To Infinity, and beyond!

Starter box reunion.

I finally finished off my first set of Infinity dudes & dudettes. I wasn’t super happy with the test model, but now with the whole squad done and bases finished I’m stoked about this scheme and style. Looks good, not at all like my 40k models, fast to do.

Colors are exactly the same as the test model:

• Primer: Army Painter spray white
• Armor & Head: Averland Sunset x2, wash with Casandora Yellow
• Body: Ceramite White; pick out pads, holsters, and straps with Dheneb Stone; buckles with Leadbelcher; wash with Seraphim Sepia
• Gun: Midnight Blue, pick out cartidges and barrels with Leadbelcher, wash with Nuln Oil
• Visor: Midnight Blue, Enchanted Blue centerline
• Base terrain: P3 Ordic Olive, flocked and shrubbed, washed with Athonian Camoshade
• Base rim: Abaddon Black

The Casandora Yellow shade/wash on the cloaks is kind of tricky to work with over the Averland Sunset. You either wind up with too much and it pools all over the place, or not nearly enough and it’s barely visible. Definitely more subtle and less clingy than the darker GW shades like Seraphim Sepia, Agrax Earthshade, or Nuln Oil. For example, the sniper has a neat detail on the interior of the cloak, where it’s made out of hexes. Given that it was the interior and could be darker I hit that with Agrax Earthshade as well to emphasize the detail a bit more, though it’s still not very prominent.

By and large I am definitely not up to the level of detail on these models, or at least it would take me extreme amounts of time and frustration to really match it. For example, the eyes actually have very distinct shaping to them. It’s so faint though that you can easily unintentionally or intentionally blow through it and paint over the recess, which is I what I did here, consciously, to make a single visor look. The models do still look amazing though if you just pick out some details and match up a good wash.
