Infinity Update

So I haven't updated this blog in a while, even though I've steadily been painting in the background. My intent is to post more pics, and post them more often, but sometimes the motivation is hard and forcing yourself to paint (I find) results in worse minis or making mistakes more often. 

I'm hoping that I can keep up the painting effort (currently about 1 mini a week), so we'll see how it goes. That should mean if I do a monthly update there's four painted minis, or maybe two painted minis if I get around to uploaded fortnightly. Hopefully this blog can serve as both motivation for me to keep painting, show off some of my work, and for me to keep a record of what I've painted. 

The last two months has been on Infinity, doing both terrain, scatter terrain and minis. There aren't any pictures of the terrain as it's just been base coated grey, so there's not much to see there. 

The scatter terrain was both easy and difficult to paint. The Nomad crates were simple enough, but the fuelling points reminded me why I dislike painting yellow so much. Either way, the scatter terrain colours should mix up the dull greys of the buildings. 

The Infinity minis have been a pleasant break from the rank and file Warhammer fantasy minis; it's a only a pity they've waited over three years to get some paint on them.... I'm working on paining my Merovingian Rapid Response Force first. Don't know what drew me to them as a sectorial force, but there was something there. Excluding the HVT I've painted six, which only leaves another ten to go..... I'm sure I'll get there eventually. Minis have names, because clearly that'll make them roll better during games. 

Anyway, enjoy the pics below.

New year, new post (2022 edition)

Well, somehow its 2022. No idea where the time has gone, I'm still mentally stuck in March 2020. Painting has been slow recently, but I ...
