Infinity WiPs

Afternoon guys and girls,

Its update time again. This week I have rotated back around to working on infinity, its actually the first time I've properly st down and worked on some infinity bits for a good few months.

I have 2 models to show though they are both still work in progress, first up is a Knight of Santiago:




This has been a joy to paint, though I had quite forgotten how fine the details are on the model. Still some way to go on him yet but give me a few evenings and he will be done.

Next up is a model that I've had for a long time. Back when I used to frequent the AmmoBunker forum Rasmus talked me into getting some infinity stuff to paint,I opted for the Yu Jing Imperial service sectorial starter box,

I didn't get too far with them due to being intimidated by the smaller scale, fast forward to the past few years where I got back into infinity all my effort poured into my Teutonic Knights. However this past week I dusted off a Celestial Guard and set about a test scheme:



Still a way to go on this guy and you can see the sculpt showing its age with the rather large gun. I've tried to go for a very dark and sinister scheme on them given they are basically secret police, so its a very dark jade green building up to the edge highlights.

Here he is compared to the original scheme I painted what must be 4 or more years back:



Quite an improvement to my eyes, the old scheme was too busy and the paint too lumpy. Needless to say he will be being stripped and repainted in the newer scheme.

Anyway thats it for now, I'll be back next week with these pair hopefully finished and possibly a few more bits to show :)

  1. Looking good Si, I especially like your secret police ninja dude. The colour scheme is great, colourful while also sinister and not at all garish. Two thumbs up!

  2. The CG looks great. Can't wait to see what else you get painted up.

  3. Somehow managed to forget to comment on this when I saw it, but great work mate. The brown rifle is a nice idea, good contrast to the dark model without taking over visually.
