INFINITY YU JING INVINCIBLE ARMY: Zuyong Invincibles

Image
Zuyong Invincibles So these guys are the link team that is the backbone of the Invincible Army.  I wanted them to be yellow like the poster boys on the artworks and boxes. So the question was how could I make them a bit different to the studio collection?  After looking at yellow sci fi armours on the web, in the end I went with the Giraldez yellow palette but limited the other colours to black and glowing blue (There is a bit of white only on their shoulder emblems).  They kinda remind me of Transformer's Bumblebee crossed with Kill Bill's the Bride and I have to say I'm rather fond of this callback, given I'm a bit of a movie and toy buff. Anyway's its cool to have a totally power armored army to work on in Infinity. Multi Rifle This guy was the test model for the whole army, taken from the Red Veil Box. Boarding Shotgun This lil' lady was the first I painted in the army set but long after I did the test model, so it took me while to rem...

INFINITY YU JING INVINCIBLE ARMY: Army Starter Pack

Yu Jing Invincible army - Starter Pack So the die is cast. Yu Jing Invincibles are one of my planned projects for the first half 2020 (The 2nd half will be devoted to Defiance). This year I want to do some mini army projects, dabbling in some different factions so that I can work on different colour sets as well as paint up some of my favourite minis from the Infinity range. That said I don't plan on deviating too far from the canon faction colours as I want to have a go at all of the Infinity factions some day and like the fact that they all have their own colours to help them stand apart on the tabletop.  I was keen to paint a yellow army for the first time above all else so I began with the Invincible Starter Army Pack in January. For my own spin on this iconic army I dropped the green and went with grey and blue to complement the yellow better. Enjoying the project so far and I'm not forcing myself to go to hard into collecting the whole army, but just getting k...

INFINITY IKARI COMPANY ARMY

Ikari Company Army 2019 is done and dusted and these guys, my main painting project for the year, are finally finished.  Happy to see them in force and nice to see the different applications of blue, orange and white/grey that bind them as a coherent force rather than a hodgepodge of minis that make up a typical Merc army.  A couple of profiles are still missing but I'm in no hurry to fill them. Plus a number of units are reinforcements straight from my JSA that I may one day get and paint in dedicated Ikari colors. Happy NY and good luck with your infinity projects in 2020 - I'm looking forward to starting something new :-) JSA have joined the party You may notice Saito and Arslan lurking about where they shouldn't.  They are just waiting to hijack a bunch of troops for a Druze Sectorial Army (I only need a couple of additional troopers to make this happen...)
