INFINITY MERCS: CSU, Corporate Security Unit

CSU, Corporate Security Unit

These ladies are very nicely sculpted indeed. The Operation Ice Storm Pre-Order Exclusive model is one of my favourites in the range and continues CB's penchant for saving their best minis for exclusive bundles.  The standard official CSU sculpt is such a simple but characterful mini.  I'm a huge fan of both of these lovely ladies. I painted both in dark grey suits so that they stand out as 'corporate,' with hints of red to tie them into my JSA.

I gave the standard CSU a Combi Rifle in lieu of the Shotty she comes with.  Actually the shotty was the main reason I got her in the first place as I wanted to use it on my Karakuri.  The combi was taken from one of the Ghulams in Operation Red Veil (I had to carve a new handle on it after I cut of the hand that was attached).  The best part about painting her was working on the pants as I enjoyed working natural light source into the folds.

My favourite part of  the limited edition CSU is her suitcase gun, which brings back memories of this iconic weapon as it appeared in Ghost in the Shell. These types of guns actually, mind-bogglingly, really exist but are very hard to aim, unsurprisingly.  I also love her legs, or rather the opportunity to paint stockings on them.  I painted and highlighted the legs as normal and then washed many glazes of brown and then black, both mixed with a Vallejo drying retarding medium.  It was a little painstaking but I am very pleased with the results.
