interested in the 32mm tag pilot, so I'd primarily be buying for the paint set.

Obviously I need a compressor sold separately...


Well the airbrush in the set sells for $90 on it's own. The hose is probably $8-$10 depending on the length (EDIT: some sites are selling a hose for this with a quick connect at $25, if it's the same hose then the deal is much better). Cleaner is probably $5 (the cleaner will be cheaper in larger volumes so I'm estimating the price based off of that). Paints are $87 at $3 dollars a bottle (though I'm sure you can find them cheaper). so that's $188 if you bought them outside of the bundle. Not too bad to be honest, so the question is how much is the case worth to you?

I don't know if it's a good brush though. I've personally found the sub $100 brushes not really to be worth it outside of terrain base coating. But the Ultra supposed to have a .2mm nozzle which is around the size you want for miniatures.


Luxumbra airbrush finally arrived on my doorstep.
Now which of my many unpainted minis will be the first victims?
Anybody else get this kit along with their busts?

Is that a natural 21?

Hmmm, Cavemen were airbrushing too. Sort of.

Advice? Directly put: You'll need to practice with it. A lot. And learn to clean it properly. (very, very important.)

Last I heard from anyone at CB, he referred to Infinity as 32mm. Hellois? maybe, in one of the articles on the Infinity home page. But, let's not get into discussions of scale here.

Did we ever see a complete list of the January previews/February releases? Hospitallers and...

We never had a complete list of those. We wouldn't have them until January.

Apparently this is the list according to the new and (improved?) foros oficiales:

Bit & Kiss
Garuda Tactbots (BS)
Irmandinhos (CR)
Knight Hospitallers Box
Kuang Shi Box
Spektrs (Repack?)
Al Hawwa ' Unit (Repack)

Given the the Al Hawwa'' hacker is already in the QK sectorial starter box, I wonder what is going on.
