Just wanted to show off my Yu Jing... buddy of mine painted these as I wanted them to be just pure awesomeness....I am not there as a painter yet, but hope to be someday soon!

They're looking good, hope you're gonna have fun playing with them.

Go Yu Jing!

They look great, really nice and bright colours!

Will you have a go at painting your own soon?

I actually started on these and they looked horrid! So I had my buddy strip them and start all over.... I wanted my Yu Jing to be to a great standard. Not what I could do. I will eventually do my own Yu but for now I will be practicing on other formats (WH40k) but the issue with that is the EPIC size compared to Infinity. I just need to sit down and get some good lessons on painting as I do not own a single artistic bone in my body

You don't really need lessons. There's methods that produce perfectly good tabletop quality models. The most common is 'magic wash', which is what I use on my models.

Basically, block in all of the main colours you want, then use a good, dark general wash on the entire model. Something like the Army Painter Inks.

Then go back over and re-layer the raised areas with the original colour, then do an edge highlight with a lighter colour.

It's always better to do the painting yourself. If you're not happy, give them to your friend to strip, but they do them yourself again. You'll learn a lot more by doing than reading how.

Looks good! Tell us how the games with them go too.
